Howdy readers! I figured it might be a good idea to put a post up on the site to plug some of the content we’ve been releasing outside of the website — since not all of it is necessarily worth writing up individual posts for on this end. As always, the best way to stay up to date on what we’re up to is by following our Twitter, where I do try to keep all y’all filled in on my goings-ons on a day-to-day basis.
For one – following a nearly year-long hiatus – we’ve returned to a regular streaming schedule on Twitch! As long as we’re able to maintain it, we’ll be streaming at 6:00 PM (PST) every Thursday and Saturday. The subjects of Thursday’s streams will be decided by Twitter polling, while Saturday streams will be subject either to polls on our Patreon and / or continuing previously-started games. For the time being, stream archives will also be exclusive to patrons; as I’m not currently looking to greatly expand the audience, and as I’m still not entirely comfortable with my voice in its current state.
On the aforementioned Patreon front: We’re currently looking into more along the lines of exclusive content. While new articles will continue to never be locked [even temporarily] behind the paywall; I’m currently considering something like a short-form podcast, where I can discuss stuff like games I’m currently playing or writing about in a more direct format. In addition to whatever comes out of that brainstorming, we’ll also be doing more regular polling to determine Twitch streams and upcoming article subjects. Access to all that and more is available from the $1 a month tier, in an effort to make them available to any and all interested.
It still feels weird to me to be locking anything behind our Patreon — even at the lowest possible tier. But moreso than whatever money we might make from it, the primary motivation for it is to curate and catalogue content I’m not yet entirely comfortable putting out publicly. Namely, anything incorporating my voice, due to reasons. Hell, maybe I’ll put up a Patreon post in the coming days to better explain these particular anxieties of mine. All that being said, I do apologize to anyone who takes umbrage with the idea of exclusive content, and completely understand anyone who can’t commit to a subscription to it. I only hope that you can continue to look forward to articles continuing to go up here on the website.
