The finale of Red Dead is up on Patreon now, and it'll be posted on the channel tomorrow! (www.patreon.com/posts/finale-red-dead-52401192)

Thank you all for being so patient with me, especially as I say goodbye to what is now my favorite game of all time. It has been an absolutely wild ride, and something that I wouldn't trade for the world. Thank you all for being here throughout it all - ya'll are incredible and I love you so much.

Outlaws for life. ❤️

Heya guys! I’m alive, so no worries!!

I got hit with a pretty bad flu, RIGHT after my dislocated shoulder and ankle situation, so this past week has been genuinely terrible and I’m sorry for that! I just got my voice back yesterday and I’m feeling MUCH better, so I’m hoping that videos should be back to normal starting Friday.

I want to thank those of you who reached out in concern, or left some kind words for me! You are absolutely incredible and I cannot thank you enough, seriously.

That being said, I might make a video talking about some things that have been going on, because I can only say so much in one community post. If you’d like to wait for my video talking about all of this and more, feel free to skip the rest of this and have a LOVELY day/evening.

I love ya’ll ❤️

For those of you who want to know more about what’s up, here you are!!

~~~~

Feeling terrible physically and being unable to get out of bed for days seemed to also have a really bad impact on my mental health, and that’s something that’ll take a little longer for me to recover from. I’ve discovered that being on YouTube while also being in a bad mental state, is honestly just a terrible combination.

A surprising amount of people on here are toxic beyond belief, and it’s been getting to me more than I’d like to admit. I’ve said before that I am NOT a video factory, and I do this only because I love it. I love when I’m able to crank out near daily videos, believe me, but please understand that yelling at me because you’re not getting a certain video fast enough will not help. I’m so glad that you guys love one of the games I’m playing! But please avoid calling me horrible names when I’m not playing the game you want, or when I don’t post enough for your liking.

Coming back from this sickness and getting ready to record, and seeing a wave of cruel people like that? It crushes me. If you want a fully uploaded video with stellar combat gameplay for the games I play, please look up a walkthrough. I just want to have fun and play the games I love, that’s all.

Some say to ignore the rude comments, and while I appreciate the sentiment, I feel like that’s sweeping this behavior under the rug. I don’t feel like it’s too much to ask for people not to harass me in the comments here and on my Instagram, so please. Be kind. It’s gotten to the point where I’ve considered stopping myself from reading my YouTube comments entirely, which I HATE because there are so many of you out there who are so so kind and have such wonderful input to give about these games!! But I’m so tired. Reading these nasty comments and then having to pretend like they don’t exist just isn’t something I can do while battling my depression.

I’ve considered starting my Twitch streams soon, to have a nice cozy spot where I can play a fun game and hang out with some of you lovely people! It’s hard to put hours upon hours of effort into filming and then editing videos, only to have it never be enough for some people. I am exhausted and sad and lonely, and I just want to play some fun video games. I’ve gotten into playing Dead by Daylight recently, so if you’d be interested in hanging out with me while I play, let me know! Or if you have any other cozy game suggestions for streaming, please let me know!

To make a really long story short, please be kind. To me and to EVERYONE else in the community! All I’ve ever wanted is to build up our little group of nerds who love video games, and who just want to spread positivity. I’m too sad to handle the toxic nature of YouTube, and I’m really trying to work on that. I just wanted to vent and share some of my thoughts with you all! I’ll have a lot more to say in my video talking about this, and that should come a little later.

If you made it this far, thank you. I know that the majority of this community is kind and WONDERFUL, and I really need to be reminded of that in times like these. My body will heal, and my mind will get there eventually.

Please stay safe, and stay healthy. Stay kind, too.

I love you all ❤️

Uh, we hit 10,000 subscribers????? Look at us go 😭

I love all of you guys so so much, and I wanted to say a huge thank you for helping to create this wonderful little community. We’re all a bunch of nerds who are way too invested in video games, and I LOVE IT. This experience has been amazing, and I wouldn’t trade it for the world.

