Greetings, Been shaking things up a little on the channel. I've unlisted all but the first episode of a bunch of let's play series. You can still watch them if you go to the playlist for the game, but if you do a Youtube search for the game + my name, you'll only see the first episode.

The games in question are: Satisfactory, Squadrons, Titanfall 2, Dyson Sphere Program (time lapses are still public), Prey, X4, No Man's Sky, Signalis, 40K Daemon Hunters, Everspace 2, Starfield, Space Marine and the first few series of Mechwarrior 5 (the versions of the game you can't play anymore).

It's a bit of a gamble, but I hope it'll stop youtube from offering videos to people who have no reason to click on them.

A Heavy Gear game getting announced 26 years after the last one?
I did *not* have that on my bingo card!
In the words of a wise senator: "A surprise to be sure, but a welcome one."

Tried streaming yesterday for the first time in 5+ year
VOD is available on my second channel: youtube.com/@portablecalm
and the game I played was Battletech Extended: Tactics (going through the campaign again)

Expect scuff... and lots of it. until I nail down all the things surrounding streaming.

No new video today.
I just moved apartments and overexerted myself and got the flu. it's been a week and a half since the move and I still haven't had the energy to re-build my computer yet. (Fever's gone now, at least, but my voice is still shaky)...
You'll get a new episode of Battletech Extended tomorrow (Monday) and on Wednesday.

Going forward, I'll be releasing fewer videos per week (3 to be more precise)... they'll focus on First Impressions, reviews, and mod highlights.
and for the Let's Play content... I think that would work better as a streaming thing. We'll see.

Either way, keep safe everyone!

Welp, it finally happened... I got hacked.
They set up and completed a steam market trade without my input. Cleaned out my Steam Wallet... and for good measure also made my Twitter spam bitcoin stuff.
I completely formatted my computer and reinstalled windows (it was about time).

It'll be a little while before I start MechWarrior 4: Vengeance.
Partly because I'm pretty sick right now (flu, I think), and partly because Mechwarrior 5: Solaris Showdown is coming on March 14th.
So you'll get something a little bit different tomorrow. I hope you'll like it, even though it is pretty linear.

In celebration of 2 500 subscribers, how about a Q&A video?

Ask Any question, about any thing.

Here's a few examples of common questions I've already decided to answer:
"Are you Skallagrim? You sound just like him!"
"Will you return to [Name of Game]?"
"How do you record your videos?"

... and that's the last episode of Starfield for a while.

Going forward I'll play three games:
Battletech Extended
MechCommander Gold
and Mech 5: The Dragon's Gambit

Once MechCommander finishes, I'll start doing first impressions and reviews instead for that spot.
Once Dragon's Gambit is done, I'll switch to the Mechwarrior 3: Pirate's Moon expansion, followed by MechCommander: Desperate Measures.

and that's basically my schedule for the foreseeable future.

Oh yeah, you'll also be getting 9 videos per week.
1 video on weekdays, 2 on Saturday and Sunday.
