In case y'all missed my updates during today's stream, here's a TLDR:
I want to continue making content, but its not a high priority due to personal stuff on my end.
I revealed a bit of what the "rebrand" will look like.
I still can't guarantee when / if I'll go back to a regular schedule of content because current living situation is still weird.
I meant to upload before August last year but lost motivation, might change video styles if I do upload in the future.
I still plan to upload old stream vods to the second channel as well as whatever other videos I feel like don't suit this channel.

Currently trying to think of what kind of video I want to make soon, it'll be a different kind of video for sure but I want to keep the same topic of the video I meant to upload in August.

Thanks again for 2k subs guys, I'm sorry for the inconsistency, life's a bitch, but we move on. Also I'm 27 now, forgot to post that yesterday was my birthday.

I appreciate every one of y'all that subscribed, y'all are awesome 🙌

Wow, 2K subs. I'm really grateful and appreciative. I really wish I had a video prepared since I haven't uploaded since April but truthly it has been a rough year and its still dragging into 2026. I have plans but until my motivation comes back, might still be a while until I upload again.

But seriously, I can't express how appreciative I am that you guys are still coming around despite my absence. Thank you again for 2,000 subs. Hopefully my motivation finds its way back to me this year!

Firstly, I do apologize for the lack of activity on this channel. The past couple of months have been rough on me mentally and searching for the motivation to work on videos is becoming harder and harder everyday.

I had this video cooked up for the past few months, finished script and all, and got a lot of the voice over done for it. But the motivation to actually edit it is another hurdle I have to get over at some point.

I thought maybe if I focused my efforts outside of my own personal ones that maybe I could find my motivation again. I started editing videos for ‪@GamesR2Hard‬ , you can find my work in their recent uploads. While it has gotten me back into the groove of working on videos again, I still don't even want to look at my next big video. I really need to stop making videos with a lot of research and long scripts. Not to mention I sat on it for too long that I need to rewrite the script a little bit because of new info.

The next thing I plan to try to get my motivation back is a "rebranding" of sorts. I don't want to give too many details yet but once I have all the assets ready, it might get me to actually work on the video again, so the start of this "rebrand" project will be with my next upload. Its not a name change or a content style change, but a visual change.

In terms of streaming, I have been really eager to stream again as of late, but my situation hasn't changed since my last update, but it might be in the next month or two. So depending on how well the next few weeks go for me, I might start streaming and uploading again. Regularly? Probably not, I can't promise that.

I haven't been checking my comments or statistics at all, so I don't know how everything's been going on this end, but honestly I think I want to keep it like that. I'm sure you guys are leaving nice and insightful comments but I just don't wanna see the bad ones when I'm looking for the good ones, not in my current mental state at least. But I have noticed that I am getting subs despite not uploading in a long time, so thank you for that! I still have an interest in uploading, I just can't promise a timeframe right now. If I find my motivation again, y'all will be the first to know.

Thanks for sticking around and reading this, Jelloriki 2.0 will be happening soon™.

Yo, been a while since I posted on here. I uploaded a new video today if you didn't see it. But I have another video cooking in the oven right now, its the Tron Bonne video I've been meaning to make for a while now. But once its done, I do want to transition into making exclusively Idea Factory and Sega content for a while. I've been playing a lot Sega games lately and been having a blast, been giving me a lot of new ideas too. I'll dabble into non-IF and Sega stuff occasionally but I think I primarily want to make videos focusing on their games and stuff.

I know exactly what video I want to make after the Tron Bonne one too so hopefully when that's done my creative motivation is high enough to actually get it out at a decent time. But anyway, I'm almost at 2k! Don't have anything planned for the milestone but that's still incredible! Thank you so much for your support, and remember if you want to support me even more, becoming a member is the best way to do that for me right now. Thank you again and I'll see you when the Tron Bonne video is out!

I know its been a while but I promise I'm working on the next video, its a big one but I'm slowly chipping away at it. Hoping to have it done before the end of the month.

