Buy a microphone, good or not, it's better than nothing! Can you think of any gamer who has over 100k subscribers (and particularly does gaming videos) who doesn't speak in his/her videos?

Go to laughing school, after you pass, you may continue to the next step. But seriously, practice a regular laugh - not something over the roof that is straight out bizarre and loud. Something pretty medium noise level genuine laugh.

Download a good recording software such as Hypercam, Fraps, Bandicam, or Camtasia. If you are looking for a free recorder that accepts voice and face cam, try Ezvid.

In Minecraft, do not build a horrible house (except if you're just kidding around). Expand your house. Make traps. Maybe trap a friend to cause a hilarious reaction.

A buddy will support you and not make you feel alone and worried. Make sure it's a good friend, or you might get worried, freak out, hyperventilation, or completely uncomfortable.

You can tell jokes that are meant to be bad jokes, though. So if you tell a bad joke, hope the audience thinks that you're kidding around. Speak funnily after that and they would. Do that after every joke. Every joke is meant to be a joke.

Be funny when a creeper is around. He blew up your house? Do a stupid crying, whining noise to emphasize it.

The audience of people who may be watching you will not understand the vocabulary you are giving them, so stay with mainstream words.

Repeating yourself isn't really interesting, as all your content will look the same, it will definitely decrease popularity level. Be sure to be confident in your videos and speak clearly to the microphone so the people watching can understand and you yourself could when you go back and edit the video.

Question

What can I do if I don't have a microphone?

Community Answer

You can always record your video first, then use a video editor to add text dialogue. Be careful of where you add the dialogue, however; you don't want to obscure any important parts of your game play.

Question

Will I get good reviews?

Community Answer

Not always, unfortunately. If someone makes inappropriate comments, just ignore or report them. You may get some harsh comments that are meant as feedback, just take them in stride.

Question

What if I have a disorder of stuttering?

Community Answer

Tell your viewers. Most of them will be sympathetic to you, but some will still hate.

Don't think about getting rich, think about making good videos. Being a Minecraft YouTuber is all about patience and truly enjoying the game. If you don't get popular immediately, don't worry. Rome wasn't built in a day.

Don't have too long of gaps in commentary. People may get bored and leave, especially if you're just sitting around.
