Update #75 - Halloween Video on Schedule, Other Altered

Hope your October has been going well!

As said in the last post, my past working time has mainly been working on the Halloween video and going through mail. I've gotten my inbox down to the last 140 at the time of writing, so that probably gives a good idea of just how swamped things have been. Unfortunately, the update I was waiting on for the mid-month video ended up being later than planned by several days which meant that something would have to be rushed on one of ...

Update #74 - Merchandise Poll & October Plans

October is here!

I found out the information I needed, and it looks like I won't be able to start working on the next released video properly until around the mid-point of the month due to it getting a major update then. I do have a lot already set on it regardless, but I'll still need to wait until then to record most of what I need. I'm not keeping idle though, as I'm going t...

AVP Credit Questions

Update #73 - AVP Video SOON

Good morning!

First off, congratulations to Doyes and his story about the Dublin Whiskey Fire where no one died of fire but instead died of alcohol poisoning from drinking free whiskey. 

Not much to report on since I've worked ahead and the video will be coming out earlier than usual on the 1st of October short of some kind of hardware disaster. Assets continue to be...

Update #72 - Factorio Up for Grabs, Halloween Preparations

Evening/early morning!

I ended up having time to get the Factorio video put together on time, though the real life matters are still going to be biting at me a bit. Though speaking of biting some of the Halloween videos are already being worked on. I'm hoping to have the big adventure game video out for Halloween itself and a lot of cool stuff is already completed for it but I can never be sure with big projects. I'll keep you all upda...

Update #71 - Factory Work Continues, Possible Delay due to Fire

Afternoon,

Congratulations to matt for winning The Forest copy with the tale of John Frum made god.

I've been getting Factorio footage over the past three-ish weeks with factories in all kinds of configurations. It got to the point I was starting to dream of trying to solve problems with belts so I think that was the breaking point. I'm still expecting it to be one of the shorter videos since I'd rather not just name off everything in the game and the story is onl...

Update #70 - The Forest Copy Up for Grabs, Next Video Recording

Good morning/afternoon!

The Forest video is completed, though it was a little later by a few hours than I'd usually like it due to a processing error on YouTube's end that didn't actually stop when the video showed as completed. I realized that while it showed 1080p on desktop it was still showing 480p on mobile, and didn't actually pop to full 1440p until two days later. So if the bitrate/video looked blurrier than usual that's why and it's better now.

S...

Update #70 - The Forest and Next Game Poll

Afternoon!

I've been recording a LOT of the runner up game of the last poll, The Forest, and have already started the editing process. I already had to separate the footage out into folders since there's way more than I expected to be getting for a game I'd already played a lot of for on and off for a few years. The caves are much more of a labyrinth than I remember, and since ...

Update #69 - Things are Going Nice

Afternoon!

Everything is on schedule. I did a brief section about the Black Orc Big Boss in Total War Warhammer for another YouTuber you can view here (my part begins at 16:09) and while my contribution was done weeks ago it's nice for it to be up for everyone now.

The System Shock video ended up going through a weird issue on YouTube's end. Apparently some game music got remixed a...

Update #68 - Next Video Poll, Plan Shift

Morning everyone!

The video on the adventure game is spinning slightly out of control similar to the Total War video, though I still doubt it'll be as long. Some other hands are helping me on it and some aspects will take longer to prepare, so I'm having to push it back to October, possibly even being a Halloween video depending on how things progress. Most of the work being done recently has been for that, and I don't want to start teasing things just yet.

System Shock Video Questions

Thank you!

Update #67 - System Shock Coming

Good evening!

A lot has been happening. First, all the videos in the review playlist all have captions in both English and Russian, and also all have the new video chapter feature built into them. The Russian chapters are still in the process of translation and will be coming along shortly. I also did a small video section for a Total War video which I'm not sure when will be a...

Update #66 - System Shock, Equipment Upgrades, Long Term Stuff

Morning everybody!
After playing through the System Shock demo (and the original game for a run) there's been a slight change of plans. I don't think I have quite enough to go into on the remake compared to something like the Gothic demo, so instead I'll be combining them both into one. So the video will consist of a review of the System Shock Enhanced Edition with a section on the end talking about what the remake appears to be getting ri...

Brigador Video Credit Questions

Thank you!

