One of the most frustrating things about being a small YouTuber and editing everything yourself 😭
I started playing The Witcher right when the hype started, but my video will probably come out a week later because I still have HOURS of footage to edit.
Meanwhile everyone already has their videos up and I’m just sitting in editing like 🧍♀️
I’m planning to start creating gaming content soon. My plan is to do livestreams as well as edited videos/highlights, but I’m still trying to figure out which games I should focus on.
I’m mainly looking for PC games that have an active audience and still have potential for a small/new creator to grow. I know the biggest games have huge audiences but they also have tons of competition, so I’m wondering if there are any games that strike a good balance between audience size and discoverability.
I’m open to pretty much any genre FPS, survival, horror, co-op, competitive, sandbox, story games, etc.
What PC games would you recommend for someone starting a gaming channel in 2026?
And if possible, tell me whether you think the game is better for livestreaming, edited videos or both.
Would appreciate any suggestions or advice from people who have experience with gaming content creation.
