PART 2 - Getting settled in

I am going to attempt to record the entire State of Decay campaign from the start. Note, in addition to the normal audio scratching that occurs at the 5 minute and 30 minute mark (the notice for that is below), this is the second recorded game using my Xbox gamepad...and it's pretty loud. My headset mic picks up every click and clack. The first three videos were recorded before I went back and listened to the audio, I will be making adjustments...just note that the audio in the first three will be full of extra sounds in background. My apologies.

[[AUDIO DISTORTION NOTICE: I am posting this notice in all of the videos I have posted thus far, as it has been a persistent issue in all of my video posts. I use Xbox Game Bar to record my gameplay videos. While recording them, everything sounds fine on my end. But when I listen to the playbacks, there is always an audio distortion (scratchy sound) in the in-game audio (both sound effects and music) at the 5 minute point (give or take) of every video. My voice in the microphone sounds fine, but the in-game audio gets distorted for a few minutes, then it goes away. In longer videos, it happens again after the 30 minute mark (and just before the 60 minute mark), and once again, lasts for a few minutes then goes away. I have spent most of a day searching online for a solution, and have not yet found one that works, if you know what is causing this issue, please comment below; until I get it fixed, I will continue to post videos with this glitch, as it only lasts for a few minutes, it's not a big enough bother to not post videos, but I would love to get a solution. If I turn off all game audio, it would also fix the issue, but I WANT the game play audio in my posts.]]

Having not gotten a solution to the audio issues, I am switching to OBS. This video is the second of the final three using the Xbox Game Bar; after that, the audio quality will improve, or at the very least, not be distorted. IF in the future, anyone does have a solution to my audio problems with the Xbox Game Bar, PLEASE share them with me in comments. I like using it to record my videos, it's simpler, has far less overhead, and some quality of life features that OBS doesn't have, I would rather record using Xbox...but this sound issue is a deal breaker.
