Patreon Update #1 - May 2017
🕑 Added 2017-04-30 20:49:28 +0000 UTC Hey everybody,Today is the announcement of a few changes to my credits and in-turn, this Patreon. There's multiple topics here to cover, and I thought it'd be best to lay everything out for you.
The support from all of you has been an awesome experience. The momentum in subscribers and fan-funding has been staggering. But as discussed on my last Discord Hangout, the process of voicing individual supporters has resulted in videos having over a minute of credits, and it'd only continue to grow. I removed the Games & Song lists to try to cut it down, but it didn't solve the problem. So, I've been working on updating the credits for my videos.
The goal is to cover multiple bases. On the left, all Patreons will be credited. On the bottom right, the games and music list will be shown. It's common for people want their hands on both, and now I and others won't have to respond comment by comment to give the information. Finally, in the largest text, are questions for me to verbally answer.
These questions will either be frequently asked ones that I see in my comments more than 10+ times, but primarily, they will be questions from you guys sent via the Discord server.
That's the next announcement. I will now be hosting a permanent Discord server for those donating $10+. All future Discord hangouts will take place here. You can also submit questions for my videos. Serious or not.
The goal is to have credits that engage as many viewers as possible while also giving the proper time and thank you to those supporting the creation of my content. These new credits will be used in the next video, and from there on out. I encourage you guys to give your thoughts and suggestions.
And while you're here, I thought I'd give a brief summary of my next two videos currently planned.
Finding A Hidden Gem: Playing Cloud Pirates sparked a thought. One about how many games I never would've played had I not taken a leap of faith. And based on the awesome feedback sent to me by you guys on Twitter, it's got something to do with Teens, Adults, and the priorities of both.
The Ghost in the Shell Gaming Overview: I for the life of me can't find a striking title for this video, but I'm looking forward to assembling it. Ghost in the Shell has spread so much influence in Animation, Film, and Writing. Yet in gaming, it's only been treated as a brand. In it, I'll be covering every Ghost in the Shell game made, including Bungie's forgotten PS2 effort, Oni.
Hopefully this update is to your liking. Be sure to express your thoughts, and thank you for your amazing support!
Best wishes,
Lucas Raycevick

that's a good idea for the credits to retain view time but like the above poster im not here for credit as well. my guess is no matter what you do, credits will signal 90%+ of people to click out. I'm not sure if you're willing to take this risk, but TearOfGrace, before End Screens were a thing, did an "ending credits" mid-roll in the video. I am looking forward to something including Oni, i played it on PC back in 2001. thanks again
I for one don't care too much for the recognition as I am here to support a creator that has truly given me hours of entertainment. But! yes I did notice credits seem to drag long which again I can totally respect the change in ending credits just to make things transition smoother. I do hope people like it all the updates as I am excited for them! Keep them coming!
