It may seem like being a “Let’s Player” on YouTube is the easiest job in the world. All you have to do is record yourself playing videos games and talking about them, right Though that’s certainly a big part of it, there’s a more intricate process that goes into the making of these videos. Mark Fischbach, aka Markiplier on YouTube, talked to Rhett & Link about what “Let’s Playing” really entails on Ear Biscuits.
Fischbach may have a more demanding schedule than other Let’s Players on YouTube since he puts out two videos a day, seven days a week. His release times for roughly the past year have been 8am and 12pm, meaning he has to rise early to get the videos prepped and uploaded on time. Fischbach tends not make videos in advance, so he’s literally playing games every day, editing and polishing as he goes.
