Fair use and Copyright strikes...

[FlareWolf]

So i'm making a video, and i would like to use some parts of trailer for Wolfenstein The Old Blood (because i don't have to record), but i'm worried about copyright strikes. I looked it up, and found this:
"Copyright Disclaimer Under Section 107 of the Copyright Act 1976, allowance is made for \"fair use\" for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching, scholarship, and research. Fair use is a use permitted by copyright statute that might otherwise be infringing. Non-profit, educational or personal use tips the balance in favour of fair use.\"

Does that mean i can use the trailer, or is it's about the gameplay footage? I am going to change it by adding some background music, and voice over...

Gameplay wise then 90% of the time your good. A official trailer on the other hand is something else. For as far i know without permission from the company you are not eligible to use it for your own.

In that case i'll just record some gameplay. Thanks for replying

No problem mate, you could make a montage of gameplay fragments and build a own trailer maybe

I replied to another post like this about fair use yesterday

"You can use copyrighted content if it falls under fair use. From the video shown it's a review on the clip with included commentary about it. If they just showed the trailer and noting else it would definitely be taken down. It's a bit of a grey area on youtube though as you can still get a content claim on the video even if it's 100% legal. There was a video somewhere that explained how fair use works really well but I can't find it

Found this one which is pretty good also."

Posting something without permission and attempting to profit from it and promoting "no copyright intended" is just admitting copyright fraud.
Most times nowadays Content ID will nab you and strip monetizing rights from you and give them to the owner of the content, but reloading a gameplay trailer even without any previous strikes or guidelines issues can terminate your channel.
One IRL friend of mine had 300 subscribers, uploaded a trailer and BOOM, no more channel.

I'm just going to record some gameplay myself. I asked because i saw few trailers that weren't uploaded by Bethesda, and they had the standard youtube licence...
