The Disappearance of I've Played Videos

FAILURE

Yeah... I guess this is more of an announcement than an actual post. The jist of my current situation is... I don't think I'm going to be posting on this blog with too many other I've Played videos. I've got a few reasons for this...

  1. It takes way too long to make these. I've been finding that after playing the game for around... 45 minutes to 1 hour, I'd also have to spend 3+ hours typing up whatever thoughts I have of the game, and that doesn't include the time spent on the images for the posts. I really don't feel like spending that amount of time on a post somewhat regularly... especially with all I've got going between work, school, and LPing.
  2. I've wanted to play other games, as well. Since November is THE month for games that I want, I'm probably going to be spending time on those ones instead of Animal Crossing or Deadly Premonition. Since my two favorite games are Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion and Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker, Skyrim and Skyward Sword are SO tempting as sequels to those games.
  3. Apparently, Deadly Premonition has only one slot for a save file. I went and played Deadly Premonition with a good friend a while ago. We started a new game and got considerably far into the first chapter, which is much further than I've gotten in the "I've Played" parts. When we saved, it wrote over the other save file... so now I've got that file that's further than the other ones.
  4. I've just been more interested in posting other things. I'm not saying that I'm going to stop posting I've Played videos on this blog outright... but I just don't want to make it a series sort of blog entry. Maybe if I made I've Played into pseudo-reviews or something... that would be alright. It's just something I have to consider later.

That's about it for this entry. As I said, it's not the end of I've Playing, it's more so a heads up to all of you readers that I'm probably not continuing I've Played videos as a series. If there's a gameplay session that stands out, I might very well do one... but it's not 100% likely.

Also, as a plug, in case SOMEHOW you're unaware about this... we're streaming on most Saturdays until December 24th as holiday donation streams to charity. It's at http://www.twitch.tv/bladesofgaming and it'll be fun times!

  1. I AM SLIGHTLY DISAPPOINT. =[
    They were fun to read...
    But I know that they can take a long time to write. Hopefully you can post a little about any new games that come up or give us short reviews or something. :3
