Since FRAPS isn't being updated at all, what's the new game footage recorder of choice?

Remember in 2013 when FRAPS was the shit? Good times. Now, I guess, it's time for something new. What are all the cool kids using these days?

OBS, open broadcast software.

Bandicam, but i still use Fraps so that's a twist for today

OBS is pretty good

I can vouch for OBS.

There's also Nvidia's ShadowPlay. While more limited, it will be more performant as it's directly integrated into your gpu.

Xsplit is also an option but OBS seems to be the standard

OBS, open broadcast software.

I specifically use OBS studio, i think the original OBS is deprecated

When recording with OBS, make sure to limit the video quality in the settings or you will record 200 GB in 10 minutes.
These settings here are pretty much youtube quality:

I export to quicktime then edit in final cut pro maybe you could find an old version if you have a mac
