July Update (Patreon)

As we move into the second half of the year, I've come to the realization that I need to step back and re-evaluate my content. If any of you saw my backlog of video ideas, then you know that there's, well... a lot. Some I started a long time ago but never finished, and some are just ideas that popped into my head recently. My brain is weird, because sometimes I'll get a vague idea for a discussion, and won't realize until later that it's not really something I can actually talk about for 5 minutes. So I have to start asking myself "is this interesting enough for a video?" and "how much do I want to talk about this?"

Obviously I'm not going to quit covering non-Spyro-related things, but I can't help but miss the Reignited days, just talking about something that meant a lot to me, when every video felt genuine. And I just know when Spyro 4 drops I'm going to feel like that all over again, and I'm so excited. Crazy to think how this one game could mean a couple years' worth of new content. 

I've also decided to take some of the pressure off myself by no longer taking suggestions. While I did appreciate them, more often than not I would turn things down because I just didn't think it would be that entertaining. Or rather, I didn't think /I/ could find a way to make it entertaining because of my limited knowledge. 

I need to start making content for me again as well as for my audience. There needs to be a balance.
