I honestly don't even know where to begin.
After more than 11 years of making content, building walkthroughs, improving quality, sharing gaming memories, and putting my heart into every video, I'm genuinely worried about the future of YouTube. Starting November 17th, 2025, YouTube will begin applying new policies that could affect many gaming creators, including me. These policies are supposed to focus on gaming violence and age-restrictions, but they might end up hurting creators who have been making normal gameplay content for years.

I have always worked hard to keep my videos clean and focused on the story, gameplay, and atmosphere of each game. But now it feels like these new guidelines might treat regular in-game scenes the same way as extreme content, just because of the automated systems reviewing them.

The idea that years of work could suddenly become age-restricted, hidden from audiences, or even removed, is heartbreaking. Every walkthrough, every edit, every video I made came from passion and dedication. I have always tried to make things better each year, to grow as a creator, and to bring something unique for viewers who truly love these games.

I still have five walkthroughs in the lineup that I want to finish, but right now I don't know what to do with YouTube. I'm worried about the risk of my content being unfairly age-restricted, and it makes me feel uncertain about continuing with future projects.

What hurts even more is seeing how the platform has changed. YouTube used to be about creativity, authenticity, and passion. Now it's filled with repetitive AI ads, fake-looking mobile games, and low-effort business promotions. Real creators, the ones who actually care about quality, are the ones being affected. It feels like YouTube is becoming more artificial every day, and it's discouraging.

I also want to say sorry for not posting too much lately. I have been focusing more on my life and upcoming projects, and I appreciate your patience and understanding during this time.

I'm not asking for special treatment - I just want fairness. I want my videos and my work to stay online without unnecessary restrictions. I want the effort I have put into this channel over more than a decade to mean something, not to be swept away by a system that doesn't understand the difference between storytelling and "graphic violence".

To everyone who's been supporting me all these years - thank you. Your messages, likes, and encouragement have meant more than I can ever express. You're the reason I kept going even during hard times.

I don't know what the future holds, but I hope YouTube listens to creators like us. I hope they remember that gaming content isn’t just "violence". It's art, it's story, it's emotion, it's community. And for many of us, it’s our life’s work.

Yours truly,
Stefan

Today marks the 20th anniversary of GTA: Liberty City Stories!
This game remains one of the most impressive titles ever made for the PSP. It brought the full GTA experience to a handheld console for the very first time, with open-world freedom, detailed missions, and a storyline that perfectly bridged GTA 3 and Vice City.

Even two decades later, Liberty City Stories still stands out for its atmosphere, music, and unforgettable characters. It is one of those games that defined an era and proved just how far portable gaming could go.

If you are a fan of this classic, check out the two 100% walkthroughs of GTA LCS available here on the channel. Later this year, it will also be 10 years since I started my very first official 100% walkthrough, the one that began my entire journey as a content creator for the second time. Time really flies!

I also noticed that my latest videos got an English AI dub added automatically, while the original Romanian audio remains as the official track. I want to be clear: I am not happy with this AI dubbing, because it affects the quality of my channel and the videos.

I will be disabling this feature in future uploads so that all my videos will keep their original audio. Thank you for understanding! 🙏

Quick note about the start of my GTA IV - The Lost and Damned walkthrough. In the first few missions, right after "Clean and Serene" and up to "Action/Reaction", Johnny is wearing jackets with the "President" label, even though he is still the Vice President of The Lost MC. Yes, I gave him a promotion a bit too early, but I just wanted to dress him up and make him look more stylish. It’s all thanks to mods and was purely cosmetic, not gameplay-breaking, just a small visual mismatch.
After "Action/Reaction", I fixed everything and gave Johnny his proper jackets with the "Vice President" label again, exactly as it should be for that part of the story. Everything is consistent now for the rest of the walkthrough. Soon, Johnny will become the chapter president of the Lost MC. Stay tuned for more GTA The Lost and Damned videos! I really appreciate how much you guys are enjoying this series so far.

Hey everyone, I hope you're doing well. There are quite a few important updates and announcements I want to share with you all regarding the channel. From major milestones to upcoming content and some long-awaited apologies, let's go through everything together.

1. Exactly 10 years ago, I uploaded my first GTA 3 gameplay video on Android. That video marked the new beginning of my entire journey as a content creator. A long time ago, in 2014, I used to make a lot of GTA gameplay videos and small tutorials. Unfortunately, most of them were deleted due to copyright issues, and eventually, I decided to remove everything and take a break from content creation. That GTA 3 gameplay video represented my comeback and the start of everything that followed over the years. I want to sincerely thank every single one of you for being here, supporting my work, and sharing this journey with me ever since.

