Heyo. Three things.

First off, I hope you're having a good Thanksgiving (or for those that don't celebrate it, a good normal Thursday)! Stay safe out there - I don't want to hear about any wild turkey maulings.

Second, if you missed the Lemon Plushie last year, Makeship was kind enough to relaunch it. And now he can even dual-wield a torch and a comfort chicken at the same time! Neato.
The campaign launches tomorrow, and there's a Black Friday discount across Makeship, so you can get him at a discount too. Double neato.

And third, in case neither of these things apply to you, there's also another video coming out tomorrow. So yeah. Good stuff all around.

Now if you'll excuse me, I need to go into a food coma.

Heyo. Hope you're doing well.

Currently trying to get some merch out the door, but need help picking a design.
If you were interested in some FBA sweatpants/joggers, which design would you like to see the most?


*Note : I've tried to argue with the manufacturer, but for some reason they can't do the design down the side of the leg, only the front. So keep that in mind if that influences your decision at all.

Stay warm out there, and I'll see you all again real soon.

Heyo. Hope you're doing well.

Two things. First off, thanks for your responses to the last post. They were very enlightening, and the amount of good vibes and heartfelt comments that you all sent really made my week. Got a couple things blocking up the pipelines over here still, but hopefully I'll be able to upload a video or do some livestreaming in the near future to show my thanks for all your support.

Second, Makeship has kindly offered to do another run of the Lemon plushie for anyone who missed the first run. But we can't JUST re-release the plushie. So, if we did relaunch the plushie, what change would you like to see?

Heyo. Hope you're doing well. Things have been a bit weird on my end, if I'm being honest.
Between several large IRL life events happening all at once and work being busier than normal for the last four months or so, I'm feeling a bit lost on what kind of content to make.

Or put another way, I'm not sure what kind of content you all want to see.

So help a guy out. I've got one more video currently in the pipeline, but after that I'd like to know what kind of video YOU want to see next. Don't be shy, I promise not to tell anyone what you're into.

Also, in case I haven't said it in a bit, thanks for sticking around. Whether you're brand new to the channel or have been here since the beginning, this channel has been wind in my sails for several years now, and I wouldn't be the person I am today without it. So thanks for playing a part in that.

See you soon,

Heyo. Soooo good news bad news.

Bad news : It might be a minute before I can put out another video, due to IRL stuff going on.
Good news : JK Leeds just put out a two hour video of us trying to beat Dark Souls 3 with only firebombs and throwing knives!

Take care of yourselves, be good to one another, and I'll hopefully see you all again soon.

So, several audience members have asked me to address the Stop Killing Games initiative in some capacity.
And while I don't have time (or enough words) to make a full fledged video about it, I think I can summarize my feelings in two or three sentences:

As someone who has an enormous backlog of games that I'm slowly working through, there's nothing worse than loading up a game you bought 10 years ago and finally have time to play, just to find out you've got a digital brick in your game library because the game company stopped supporting it. A brick you paid for, and have no hope of ever getting your money or value back from.

And in a world where game companies are adamently trying to convince gamers that "you won't own anything, and you'll like it," it's important that we remind companies that at the very least we expect SOMETHING for our money. Otherwise, what are we doing here?

If you live in Europe and haven't done so already, please consider signing the "Stop Killing Games" petition.
Link to the petition here : www.stopkillinggames.com/

And if you live anywhere else in the world, cheer on our European brothers and sisters as best you can.
Because as we saw with the Steam refund policy (which was not always a thing), if a law gets passed in one country, most world-wide companies will apply the outcome of that law to the rest of the world as well.

Take care of yourselves, be good to one another, and I'll see you all in a few days.

Heyo. Quick question.

I just came back from watching "28 Years Later."
Spoiler : It was easily the worst, most amateur movie I've seen in the last 10 years.
Literally nothing of value, two hours of my life that I'll never get back.

My question is : do you all want a quick, lightly edited video review about it? I obviously can't show footage or anything like that, and I have a feeling the other movies are heavily copyright protected, so it'd basically just be me playing Left4Dead while rambling about how much I hated it and why.

Normally we only stick to games and stuff here, but holy spit on a stick people need to save their money and avoid that movie.

Got a question for those of you who play Elden Ring.
Do you consider Limgrave and the Weeping Peninsula to be the same "continent"?

Asking for a friend. Don't worry about why. I SAID DON'T WORRY ABOUT IT.

Well, uh, apparently Elder Scrolls : Oblivion Remastered just launched today.
That wasn't on my bingo card for this week.

...should we play it? Or would you rather wait awhile so you can play it for yourself and not get spoiled?
I mean, the game has technically been out for 19 years, but you know what I mean.

Thoughts?

Got nothing to do on March 29th and 30th? Like supporting mental health?

In that case, can I interest you in watching a bunch of your favorite content creators struggle their way through the Souls series while chat harrasses them with donations and makes it even harder?
How about listening to Lemon try to stay awake for 24 straight hours and slowly lose his mind trying to commentate over it all?
How about both?

On March 29th starting at 0800 CST (1300 GMT), we will begin challenge running the entire souls series : DeS, DS1/2/3, BB, and ER. Each game gets a four hour timeslot, where the runner must attempt to finish the game.
The catch should be familiar to anyone who's tuned in to my charity streams : donations can be used to influence the run itself, and hinder (or help) each runner while they attempt to achieve their goal.

The stream will last 24 hours, so we've got creators from all over the world hopping in to help out.
In no particular order, you might just see ‪@JKLeeds‬, ‪@PressContinue‬, ‪@ChallengerAndyOfficial‬, ‪@pandamygdala‬, ‪@AccainGaming‬, ‪@DoomWolfOfficial‬, ‪@GamersWeekend‬, ‪@trevthedev6134‬, ‪@Be_And‬, and ‪@UdderChaosTime‬ causing a ruckus on stream, and I'm sure several other creators will stop by in the chat as well to laugh at our suffering.

100% of donations will go to the charity "Hope for the Day," a mental health charity that focuses on getting resources and information to those in need before they reach the crisis stage, instead of after.

Lots of games. Lots of creators. A full cast of commentators. 24 hours of challenge run madness.

And yes, there's a donation tier where you can force me to play co-op Elden Ring during the stream.

And I'm terrified.
