Let's round off the holiday season with some festive shame!
I've mentioned a few times over the years how I've actually been making game reviews since the early days of YouTube. Well, for your viewing pleasure(?), I've unearthed that which ought not to be unearthed. So fix yourself a rum punch, hot cocoa, or coffee depending on your time z...
2025-12-19 02:00:17 +0000 UTC View PostHowdy folks,
I'm usually not a fan of doing these minor updates where the entire purpose is to let you know that I'm alive, but I figured it might be appropriate here. We've passed the two month mark since the last video dropped, which is a longer gap between videos than I prefer.
To cut to the chase: editing is well underway for the...
2025-12-04 19:54:14 +0000 UTC View PostHey everyone,
I don't have a ton of new stuff to update you on, but I just wanted to touch base and let you know that I'm still chugging away on the next video. I initially thought Serpent Isle would be a fairly simple project, since I covered most of the engine nuances in the Ultima VII video. WOW I was wrong. It's looking like this is go...
2025-09-09 21:44:41 +0000 UTC View PostHowdy Patrons!
It's been a minute since the last update, so I figured I'd fill everybody in on the video topics I've been kicking around the old noggin.
First of all, I'll probably continue with this "one video Ultima, one video not-Ultima" thing I've been doing this year. Seems to be a good balance. It's crazy to reflect on how much...
2025-06-25 00:04:44 +0000 UTC View PostMan, the Build engine has so much to offer... do we really want to stop at TekWar? I sure don't. That's why I'm digging into the history of Build to bring you, my illustrious Patrons, a savory collection of Build Engine game minireviews! Duke Nukem 3D, Blood, Shadow Warrior, and many more. I'll attempt to answer the question: Which Build game is...
2025-05-16 20:46:52 +0000 UTC View Post9 books, 4 movies, a comic book series, 18 episodes of a TV show, and one notorious video game later, the TekWar retrospective is done and dusted!
Should be available on YouTube by tomorrow if I don't get copyright dinged. Enjoy!

Howdy folks, this is episode 2 of our music podcast. Didn't quite manage to polish off every track, so we'll have a few more for next time.
If you're wondering specifically whether or not your track was covered in this episode, here's a ...
2025-03-29 20:00:34 +0000 UTC View PostHowdy Patrons,
Mere moments ago I made a Dark Cloud video public. Sorry for not being communicative about it up until this point, but the video was meant to be a surprise for my buddy! I didn't really want to write out an update and have emails/notifications sent to everyone just for me to ambiguously say "I'm working on a video right now"...
2025-02-14 22:35:35 +0000 UTC View PostHey folks, threw together a reflection video for the end of the year. To preface, the "editing" here is minimal to say the least, so this could be a good one to listen to while you're doing chores, going for a walk, or playing Bubble Bobble.
In this video, I talk about each of my videos from 2024 (as well as one that's yet to be released),...
2024-12-29 08:31:05 +0000 UTC View PostHey folks, I mentioned a while ago that I would put up all of the tracks that Uncle Willy has composed for my videos. I wish I could offer them all in a high quality lossless format, but a lot of the source files have been lost. For the most part these are 320kbps MP3s which should be serviceable to any non-audiophiles who are interested in the ...

2024-11-30 01:22:50 +0000 UTC View PostJust going over some stuff regarding next video(s) and the music podcast.
TL;DR
I've been sick which has annoyingly been preventing me from recording narration for the next video for like a week. Been taking the opportunity to chip away at other stuff. Hoping my voice is sounding better in the next few days.

2024-11-12 20:10:43 +0000 UTC View PostThis video was supposed to be like, 90 minutes, but I kept stumbling across new games to talk about and... well, you know the drill by now. Go big or go home. Hope you enjoy this spooky October special!
Note: The video was processing as of the posting of this on Patreon. I don't know if Patreon alerts you all to unprocessed videos, but if...
Howdy folks,
Hope you enjoyed/will enjoy the Ultima VI video. I know I'd mentioned in an earlier update that I'll be diving straight into Worlds of Ultima as my next video, but I just realized that it's autumn. You know what that means, don't you?

2024-09-14 20:28:55 +0000 UTC View PostHey there folks.
Just wanted to give a brief update on what's coming next. The first draft of the Ultima 6 script is finished, which means I've just got to give it another pass or two before recording begins, then editing, then Ultima 6! I'd imagine we're looking at a release somewhere in the middle of September.
There are some small...

Thanks for being there for the channel. I hope you enjoy this co...
2024-07-26 06:21:13 +0000 UTC View PostAaaand here we have it! A collection of reviews, impressions and analyses on a whack of Sega Saturn RPGs. This video wasn't originally going to be such a long 'un, but I really ended up loving some of these games and had plenty to say about them as a result.
I hope you enjoy the video!
(P.S. Expect another Patron-exclusive bonus in t...
2024-07-25 20:36:41 +0000 UTC View PostHey folks,
I figured that, since there hasn't been an update in a month or so, I'd chime in to let you know how the Sega Saturn video is going.
ITS LONG
I'm just finishing up the first draft of the script. Under normal circumstances, I'd be well into editing by now... but these aren't normal circumstances. I'm taking a look at ...
2024-07-01 23:44:29 +0000 UTC View PostAs mentioned in a previous update, I'll be taking a small break from Ultima to do a video about some RPGs on the Sega Saturn. Think a series of smaller reviews ala the 3DO video. The games I'll be covering in this video run the gamut from well-loved...

Firstly, I just finished a Q&A video. You can find it here:

2024-03-20 00:49:55 +0000 UTC View PostHowdy folks, it's been a while since I did a Patreon update so I wanted to let people know how everything is going.
You can probably guess from the title that the next video in the works is for Ultima IV: Quest of the Avatar. This is regarded as one of the single-most important RPGs ever made, so I'm taking the research and writing very se...
2024-03-19 22:22:00 +0000 UTC View PostHey everybody, figured it'd be a good time for an update what with the new Patrons and all.
First of all, thanks for all the support. Akalabeth/Ultima I I wasn't the best performing video, so I didn't really know what to expect but UItima II has had some good viewership and really positive feedback! To be clear, I do not care about perform...

Hey folks. As some of you know, I did a podcast several months ago for I Finished A Video Game's Patreon where he, Sean Seanson & I discussed our experiences playing through Vagrant Story. It was very casual and fun, but I think we had a pretty interesting conversation (and some meta conversations). I'm reposting the link here so that people...

Today, I'm taking a look back at an NES adventure game with some horror elements that really stuck with me over the years. In doing so, I remember what it means to find (and lose) friend...
2023-12-22 00:44:11 +0000 UTC View PostHowdy everyone!
It's been far too long since I've done an update, so with the new year upon us, I figured it'd be fun to reflect on my channel's year, video by video. Before that, I just want to say the usual thank you for your continued support of my channel. Your help is what makes years like this possible, I won't ever take it for grant...

My brother has composed some awesome tracks for me to use in my videos. I figured I'd compile them into an album so they can be heard in all of their glory. Working on getting lossless files available for download, if you're interested in that. Enjoy!
