September Update
Added 2023-09-01 17:16:20 +0000 UTCHey there GGN, I don't have much of an update to share with ya as we start the new month. As you can probably tell, it's been a couple months since my last game review and I'm sorry it's taken so long. I don't have a great excuse other than I really got into that ghost video and also, the Invisible War video turned out to be like 40 pages long, required (okay, it didn't) three playthroughs and I really want to go all out on it. I promise the next video I'll try to be less ambitious and actually get something out on my normal timeline because I gotta say I DO NOT like going more than a month without there being something up for the whole channel to see. I've got quite a few "are you dead?" "so...when's the next video?" "remember when there used to be videos?" messages across all platforms. Which I totally understand. I set a standard that I've been slipping on but I'm working to make up for it. Maybe it's a sign that I gotta cover more point and click adventure games or something without so much history and fallout surrounding it!
Good news is I slammed some energy drinks and ignored all other responsibilities the last few days and now the hard part (for me) is done and I can dive into the main editing for this current video. This is the part that I think I'm kind of good at doing quickly, the process...it's exhilarating. That part doesn't take more than a few days (but I'm not going to guess a number because I'm never right) normally depending on how much I add to it last minute. I don't know why I felt this was the video to dump all this extra time into, maybe it's because I'm approaching 100k subs and I want to be like..."worthy" of that? It's a big scary number! Or maybe it's just appropriate that I cover a game built on hubris by overthinking and trying to reinvent the wheel. Either way I just want you to know I'm doing my best to get this thing out and for it to be entertaining and I have been working hard on it. I've also been doing a lot of planning for what I want to do with patron-only content. I've got a bunch of little outlines and plans in the mix so hopefully I'll have a little something spooky for just my special lil critters come spooky season.
Okay, I'm going to get back to it! Thank you so much for your continued support. I never for a moment forget that I owe anything I have to you. I'll try to make this thing worth the wait <3

Take care of yourself; your videos are worth the wait! Hopefully Parapug is providing adequate moral support... Whatever that might be considering how crowded his brain space is these days.

2023-09-16 01:49:14 +0000 UTCHonestly, I am happy to get a video, but I can wait. I was more concerned about you not having money to live off, but if you are okay with it. I'll wait.

2023-09-02 19:14:37 +0000 UTC*A little compromise is good if it keeps one wary about attempting to achieve perfection.
Jeremy Impson
2023-09-02 15:40:05 +0000 UTCYeah, what everyone else said: don't burn out, don't compromise too much* on quality. We'll still be here.
Jeremy Impson
2023-09-02 15:38:53 +0000 UTCBy the way, I really liked the ghost hunting video so I don't feel like there's been a lack of content. I enjoyed that video and I will enjoy this one when it's done. Also, you've alr me earned the 100k otherwise you wouldn't have had the 100k. Those are 100k people that decided for themselves that you're worthy of keeping an eye on.

2023-09-02 13:34:13 +0000 UTCTake your time grim, as a supporter the little money I send your way is honestly a thank you for past content, you've delivered hours and hours of content so I owe you one. Take it easy, stay goth and just remember to-SAMMYYYYYYYYYYY

Lupus Yondergirl
2023-09-02 04:39:17 +0000 UTCWould you like us to *murder* those commenting on the lack of videos when they can’t see behind the curtain? Because I’ll do it. I’ll tell a judge I did too. They’ll be like “I’ll call you your honour from now on, your honour” because it was a good thing to do. Death to impatience.

2023-09-02 02:14:33 +0000 UTCGrim never worry about being late for a review, no matter what we're here for it and will watch no matter what you put out so long as it has your passion in it, also these energy drinks you referenced better be mountain dew kickstart orange 🧡
Bishy93
2023-09-02 00:33:30 +0000 UTCTake as much time as you need. Your videos are worth the wait. Also, aside from the ghost videos you are watching, is there a chance that we may expect a Baldur's Gate 3 impression? Lastly, thank you for all the great contents that you are making!

