The Pit People pc beta is finally here!
So far it is more than I ever even hoped it could be. There is just SO MUCH content to be discovered!
Here is the first part of my own LP of the game.

Has anyone else had a chance to poke around in it?
What do you like/dislike so far?
GAH!
I know you're not looking for a critique on your channel but I really need to put my two cents in.
That intro is channeling way too much of a Game Grumps vibe. And that comes off as awkward when you're doing a one-man LP. I haven't really looked at your page but if you don't normally do LPs with a buddy, then you should consider making a new intro video.
A rule of thumb for LPing (or at least my personal preference) is that you shouldn't put in a facecam unless it's necessary for the LP. You're not streaming and this isn't a horror game, so you don't need a facecam. It's distracting to the game. Even moreso when the facecam screen doesn't stay in one spot for the entire video.

I don't mind the feedback!

The channel was very much Game Grumps influenced. And it started out as only videos with 2 or more people. "Graeme Games" that you see above is a recent spin off of that. And the current intro is really just a re-skin of the 2 person intro. I have been meaning to make something new. Maybe I'll hammer that out today?

I used to agree with you 100%
The first time I used Facecam was for a horror game. Then I shelved it again until I played a rage-inducing game.
After using it a handful of times though, I started to change my mind. I was having fun using it, because I felt like I was talking to the audience rather than just to myself!
I am still playing around with it, but I am leaning towards keeping it around in solo LPs.
Thanks for taking the time to give some feedback. I appreciate it!
GAH!
