There's a chance modern gaming will hit a million views while I'm asleep tonight. I just wanted to say to everyone: thank you from the bottom of my heart! I have been met with almost nothing but positivity, and I'm still thinking on what's next. Haven't started writing just yet!

Finally dedicating time today to writing. I mostly got the structure down and I'm getting motivated to write jokes. I wish I was faster at this shit but I have short bursts of creativity, then long periods of doubt that it's any good lol. I'm sure a lot of folks can relate.

Got stressed thinking about working on next video, so I'm playing Rayman 2 and some other games in my limited free time instead. Still have a few more games to capture footage for the next video. I'll probably resume work in a couple weeks. It's gonna be gooooood.

I monetized my channel because I was able to. Fully expect to be demonetized on the modern gaming video. Probably will start a "per creation" patreon but not until my next idea is towards the end of the process. I won't let monetization dictate the videos, always uncensored!

No, Baldur's Gate 3 did not save gaming. I don't want to look at one of the most intimidating UI systems I've ever seen to maybe enjoy an RPG that is still too long for someone with a job. Starfield too, someone said you only need to play for a "few hours" before it's good.

The solution to make an RPG good is not all this "mile-wide inch deep" stuff. It's to craft a tight experience without the bloat. Mass effect 2, deus ex, and Chrono trigger all nailed that for me personally.
