  • Love it.

    Such an incredible gaming experience with absolutely no words.

    I also love Abzū, which is kind of like a sequel to it, but also not really.

    I did try and get my girlfriend (non-gamer) to play Journey and she did not enjoy it at all, which made me realise a large part of why I love it is that it doesn’t hold your hand, and it assumes you are adept at gaming in some way.









  • Because YouTube and Twitch are notorious for reducing ad payments or demontising creators. Have you forgotten about the adpocalypse already? Patreon also increased their fees with very little notice in 2019.

    It’d honestly be an idiotic move to not take a video sponsor if they’re offered, because that is guaranteed and likely upfront, supplemental income to support the creation of videos.

    Nebula is collectively creator owned, so it’s the only one of those that won’t fuck over creators for more money, but as I said, not a lot of people are paying for subscriptions. It’s small, the per-creator payouts are probably even less than Youtube.

    And finally, the real answer: Man’s gotta eat. Simple.

    All of that considered, I didn’t even see the sponsor ads you’re complaining about because I have Sponsorblock skip them automatically.
