Video Progress + First Round of Questions (Patreon)
Content
I've beaten NecroVisioN and the Lost Company standalone prequel along with most of the challenge maps. Several who told me about NecroVisioN were really hyping up Lost Company, and while it's a lot better balanced it has its own special issues that I'll be going into soon. The video is a good way into editing and is on track for the usual Friday release. The only thing that'll be new to take up time from the usual process is making the format for the credits at the end. Once that part is done it'll be very simple to do in future videos once I have an easy template made, and the task of making it at all shouldn't be too hard.
This part is more important for future people reading this, but I'll put it here anyways. Credits for videos will be on a "per month" basis. So if someone starts backing for the credit tier in June, due to the way the website is setup for processing I won't be putting them in until July. So if you're a Benefactor 2 reading this and it's still May, your name will be in the upcoming video. I'll be exporting a file of all the current people at that tier at the beginning of the month, and then I'll do the same at the beginning of every month afterwards. This is to prevent a constant shuffle around of names, plus it represents accurately who helped finance the video. After all, if someone backs mid-June for credits I'm not actually going to get paid by them until July and they could always back out before then.
Second, I'll have a mini Q&A during the credits of videos from now on since it seems to be the best option at the moment. This will make all the credits from now on between a minute to a minute and a half and will serve to replace update videos entirely unless something drastic happens. If you have a question you'd like to see answered in the ending, just leave it on this or any future video progress post that has a "video faq" tag on it. To avoid repeat questions, if someone has the same one just click the like button on it in the comments. This will make it a lot more manageable if it's under one post, so I can scroll through it easily without needing to dig through the community tab. The ones I use won't be only the top voted ones, but it's a good way for me to gauge what would be an interesting one to have. Keep in mind it would be ideal to have something general viewers might also be interested in, so technical questions about why "X-Ray 1.6 has Stopped Working" likely won't get in.
SEE YOU FRIDAY
