What I'm working on
🕑 Added 2022-02-12 14:22:38 +0000 UTC
Hello here's an update on stuff I worked on, stuff I'm working on and stuff I'm thinking of working on, featuring an image I spent an hour making instead of working on stuff. It's bigger if you click on it and basically says everything I'm about to write.
ARDNUT GAMER
First up, some of you may already know but some years back I made a joke video called the Ardnut Gamer and one person was so annoyed he told me to never make another video like that again. I did, I just made a side channel for it that updates whenever I have an idea, which is rare: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCWgg...
YAKUZA 0
Next video is Yakuza 0, I'm currently most of the way done with my first playthrough (just grinding out coliseum matches then I'm pretty much free to finish the story). I was worried that by this point in the Yakuza series I'd be struggling for new thoughts but no, Yakuza 0 is giving me plenty to chew on. When is it coming out? Couldn't say, it's further off than a month, probably two, but I am at work on it. I am bad at time estimates in general.
PURE PWNAGE
In a little diversion from typical gaming stuff, I've also started making notes for a retrospective on the old web series Pure Pwnage. It's an idea I've been kicking around for a while since I grew up with it and don't see anyone talk about the show nowadays, rewatching it as an adult was fun but kinda melancholy and I wanted to share. I am working on this alongside Yakuza 0, in my head it's meant to be an easier video to make but it probably won't be, I'm still not entirely sure how I want to format it since I'm covering an episodic show rather than a video game.
BRIGADE E5/7.62
I've also been playing 7.62 and Brigade E5 recently, they've been sitting on my backlog for a long time and I finally took the plunge and I will probably make a video on at least one of these games. It's some good ambitious jank, a spiritual successor to Jagged Alliance in 3D with a nice meaty combat system and excellent interest rates at the local bank.
FIGHTBOX
Alongside that, I now own five copies of the game Fightbox. Four PS2 copies that don't work, and now a PC copy that might work. I've wanted to cover this game (and its TV series) for a while. After the BBC lost Robot Wars to Channel Five back in the day It was replaced by Fightbox. A show where people submitted CGI abominations made in an online tool to duke it out, it was really bad, every single episode apparently lost money, and somehow it got a game.
PLAYING SONIC ADVENTURE WRONG
Also in all of this mess I am gonna continue Playing Sonic Wrong, talking about the Adventure games, this will go from Adventure 1 - Sonic 06. Response to the first video was great, I'm really happy about that, and I hope I can keep it interesting throughout. Everyone pretty much called how I'm going to play Adventure 1 and yeah, was pretty obvious.
VR Melee Comparison
This video is just one I've dropped the ball on repeatedly. I've long wanted to make a video comparing various VR melee combat games, I was working on it when I made the Alyx/Boneworks comparison last year, but kept putting it off for other projects and that trend has continued, so this is just me acknowledging the project still exists. I did trip myself up because I cannibalised a few ideas I had for it and placed them in the VR Shooter vid.
I appreciate everyone's patience, and just know that I am chipping away at things.

Your video on Yakuza 3 got me interested in the series, and 0 was the one I decided to start with. So I excited to see you do a video on it.

let me know if I can help provide any insight, the issues of crashing honestly seems half-astrology. Some days it will crash every other quicksave, others I will go for hours without it crashing once.

It's still not an absolute certainty, just to be clear. I've mostly been playing Brigade and it's been a slow learning experience. I intend to dig into 7.62 properly afterwards since it seems just as interesting but I've had a lot of issues with crashing that hasn't happened as much with Brigade so I've got to puzzle that out. (Crashing occurs in vanilla, BSM, and Hard Life so the problem lies a little deeper)

I can't stop you from believing that

That picture is you. I know it's you.

Snake, I've been a fan for a while but finally decided to chip in especially knowing you're going to do a 7,62/Brigade E5 video. I've currently got about 600 hours recorded on steam with 7,62 hard life and in reality it's actually at least a 100 more than that. I think I'm scared that you're going to figure something out about the game that I still somehow don't know.
