Q&A: January 5th, 2022
Griffin Perkins AsksHearing you in Nick930's Battlefield documentary was a nice surprise, how did that come about?Nick reached out likely because we'd already talked in the past. Dude's one of the hardest working Youtubers I've seen, and his video quality is fantastic. I still don...
Raycevick's Recommendations: Bonetones by Michael Wyckoff
While I may not care for Boneworks as a single-player campaign, I can't deny some of its music sticks in my brain and won't leave. Michael Wyckoff does a superb job making hummable tunes where it's action, ambient, or chill.There's a separate Ambient Only soundtrack for the game by A...
Fantasy (+Quick Update)
Hello everybody!Unfortunately, my last content of the year won't be a video… I've gotten the thumbs up from developers I consulted on the pre-production segment, so now it's mostly about adding the refinements and waiting for the intro to be rendered. I'd love to have everything do...
Q&A: December 29th, 2021
Jorge AsksThoughts on Mario Kart?Man, I miss it. Haven't played it with a local group of friends in years, but I still have many memories of Mario Kart Double Dash on the Gamecube. So much shouting at friend while laughing.Just_Anohter_Account AsksWhat a the game you replayed/revisited the most?...
Raycevick's Recommendations: The Sopranos
I'm making this recommendation while I'm just in the first season.The Sopranos is easily one of the most finely crafted and (oddly) inspirational shows I've watched in some time. While growing up with the program as a kid and letting it teach me how to swear, the sheer amount of nuances ...
No Randomly Mine Today...
As it's Christmas Eve, my two options before visiting family are working on the video, or writing a Randomly Mine, and as much as there's thing for me to talk about... I think I know which one takes priority.My apologies, but it's so close...Hope you all have a wonderful Holiday!Best Wis...
Q&A: December 22nd, 2021
Hammiam AsksAre you from Iceland?GiantPurplePen15 AsksDid you grow up watching YTV? If so, what was your favourite show?Hello fellow Canadian. I definitely knew of YTV, but I spent most of my childhood TV watching on Teletoon. Friend and I were just talking about its shows. 6teen, Power Rangers, Meg...
Raycevick's Recommendations: The Italian Job (1969)
The Italian Job's one of those movies from the 1960s that doesn't feel like something from the 1960s... well, maybe in regards to its cars, gags, and general atmosphere, but from a filmmaking standpoint, it's still one of the best looking, one of the most intelligently paced, and one of ...
A Journey in Halo
So how are y'all enjoying Halo Infinite? I've been too busy to complete it yet, but I think I'm in the home stretch, and so far, there's lots of things I really love about it. I don't think the sandbox has ever been this strong. The combination of enemy types, vehicles, equipment...
Q&A: December 15th, 2021
The Great Leveler AsksWhat is the top thing you wish people would stop asking you about, and/or associating you with?Hmm, back in the day, people were really quick to push me as a Halo Youtuber. It's not that I'm ungrateful for getting my start on YT in large part thanks to the Halo Fanbase,...
Raycevick's Recommendations: Gold by Whores
Yeah, it's fun to write the band's name without context, but I feel like this group was made for me. Edgy, fast-paced, bass & fuzz pedal heavy riffs, with just enough angry vocals to pump you up without sounding like the Cookie Monster.While the group's classified as Noiserock, I think t...
Social
When's the last time you made a friend over an online game?For me, it was 2018ish, playing a game of Squad with a group of friends I met on Halo 2 back in 2006. We were crawling on the ground slowly concrete walls, because an enemy APC was furiously hunting us down. This 10+ minute cat and mouse...
Q&A: December 8th, 2021
Rupert AsksWhen are you gonna do a Halo Wars so I can come up with more content to annoy you with?I can never put a date on it, but were I to ever tackle Halo Wars, I imagine it would have to be a collaborate project. Hopefully there's a more interesting way to innovate the idea, I've got a ...
Raycevick's Recommendations: Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex (2nd Gig)
I've held off on recommending Ghost in the Shell Stand Alone Complex as I hadn't seen it in years, and are currently rewatching it with a friend. Doing so has confirmed my thoughts. While Season 1's very good, 2nd Gig, is the reason to watch.Everything's elevated, voice-actors sound ...

