Weekly Update 1

what's up, its time for the weekly update. this week's been pretty rough because of school stuff, mainly the fact that the end of the year finals are in 2 weeks and my dad's been on my ass about that because unlike my younger brother, I'm not a straight A student and get mostly C's and B's with the occasional A here and there. on top of the school shit like 3 of my brother's friends had their birthdays this week, so my daily routine this week has basically been go to school for 8 hours, get home to try and study (I hate having ADHD), drive my brother to his friend's birthday, drive back home to attempt to study again, go pick up my brother from his friend's, get home anywhere between 8 and 10 pm, then try to work on the video for a bit, sleep, repeat. add to this routine a few night terrors and just some restless shitty sleep in general and its not been fun. school's not been all bad though, the seniors graduated this week which meant we didn't really do that much in school and we got to trash the place on wednesday so that was fun. I also managed to get the first 2 minutes of the video done which is about half the work on that video done since all that's left is two or three scripted segments and a gameplay segment (that I'm only putting in to add time to the video and to read off the questions in last video's comment section) so I might be able to finish the video this weekend or by tuesday which is good.

the decision to not have deadlines for videos has made it so I can work on this review whenever I want which has taken away a ton of pressure and changing up the content style from gameplay to a review has let me do a ton of experimentation with my style and its let me play around with a ton of effects, presets and with after effects which has made the experience of working on this video pretty enjoyable and fun.

the next video I work on will probably be a hoi4 scenario like the ones goatedd has made (this is like the third time I've mentioned goatedd in a update but he's the only one that makes hoi4 scenarios) so that should be interesting.

I guess that's it for this weekly update, throughout the week I'll probably post more progress reports and just random shit on here, so yeah. remember to always drink when you drive.

I also made a discord server only for the people in this patreon so join it if you want: https://discord.gg/9MsAaHzM

Millennium Dawn Review progress report

Here's a little progress update for the millennium dawn review, its basically the first minute of the video plus the second minute. The part at the end that's just a black screen with the narration is like that because I haven't done the visual editing for that yet, and as you can tell by the fact that I've only gotten another minute done since I showed you all the first minute, I haven't really been doing that much editing (I'll talk more about that on Friday's weekly update). I still haven't added background music ( and don't know if I will), also, I hired a voice actor to narrate the little phone call bit at the end of this segment but I haven't added the audio in because I want to finish the visuals first, so I can now say that you as my Patreons have contributed directly to the video. Any feedback is appreciated.

here's the first minute of the millennium dawn review, I'm mainly posting it here in order to get some feedback (just tell me what you like, what you don't like, what you'd change and what you'd add)

video progress report

I started officially working on the millennium dawn video yesterday and I've made a decent amount of progress. I also decided to turn the video into a review video because the script I wrote was leaning more towards review than gameplay (if that makes sense), so I'll have to rewrite most of it now, but I honestly don't mind. I'm glad to say I'm enjoying making this one. I also have a temporary title, if you have title suggestions let me know, I'd be happy to read them.

work in progress

here's something I'm experimenting with for the millenium dawn video I'm making.

update 0

Hello people that give me money, I have decided to start writing updates on here to add a bit of value to this Patreon. For the first ever update I would like to say that I am growing tired of making hoi4 gameplay videos. It feels like every gameplay video I make the quality drops, not to mention that I'm growing tired of uploading a video every weekend, recording a video after I upload the weekly hoi video, then editing it throughout the week only to repeat the process every week. 

After this week's video I'll start working on a semi-scripted video (think ssethtzentacht style) and in the future I'll try experimenting with that style. I might also try to make hoi4 scenarios similar to the ones goatedd makes.

If you want to ask me any questions feel free to write to me here on Patreon or send me an email, let's see how long I can keep these weekly updates going.