2. The NFS: Hot Pursuit 2 walkthrough on PS2 is getting close to its end. There are now less than 20 videos left to finish the series. I'm currently completing the last events, working on the challenges to unlock new vehicles, and showcasing every single car in the game. After that, I'll finish the walkthrough of this nostalgic game.

3. I want to apologize for the huge delay in uploading the next Detroit: Become Human video, especially Chapter 7. This is without a doubt one of the hardest videos I have ever made on this channel. It involves multiple attempts, branching paths, and different endings, and I have been trying my best to make it as good as possible. It still requires a lot of work, but I'm pushing through it. I'm also sorry for the long break in Detroit uploads overall. I will do my best to finish this series as soon as I can.

4. I recently started the second and final year of my master's degree. Because of that, I have been focusing more on my personal life, which has affected the upload frequency. I truly apologize for not posting as much lately, but I will continue to give my best to balance everything and keep creating quality content for you all.

5. For GTA: The Lost and Damned, I'm currently preparing the first side mission video, after which I'll continue with the main mission. In GTA San Andreas Definitive Edition, I'm starting the countryside missions soon and will potentially tackle the first real side missions in the game as well. As for RDR2, the 100% completion guide is still on the horizon and will remain one of my major goals going forward.

6. Very soon, I will be reaching 5,000 followers on TikTok. On top of that, one of my GTA San Andreas tutorial videos (the first Katana location), is about to reach 1 million views for the first time in my content creation career. This is a huge moment for me, and I'm truly grateful about it.

That's it for all the updates. Thank you all so much for your support, patience, and for being part of this journey. I'll keep working hard to bring you the best content I can, and I truly appreciate everyone who sticks around. Until next time, stay safe!

What's up guys! I hope you're doing well today!
I know this is a bit of a late announcement, but I'm really excited to share my brand-new childhood game walkthrough - Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit 2 on PlayStation 2. This version of the game is completely different compared to the PC, Original Xbox and GameCube versions. The mechanics, gameplay, and even the races are unique. It is such a memorable and fun game that I can't wait to show you all why it stood out back then.

Originally, I planned to upload the entire walkthrough as one massive video in stunning 4K 60fps, but the PS2 version is huge. Some races are incredibly long, and the whole playthrough adds up to around 16 hours. Since YouTube does not allow uploads longer than 12 hours, I had to rethink my approach. Instead, I decided to break it down into a full walkthrough across nearly 70 videos. This way you will get to enjoy every event, every race, every challenge, and the full Hot Pursuit 2 experience without limits. From the looks of it, you guys are already enjoying it, which makes me really happy.

I have also seen your questions about Johnny's clothes in GTA 4 The Lost and Damned DLC. To clear it up, I used mods to change Johnny's outfits. You can check the description of my GTA TLAD videos for details on which mods I used. Most of Johnny's clothing options came from GTAInside, ModDB, LibertyCity.Net and GTAGarage, and I installed them using Open IV, which is the best tool for this. That's how I created all the custom outfits you see in my brand-new 100% walkthrough of this DLC.

Stay tuned, because more videos are coming soon, not just for Hot Pursuit 2, but also for my GTA San Andreas Definitive Edition walkthrough and many other games. Also, I am about to unlock new parts of the map and will probably start doing side missions as well in GTA San Andreas. Big things are on the way, and I can't wait to share them with you all. Take care, guys, and peace out! 👍

After finishing the new GTA 4 100% walkthrough in full detail, it is finally time to move on to the DLCs! First up is GTA The Lost and Damned - the motorcycle themed darker and grittier side of Liberty City.

Starting Monday, August 25th, will be the premiere of the brand new 100% walkthrough in stunning 1440p 60fps, under 40 videos, packed with action and story. I have added new mods like DXVK for smoother performance and custom Johnny Klebitz outfits to make this walkthrough unique.

Get ready for more shooting, more chaos, and a deep dive into the Lost Motorcycle Club's world. Stay tuned!

The full 100% playthrough of GTA 3 on PlayStation 2 is officially done! 🎉
Thank you so much to everyone who watched and enjoyed it! This was just the beginning of making full playthroughs on YouTube.
The PS2 version is undoubtedly the hardest, most stressful, and worst GTA 3 version ever - with a lack of vehicle spawns, clunky camera and aiming, awful controls, inconsistent difficulty, and even broken features.
Lastly I want to ask if you enjoyed my full GTA 3 100% playthrough on PS2. How was the playstyle, commentary and the streams overall? Let me know. 👇
