D&D General If I streamed myself opening a case of D&D miniatures, would you watch?

Obviously there is a market for unboxing videos, but im not sure how much that overlaps with this particular demographic. It's certainly not my thing, but if it nets you more views/followers/revenue then who am I to judge?

I kind of watch toy and mtg unboxings. So some kind of overlap on my part?

If it happened to happen when I was available and I got an alert and it was unboxing something I was interested in and I knew the unboxer (or had some association like these boards with them) there is a 50% chance I'd peek in.

Just letting you know that the video is unavailable and showing you the error I get. If you want people to give you feedback you'll have to fix the technical issue.

I didn't make any video yet. I assume the "error" was my previous stream VoD which is probably over 2 weeks old is no longer on the Twitch website. That video is unrelated to opening miniature boxes, it was me eating the World's Most Sour Candy and reviewing it.

Unboxing videos aren't normally my thing, but I might watch it to get a look at what the miniatures look like in real life, which can be difficult to judge from the carefully curated photos posted by the folks that sell 'em.

If it was someone I'd seen a lot of content from, who I liked and enjoyed watching, sure, I'd probably enjoy seeing their reaction to unboxing something that means a lot to them, even if it didn't mean much to me.

But someone I know nothing about? No, even if it was a product I was interested in, it wouldn't do much for me.

Is unboxing like watching Muhammad Ali in reverse?

 

[Jacob Lewis]

I didn't see a poll for the question being asked so I'm just going to leave my "No" here. Hope it helps!

More seriously, I know there's a huge audience for this sort of thing, just probably not much among EN Worlder posters. Not sure the best place to advertise something like that, though. You could just give it a shot, and see how popular it is. Would you record the stream? It might help if you save them so people can see your show and style without necessarily being online at the exact time you are.
I think it's a great idea, if you're really into it, so... Good luck!

I plan on transferring the VoDs over to YouTube after I am done streaming. Some streams I save, some I don't. I feel unboxing a mini brick is one to save, just to help my growth.

I really hope to get some sweet miniatures!

I know this set is a bit older, but my wife bought it for me for my birthday, which is in a few days. So, if I do an unboxing, it will be of this set first.
