Channel Update (Patreon)
Content
Hey everybody, I wanted to give you all an update with plans I've got for the channel and some things that will be changing now or in the near future!
First of all, I hope you've noticed it but I've been drastically increasing my video output over the last weeks! I think I'm currently doing around 10-12 videos a week and I hope to be able to keep this pace up.
One decision I've made is that for main shows I choose to react to from here on out, I'm gonna do at least two episodes a week. In the past months I had started a bunch of shows like Mushoku Tensei, Re:Zero, It's Always Sunny and FMAB initially doing them all once a week, but I just came to realize it's better for both myself as well as my viewers to do less shows while covering more episodes simultaniously. Obviously, I've already increased uploads to twice a week for Re:Zero & It's Always Sunny. Mushoku Tensei will probably have to sit out the weekly schedule seeing as we're getting somewhat close to the current end point anyway, FMAB I might be able to increase soon.
Another decision that I've made for productivity reasons and to allow for the greater number of videos, is that most reaction videos are going to include only one talking segment from here on out. I will keep the intro sections, but reviews after episodes are going to disappear. I might make exceptions for some episodes (like premieres and finales). I usually record episodes in bulk now and I already find that I'm basically repeating my outro and intro talks a lot, plus I noticed that the reviews after episodes tend to get less than half the amount of watch time as the intro talks do. It's basically a waste that gets in the way of me being able to make more content so I hope it's understandable! Obviously, I will continue to cover as many of my thoughts as I possibly can in the intros and always reflect on the previous episodes to take everything into account.
Reaction requests and new weekly show reactions are going to be an exception to all of this! The currently requested shows like No Game No Life, Fate/Zero, Great Teacher Onizuka and Harley Quinn as well as new shows Jujutsu Kaisen & Spy x Family will continue to have intro and outro talks as these are shows I only do once a week or month. The reaction requests have been a great success so far and I especially want to thank Julian, floxer, Ugly Pig & Jojo for generously supporting my channel with these and allowing me to put all this time into the content! I hope to have more slots available soon, or perhaps an option to request an entire season of a show at once as has been asked about to me by some of you. When I do, I'll let you all know here on the Patreon feed!
As I'm sure you've all noticed, Patreon has also been making some changes to their website. I'm going to do some experimenting with the new "free" option, trying to bring people over from YouTube to Patreon by giving them one week of early access. This won't really affect any of you who are already here, except that some of you will notice you'll start receiving an additional notification post summarizing all the new content on a daily basis. This is something that gold early access members already used to receive from me every day as they weren't getting notifications when I updated access to old posts otherwise. I'm also putting up another post today for free members with links to their content, but this will all be irrelevant for you all as you've long seen these videos.
Okay, that should cover about all. I hope all these small changes make sense and I'm sure for most of you it hardly means much anyway as you're just here to enjoy the reactions which I totally understand! Thank you all for the continued support. I'll continue to look into ways to up my game, like new content formats or increasing the output even more! If you have any questions, don't hesitate to reach out in the comments or via DM! Thanks again :)
