Hey! I just wanted to share that I have been posting stuff for members here on YouTube this past year and moving forward it's going to be a lot more consistent. If you're considering becoming a member, thank you!

I've been exploring how to make things more regular in general and one hurdle for that is honestly keeping the bills paid. Unfortunately YouTube ad revenue is not consistent plus everyone hates ads anyway. Becoming a member is one of the best ways to make YouTube more consistent for me, which in turn will make this channel better and more consistent for you.

So here's what's for YouTube members right now:
1. Early access to Impressions City Building videos AD FREE
Aiming for one video a week, members will get to watch next week's video early and while it's for members only it will not have any ads running on it.
You can catch the new Caesar 3 video early here: https://youtu.be/QAE249o6jeE
(Zeus Poseidon will be starting soon for members first)

2. Occasional bonus playthroughs (also AD FREE)
Right now there is a FULL playthrough of SimCity 2000 for members. There's also the ongoing 'Not A City Builder' series where I'm playing some of the proto-city builders that formed the genre. I plan to do more.
SimCity 2000 continued here: https://youtu.be/i5yWZp7uhtU

3. IRL Adventures
There are times when I would really love to share something from real life outside of gaming. Whether it's cooking, gardening, culture, design, cats, or something about me personally. Obviously YouTube would hate me 'mixing' genres on a channel but posting them to members fits no problem.
Like my gaming adventure at the science museum: https://youtu.be/xp5RdbEzLc8

I know it would be great if I was just free to post whatever and everyone loved it (including YouTube itself) but after experimenting for almost 15 years, that's not really how things work out. I am however determined to make membership on this channel worth it, so if there's any thoughts on your end just let me know! If there are actually enough members to give me some breathing room, it would mean I can make more and better content for everyone. I really appreciate your support, even if you just read or liked this post, it helps! Thanks!

All members videos go into this playlist: www.youtube.com/playlist?list...

Hot takes welcome! I was asked to make this poll on which Heroes of Might & Magic faction you prefer in terms of Design & Theme. Vote away for what is likely the biggest poll on this topic (for now)!

So I listed the best simulation games of all time: https://youtu.be/5B7LYFVNKfM I really tried my best to explain and specify on all the reasons through the video. I hope I got all the points across okay?

Meanwhile, I'm live now with Caesar 3 on Twitch: www.twitch.tv/GamerZakh If you're reading this later, I should be streaming a lot more over the next month, so if you wanna follow and support there, now's a good time. Thought I should let you know. Thanks!

I've made my simulation games megalist and it's the biggest list I've ever done in the history of the channel! Maybe it's the biggest list of games video ever? (probably not but I like to dream) Watch it here: https://youtu.be/28P5aH3-9qg

It's 160 upcoming, new, and in-development simulation games and no, this is NOT 'everything'. There's actually about 2900 simulation games in the works right now, so consider this a top 5%.

Months of work and I really tried to keep things updated and organised. This like also has about 30 games I've never listed before, even in all those smaller sim game lists. I am just 1 person though.

It would be greatly appreciated if you give this a watch and support the video in the various ways. Sharing it would be awesome too. If you do want to really help me make more of these, consider supporting on Patreon: www.patreon.com/GamerZakh

A little bit goes a long way and there's bonus videos, behind the scenes, free public guides, and more. Thank you!

Big question! Considering everything these two games have today (expansions, widescreen, mods, fan patches, custom content, etc), which Command & Conquer is the 'better' game right now?

It's a week of demos on Steam! Maybe check out this sci-fi noir strategy RPG with some great voice acting? We were sponsored [AD] to try Aether & Iron and the devs just want you to try their free demo. Also, I dressed up! Give it a watch: https://youtu.be/pTKnpMd-LYc Thanks!
