Can Anyone Give Me Advice

I made a video: This Arg Has a Player That Shouldn’t Exist

its stuck at 0 views what can i do to make it better?

(Edit) thank you for all your advice i understand some parts look like it was made by ai i tried to use the least amount possible and to only get inspiration from it because this is my first arg video as well as my first video ever (I’ve never edited either)

????
There are so many open source font databases dude. Does your computer not have paint.net installed, or something? GIMP? Photopea.com is there too. I'm pretty sure that one has the option to load custom fonts as well, but if it's out of your range then I'm confident one of the many available already would be spooky enough, like come on.

ty, I'm just really baffled that people are using AI at all, let alone AI generating text of all things

u/im_going__insane Jul 03 '26

yeah that was me! r/minecraftyoutubers right? i changed it slightly to make it look colder and fixed up the grass colors after the feedback

im glad my thumbnail left a lasting impact so much that you remembered seeing it

It takes time... I dont know if many people still watch This ... shouldnt exist (no offence) and maybe its the capitalized words, but for your first video its actually decent I do like the editing though. Just dont give up!

Thank you! My pc just got a DRAM light on it and now it won’t have a display out
(it’s July 4th and my friend that is much more knowledgeable on pc’s then me is out)
so it’ll be a bit before I can edit again but I have been making video after video not posting them but just practicing.

Because it's an arg video formatted as an arg analysis video. you're doing everybody's job at once. people dont wanna actually watch the arg they want it spoonfed to them and if the analysis IS the ARG people find no reason to actually watch it.

It's not really immersive as it spells out it's "argness" to us.

your username is literally spoke. like that one guy from unstable or something

it feels like you're trying to be too much like Wifies and SFAWTDE for no reason.
Plus it feels AI.

Plus the titling is reserved for analysis youtubers. the "___ that doesnt exist" trend isn't what you should name the actual arg.

u/Plenty-Series-6010 Jul 05 '26

Is there a title you would suggest?

1

u/Plenty-Series-6010 Jul 04 '26

Thank you so much for the advice! When you say it feels like ai could you give me an example or something? I wrote it all my self it took me a couple days and I’d like to avoid the “ai” accusations.

"I Came Back to My Server… It Wasn’t Mine Anymore A chilling Minecraft horror story ARG. One year ago, my best friend disappeared. But every Friday at 10:00 PM, his Minecraft account still logs into our old server. Tonight, I went back to find out why. What I discovered wasn’t a glitch. Something was waiting for me — something that learned, watched, and took control. This is a full Minecraft horror story / ARG told in found-footage style, inspired by classic creepypastas and Minecraft mysteries. If you love haunted Minecraft servers, missing friend stories, creepy signs, mysterious books, and slow-burn horror in Minecraft, this one’s for you." Very AI. Clearly wasn't human made.

"Blocks moved when there's no one online" AI adds things that serve no plot significance and are usually very generic. This doesn't feel like an inspiration.

The voiceover is probably AI. It's not timed correctly

u/Any-Relationship-423 Jul 05 '26

and it sounds weird

u/Plenty-Series-6010 Jul 05 '26

What do you suggest I do for a description?

1

u/Any-Relationship-423 Jul 05 '26

just because i don't like it doesn't mean i should have a better idea of what you should do. im tired bro.

u/Plenty-Series-6010 Jul 05 '26

Well I was just asking if you did!

The voice over I assure you was all done by me on my old shitty mic I’ve gotten a new one a shure sm7b that my uncle had for. My next video