In the meantime, I've left Twitter. But I'm being very active on BlueSky so go follow me on there for my ramblings: bsky.app/profile/jelloriki.bsky.social

So I think I might have ACTUALLY figured out what I want to do with my second channel. Originally I was thinking of just moving everything from there over to my main and deleting it but I've been using it as a dump for my stream vods that are just sitting in private so the new plan is simple: I'm going to look over my 4+ years of backlogged vods, turn any of them worth archiving into shorter videos, and any videos I have on there that I'd want on main I will move to main and vice versa. Meaning I'm going to, once again, reupload some things in a dumbass weird order.

But this is going to be a long process, combing over 4+ years of streaming backlog is a lot, but I have come up with a process that will allow me to focus on making new, main channel content, while also working on vods on the side. My main channel stuff will not be sacrificed for this long-term plan. I apologize for any confusion and just weird procedures I've done on YouTube, I was still trying to figure out what I wanted to do in the first place, but now I think I have a solid idea. I know exactly which videos I want to move over, but again, probably won't happen for a while.

If you wanna know why my upload schedule / stream schedule have been very spotty since the beginning of the year, a lot has happened. I lost my job, I moved, and have been getting a lot of pressure from family lately. Finding motivation for content creation has been hard because I still haven't found a new job since the move, and I've been really trying. I have considered maybe doing content creating full time for the time being, but again, finding the motivation to do anything has been hard.

The last update I did where I said I was gonna have more "fun" and casual uploads was just me making an excuse to not try as hard. I realize now that isn't what I want for this channel. This channel I want to look at and be proud of what I'm making and not just uploading for the sake of uploading (I fall into that habit a lot).

I can't guarantee I will upload more often as of now, but I can say that right now making videos is a sort of coping mechanism for me and its helping me get my mind off of things.

Thanks for being patient with me while I make stupid decisions and figure out what I even want to do with this platform. If you want to support me, the best way to do that right now is just continue watching my stuff, maybe become a member, spread my videos around, all the usual.

Thanks again, I'm working on several videos right now, don't know which one will go up next but if you want to see some random old stuff, I am currently uploading stuff onto my second channel. See ya in the next video👋

Okay, okay, fine, I'll upload something today, but I won't like it 😤

Hey guys! I know I haven't posted a lot lately, but I have been streaming on Twitch for the last few days (streaming right now in fact!)

Come in and say hi if you ever catch me live, no solid schedule yet, I'll try to stream when I can!

Alright, I know its been a while. So I guess I should do an update post.

My new job is very demanding of me and such I feel as if I have no time to work on videos or else sacrifice the only free time I'm allowed. I have not been working on a video since I got the position.

But having this job as given me time to reflect and review what I've done here so far. Honestly, its more than I ever thought I'd get to. 1.5k subs is pretty awesome and I love every single one of you for supporting me. Even while I haven't been uploading it still goes up which is amazing.

Unfortunately, I cannot guarantee I'll make another video, hell, I can't even guarantee this is something I even want to pursue anymore. I had time to think about what I actually want to do and content creation, as much as I enjoy doing it, isn't on my lists of things I want to accomplish anymore.

It also got me thinking all the stuff I did to this channel, the way I butchered it for the sake of seperating my content from serious scripted stuff to casual recordings is honestly something I regret now. Something I might fix when I find time to. Don't know how I'm gonna do that though.

Am I quitting YouTube / Twitch? Probably not. Again, I still enjoy making content, but whatever I do upload won't have the same passion as my previous videos as I just can't put the time into it anymore.

So as for this channel, it'll still be alive with some occassional videos. The second channel might be getting an overhaul. And Twitch is almost certainly gonna be dead for the foreseeable future as live streaming is just something I can't see myself doing while I'm working. It just takes too much energy out of me.

If you're sticking around, thanks, I appreciate that. If you wanna support me, right now I guess the best way to do that is subscribing and members but there isn't a lot I'm planning for next year.

Thanks for all the support.

Alright, kind of upsetting announcement.

I won't be able to make content as often as I'd like to anymore. I finally found a job and I'm there pretty much most of the day, almost every day. YouTube / Twitch won't be a priority for me for the time being.

See ya soon✌️
