Preferred Medium for Blog?

Added 2019-12-16 11:27:49 +0000 UTC

In recent chats with the $5+ patrons - who get invited to this sort of thing - it was raised that, whilst they are enjoying the Design Blog, they would love to get more insight into why some things in ZD are as they are. Why, for example, are there no weapons tables? Why can't heroes be mechs? Why are there five levels of wounded?

I would love to go into this stuff. It's partly about game design, partly about my own military experience and partly about the experience of others. But if I'm going to create this content, I'd like it to be in a form you guys can enjoy the easiest. So which would you prefer?

1. Video. This would be a Vimeo thing, provided as exclusive content for patrons, probably going public only after ZD is released. It'll basically be talking head stuff: me, to camera, with my disaster zone of a workbench behind me. There might be illustrative shots, if relevant.

2. Podcast. Not 100% sure how I'd host this for exclusivity, but I'm open to suggestions. MP3, just me talking about stuff, but I'd also do a text-based version for the blog.

3. Blog. Just another entry in the blogroll - written explanatory text with occasional photos.
