Hey Masters, so as you know I experimented with a fictional topic on the last vid, the videogame Morrowind. I wanted to explain the rationale and gather some vital input if you'd like to share any.
As I said in the vid's pinned comment, I got compelled to try fiction after the Israel vid got Age-Restricted. Sadly that is an ever looming reality and threat any video that takes an "Unbiased" take on any serious real issue is prone to. Age-Restriction alone both demonetizes and nukes a video's visibility for those unaware. The restriction was later removed, but no explanation was given. Its hard to live of off making videos if at any time a month's worth of work can be randomly deprived in an instant without any control.
In a way, it leaves me choosing between either living with this threat, or abandoning my kind of "unbiased" humour. Both outcomes are rather crap, so I saw a potential opportunity with fictional topics.
With Morrowind's Unbiased Review I was able to worry far less about threading a line over what can, and cannot be joked about, and opens windows to many topics. From other games like Warhammer 40k or Witcher, to series like Game of Thrones, movies like Star Wars, LOTR, and even anime like Attack on Titan, shows like Avatar, and so on. Just giving examples.
It was very fun and liberating making Morrowind's vid, both because of the increased creative freedom and cause Morrowind, like other fictional topics, fits well within a partisan analysis. And in the end what drives me most is making videos that I myself would love to watch, hoping others will to.
That said hope isn't enough. The Morrowind video, at the time of this post is doing fine, but I would need to hear if my donators, the big reason why I'm able to work on this, would at all be interested in more Unbiased Reviews in the future. If so, I'd be re-establishing the voting for videos topic's which we had going in the past, but it will be far more frequent, with each video standing on its own. I still love history and both could and would make more Unbiased History. As for Unbiased Reviews, the plan is to leverage their advantedge to post more frequently, my ideal goal being between ever 3 to 4 weeks. Might take some getting used to, though.
Post your thoughts here, I'll read them all and reply as best I can.
Thanks.
