Note: This topic depends on your feedback! Feel free to use ideas from the list below if one sounds good to you. Please, if you have an idea, even if you don’t know if it would work or if anybody would watch it, please post it below! Your feedback will be added to the main post where it will (hopefully) inspire future aspiring youtubers, make them more successful, and improve the landscape of youtube as a whole. So, please share!
This has been a topic of interest for me for a long time, and I'd like to hear your opinions. But first, a disclaimer. I don't run a youtube channel, much less a popular one. I don't have any degree in sociology or anything, and my observations aren't guaranteed to be correct or even possible. This isn't an ad for a recruiting youtube channel, nor do I plan to start one.
That done, let's talk youtube. This topic is a brainstorm: Below, post any wacky ideas you have, even if you think they might be bad: Don’t be shy!
Basically, the problem with most Let’s Plays I see in this section is that they are the same old same old. Youtube says there are About 17,500,000 results for Minecraft, and About 4,510 results for “Vanilla Minecraft Let’s Play Part 1” in the last 24 hours. It seems to me that the most successful youtubers are the ones who do something that isn’t just the normal vanilla minecraft let’s play.
Now, let’s look at something more original. There are probably about 100 results for “Minecraft ICBM Mod War”, “Minecraft Cold War”, and “Minecraft Nuclear War” combined in the past week. Only about half are actually anywhere near what I’m searching for. There are probably a ton of duplicates too. Not much competition, but tons of demand.
And without further ado, I give you my big list. I hope this gets longer as time goes on, with your feedback!
- Modded server series featuring a storyline about an alien invasion and Minecraftia's desperate attempts to rally and defend itself. - A sky-pirate series using Metaworlds or archimedes’s ships or such with a crew of pirates taking on other vessels. Could be a storyline or a pvp map series. - A fake "company" in FTB. Each video would be advertising a specific product, from nuclear missile turtles to floating castles. - Two teams, ICBM mod installed. Cold war ensues. (The finale of that series will be fun) - Recreate popular games in Minecraft maps, from temple run to Skyrim. - Recreate battles in history using minecraft as a medium. - PVP battles on arenas you or your friends have made. Obviously don’t just play others maps, make your own! - Pig Grand Prix: Each episode, some players get together to do a new course of pig racing. From rainbow-road-esque highways to the nether, get your pig to the finish first. - A spy movie in minecraft. You could really take this any way you want, but if you had maybe 5 people to play the bad guys, you could do something really awesome with grappling hooks and air ducts.
-More will be added later. Has an idea worked for you? Got an idea you are just itching to see created? Post it below and I'll add it here!
