so it would then work as a reference material rather than being some hipster bullshit to show people how obscure your gaming portfolio is.
Yeah it's a challenge to find an un-lp'd game. I'm actually thinking of doing lp's of indie games and obscured ones.

Basically this. I really really don't reccomend you do LPs blind. And if you insist on that; do them with someone you know who knows the game better; so when you start flagging, the pace can be kept. Not everyone's great at doing solo commentary, either.
Though for what it's worth, your AV seems to be perfectly fine; which is a level above most Youtube LPs. Now work on making your videos either funny or informative.
Thanks. What's 'AV'? lol. Also what do you mean by doing LP's 'blind'.

AV I'm assuming is audio/video quality. A blind LP is when someone does an LP of a game they have never played and have no experience with. While I think that in some cases doing things blindly can be entertaining, if the player just has no idea what they're doing and takes too long to figure things out and progress, the LP suffers.

in most arcade games this bears no impact due the fact you can simply add more credits until you finally beat the game.
