Some unfortunate news today - I'll be putting my playthroughs on hold for the time being, for a couple of reasons. I do have one more multiplayer episode to put up, might be this week or maybe later, but otherwise my Tuesday solo videos and the multiplayer series will be on hold for probably a couple of months, and at that point we'll see. I do want to bring them back in some form, but here are the reasons.
Firstly the good part. I'm hoping to use the extra time to better focus on my guides. They are the reason that most people are here, so they deserve to be my main focus. I have some big Terraria guides planned for the next little while, I need some extra time to develop those fully, and I also want to get into doing occasional guides for other games again (most likely "guide for noobs" type stuff). So let me know if there are any other games you'd like to see guides for. That does also mean I should be publishing guides pretty well every week for awhile!
Secondly the bad part. Unfortunately my playthroughs just don't get nearly as much attention as my guides, and I'm afraid that might be hurting the channel overall because of the way YouTube looks at things. While my guides generally get views in the thousands, my playthroughs generally get views in the hundreds. I know there are quite a few of you who do enjoy them, and I also know I could do better with the playthroughs - they're relatively vanilla unexciting stuff - but I'm not sure if they can ever compete. I do enjoy making them and want to keep them going, but this is also a bit of an experiment to see how it affects the overall channel.
I will try to bring the playthroughs back in some form, probably some time after mid-January. I'm not sure if I'll be doing them the same way, just continuing the existing series as-is, or I might try doing live streams or some fresher content like getting into mods. Let me know what you think, and I'll see what makes sense when I get there.
