(September Voting Time!) One Last Burst

Whoops, almost forgot to make a post this month. I've been very busy lately with the top 50 Medium Demons video, and I'm finally on the last leg of the journey. The only thing that's left now is the editing phase. Ballpark estimate is that the video will be around 1 hour and 40 minutes in length, possibly longer, so this is still quite the undertaking. I have a hard deadline for you to look forward to, though.

I'm going on a trip next month starting on the 13th, so I'd really like to ha...

(August Voting Time!) Big Thing Coming

I've been gesturing a lot at the progress I've been making on my top 50 medium demons video in the last few posts, but we're reaching a point where I genuinely believe it could get finished within a month. I'm not distracting myself with other videos anymore (except the mini reviews of course) and I'm striving to get it out this September. I'm super excited, it's going to be a good one.

But for now, voting time! As always, pick any level you'd like me to review, and I'll spin the wheel ...

(July Voting Time!) Happy Birthday Me

Yep, yep, it was my birthday on the 4th, feel free to congratulate me! Although, I think I've reached a point in my life where I'm actually starting to dread the next one as the numbers just keep climbing. I'm not even that old! But I've never felt more old than I do right now. I guess that just comes with aging in general. It's all good, though. I'm cherishing life, and I don't plan on dying anytime soon. You won't be rid of me for a very long time.

Anyway, in hindsight I kind of have ...

(June Voting Time!) So Much To Do, So Much To See

I normally try to get one video out per month besides my mini reviews, but I was not able to reach that goal last month. I already said this in a community post on YouTube, but I dropped the last video I was working on, which is one part of the reason for this. On top of that though, my life has just gotten busier lately. It's the good kind of busy though, I'm enjoying life at the moment. Feels pretty good. Either way, I do have a new video in the works, which should be coming out around next...

(May Voting Time!) Summer Rules

It's the most wonderful time of the year. Yesterday I went on a walk through a local park while rays of brilliant sunshine softly caressed my cheeks, unencumbered by thick, heavy coats or sweaters, simply enjoying a pleasant warm day. Basically, winter enjoyers are in complete shambles. Show them a picture of an idyllic grassy plain with flowers swaying in a gentle afternoon breeze and they will recoil like vampires. They prefer the desolate, frigid wastes of a winter landscape.

This is...

(April Voting Time!) Oh No

Ever since the Space Gauntlet contest results came out I've been debating whether or not I should make a video about it. My expectations were pretty low near the end, but good lord did it still manage to disappoint me somehow. I know I'd just be repeating what I said in the NCS Gauntlets video though, so it's difficult for me to justify spending time on making that video when I could just be working on something else instead. Still, it's important to voice criticism of these big community eve...

(March Voting Time!) Feeling Great

Man, the reception to that last video has been crazy. I knew I felt good about it while I was making it, but to see people respond so well to it was truly heartwarming. After all these years I still feel like I'm improving, I somehow still feel like I'm only just beginning to explore my full creative potential and it's such an invigorating feeling you wouldn't believe. On top of that, the growing support here on Patreon excites me to no end. Truly, thank you all very much.

With that gro...

(February Voting Time!) Please Bear With Me

I've been spending a lot of time lately working on the upcoming top 50 medium demons video, and I'm still not even close to done. It's going to take a while, but it will get done eventually, and when it does it will be worth it.

I will break up my workflow with smaller videos in the meantime of course, both for my sanity, and because I do want to keep posting videos, which leads us to the next monthly vote.

I already have a preference which I'm going to state right out of the ga...

(January Voting Time!) Time Spent Enjoying Yourself Is Not Wasted

Happy new year, everyone! Also late happy holidays! I hope you all enjoyed yourself, I know I sure did. I did spend the week before the holidays suffering from a debilitating illness, but once that cleared up I had a great holiday season. Afterwards I even went on a trip with family seeing the sights in Rome, having good food, and generally having a great time. Finally, I spent a lot of time playing through Metaphor ReFantazio as well. Suffice to say, I have not been working on videos at all....

(December Voting Time!) Winter Woes

The end of the year is nearly upon us, how exciting. Maybe a little overly sarcastic there, I do find this time of year kind of electrifying because there's so much going on, lots of things to plan for and do... it's exciting, but stressful too. I still hate how cold it is though. Winter enjoyers will point to the holiday season as a point in favour of the winter, not realizing that the reason we came up with those holidays in the first place is to get us through this miserable season. I've s...

(November Voting Time!) The Catharsis of Complaining

I'm not going to lie guys, the reception of my NCS Gauntlets video made me really happy. Not only because it simply feels good to loudly complain about something that frustrates you, but also because I was able to share that feeling with a bunch of other people who felt similarly. It's a stark reminder that there's undeniable value in complaining! I don't let naysayers discourage me; they love complaining too, after all.

I think I've complained enough for the time being, though. Probabl...

(October Voting Time!) Game Ruined

Lately I've been spending a surprising amount of time editing the Map Packs video. I didn't think it would take this long but just getting all the footage has been quite the undertaking. Doesn't help that sometimes there will be tiny frame skips in my footage that are just minorly inconvenient enough to get on my nerves. I'd really like to get rid of them, and I've tried messing with a bunch of different settings in OBS for this, but I have no idea what's even causing it in the first place. O...

(September Voting Time!) Add a title

It's come to my attention that the starting date for these votes has gradually been slipping further and further into the back half of the month and that is not something I'm feeling very comfortable with in case anything time consuming comes up, so I'm going to make an effort to pull it back to the beginning of each month again.

Not much worthy of note has happened since the last vote, I've basically just been playing a bunch of Minecraft and I released that hitboxes video the other da...

(August Voting Time!) Dawn of a New Day

After working on that top 50 video for the last few months it feels kind of strange not to have a massive project looming over my head, but I'm happy I finally got it done. YouTube Premieres are the devil but it was really fun to see people's reactions to it live, and I'm happy the video is getting such a warm reception. At least one person joined my Patreon as a result, big thank you to Eojin for becoming a Grandpa Demon!

Only two more top 50s before the series is complete. I'm not sur...

(Voting Time!) Slow and Steady progress

Hey! Uploads have been slow on my channel lately, but rest assured I am cooking! I'm making some good progress on my top 50 Hard Demons script, which might take me another week or so to finish. After that I still need to record and edit the video of course, which easily adds another week or two to the clock, but I'm feeling motivated, there shouldn't be any more delays. Just between you and me, I'm really liking how this script is turning out. I think I'm getting a lot better at formulating m...
