To even have a chance of being noticed isn't easy enough. It's not a problem to make games videos to have fun, shits, and giggles, but if are serious about gaining a following be prepared to work very to achieve something that might not ever happen.

I'm now 3+ years old with my own channel, by the way yet to reach an monetizing stage. There have been many moments when I was tempted to stop. It would be a major injustice to those who have stood by me. It makes me feel like I'm obligated to go on. Even with my mediocre position, I'm still loved by quite a few people. That's which is a great reward.