If any of you guys were around back when we hit 1,000 subs, you might remember me asking for questions for a Q&A! With everything going on, it never really happened, but would you guys be interested in a 10k Q&A video? I figured it might be a good chance for you guys to get to know me a little better, and ask any questions you’d like! I’ll try and answer as many as I can!

Man. You guys are seriously the best, and I am SO so grateful. Life is less lonely with ya’ll fantastic nerds in it.

Thank you ❤️

So uh, anyone else excited about God of War?

Because I know I am!!! God of War is FINALLY back, and the first video of our Ascension playthrough will be up on Thursday, so get ready! I know you’ve all waited a long time, and I appreciate you guys SO much for that!!

If you’re not the patient type, that’s okay, because the full video is up already on my Patreon page! It’s never a necessity, but if you’d like to help support the channel, as well as get early access to ALL of my videos (and a couple of other neat things), this is an option!

www.patreon.com/reyskywlkr

Either way, I’ll see you guys on Thursday for our next adventure with Kratos! I’m so excited! 😭

Heya guys!! So uh, it’s been a while, but I’m pretty happy to say that I’m back to posting videos!! ❤️ I’ll have two videos up later today (12pm MST) - one will be an update on my mental health break, and the other will be a continuation of my Spider-Man playthrough!

Thank you all so much for your patience and understanding while I was away. Mental illness is a battle that so many of us face, and it’s difficult to navigate through it alone. Luckily for me, I had all of you guys sending such positive thoughts my way, and I’m so incredibly thankful for that.

I love you all, and I believe in us! I’m excited to play through these incredible games with you guys again ☺️

(and yes, I did cut and dye my hair. I was sad and changing my hair made me feel a little bit happier, so don’t be too mean to me 😂)

I feel like crying because I got two hours of sleep and I still have to go back to my second shift in 45 minutes, but that doesn’t matter because LOOK who I brought home!!!! She’s the love of my life, so give her a warm welcome 🥰


(also the God of War finale is up, so go click on that if you want to see me cry like a lil baby during a boss fight ☺️)

Heyo guys!! So a couple of people have suggested that I react to the God of War Ascension super bowl trailer, since it’s supposed to be pretty cool, but I had a quick question for you nerds out there:

Do I watch the trailer BEFORE playing Ascension, or AFTER playing the game? I know Ascension takes place before the first GoW game, but I don’t want to be spoiled for any of the specifics of this one just because of the trailer, so I just wanted to double check!


ps

(The finale for GoW 1 is gonna be out pretty soon, and I’m excited ☺️)

I’m back!!

It’s been one heck of a week, guys, and a fairly stressful one at that 😅 I got into my first ever car accident, which threw off my schedule for videos a bit, but the next vid will be out tomorrow for you guys! I’m okay (a bit banged up, mainly emotionally), and my car is okay, and that’s all that really matters. Thanks for being the best community I could ask for - love you guys!!! ❤️❤️

ps

Maybe I should come up with a cooler story for these bruises though, like fighting a Valkyrie or something 😂

Hey guys!!!

You’ve all been asking where I went, so here I am! I got hit with an unexpected sickness that knocked me out of commission for the last week and a half, but I’m back now!! I’ve had absolutely zero energy for anything except sleeping and dragging myself to work every day (thanks, world). Now I’m finally back to feeling like myself and I’m super excited to start putting out videos again!

I’m super sorry for the absence, but I wanted to say thank you for all the concern and well wishes you guys have given me. You guys are the best and I appreciate you all so so much.

ALSO WE HIT 5.5K SUBSCRIBERS???!!!! You guys are ridiculous and I love you all so much for it.

Here’s a picture of me with a cat as an apology ❤️❤️

So, since someone in the comments brought it up, I just thought I'd throw this out here and see what you guys think!

Would any of you be interested if I made a Discord server for the channel? I'm personally not super knowledgeable about Discord, but if it's something you guys would like, I'd be more than happy to learn and make one! You guys are such an incredible community and I love you all to pieces, so let me know what you think!!
