    I find it ironic that you used a picture of the new crap multi-coloured Daleks...

    This thread started as a thread for showing the nerdy things you do. Imma gonna do that.

    I'm the video guy behind the Irish FG vids and soon their streams.

    In this video, the DooM makes several actual guest appearances (interesting fact- there's no post work on this video, all the overlays and transitions are done live and on the fly!)

    What sort of setup do you have for all that Doomy? Planning on X-Stream for your streaming stuff? Seems to be the weapon of choice for the Starcraft casters.

    I use xsplit (which I think you mean) with a hauppage HD PVR for capture (not needed for direct capture from a screen) and use an 8 channel desk for commentary. I have a component splitter I use to set up multiple screens for spectators to watch.


  • Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators Posts: 28,633 Mod ✭✭✭✭Shiminay


    *derp* Yea, X-Split is what I meant :)

    Sounds like a great set up, I must come down to one of ye're events and see it all in action. Gotta support your local e-Sports scene! I'd love to do commentary on games for a laugh, but I never know enough about them :)

    Yeah sure, if you want me to show you how it's done I'd love to some time.

    Interesting factoid- in recent times there's been a huge split between "esports" and the FGC (Fighting Game Community). A lot of e sports events have come to represent the opposite of how FG events are (paid spectation, treating top players like they're stars, stuff like that). While still professional you won't see trailers building up players and the like on FG streams. It's like FG streams are BBC and esports are Sky :D And now, MLG have a fighting game tournament on the same day as an FG major...

    Personally, I don't like the velvet curtain. I've met (and in some cases played) some of the literal best FG players in the world, including a couple of world champions. I can enter Evo if I like and it's not invitation only. I think both sides have stuff to learn from the other.

    100% agree with you Doomy, I think we should have a chat about it at the beers :D I watch a ton of Starcraft stuff and I think they're about 75% there in terms of how it should be presented and showcased and they're always improving. I just don't know enough about the FG scene to know where it is, but who doesn't love watching a close SF match up? :D

    Only a fool, that's who :)

    The main difference is money tbh- FG's are smaller because there's less, but you are correct, a discussion for another time!
