Heyo, everyone. Apologies for the lack of content the last month! The reality is the last half year didn’t really go as planned. I won’t bother with the recap, but now we’re here! And I’m fairly certain I’m ready to kick things off again.
A lot has gotten backed up, so I wanted to just kind of go over what my immediate, short term and long term plans are. Obviously things change, as they always do. But hopefully this will serve as a good outline of what is to be done.
Aside from the 3 categories themselves, these aren’t in any particular order. So don’t read too much into positioning on the lists.
Immediate Plans
Patreon
Removing the $10 Patreon level. I’d like to just flatten this into the $5 tier to simplify things a bit. This mostly just involves updating some pages to reflect this.
I’ll also be removing the stream game voting perk for now. The people who watch the stream don’t seem to be subscribed to the Patreon. It doesn’t make a lot of sense to offer this if those who are eligible to vote likely won’t watch the stream. I’ll re-consider as the patreon grows.Car Talk is probably dead for now, since I no longer commute to work. So I’ll need to find something to replace this.
I also want to create a short YouTube video promoting the Patreon once I’ve finished the above Patreon changes.
Casual Reviews
Pokemon Channel is definitely happening ASAP. It’s a cool game and I think I have a decent amount to say. Other casual reviews may crop up as I play some games in my free time
Catch Up On the Community Review Archive
I’m actually almost done with this. The Sword of Etheria’s is scheduled to come out next week Parasite Eve’s I’ll plan to put out by the end of this month.
In the future, I’d like to launch this sooner to when we finish the game on stream. No hard plans on exactly how to do this yet.
Test Streams
Unfortunately I didn’t quite finish my test streams needed. One I need to do is for a PC capture test stream. I need to do this before our upcoming University Doujin game stream.
An additional stream needs to be tested in the secondary set up to verify the issues I had were ironed. Microphone in this set up still may be unsalvageable, but I want to try at least one more time. Once this is done, this may help with other types of content.
Short Term Plans
Nintendoji Video
This needs to get done. Once the immediate projects are finished, this is 100% my focus until it’s done.
A PC-FX Video (undecided on how many)
A few options here:
A video about burning PC-FX games. Think there’s some value in this and probably fairly low hanging fruit.
Finally finishing the English Guide Video for Sparkling Feather. This has been on the back burner for….awhile lol.
Doing another easy English Guide video (Probably Ruru Ri Rarura)
Chibi-Robo Follow Up Video
This script is basically done, and I may try to put it together pretty quickly after the Nintenodji video to push traffic back to it. I don’t think it will be hard, but I’ve said that before.
Shenmue Multi-Tap Podcast
I’ll probably need to start coordinating this soon. These have been fairly low effort recently though. May test video call capabilities with this one.
Long-Term Plans
Some of these may bleed over into the short term plan segment…
General Collection Videos
I did a poll a long time ago and this seems like it’d be pretty easy content to do. Could be either short or long-form. Maybe both.
There was also a GameCube games video I scripted out for the 20th anniversary last year that was nearly done script wise, but unfortunately didn’t get finished. I may revisit this as well… or maybe just abandon it.
Revisit Dirge of Cerberus Multi-Player Video Idea
DoC Multiplayer is cool and I think there’s a great video here.
Think about Final Fantasy XI Content
I want to do something with this and it may fit pretty well with the DoC Multiplayer video.There’s a few directions I can take here:
Finally revisit the Lost Underwear of FFXI Idea (Click bait-y title, but it’s actually kind of super interesting from a FFXI player’s perspective at least.). This does require learning how to hack the game tough.
General FFXI Appreciation Discussion or Video – I’d love to do this but FFXI is a big game and doing this right would probably be very hard.
Return to cut content – There’s been a lot of undocumented updates here. I could do some good looking over this stuff. Might be a good set of videos to put out alongside the DoC video or other FFXI content
Maybe a Buddy Mission BOND Video if I Can Justify It
SO FOR NOW, that’s that. I’m sure this will change as time goes on and my ever shifting interests will drag me new directions. But I’m really hoping we can make some real progress so we can move on from the bleed over from late 2021.
Again, thanks for your patience, as well as understanding given I kind of spread myself too thin on this stuff.
