Moving Forward: A Channel "Update"
8If you're reading this and you haven't watched the video yet, first of all keep in mind that everything you're about to hear only relates to streams and not my other types of content. The rest of this video description will expand upon the contents of the video further, so please watch it first.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ok, so allow me to elaborate:
1. You may have noticed that the word "update" is in quotations in the title. This is because hardly anything is actually changing for this channel. Still, I felt compelled to make this video because of the expectations that I may have unintentionally built by playing two certain games on this channel: BotW and TotK. I don't know how many of my viewers actually needed to see this announcement, but I've seen enough game recommendations from young children to know that having a catalog of content from mostly T and M-rated games isn't enough. It's important to be able to look at a channel for only a few seconds and tell what the target audience is. This is my first step towards getting things back on track.
2. I am aware that there are still kids 12 or under who will watch my channel even after seeing this video, and this is fine because that's not the point. The important thing is that everyone is on the same page from here on out.
3. I'm aware that my Venn diagram is far from flawless in illustrating what games I will choose to exclude from my streaming palate, but I believe it does a good enough job of it. The important thing to remember is that I will be heavily weighing such traits in games from now on because the last thing I want is to give viewers the wrong idea again.
4. Streaming TotK has also taught me that if a game has a story worth caring about then it would probably be better not to stream it (especially if the game is super popular... worse if it's popular with kids). These kinds of games would work better as recorded let's plays.
Anyway, thank you for watching this video and reading my explanation. I will repeat: I did not intend to mislead anyone into thinking that this is a kids' channel or that I would be playing more Nintendo games. I apologize to anyone who ever thought otherwise but I hope you understand. I still look forward to making plenty more fun memories here!
