Happy New Year! I know, I’m about a week too late on that one but I feel like I’m finally starting to get back in the swing of things after being away over Christmas.
Hope you all had a good one and are looking forward to the year ahead!
Yesterday I sat down and recorded my first movie reaction! I decided to start with Guardians of the Galaxy, since it was directed by James Gunn (who also directed my fave movie from last year - Superman).
I’ll be posting the reaction video to Patreon early for everyone in ‘The Early Bird’ and ‘The Full Journey’ tiers, and the Full Journey-ers will also be getting the full, unedited watch-along version of the reaction. I’m new to this, so I appreciate your patience as I figure it all out!
The gaming plan this week starts with heading back to Skyrim today. With Minecraft in the mix now, it feels like we are back to only playing Skyrim once a week, which doesn’t feel like enough 🙁 So I need to figure that out. Does anyone know how I can get some more time?
Tomorrow, I’ll finally be starting Halo Infinite! The last of the Halo games for my first playthrough of the franchise - what a great journey it has been. I’ve decided to multi-stream this one rather than editing it down for YouTube from Twitch vods. The YouTube streams have just been doing so well lately, that I feel like I should continue multi-streaming my playthroughs and then maybe focusing on more dedicated content for actual YouTube videos (maybe silly challenge runs, trying to discover new things etc).
For Sunday, I’m undecided if I should play more Skyrim or Minecraft. I think, really I need another stream so I can do two Skyrim and one Minecraft. It’s been nice how well received (mainly) the Minecraft playthrough has been so far, so I would really like to continue it. But I also want to continue making good progress through Skyrim, so that we can eventually start Baldur’s Gate 3! WAAAhh too many games not enough time.
Overall, it’s been a good start to the year. I still feel like I’m finding my feet with the part-time schedule but it feels good to be focusing more of my time on the things I love.
Thanks for everything, gang!
