Possible new perk preview/test

Hey all!

A while ago, I talked about the possibility of adding a new "early access" perk to some of my videos, but I never really got around to actually doing it. The main reason for this is I've always wanted to keep this Patreon kind of minor so non-patrons don't feel left out - I want people to sign up for this site because they feel like they want to support me, not like they have to support me(is pay2win an appropriate term here?). 

So, it's a tricky mix of giving you guys cool perks to make it worth the support, while at the same time not going overboard.

All that being said, I've given it some thought and I'd at least like to try the new perk and get everyone's feedback if it's a good idea or not.

If I were to officially add it, it would be a 1 or 2 day early access on most of my videos. The only times I wouldn't do early access is for news videos since those are pretty time-sensitive - I'd like to get those out asap while the info is still new to everyone. So this would be stuff like new ptr news, expansion news, etc.

I'd also skip the early access if I fell behind on videos. If you noticed I usually try to get 1 video out every 3-5ish days. So if I fall behind that, I'd just release the video normally so the non-patrons don't go too long without something new to watch.

Also, an upside to this is I usually don't even post videos the day I finish them anyways. I always like to watch them a couple of times to make sure I don't have any huge errors and "let it sit" for a while if that makes sense. So, instead of taking that extra day to review/fact check it, I can just post it on here. That way there wouldn't be a difference for non-Patreon users - just a bonus for the Patrons.

Another bonus is you guys/gals could alert me if I had any errors so I could fix them before I post it on the YT channel.

And lastly, these videos would be put on an alternate channel with no ads enabled, so you don't have to sit through any advertisements.

Lots of upsides for sure, and I think if we go through with it it'll probably be the most substantial perk for my Patreon. The script/VO previews are alright, but you guys would prefer having the actual video, right? Also to follow the scheme of things, this perk would be active for every tier just like all the others.

So, let me know what you think. The video should be attached to this post(I hope). It's that part 2 of my rare/interesting items I've been talking about. If you have any feedback about this perk idea, or the video itself feel free to reply to this post or @ me on discord.

Thanks as always all - talk to you soon.

Thanks for the feedback Bear! That means a lot dude. I actually forgot about that vanilla keys series...that's a good idea! I think the very next one will be a Legion video after all since I want to keep a good mix of classic/current, but I'll keep vanilla keys in mind!

I guess the perk is ok. But it would be really interesting to see some of your unused footage, work-in-progress stuff. But your content is so good I will support your channel even without any perks :) And in the previous post you asked for some suggestions regarding the next video so me personally, I would love another episode of Azeroth Arsenal or Vanilla Keys. Anyway keep up the good work!

Thanks Jeff! Always nice to have a second set of eyes to take a look at things. WoW gets them every time...I swear!

I didn't see anything wrong though my knowledge of what was is pretty abysmal and you don't come off as bragging to me though I am jealous of your mad skills with the ladies. If I only knew I could have been using WoW to pull chicks lol. I also enjoy the rambling so ramble on sir!

I don't mind one way or another if you wish to add more perks. I do like the idea of us helping you out though. I'll check it out when I get off work and let you know if I spot anything.
