Do I need to use a capture card to record gameplay? I don’t own one, and I am pretty sure they are expensive.

You can find good capture cards for considerable cheap prices (where I come from, you can get a good one for $30), but no you don't need to have a capture card to record the gameplay. Get a phone, iPad, camcorder, webcam, just as long as the mods can clearly see the game and you can get the video on the youtubes.

@Cmdr where are you getting the capture cards at $30?

Yeah, I'd like to know where you can get one for 30 bucks. The ones of decent quality are waaay more expensive

The one i have rn is $200ish. I think $180.

Yes, elgato's standard ones are $180. I would like to know which ones are $30. Are you thinking of the wires to record from CRT's?

My Elgato was almost $300 (in canada)

Not with computer software like OBS, you would need a physical camera to record it
