Channel Update #47 (Jun)
Hey, this update is a little late and will be a little short.I’m currently deep in the next video, which will be the romance in games video I’ve mentioned before. It’s turned out to be quite a big project - lots of research, lots of game playing, and a long video (3 hours+) - and it should be ...
Channel Update #46 (May)
Hello,The Baldur’s Gate video is deep in production and should be finished in about a week. It’s actually been rather time consuming just because of the amount of game playing involved. I’ve done two playthroughs of BG3, plus one of 1 and 2, which adds up (to about 350 hours). It also doesn’...
Channel Update #45 (Apr)
I’ll keep this update short.There is a new video out. It’s not Baldur’s Gate. It might not be what a lot of people want. It is very political. And I’m sorry to anyone who doesn’t want this video. But I felt like I had to do this.I’m not too sure what else to say really. I might make a lo...
Channel Update #44 (Mar)
This is a positive if unexciting update.The history of rpgs video took a little longer than expected, mostly because it’s the type of video that’s time consuming to write and edit. As for the end result… it’s okay. I don’t actually think this is one of my best videos but there isn’t anyt...
Channel Update #43 – the big one
Hello,I hope everyone’s year is off to a good start. This is an update about future videos and my plans for 2024, but as always when I make an update like this, keep in mind that plans do change.Before that though I will say that the last video has produced an… interesting range of responses. So...
Channel Update #42?
This is a short but important update.A new video should be going up tomorrow that is about a more serious topic than usual. It focuses on a gaming industry related issue and is quite critical of two specific youtubers. Anyway the video should speak for itself, so I won’t talk about it further, but...
Channel Update #41 (Dec)
Season’s greetings everyone, I hope you’re all well.This is just a short update to say that a longer update is coming soon where I’ll do a full year review of NeverKnowsBest in 2023.There is a new video though. It took far longer than I expected or wanted but I’m reasonably happy with the en...
Channel Update #40 (Nov)
Hello,I have returned from the land of the rising sun but I have not brought a new video with me. Anyway, the trip was good but it’s the new video part I am going to talk about today. As of writing this I am in video limbo so to speak, so I thought this might be a good time to give an update while...
Channel Update #39 (Sep/Oct)
Another month, another video… which is something I haven’t been able to say for a while. Don’t get used to it though as I’m about to go to Japan for a little over 2 weeks, in what is the first real holiday I’ll have been on since starting this youtube channel. So that should be nice, and i...
Channel Update #38 (Aug)
Hi,The Final Fantasy video is done. It’s uploading as I write this but it will be live by the time this post is up and… yeah, it sure took a long time. Sorry if anyone was waiting and expecting it to be finished sooner. I was expecting it to be finished sooner. I don’t really know how this hap...
Channel Update #37 (July)
Hello, the next video is a full series retrospective on Final Fantasy. I wasn’t going to announce it before finishing it, but it’s taking longer than I thought and I don’t want to let the month end with no new video without saying what I’m actually working on.Anyway I know I’ve talked abou...
Exploring the weird world of Adult Video Games
The deleted video.I'm not too sure what the video quality is like on Patreon but at least it's an option. This is set to public as well, so can be shared with non patrons.
Channel Update #36 (June)
Hi,This might be a bit of a long update but I’ll break things up.1. The situation on youtube (this is copy and pasted from the youtube community post I’ve just made):The second channel lives again - https://www.youtube.com/@KnowsBestNeverI think it was the big response on twitter that ultimately...
Channel Update #35 (May)
Hello monthly update time i.e. new video and bad news time. I’ll break things into different topics.1. The second channel was deleted out of the blue (there’s a little more info in a recent youtube community post if you want to check). I’m still not sure why this happened. The first appeal was...
Channel Update #34 (Apr)
Hello,Just a quick update I guess. There’s a new video on the main channel, which is the first of four videos on gaming history and will be about 6 hours long in total. This is a topic I’ve thought about covering for a while and it seemed a good time. I particularly wanted to connect the past wi...
Pathfinder Wrath of the Righteous Review
I'm working on something but in the mean time I finished Wrath of the Righteous recently (I didn't finish it at release as it's long and I got distracted making videos) and thought I'd make a quick video review. It's unlisted so think of it as patreon exclusive content or somethi...
Should I upload the politics video to the main channel?
I haven't been able to get the age restriction lifted on the latest video. As far as I know it still hasn't had a manual review but I'm not getting anywhere with support. I did try uploading it to the main channel as unlisted though, just to check, and its had no issues. So I'm debat...
Channel Update #33 (Feb) – a video a long time coming
There’s a new second channel video and I have so much I could say that don’t really know where to start. I guess I’ll try to be methodical.The video is about politics and the internet… and a little history and philosophy too. When I decided to take a break from the main channel I had an over...
Channel Update #32 (Jan?) – New Year and new video
Hello,I hope everyone’s doing well and had an enjoyable holiday.There is a new video on the second channel (linked above?). I chose the topic because it felt like a good continuation from the last video and I thought I’d be able to make something quickly, but the subject turned out to have more ...
Channel Update #30 and #31 and maybe more
I've made a lengthy update hopefully explaining anything that needs to be explained.This started as a normal update but then I expanded it and recorded it etc. as I thought better to try to explain everything and make something which can be shared more broadly.Next video will be gothic, sometime...
New video
Hello,I made a video. It's about AI and it is a little weird. See what you think.Anyway I'm thinking I will leave it on the second channel and make a community post and maybe a mention at the end of a normal video to promote it.This was made on a whim after spending a day with the tech and t...
Channel Update #29 (Aug) – next two videos and not so beyond
Hi, sorry the update is a little late.Since the Elden Ring video I made some good progress on Gothic, and then switched to working on a Total War Warhammer video. These are the next two planned videos. The Total War video was meant to be more a video for me (as opposed to my boss, the youtube algori...
Channel Update #28 (July) – elden thing
Arise ye tarnished,Since finishing the last video I have done a second playthrough of Elden Ring and I’m now onto writing the script. The finished video should go live on Aug 10th although I’m hoping to finish it a little before then to give myself a bit of extra time for the next video, whateve...
Channel Update #27 (Jun) – souls, rings, and second channels
Good evening all,Since the completion of the last video (here if you missed it https://youtu.be/Rx-Cfh3C8NQ) I have been doing nothing but playing Elden Ring, and through the 120 hours I have spent with that game I have decided that I’d honestly rather make a Dark Souls video than an Elden Ring on...
Channel Update #26 (May) – New Video
There is a new video. You can view it here – https://youtu.be/Rx-Cfh3C8NQIt’s on a different channel because it’s not video game related and it’s likely that uploading it to my main channel will just hurt future videos as the algorithm tends to punish people for doing anything too different....
Channel Update #25 (Apr) – future unplans
Hello, it’s me, the ungrateful person you support who complains at you once a month. How’s it going?I’ve been promising a detailed update on future plans for a while now (since December?) so I guess that’s what I’ll do here. Unfortunately, it does feel like a bad time to give such an updat...
Channel Update #24 (Mar) – An update
I don’t usually talk much about my life outside youtube but in the last month I have:- moved home (I haven’t actually fully moved yet, that will be next weekend, but it feels like I have and I’ve had lots of things to take care of).- left my job (I have mentioned this before, but I never stopp...
Channel Update #23 (Feb)
Hello everyone,A quick update to say I am still working on a video and I’m hoping it will be finished soon. I doubt it will be live within a week but hopefully within 2 at least. I did also take two weeks off after the last video back in January, after what had been a very work intensive year, and...
