Recently I got asked something like this so let me get it out of the way now - DO NOT ask me to give you the full version of any of the games I play for these. If a game is freeware I'll have the link to get it in the video's description - if it's not freeware you'll just be told so. (I may tell you if it's still being sold by an actual company though.)
And if I spot any comments stating where to download full versions of non-freeware games - even abandonware? Any such comments will be removed, the first time you'll be warned, then the second time you'll be blocked from the channel.
Q: How do you record all of this?
A: I divert output to a TV and simply record with a DVD recorder from there. Then I use DGMPGDec to split the audio from the video and encode both separately in meGUI. Audio commentaries done with Audacity.
Q: Do you ever respond to comments?
A: Sure, when I feel like it. Don't expect me to answer everyone's comments.

Peace,
nub
One piece of advice: when selecting any of my videos or favorites, you want to open your chosen video in a new tab (or a new window, if your browser somehow doesn't allow separate tabs) rather than bring up the player. Playlists you can't do this, I'm afraid, but the videos inside a playlist I think you can.
I'm not really enjoying the new channel layouts, but I'd rather have this than see YouTube shut down due to too much expense (especially considering tiny channels like mine would be the first on the chopping block). I don't see a suggestion box anywhere or else I'd have a few to add.
Blood: I'm going to try recording footage in DOSBox before I go too much farther. If it works, expect the pace to pick up a little.
Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: I'm putting this on hold until Blood is completed.
Neverwinter Nights: Still working on the speedrun, but afterwards I'm retiring my old discs and doing stuff with Diamond edition content (and possibly taking module requests).
Dungeons of the Unforgiven: I haven't forgotten this one, but the start of the game is very difficult for me on the higher difficulty, so I haven't succeeded in anything yet. If I get anything the videos will be on a 'when I feel like it' basis.
Also getting back into multiplayer games other than World of Warcraft. Though on that note, if anyone sees a video involving some sort of band in the Blackrock Depths instance, can they link it for me?
I've managed to get rid of that virus I was talking about - thanks to SUPERAntiSpyware. This means I will be recording again - I actually have Blood part 13 recorded, so late tonight or early tomorrow I'll record Blood part 14 plus continue that Pokemon Mystery Dungeon playthrough.
I'm also going to post footage of the arcade game Black Tiger so I can get it evaluated by SDA, and I may even start working on a speedrun of Neverwinter Nights (with no patches or expansions) because I want to get the diamond edition of it (mainly for the extra bonuses, but I also lost my Shadows of Undrentide key) and the gold edition of NWN2 pretty soon (the former I've found in some stores, but the latter I'll have to buy online I believe) but I won't feel right getting them without knowing there's a speedrun of NWN on SDA.
My main recording computer contracted a virus recently, and I've been trying to fight it to no success. Three programs' searches failed to find anything, and when I finally did find something, any attempt to delete it was futile - any parts deleted, even registry keys, would recreate within two seconds. This virus also completely interferes with my main computer's ability to browse the internet, whether IE or Firefox (online gaming for some reason is not affected). (It used to pop-up random Internet sites but one thing I downloaded is actively blocking that.)
So I post from my Linux laptop to state that it's likely that any further video posting (such as part 13 of the Blood playthrough) will be suspended until I can fix it.

I am still alive and well, but battling my World of Warcraft addiction, and I also had a very loaded work schedule over the past month. So all my stuff here was shoved to the back burner. I hope to have something new by this weekend.
P.S.
1) If you want to play against me multiplayer, you can either let me know on this comment wall or in my inbox. If you want it recorded for YouTube let me know that when arranging the match.
2) I made a decision regarding Dungeons of the Unforgiven. I WILL turn that into a full playthrough. However, I need a decision to be made first. Priest or Mage? Will not be considering other classes for various reasons.