Q&A: December 2nd, 2021 (Should've Been On The 1st)
Apologies for the delay to Thursday, yesterday was an editing session that went on for too long.NephyrisX AsksFavourite Forza Horizon intro/initial race?I'm honestly not the biggest fan of showcases in-general as they really are just Time Trials that are hopelessly forgiving. My vote would likel...
Status Update: November 30th, 2021 (Technically)
Hey everybody,It's the end of the month, so as the final month begins, here's the current status on Metro Exodus Years Later... the yellow indicates all the footage that's been placed. It's normal for me to save development sections for later as they're often the most tedious and...
Raycevick's Recommendations: Never Be Content EP by Innerpartysystem
Electronic Music generally seems to lean towards this pho-inspirational life improvement positivity angle. Like folk music for a new-age and I don't care for most of it. Not because I've got a cold lump of coal where my heart's supposed to be... promise, I wouldn't have recommend an ...
Speed
I've heard the 20th Century be dubbed "The Century of Speed" and it makes sense. In 100 years, we went from horse and carts to Supercars, Jet Fighters, and Spaceships. Quite the turnaround. However, I'm thinking the title should maybe be moved to the 21st Century. Not because of the ...
Q&A: November 24th, 2021
JayFree AsksIf you could race in any era/year of F1, which would it be and why?The latest, so I'm less likely to die.The Great Leveler AsksWhat's your favorite car(s)?Uh oh... I could go on for ages. I'll try to just list a few categories.Supercar: Koenigsegg CCXHypercar/Trackcar: Brabha...
Raycevick's Recommendations: My Name
Yeah, you've likely heard and seen Squid Game already... I'm going to save that recommendation for later to give to people who avoided it due to its sheer popularity. However, Korea's got lots of other things to offer and My Name is one of them.Now, I wouldn't describe this show as p...
What Changed?
Halo Infinite.I'm REALLY enjoying it!I can't even put my finger on it necessarily, because very little has changed since the Technical Test that didn't impress me much. Gamepad feels more refined, less inconsistencies in aim accuracy. Couple weapons have been subtly tweaked for balancing...

Juhana AsksJuhana Says A Bunch of Random Stuff... Why is that the story of my life? Also when will you start producing said vodka?When I've commissioned Arby's.Jake Malone AsksHave any experience with VR? If so have any input on any of the games? (Especially Alyx)Definitely; currenlty my VR ...
Raycevick's Recommendations: Escape from New York
Christ, Kojima. You could've at least waited five minutes before ripping off this movie, and he doesn't stop there. I'd be lying to say I enjoyed every second of Escape from New York, it doesn't hold up as well as classics like Indiana Jones from a character or storytelling standpoin...
Comfy
Like 3.5 million other people, I've been playing Forza Horizon 5. The arcade spin-off of Microsoft's biggest racing brand and as with every other entry in the franchise, I've been having a great time with it. Its setting of Mexico's beautiful, there's a vast amount of content, an...
Q&A: November 10th, 2021
Dominik Jaworski AsksWhat do you think about video game pricing? Is the AAA price of $80-90 CAD justifiable or bullshit? Should games with shorter campaigns be priced cheaper?Games haven't caught up with inflation for years, and really, $10 isn't going to be a make it or break it deal for me...
Raycevick's Recommendations: All Out EP by KDA
It's reported that 50% of KDA's listeners have never touched League of Legends, and I guess I'm one of them. It's interesting to see the conflict KDA generates, as I do understand the cynicism in a big evil corporation making a virtual pop group using the constantly vague themes of e...
Physical
Nothing big today. Not a huge point about the global gaming industry, just a personal little thing I noticed while I've been making Beat Saber a morning routine before hitting the showers. I experienced something entirely unique to VR, wanting to keep playing, but being unable to… I don't ...
Q&A: November 3rd, 2021
Juhana AsksDouble Double? Thats nasty dude. Get that sugar shit outta here. Also yes Daniel, give me a hug. Oh and I guess I need go ask something. Umm. Do you like frogs?Frogs are cool. They hop.Hopping is cool.They also make weird noises.Kizza Lee AsksEver played any of the Hitman games?I've p...
Raycevick's Recommendations: Quake
I've previously recommend the original Quake's NIN soundtrack for it's beautifully dark ambience, but recommending the game itself was always less of a priority because of the steps required to get it up and running properly, but thanks to Nightdive Studios, that's no longer the case...
