HELLO! Sorry it's been forever. Right now I'm preparing to go to Midwest Gaming Classic in Milwaukee, and I'm running around like a crazy person trying to get everything done that needs to be done before I go. I've been feeling particularly guilty about not doing a lot of stuff for you guys lately, so I'm looking to check "Patreon blog" off my list.
Future videos! I don't have a whole ton of solid details at the moment. My Yoshi's Crafted World review will go up tomorrow. Then some days after that I'll put up the complete version of my Zelda review. It's got a new intro so that should be slightly fun...ish? After that I'm hoping we get a Nintendo Direct. It seems like the right time for one. February to June seems like a very long time without Nintendo giving us anything, and they always seem to do one for Spring sometime, so I'm thinking it will happen. I just hope super duper extra badly that it's on Wednesday, because if it's on Thursday I'll be traveling all day, and that would definitely not be cool.
Beyond that...I wish I knew! One of the things I need to do over the next few days actually is to come up with one or two ideas, write the scripts, do some shooting and preliminary editing, and get them to Kane for full editing before I leave so that he's working on them while I'm gone and we don't get super behind. Fortunately I just ordered a laptop and it will be here before I leave, so I'll be able to do more work while I'm away. I didn't initially want a work laptop because I wanted to actually get away from the PC every once in a while, but with so many trips this year it only makes sense that I'm able to do actual work beyond writing scripts and answering emails while I'm on the go and in hotels. So that's kinda cool.
While I don't know what the next videos will be, I did decide that I would like to do a video talking about what the heck Retro Studios might be working on right now. So hey, maybe that will be one of the ones I work on next, who knows!
So here's something exciting! As you may have noticed in my April Fools video (which was a ton of fun, by the way) and as you will most certainly notice in the Yoshi review, I got a new camera! The image quality is now so much better that I'm straight up embarrassed by the stuff I've been doing, haha. I'm also making the jump to 60fps, and I was a little hesitant before but I think it looks really good. This is Arlo 2.0, baby! We're gettin' MODERNIZED! So look forward to all my stuff looking better from now on!
So have any of you guys been enjoying the return of Arlo Plays? I still can't make any promises about if I'll be able to keep this up forever, but I'm editing the Pikmin 3 finale right now and I'm getting ready to upload a few weeks worth of Super Mario Odyssey! It's been a ton of fun, so I definitely hope I can keep it up. Unfortunately I'll have to slow the upload schedule back to weekdays for Mario. The one-a-day thing was okay for Pikmin 3 because those episodes were short, but for now I need to slow down a bit.
Sorry I don't have much. I wanted to do an Arlocast but I think I'll wait until after Midwest Gaming Classic in case I want to talk about that in the cast. Thanks so much to any and all new patrons since last time though! You're all seriously amazing!
Have a good one!!! :D
