I never played shmups except for Raiden X, a flash version of Raiden I and II. About a half a year ago I rediscovered it and relived the nostalgia by learning everything I could about the original games and listening to the soundtracks repeatedly. I'll watch your new video to tap into this peripheral nostalgia once again!

You're the man, Jimmy. Success is written all over you, don't let up!

Excited to see your next work. Your videos have both been intellectually stimulating and have turned into some of my favorite comfort rewatches. It's also quite kind of you to make a video specifically for my interests with that Age of Empires 2 one 😉

i know this post is a little old, but i wanna let you know that you've become one of my go-to defaults for having a video in the background while i work/draw (alongside hbomberguy and folding ideas, among others). your cadence and volume mixing is just right for me to zone out but i can always come back and refocus on what you're saying practically any time, with no confusion or irritation. i've probably watched your 'pay 2 win' videos for a full day collectively by this point. forever glad you're making all this great content, and i dearly hope you can keep stoking this inner fire of creation for years to come.

I'm looking forward to Pay to Win 3 but I'm glad to see these light hearted videos since I imagine the heavy topics are rough to write and research about.

My phone won't let me comment on vids so I'll post a couple things here. 1. I love the passion you have when talk about the games you love. Pay to win is very "clinical and detached" (necessarily so I think) but your game reviews are just a joy. 2. Touhou turned me off shmups for the exact reasons you talked about, and it wasn't until I played Ikaruga did I find any interest in the genre past basic galaxian or defender every blue moon.

Very excited about pay to win 3! I think it's the series where your editing shines the most.

When I think of shoot em ups, first thing that comes to my mind is Wild Guns. That game fucking slaps..

cool to see you talking about shmups, this is almost an expansion from that part in PTW2. btw have you heard of Eigengrau? what are your thoughts on it?

Hey, I'm back! New video today. It is about an underrated (imo) old shoot 'em up.
I took a needed break from the 'social' parts of the channel over the last month, but I was still working on projects. Going offline is nice! The subtitles will finally, _actually_ be up in a reasonable period of time, just need to reinstall some programs to get it done.
I'll look through my unfinished scripts in the next couple days and pick up one of the 500 games I've name-dropped in these posts ;) I've continued to work on Pay to Win 3 in the background, and it has crystallized into an outline that I'm very excited about. Once I finish a draft script I'll commit to working on it exclusively, but there's plenty of reading and writing left before then.
Thanks for the support as always!
