Question for those who watch Let's Plays from streams. Do you prefer the edited versions keeping the highlights? Or the whole uncut versions? Trying to decide on doing more full playthrough of games on stream, but want to put them up on YouTube afterwards.
@stevesaylor I feel like these are different products for different audiences on YouTube. Not an either-or thing. Like if someone was doing full playthroughs on Twitch, I would assume there would be a full-play archive on their YouTube regardless of if there's an edited version.
@stevesaylor I follow a channel that does both. I think it depends on the game. Some I watch full playthroughs but some games I just want to watch highlights of.
@stevesaylor I would say both, honestly. The full is great if you want to re-watch the thing, the edited is great for quick consumption and maybe soft marketing as well.
@stevesaylor The way this poll is going you may not get any clear direction!
@stevesaylor i like to treat lets plays as podcasts in some ways.. plus i think unedited helps communicate what its like to play disabled, and might take longer than everyone else
