Update: Anime Games 2

Okay, I've solidified the anime games idea and started writing it.

I basically just have a giant list of hypothetical anime games in a Google Doc now. And there are way too many good ones to cover in one video. So I've narrowed it down to 8 anime I'm going to flesh out into games. And if th...

Update: Anime Games

Okay, so I've come up with the idea for my next video. People talk a lot about games that should be turned into shows or movies (cough, Edgerunners, cough) But I want to specifically cover anime that should be turned into games / have games made about them.

I already have a pretty extensive...

Behind-The-Scenes: The Art of the Failure State

Here's my thoughts on my Failure State video!

I always love to make videos on more general topics, since coming up with examples and ideas is more fun when I can do it all around one big, central concept. Specifically, I had this idea about "Death In Video Games" after thin...

The Art of the Failure State

Most games have something called a failure state. A part of the game you see when you play less than perfectly. Whether it's a game over, death screen, or other way the game fails you, these are core parts of the experience of gaming. So why are so many of them so simple? Let's find out.

Behind-The-Scenes: Cyberpunk 2077

My GPU finally arrived! Here's my thoughts on my Cyberpunk video!

This video was a bit different to what it initially started as. The video was initially just going to be a review of the anime, comparing it to the game, but I found the game and anime themselves were the lea...

The Deceptive Redemption of Cyberpunk 2077

Cyberpunk 2077 recently had a revival due to the Edgerunners anime. But what caused Cyberpunk's downfall in the first place? And does it deserve redemption?   Let's find out.

(And apologies, as it will be a few days until the behind-the-scenes is released. My GPU died and I can't ...

Behind-The-Scenes: 40k Subscriber Q&A

Here's my thoughts on my Q&A video!

This video turned out WAY longer than I thought it ever would be. I am still surprised how many questions everyone had, and how many good o...

You asked. I answered. Here's a 90 minute long Q&A video where I cover every question you could possibly have about me or my channel!

Behind-The-Scenes: Comfort Games

Here's my thoughts on my Comfort Games video!

Pretty proud of how this turned out. I think I'm starting to nail down the specifics of my videos going forward. Namely my positioning with the couch and camera, and my sort of editing style for green screen videos.

The sc...

Behind-The-Scenes: Fanservice

Here's my thoughts on the Fanservice video!

Phew, what a video. Honestly I need to stop letting these things get so out of hand. I had the idea for a piece on fanservice and Fire Force that I thought wouldn't even make it to 15 minutes because I didn't have much to talk abo...

Behind-The-Scenes: Chainsaw Man

Here's my thoughts on the Chainsaw Man video!

Like I mention in the video, I read all of Chainsaw Man and just fell in love immediately. So the second I caught up to the manga, I started writing the video, and everything went from there. I've also been rewatching Casey Neis...

Behind-The-Scenes: Horror Games

Here's some notes on my Horror Games video!

I think this is, without a doubt, my favorite video I've made. I feel that way about most of the videos I put out, but this one just seems extra special.

Researching the video was like a weeks long process that had me deep d...

Behind-The-Scenes: Starfield

Here's some notes on my Starfield video!

This was honestly such an easy to video to make. To the point where I think I could have gotten it out even sooner if I hadn't procrastinated for a couple days. Taking away the green screen element and recording troubles that come wi...

Behind-The-Scenes: Avatar

Here's some notes on my Avatar video!

I personally love the backdrop I added last minute. Some nice color-corrected jungle footage turned out really good. Though I did have to turn the layer off to edit without it constantly buffering, so I forgot to add a drop shadow to so...
