Almost 5 years

For the first four plus years everything I did was just straight up Walkthrough's. Also, I was heavily involved with a Gaming website for the majority of those first four years. I met many people and made many friends. Most important of all my Girlfriend. To have that endeavor come to the abrupt disappointing and disgusting end that it was is a shame. It also hurt us. (My friends and I) Some more than others as our commitment to it lessened our commitment to our youtube channels for a long while. There's one important constant that needs to always be remembered. The fact that there are incompetent, unethical, dishonest, distrustful and disloyal snakes out there who take advantage and sponge off of people's hard work. They are incapable of having any sort of people skills which will undoubtedly cause trouble in any type of business venture. This is a fact that applies to everything in life. Despite all the bad I wouldn't have changed any of my decision's in the past four years. More good gained than left bad. No doubt!

The past several months I've begun to change. Not the way I do walkthrough's. Although my equipment and quality has come a long way... The type of content I put up. I like to post vids about my other interests now. I'm not too sure why I never mainstreamed myself more or put my face out there before now but I'm enjoying it and I have a lot of ideas I'd like to explore. I'd certainly like to do more and more camera type projects in near future.

Like it or not, the video game walkthrough scene has become a form of business for people and it's caused many to have to change or rethink the way they put out videos and content. Partnerships are handed out like candy and the Youtube gaming community has become saturated with too much content and competition. That's just the way it is. That's the way it's going to be for for awhile. You never know what changes could happen in the future though. If things change for the worse a lot of the same people wouldn't be putting out content at all.

Many people just have a passion for games and making videos to inform and entertain. People who have been doing it for a short or long time. There are a lot of other people who enjoy playing games and like making gaming videos sure. Problem is they don't really care as it's played in an uncaring manner and a lot of content is put out quickly because it's good for their own business. Fair game? It's all about new releases and no one will deny wanting to get a game out before anyone else.

Some people care, some people don't. Some people race, some go at their own pace. I fall somewhere in the middle. Also, I of course believe everyone has the right to upload videos onto youtube in whatever category they fall. In the end I am having fun and excited with the direction I'm taking my channel. I've been doing this for almost five years and these last few months have had the most changes for me so far. So the future of DavetheUsher is looking good and I'll always love my fanbase.

Yeah I know. Went on a rant or two again.
