I regret to say that I tend to only feel this when my videos are doing well mainly because it's a huge downer to spend hours on something and find that most people don't care much about it...a topic for a different day perhaps. But that doesn't matter because my videos are and so I feel pumped! It's also nice just to really hammer away at what I want out of the hobby :D
As you can see in the image above I painted some Pathfinder goblins for a friend of mine. It wasn't for a video or anything and was kind of spur of the moment, but I got hooked as I always do when painting :D
In case you missed it I did post my first "end of year" videos, my top 10 Kickstarters of 2019! I always enjoy making these lists as I LOVE to highlight all of the awesome positive things happening in this industry.
Next up is some unboxing "filler" videos just so you guys don't have to miss me for too long like you did waiting for this video (sorry it was so late!). Then the big one, the Upcoming 2020 Kickstarters video :D This is something I'm super excited to do as I have quite a few exclusives and stuff you guys don't know about yet and that just makes me smile knowing you all soon will :D The only bummer about this video is it's taken a TON of emailing and messaging of a ton of game developers to get info and images. Hopefully it's worth all the up-front work!
And of course I'll start painting on Fade, hopefully this week! I want to take my time and do it really well as it's a gift to my most amazing wife after all :)
Been playing lots of board games recently as well! We broke out Rise of Moloch again after a long time and found out we were just 1 mission from the last one! That means we've now fully played 2 scenario based retail games, Conan (plus all expansions) and now Rise of Moloch (soon). That CMON Time Vault better open soon so I can get more Moloch! :D
In case you missed it by the way, I have a vote over on Facebook for a Viewers choice award for an upcoming video. I chose Facebook because it allows people to add their own options for voting so it's not just limited to what options I put there - otherwise it would have been here! :) https://www.facebook.com/groups/TheBoardGameKingdom/permalink/578729702702549/
What have you guys been up to?

Merry Christmas to you as well Andrew! Conan is my wife's all time favorite game, and in the top 5 for me easily. The river system is fantastic and the gem spending mechanic allow for some truly awesome turns :D

That sounds like a wonderful time! Friday is my last day before Christmas, but I won't have as much time off as I normally do this time of year since I just started another job (but thankful for the job). We have a pretty small-time Christmas with just us and my parents and brother, but I enjoy it. My favorite time of year! I was able to talk Shadowborne Games into letting a few of us play Oathsworn which was a ton of fun, so now several people can vouch for it's quality :D
I have to take a look at Conan as Iβve heard your mad ravings about it on more than one occasion across several different videos π - just need a quiet hour or two to watch an appropriate amount of videos and gameplay to make that informed decision :). Have a wonderful Christmas!
Home for the holidays with my better half visiting her parents in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada at the moment. We take off to spend the rest of the holidays on 12/18 in Ottawa at my Sisterβs with my folks and my Motherβs side of the family who fly in from Germany. First time with the German side over the holidays since 1999! Morgan and I are playing through tainted grail together as well, currently on chapter number 3 and absolutely loving the story, so rich. I just hope Oathsworn, Middara and Altar Quest are of similar caliber when it comes to story!

Working through as in playing or painting? :D That trip sounds awesome by the way! I took a look at Gdansk and it looks beautiful there
Working my way through Tainted Grail. Also, I'm contemplating a short vacation in Gdansk in the spring... Gdansk which is the hometown of Into the Unknown....maybe making it a combined vacation /boardgaming special. Surely ITU will welcome a visit from a patron of this channel. Gdansk is just 1 hour away from me on plane... So there's that...
