The Past, Present and Future of the Channel

So last night I did a fairly large stream over on the channel where I wanted to talk about my year and what the future of IFAVG looks like.

I've included the link here for anyone that missed out but I'll provide a few bullet points for those that would rather cut to the chase...

• My cancer situation this year has been really challenging and I've had a lot of complications

• Thankfully I'm now cancer free and in monitoring rather than treatment

• Unfortunately the impact on the channel has been quite large and a lot of momentum has been lost - especially when it comes to my income

• I'm introducing a new Patreon only series that will launch alongside each upload to the channel

• I'll be putting out some shorter and more focused videos over the next six months or so. Mega Long Form franchise videos will be taking a very short break until we get things moving again

Thanks to my health (both physical and mental) being so much better I feel really fired up about all of this and the response from the chat last night felt really positive. I really think that the next few videos aren't just going to be more manageable but also cover really exciting topics and hopefully you won't notice the change at all!

As for the Patreon only series - I did say on the stream that this would be launching TODAY but I've decided to delay it until Sunday just because I want to make is as good as physically possible.

After seeing the huge outpouring of support last night, I decided add back in a whole section which I'd previously cut just because I really want to make sure this delivers for everyone!

So I'll be posting "The Licensed Games That Should Not Be" at 6PM on Sunday!

Once again thanks so much for the support throughout this year. It's been brutal at times but knowing I've got you all behind me has made a massive difference.

Hopefully I can start paying that back to you all this weekend!

Big love,

Matt
