The quiz #4

Guess the games, guess the topic, win this prize ham! Not really.

Sorry this one is taking longer than expected but .... life. Oh well. It has to happen sometimes.

The least exciting update ever

Your patronage has helped me to purchase back up services for my ever growing collection of video game recordings. Thanks! I've been recording everything I've played since I first started making these youtube videos, and it's already over 200GB. So the next step will be to buy a new hard drive to replace the ageing 320GB one I've been using for for the las...

Edging in boardgames

Just an experiment, so this is a free video. Please tell me what you think, honestly. I can take it.

It was all recorded on a phone. I'm not sure what my future plans for boardgame videos are yet, I guess it depends on the reaction to this first experiment.

The quiz #3

Okay, this is just an experiment and will be a free video.

The actual video topic is very hard to guess, even if you know both games above, although they should be pretty obvious. I'll give you a hint: the game on the left does this better than the one on the right.

EDIT: For the quiz, I will respond to guesses after the video has been posted.

Boardgames?

1. Have you ever played The Settlers of Catan?

2. Do you regularly play boardgames?

I'd really appreciate any answers you can give me, even if the answer to both questions is just "no". I need to understand my audience before making my next video.

Okay, so here's the deal. I'm thinking about making a test video, like my other videos, but about boardgames instead. This video will be free to patrons if I go ahead with it. There are a few challenges however: getting video...

Accepting failure

I hope you like Mass Effect. Spoilers for ME1-3. Sorry I skipped the quiz on this one, but I thought it might have ruined the twist I use at the end of the first paragraph.

Thanks for the microphone! I hope you can hear the difference, but perhaps I still need to record in a quieter environment and edit the sound more.  The mic certainly made recording easier as I didn't have to futz with it so much to get it sounding clean.

Also, you might notice ads on this video. There's...

Thank you

I'd like to thank all of you for supporting me so I could purchase this new microphone. You should be able to hear the difference in the next episode.

Speaking of the next episode, I have to play through some long RPGs to get the video I need. If it all goes to plan it should be coming out sometime after Christmas. Again, thanks so much everyone!

Playing the psychopath

Hopefully you don't think I'm some kind of monster now.

It might be a while before the next episode comes out. If I do the one I'm thinking about next, I have to play through at least one lengthy RPG, maybe even twice.

Again, thanks so much for all your support.

Video download attached if you want to watch it at a higher quality than youtube.

The quiz #2

This one's taking a little longer than I had planned, but should be out by next weekend.

Da-da-da! Quiz time! Guess the title or topic. Guess all the games pictured too, if you like. Hint: one of these things is not like the others.

Free video: Not Rogue's Legacy

I decided not to charge for this one. It's a bit pedantic, but I hope you all enjoy it!

The quiz #1

Okay, kind folks, as promised, here's a few screens from the upcoming video. Guess the topic! Guess the title! Winner gets a (very small) prize, but you're all winners in my book. It really means a lot to me that people like my stuff enough to support it.

Multiple endings in games

Blade Runner and Mass Effect 3 ending compilations

These are the longer, real time (ie. kind of boring) versions of the videos I used in my Multiple endings video. I will not charge for bonus content like this, but in the future, bonus videos will only be available to patrons.

A review of Blade Runner, Westwood's 1997 adventure game

This is an example of bonus content that will be available only to patreon subs in the future. I will not charge for bonus content.

Surprisingly, the game’s story actually works really well within the Blade Runner movie. It takes place at the same time without crossing over too much. It uses the old movie locations well. The game’s new locations are mostly well done but some clash a little with the movie’s aesthetic. It takes the movie’s music and sounds and uses them quite well, ...

Human movement

Had to install GTA 4 for this, along with crappy securom and everything. That took about 30 mins, then I had to play it for about an hour to get to the bit I needed. All that for a two-second falling down drunk shot.

Defying gamer logic

First proper episode of my channel.
