Hello Gamers! As soon as I read about the contest I wanted to participate as it's a lot of funny and opens up a world of possibilities. In my case, what I want is something that maybe it's simple for many people but personally I find it very important, without further ado, I'll start with the content for the contest:
Honestly I haven't had a good year due to the pandemic and the family and friends I lost because of it, however, it's not all bad and this year I was finally able to start something I've wanted to do for a long time: Make Gameplays!
Making gameplays helps me to distract my mind, connects me with other gamers and makes me happy since playing videogames is almost a lifestyle for me.
My pc is more than 15 years old since my parents bought it for me (the best gift I have ever received), and yes, you read that right, more than 15 years and although I have changed elements like the monitor, the speakers, the mouse, the keyboard, and the hard disk, I have not been able to put video and sound cards in it.
For this reason my computer can not process more current games of which I want to make gameplays and that I already played but on consoles at home of some friends or cousins. Its capacity is limited in every sense and although I love the old Sakura (that's the name of my pc) I know that it's time to change it.
This is why I'm writing to Santa, because my biggest Christmas wish... all I want for Christmas is a new pc with the necessary resources to be able to play all the games I want, and to be able to make my gameplays without worrying if the game I want to bring you can be played or not, and having to do a thousand tests before I commit to upload it.
I would like not to have to delete the games that I already uploaded to be able to add new ones, I would like to be able to keep them all, I would also like not to have to worry about the graphics and characteristics of the games because if they are too advanced my pc will not be able to process them.
I also want equipment to record my gameplays. Literally now I have no microphone, so while I play, I have to record my voice with my cell phone in real time to capture the moment in real time and then I have to add the audio to the video capture in editing and also I should delete the silences since there is static noise (something that microphones avoid) and I want my gameplays (within my limitations) to be as neat as possible.
Also with a better computer, I would also have a better editor that allows me to separate the background audio from my voice so I don't have to record in the wee hours of the morning haha. The street from my house is "the street of noises" (so we named it that way at home) so to avoid background noises, I should record at 2 am to ensure a good job as much as possible.
It may sound like my requests come with a lot of complaints haha but no, I simply explain my situation and all the odyssey that means for me to record a 30 or 40 minutes gameplay, however, what I most enjoy doing in Hive are the gameplays and I don't care about all the work behind it (even subtitling them in English since my native language is Spanish and I record in that language), none of these problems or obstacles prevent me from enjoying what I love the most.
I't complicated, yes, quite a lot, but I still enjoy with my soul making gameplays, watching their comments and amusing them for a while. I'm not the best gamer ever, I'm just a clumsy who loves to play and share it with other fans of the videogames.
Thank you Santa for reading my letter and I hope my new pc and microphone will be under my Christmas tree tomorrow. Best regards... Bethyjade.
Well, that was it for my participation. The truth is that I got so excited with the idea that I wanted to participate immediately.
Thank you very much to the community for this opportunity as these ideas make us all share experiences together. I really had too much fun doing this.
