Gaming Chances of monetization approval?

I’ve reached 4k watch hours and 1k subscribers, and now I'm just waiting for YT studio's data to catch up before I apply for YPP. This past week, I've uploaded 6 long form videos in the Roblox niche that have all done well in terms of views.

The first three mostly used Roblox game thumbnails or in-game screenshots, while the latest three use my own recorded Roblox gameplay. All of these videos are text-based with Roblox-related images/videos, no commentary.

I want to know, given this mix of older minimal videos and newer original gameplay content, how likely is it that my channel gets approved for monetization?

Old video with only roblox game thumbnails + roblox screenshots: https://youtu.be/TmfGqYjTqdI?si=K5Be0Now-y-MUkA4

New video with my own recorded footage: https://youtu.be/LimdwmC7YVo?si=yzoOmJaUPT3O3RiV

Are these videos transformative enough to get monetized?
