Hi everyone,
Ok so I'm thinking about making some big changes to Patreon, and I'd really appreciate your input.
For a while now, I've been thinking about what's next. On the reviews and previews front, things are going well and I've been really happy to have Austin now contributing reviews. I think he's doing a fantastic job and the ...
2023-10-13 05:40:07 +0000 UTC View PostWell, it's finally here. Check out my Death Stranding review if you haven't had a chance (it's spoiler free!):

So it's been a big two weeks and I wanted to provide a quick update on how things are going!
The Outer Worlds
So my Outer Worlds review is now live: https://youtu.be/xb7Am7VtzLQ
Man, what a great game. Just...wonderful. I lo...
2019-10-25 02:26:05 +0000 UTC View PostHi everyone,
Well it’s been a while since I’ve given you an update. Let’s explain all that:
Where have you been?
I’ve been doing my thing – reviewing games on the reg, streaming on Twitch intermittently, doing Laymen almost daily. You know, same old.
So…how come you haven’t bee...
2019-09-30 00:38:30 +0000 UTC View PostI’ve spent the last few days playing Just Cause 4 with the intention of reviewing it. I like it. It’s fun, but it’s not a game I’ve been able to develop a meaningful connection to, and as a result I’ve opted to just pen a few words here. There simply wasn’t a video in me when it comes to this game.
Just Cause 4 is what you’d g...
2018-12-04 03:11:56 +0000 UTC View PostPatrons,
Man, this game is kicking my arse right now. I'm 45 hours deep on a main-quest only run through and I'm STILL not done.
If value for money is what you look for, then AC:Od delivers it in spades, but to be honest, I just thi...
2018-10-01 11:00:17 +0000 UTC View PostPatrons!
I'd like to stay in touch with you a little more over the coming months. We're coming into release season now, with the heavy hitters of 2018 about to be released. Where I review something, I'll try to shoot out a brief note so you know where I'm at on a specific title.
For Forza, I have to say that while I enjoyed this title...
2018-09-25 07:00:14 +0000 UTC View PostHi everyone,
Long time, no update. I spent all of August travelling, and pretty much all of September playing Forsaken so that I could prepare the review. It's finally finished, and I wanted to send it with a quick note of thanks:

Hi everyone,
Something I'm trialing are short, relaxed post-script videos supporting my major drops. I want to make this stuff available exclusively to Patrons and YouTube sponsors.
The intent is just to connect with you guys on a more personal level. The way I do content is very 'highly produced' and I'd like to do some stuff connect...
2018-02-10 22:50:17 +0000 UTC View PostI wasn’t sure this day would ever come but I’m now, officially, a YouTuber in every sense of the word. I quit my job and this is now both my passion and my career.
For two years now I’ve been working roughly 18 hours a day, 7 days a week, nearly every day of the year. Between working a full time job and putting everything I could into...
2018-01-06 01:24:38 +0000 UTC View PostWhatever it is you're celebrate, I hope you're spending it in good company and with some good games waiting for you once all the eating is done. It's been an amazing year and I want to thank all of you for the incredible support you've shown me. It's been amazing, and it is more important to me than ever since I plan to go full time on youtub...
2017-12-24 13:56:35 +0000 UTC View PostThis has been a big week. 7 days ago I published my review of Destiny 2's first expansion, The Curse of Osiris (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aEEUJ4hSwwI&t=25s) and I'm not at all exaggerating when I say that it was more underwhelming that I could h...

It’s been a crazy 2 weeks so I wanted to provide a brief update on what’s going on:

Long time no speak- hope you've been well :)
This week I manged to push out two videos- one about a game I care very deeply about, and another about a game I came to care about a lot more than I thought I would...
Wolfenstein II is the best movie I've seen all year
Hi Patrons,
It's been a very crazy few weeks since PoE launched. I was on holiday at first, and then at PAX, and now having spent dozens of hours in the Plains, I feel ready to review the experience as a whole.
It's a mixed bag- it expands the game in a meaningful and valuable way, particularly in the core combat loop and the boss des...
2017-11-03 12:26:31 +0000 UTC View PostPatrons,
I’ve been on holidays for two weeks, and during that time I did a LOT of thinking. I have a lot of ideas swirling but I want some advice, and I think you would be the best people to ask.
Beginnings...
I began this channel covering Tom Clancy’s The Division. And one of the ways that I got big fast, was tha...
2017-10-18 03:35:29 +0000 UTC View PostHi Patrons,
I've come to really value these updates to you all. It's akin to a 'Dear Diary' moment each week, which is welcome moment of pause and reflection given how constantly crazy my life is.
The Destiny 2 review is done (thank god)
Hey Patrons,
It’s been a while since I provided an update, so I wanted to touch base on a few things.
Destiny 2 has all but consumed me this week
You’ve probably noticed I’ve been light on the uploads- that’s because I’ve been playing Destiny 2 every spare minute I’ve had (aka when not at work or sleeping)...
2017-09-15 13:13:45 +0000 UTC View PostHi everyone,
It's over a week since I first put up the Patreon and the generosity of people has been astounding. It's the best start I could have hoped for and gives me a huge amount of confidence that one day (not yet, but one day!) I'll be able to devote my full self to this, and just focus on putting out the best content I can, every day.

Hey Patrons,
Just a quick note to let you know that I'm not the only one making this sort of transition to Patreon. Many other creators are facing the same challenges as I, and noticing this Forbes reached out to me to ask what drove the decision.
If you're interested to learn more about how YouTube's approach to monetisation is pushi...
2017-08-23 07:53:24 +0000 UTC View PostWell the Patreon has been live for a few hours now, and I just wanted to say a huge thank you to those of you who’ve lent your support.
I’d really like this Patreon community space to be a place where I can share what’s going on with my channel (and with my life more broadly). I don’t know how that conversation will unfold, but I know Iâ€...
