One ask, could you make the riddles shorter? I'm pretty much going to ignore any single parts longer than 5 lines moving forward.

Learning the floorboards as well. Equipped with better mining techniques, I am better prepared for Terraria's vast amount of secrets and surprises... or so I thought.
Not sure if members can see it, but I added a couple Patreon sub goals to the main page. The jump from 2.5k to 5k was too large, so I added in a celebration stream sub goal for each of the 3k and 4k milestones. Tell your friends!

Thanks to 200+ riddles and puzzles, I've expanded my Terraria knowledge! It's still the early game, so I probably don't need them, but it's fun to integrate them into the video regardless. In the future, I will probably save riddles for when I'm stuck. As a heads up, I've already recorded a lot of the next episode without riddles, so I suspect only 1 or 2 will make it in. Riddle away!
March Bonus Video 4/4, next episode will come in early April

You didn't think I was just going to play Terraria, right? We're all about puzzle games here, so I think this is a perfect time to try out something extremely experimental. I'm going to need everyone's cooperation for this to work, but if it does work, it will be a great time for all of us. The main gist is explained in the video's intro: I can only learn about Terraria from cryptic riddles hand crafted by you Patreon supporters. I'd like to go over the full rules here.

A satisfying and bittersweet end to an introductory Factorio journey. Feels good to finally beat the tutorial. Here's my overall review of the game:
I'm a goal-oriented person, so it was great to play Factorio with a tangible goal of building the rocket and beating the game. The game provides a ton of organic and interesting short-term goals too, such as producing the next tier of science or fixing a resource shortage. Fixing an iron, copper, or plastic shortage was immensely...

Referring to both yellow science and the device I have at my feet because I refuse to get up from playing this game.
As a reminder, if you are in the Nominating Tier or Voter Fraud Tier, you have three days left to submit a game request via Patreon's DMs! I'm not sure if there's confusion about this, but if you submitted a game three months ago, your nomination doesn't carry over, so be sure to take advantage of your nomination.

This is ADVANCED oil processing. Somehow, the factory got more satisfying when I added more things.
This page just got yearly subscriptions enabled! If you've enjoyed the videos and think you'll stick around for a year, decide whether a yearly subscription is right for you. You'll save some money over the course of the year, and my editors and I will get a larger payment, because much less will go towards processing fees. Thanks for all your support. :)
With nuclear power conquered, it's time to make the next grape scientific advancement. If I don't act quickly, I will have a biting problem on my hands.

I make an extremely important advancement in the name of science... and develop nuclear energy.
The video's slightly later than the past few, but that's why I'm delivering 4 videos a month instead of 1 video a week! I won't be making update posts on videos because I don't want to clutter the timeline. However, if you want to know the status on a video, you can always ask on the Discord server or shoot me a DM! 4 videos a month is happening no matter what.
I must prepare my factory to receive nuclear power. This, as you might surmise, is not an easy process.

My first real megaproject begins! Factory 2 is slated to be a convenient and easily-expandable factory that doesn't even need calculated ratios to work properly. I realize quickly that this is going to take a lot longer than expected. I've still managed to keep this playthrough blind, it's a lot of fun that way!
It's only on the YouTube player (and not both) because I'm on vacation, and upload speed is too slow to upload it to two places.

Factorio Ep. 1 is underway, only Ep. 1 will be available on YouTube! There are still four exclusive videos to come this month, and they will continue my Factorio journey.
I've selected a date for both Factorio Ep. 2 AND the celebration livestream: January 7th. Mark your calendars, it should be a fun one! It'll likely be a 4-5 hour stream, playing some casual games, and chatting with everyone.
