Hey everyone, I'll be brief.
For the last two and a half months I’ve been trying several ways to continue the unbiased Roman narrative as closely as it was through the restrictions that inhibited it, I even more I wanted to improve my craft, I learned a bunch of new animation tricks, made improved higher res models, fully drawn maps and items, detailed scenes, and all sorts stuff I’ve meaning to try, better fires and son on.. But… The restrictions I had to work with on this video were so brutal for the kinds of videos I make that… I just couldn’t make anything I was happy with…
To slowly grow to hate the video you’ve spent so much effort into, to think several times its about to be finished, only to finally be honest with yourself, and realize most of it is neither funny, informative, engaging… yeah… Since I was playing with new ways to things, I was plagued with infuriating technical bugs crippling whole sections of the video, and again and again had to remake them. Working non-stop at it, day after day, and after my SSD got a very rare bug, meaning I had to re-do like 35% of the video… which I thought was crap… For the fifth time… I stopped and asked myself: If I force myself to do this yet again, will I ever want to make videos again? And when my brain just began screaming curse words back at me… I knew I had lost. The video was a failure.
I didn't want to post videos that, tho relatively visually impressive, given previous standards, i just didn't like them. Videos that had no soul.
What I realized was: I tried improving to many aspects of how I do things too fast. I’ve been killing myself making these 45 min documentaries one after the other. But most of all, my will to finish he unbiased Roman narrative in a way I liked was in direct opposition with the restrictions I had to work with on the setting it covered. These restrictions have been this massive ancor on my balls that has been crippling my mind and soul for too damn long, so thats I crushed them By doing this livestream
I wanted to provide closure for the roman narrative, it was important for me, I couldn't let go, and I hope it means something for others as well.
Its meant for everyone that’s watched the Two Unbiased Series on Rome and Byzantium. Having ended the roman narrative with it, I wanna both restore the old comedic fredoms I had by persuing other topics, and to try out new stuff man, lots on my mind.
Sorry for the inconvenience everyone, I know it’s not the upload you wanted to see.
Thanks for all the support, really needed it, you have no idea... And yeah, hopefully see you soon.
