So it seems like there hasn't been any new news about the schedule change at work and it's going along as planned. I have been thinking about it and I feel like it could let me stream daily on Twitch for at least an hour. I don't know how that will effect my uploads on Youtube, but I might ease that if it means I can stream. I might just do older games, though I still want to do Hylics 2... Maybe on Youtube?
Just random thinking for now..
So it seems that the idea at work is to shift from 4 10-hour shifts to 5 8-hour shifts, with the start time being earlier, and then we will end earlier. This means I could do the Friday the 13th Killer Puzzle earlier and closer to the day change than I have done now. However this means that I will be working Friday so I don't really know how that will effect my recording schedule yet. I was planning on starting to stream as well, but I could always move that to another day in the weekend.
The change isn't immediate - it will be in 2 weeks, but it is up in the air so it could change. Doesn't seem like it, but it could change.
I really want to go back to some of the older games that I played before, like No Man's Sky. I even want to do an update to The Crew 2 and see how much it changed since launch. Then there are the newer, unplayed games that I want to try out. Just a matter of having the time over the weekend, and when to upload. If I had more time to record, I still would want to limit myself to one a day, since I believe the algorithm changed so it doesn't really benefit if I do multiple a day, but who knows? I wonder if I will ever have the time to do 2 a day lol... Then I definitely won't have time to stream if that is the case, which I do want to stream. I just need to find the right time and games. There is Hylics 2, and maybe Loop Hero. Maybe some older stuff as well?
I ordered some Jelly POM keycaps (maybe imitation?) from Aliexpress not too long ago and they arrived! Much quicker than the 45 estimated days. I only tried a few of them on since I was going to use them on an upcoming mechanical keyboard. It took some effort to put them on and take them off - much more than the HyperX pudding keycaps. The HyperX was smooth to put on but the POMs weren't. Nothing broke while I put them on or took them off so that is good. It also came with a keycap puller that seems better than the one HyperX provided. I don't know if the official ones are more smooth or easier to put on the switches, but these are fine.
And with that, another month of daily uploads!
That being said, I am thinking about uploading only during the weekdays, while having Sat/Sun be stream days. I am leaning to Youtube Gaming, rather than Twitch, to try it out again. Seeing what happened to Ronnie Radke's stream got me a little annoyed... how are they going to mute his stuff for playing music that he created? Just seems weird. Not to mention the Blizzcon thing with the music.
Why can't I do both? Mainly because I would be streaming at times I would be normally uploading my videos. Uploading takes some bandwidth, and I can't really do both. I tried before and it was a mess.
Hylics 2 is a game I really want to stream, rather than record. It just seems like it is *that* kind of game to get live reactions for. Also have some others, like maybe continuing some MMOs like Guild Wars 2 and World of Warcraft. I still need to finish Borderlands 3 as well. Maybe some racing stuff.
I guess until I finally decide to do so, I will just continue uploading stuff daily to my Youtube. Slay the Spire has been pretty fun and challenging, and I've been also doing Honkai, and some random ones for the weekend/whenever. I wish it could be every other day, alternating with Slay the Spire, but Slay the Spire has been drawing my attention currently. I was thinking about Valheim, but that feels more like a streaming game or a heavily edited video, since it would just be a lot of gathering.
Well I guess that's it for this post/update. Don't really know what else to add.