Update #65 - Brigador Friday

Good afternoon!

Once again little news is good news. I've filled out Patreon's new sales tax thingy, and luckily it's not nearly as bad as I thought it'd be since there's nothing here attached to physical merch or exclusive videos yet, so there'll be a great deal of immunity from the worst aspects of the change.

On the video side of news, Brigador will be this coming Frid...

Next Video Poll

Afternoon everyone!

Continuing to get the Brigador video together. There's a lot to record with all the Freelance missions and maps, but everything is so far on schedule. What comes right after it is still up in the air, so once again I'm putting it to a vote. 

It won't be nearly the production time of the Total War video, but I'm going to be starting on doing a video on another adventure game soon so I won't have anything massively long to play like an RPG v...

Metal Fatigue Credit Questions

As always, questions for the next video's credits will be taken from the comments below.

Thank you!

Update #64 - Metal Fatigue and Patreon Sales Tax

Good morning everyone.

First off, congratulations to Matkingos and Wise Genius for their winning Grom artwork! It was too hard to pick between them, so they've both won game and DLC keys.

There were a lot of other good ones in the comments as well, so you can check those out ...

Update #64 - Total War Warhammer 2/Grom Copy Contest & More

Morning lads. 

With Total War (and Warhammer in general) done with for the time being I'll be giving out a copy of the second game along with the newest Warden and the Paunch DLC here. To enter, post an MS paint image you've made of Grom the Paunch, the biggest and greenest of goblins, in the comments. A winner will be picked and receive the keys on Saturday.

The poll last week was very close but Brigador edged out as the winner. I'm currently workin...

Poll for Video Down the Line

Afternoon everyone!

There was a bit of a shift as I pondered in the last post. The current plan is to do the follow up video for Warhammer 2's new DLC, then a video on Metal Fatigue. What comes right after will be up to you, and it's honestly a hard choice between two games so I'm going to leave it up to a vote for you to decide.

Thank you as always for your support!

Update #63 - Warhammer 2 Video Art Stuff and Going Forward

Good afternoon!

The video is now out, a day behind schedule. I'm really sorry for the day delay but there were still a few final things I needed to put in. It wasn't the fault of anyone I was working with since they were all great and put their stuff in on time, it was all on me. On that note I hope you enjoyed it!

I'm going to start working on another proper non-Warhammer game review in a few days since I'm gonna take a little bit to recover from the past while o...

Update #62 - The Editing Continues

Afternoon everyone!

There's a lot of footage being edited. I honestly still can't tell how long the video is going to be, but I'm still trying to keep it under an hour. I've had to take some steps working on this that I haven't for usual videos like rendering some minichunks of the video to place back into the editor to stop crashing, general extreme file organization, and a lot other methods to keep me sane I usually don't have to use. I have a few other people contrib...

TWW2 Credit Questions

I'm definitely going stir crazy, but I'm well into editing and thankfully it looks like I'll need to go back to record less than planned. There are thousands of video files though, it'll be a long time before I do something of this scale again.

As always, credit questions will be collected from the comments below. Thanks!

Update #61 - The Work Continues/Obligatory Virus Update

Good evening!

Not much to report in detail after these few weeks. I'm recording the final bits of the DLC factions in Total Warhammer (some of which are hell) and I'm about to dive into editing it all together and seeing what else I need to record. All hands are on deck for this video as you can imagine, and I suspect it'll be in mid-April though it's possible that could move either direction. I can't imagine a situation where it'd be delayed to May. As I suspected earl...

Update #60 - Mechanicus Animation Making of

Morning Gamers.
Finally a bit of a more substantial post since I'm not crunching as hard this round. Congratulations to Nameless Guardsman and Christian Sibbitt for winning Mechanicus keys!
Speaking of which, since the semi-secret is finally out I can talk about the animation Extellus did for the video. We had started on it in early December. 

When I worked with him this t...

Update #59 - Mechanicus Copy Contest and TWW2

Evening lads.

Once again, Extellus did an excellent job with continuing the animation from the UnReal World video. There'll be a longer behind the scenes post next week showing what all we did and what changes got made since we started plotting it out a few months ago.

I've also got two copies of the Omnissiah Edition of Mechanicus on GOG to give out. The 2020-02-29 02:21:40 +0000 UTC View Post
