You're an Adult Now | Splatoon 3 (Definitive Edition) + Small Update
🕑 Added 2023-06-13 00:48:00 +0000 UTCHey everyone! The original "Patreon Cut" upload with the integrated TikTok section had some issues in the export that hurt the quality so I wanted to make sure there was a "Definitive Edition" with a best-quality export of the Patreon Cut (while still at the mercy of Patreon Videos processing). Here it is! There's a couple of small fixes that make it further "Definitive" too, but nothing substantial. If you're planning on re-watching it at some point or haven't watched it yet, this is the best place to do it!
== Update ==
The video has passed 200k views on YouTube and is on track to pass the Drakengard episode to be the most popular on the channel and I couldn't be happier about it! I wasn't really sure how it would perform but 200k was my lofty goal and now that it met it, I'm beyond satisfied.
Regarding the next video, I've started working on narrowing down the topic and figuring out what form it needs to take and it's definitely going to be a bit until I'm able to give more details. While I've had the core plan for it since last year, there's a couple different directions that I'd like to take it and I need to finish playing the games I'm planning to talk about, which takes a lot of time--but I'm so, so excited to get further into it. What I'll tell you now is that its going to be the densest video yet, it's sorta about Platinum Games, and I'm going to talk a little about this guy:
Thanks for sticking with me and for all the ongoing support! I'm hoping that soon I'll be able to use the profits from the Splatoon video and Patreon to upgrade my PC. This will allow me to do more complex editing and reduce the length of the editing phase and help increase the quality of the footage I collect.
My goal for the NieR: Replicant video that will come at some later time is for it to be a very high production value piece so I'm going to be building up some editing skills in the videos leading up to that to pull it off and I'll need the hardware to be able to edit 4K footage. I want it to feel like a short movie, basically. I want to extract the soul of the game and explain how it is such a subtly powerful work in the medium. You might have noticed in some previous episodes that my Replicant footage is captured at unique camera angles because I've experimented in the past with camera mods that I'm going to use to do the "cinematography" for it. My current PC crashed every 10-30 minutes during the editing for the last video, so I really need to upgrade the GPU, maybe CPU, and get more storage (the video assets took up 60GB and premiere renders frequently bloated up to 150GB).
That's all I've got for right now, thank you again to every single one of you! Be sure to join the Discord server if you haven't already for more frequent updates and to ask me any questions you have! :)
Wait, one final thing! I've changed the thumbnail a couple time to increase engagement. So to make this the 'Patreon Post of the Splatoon Episode - Definitive Edition,' here's the full quality versions of all 3 thumbnails that the video has worn:
