Some minor updates...

Well for those of you who don't bother reading the descriptions in my videos then here's a few small updates with the current youtube schedule.

In case you haven't caught on, I've fallen rather behind in my uploading schedule because the upload system was broken for me. It lasted about a week until it was finally fixed. There was some bug in the system that prevented a lot of people from uploading videos longer than 15 minutes even though their account is enabled for unlimited length uploads. Unfortunately that problem also happened to me, that was why I could only upload a couple of short guitar hero videos while I waited for the system to work again.

Just my luck that all my videos tend to be at least 20 minutes long, and once you have videos rendered out it's a major loss of quality if you have to go back and re render a video to be shorter. It's bad enough that there's quality loss when you compress a fraps video the first time, having to do it a second time is just awful and destroys so much of the original quality.

Anyways on a more lighter now, in all the downtime where I couldn't upload videos, I kept playing more and more of my playthrough games and somehow managed to finish all of them. Bad Company 2 gave me the most problems because footage kept going corrupt after it was recorded, and then after I finally managed to record it again and render out videos that are ready for uploading, they literally disappeared on me and I have no idea how or why. So long story short I basically ended up playing the second half the game about 3 or 4 times just for you guys. Kind of a pain in the ass but I managed to get it done anyways.

Surprisingly the game that didn't give me any problems at all was Metro 2033. I know I kinda bitched about not wanting to play some of the scary parts and kept putting it off for a while, but in the end I played it again during the day time when it wasn't so bad and ending up finishing the game on the same day. The scary parts I remembered weren't actually all that bad, and strangely enough I actually kind of enjoyed that whole session. You'll see in the videos once they get uploaded that I was more positive as usual, as opposed to generally raging at my games when I die a lot.

The biggest shocker of all was actually finishing The Witcher 2, because for those of you who have never played it should realize that it's a very long game. It's especially much longer now because of all the extra content that got patched in to the game. It's actually kind of funny to see how far behind my playthrough is on youtube when I've already finished it completely. That kinda goes to show just how long the upload system was broken because I managed to finish a 30+ hour game. I don't know if it actually is that long, but normally that's how long it takes me to finish a good RPG.

So as of right now, there is sooo much content I need to upload to youtube before even getting started with a new playthrough session. However I do need to start thinking on something else to play now that I've finished every single LP I've had going. Something you guys want to see then just let me know through a message or something because I way too much stuff to choose from, and I'd hate to pick a game out there that somebody hates.
