Sorry for the silly question: I had bought RPG Maker VX Ace and I plan to create a game, but I don't want to publish it, instead I want to record it and post it on Youtube only - as a series showing scenes from my characters' story.

I read the EULA however I'm still very confused (English is not my first language) - sorry if I posted in the wrong place! Thank you for reading.