2023-09-02 00:31:59 +0000 UTCnot ded!! :O <3 :)

2023-09-02 00:04:33 +0000 UTCObviously you should do the secret of monkey island. nah but seriously I'd personally be up for more point and click stuff (doesn't even have to be monkey island I'm a flexible individual), but also take the time you need its all good. in the end I think most here would rather you were enjoying making videos then rushing them for an arbitrary deadline. Love your work etc!
Sammy3D
2023-09-01 23:04:26 +0000 UTCDon't sweat it Grim! You don't us nothing and your videos (all videos) are worth their weight in Mountain Dew Kick Start (by the way the Orange flavor is definitely superior to the Black Chery)

2023-09-01 18:17:18 +0000 UTCExcited for this review! i also played this game for the first time a recently and had to replay to try all the mods and paths!

2023-09-01 18:14:52 +0000 UTCAs a big Deus Ex fan, I’m excited to hear you’re covering Invisible War. I followed its development, and I’m really interested in seeing your take on the game. Everything I read in reviews about IW boiled down to “bad dumb dumb no good game”. Even if it is, you’ll be able to present that in a worthwhile manner. If a review takes extra time, I know it’ll be worth the wait. Thank you for all you do and stay healthy. I’ll keep an orange citrus kickstart around for when it comes out.

2023-09-01 18:04:54 +0000 UTCI watched Iru maybe six or seven times cause it was amazing and the Ghost video was tons of fun to watch. Take your time, your content is always worth the wait.
RichterS
2023-09-01 18:04:36 +0000 UTCI was rewatching the Iru video and literally thought to myself, "I wonder if Grim is doing ok..." Glad you're doing well and actually just putting a near-obsessive amount of effort into the next video. You've got this 🫂
Werewolf Bar Mitzvah. Spooky, Scary. Boys Becoming Men, Men Becoming Wolves. AWOOOOOO!
2023-09-01 18:02:01 +0000 UTCevery time you apologize for something you shouldn’t apologize for I put a penny in a jar. I have ONE TRILLION pennies keep it breezy man glad to hear the heart of goth gamer nation beats still

2023-09-01 17:53:23 +0000 UTCDon't worry about the timeline grim. I'd be lying if I said I didn't miss the videos but you being proud of the work you put out is the most important part, I know it'll be worth the wait, much love <3

2023-09-01 17:48:24 +0000 UTCNo pressure, gotta take care of yourself first and foremost. I've got no problem waiting for great content such as yours

2023-09-01 17:40:41 +0000 UTCIf you're planning on reviewing a point and click adventure next, please consider Broken Sword. It would be the perfect time, as a Remake has just been announced for 2024. I'm glad to hear you're doing well. I think some of us were worried you were currently going through some shit, and your health comes way before any video. Looking forward to the new content.

2023-09-01 17:39:34 +0000 UTCGood things take time and good gamers take care, so be a good time+care-taking gamer and we'll be there to laud the release of your next awesome video. Thank you for everything you do!
Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh...
2023-09-01 17:38:48 +0000 UTCThe original Deus Ex video is sincerely the most entertaining video essay ever and the ghost vid was stellar as well so I'm more than happy to let the mans cook. For as much value as I've gotten from your vids you could do nothing for half a decade and I'd still feel like I haven't given enough
WhyDoPeopleHaveToLiveOutside
2023-09-01 17:32:11 +0000 UTCThanks for the update Grim. I can only imagine how much time and effort these take dude, so don’t beat yourself up. Btw that Ghost vid was excellent. Made me even watch the first 3 episodes of the show (Christ is Zak such an effortless douchebag lol)So thanks man. Can’t wait for the Invisible War drop.

2023-09-01 17:29:40 +0000 UTCHey man, glad to hear you are ok and thanks for the update, hope you are staying happy and healthy!

2023-09-01 17:27:24 +0000 UTCWhile I can't know what the stress of having a regular content schedule may entail, I can speak pretty confidently from the perspective of someone who has enjoyed your content for years now. I truly do not think you need to apologize for taking the time to make what you need to make at the pace that is sustainable for you. Your work is excellent, your sense of humor gets a guffaw out of me every time, and I would much rather one of my favorite creators not burn themselves out rather than making content every week/month. I'll be here watching regardless!
Garrettcarrott
2023-09-01 17:25:59 +0000 UTCYou got this, dude. Dollars to donuts, the real ones wouldn’t regard you like some kind of content machine. For me and others, we’re just grateful to have the occasional blast of delight that comes from your upload. And it counts that you’re not wrecking yourself while you do it.
Big Abuela Energy
2023-09-01 17:22:22 +0000 UTCHappy to wait for videos! I certainly would rather you took your time to upload a banger AND take care of yourself, rather than rush it and burn yourself out.
