    I'm 71 years-old now and have only been playing Video games since I retired. I'm on my third playthrough of Oblivion and I think it must rank among the top 5 open world games ever created. Bethesda has 3 tin the top five and is joined by GTA 4 and Red Dead Redemption. On this playthrough of Oblivion It's crashed about 6 times already but it doesn't matter, it's still a fantastic game.

    Ultimately man, make the content you want to make and look after yourself first and foremost. I might not understand the intricacies of the algorithm, but you're a well-spoken dude who echoes the experience of a lot of folk who started enjoying gaming fully in the 2000s. Maybe branch out if you're feeling the fatigue? Do more analytical/essay-style stuff or even try new genres of games to check out gaming scenes you've missed out on or never got into? Just my two cents

      Yeah, really cool reply.
      Not really familiar with your channel but you're clearly a pretty intelligent guy so this feeling will likely get on top of you and affect your output regardless. Video editing and community management has a good amount of transferable skills allowing you to easily change careers which you might want to begin investigating as a backup option. in the mean-time try transitioning the videos (I hate the term 'content') you make towards something which grabs or inspires you and see if your audience follows you there, You unfortunately(?) can't just keep doing the same thing for ever like a worker drone when it relies on a creative spark. Good luck!

    Theres 2 main ways a career in UA-cam can be perpetuated.
    1: Either you kinda just... check out. set aside your time and do the work, and accept that its a job. Not all jobs are fun, Or at least not ALWAYS fun, but I think for myself, I recognize that its better than most of the alternatives. I churn out content, i do stuff i don't really care about, and I do the work without much thought or feeling, and just once every now and then, I feel a spark about my content when the stars align.
    2: you go the way of say "Nakey Jakey" or "HBomberguy" and simply choose ONLY to put out content that moves you personally, or makes you feel proud. Wait for the project or concept that really pulls at you. You make it "Art". and you feel happier, more proud, more easily inspired and more relaxed about your schedule.
    Option 1 drains you, but makes you more $ and keeps the brand and legacy alive. Option 2 makes you more happy and helps you feel more fresh and inspired by your work. Unfortunately, neither is a perfect choice, Either way, The choice is yours to make. Where do you fit on that spectrum? I know your audience, the good ones, will be here to soak it in regardless🙂

    Oh, man, you touched so many points that I felt when I first played it back when it released. It was also my first BGS game and in my heart, its the most special one. It's up there in my Top 5 of all time,
    I was 16ish but I've always been a scaredy cat. Entering Kvatch and getting swarmed by those little fucks scared the living crap out of me. I remember taking a break from the main quest because I was scared to go in there. But I persisted and I'm glad I did.
    After leaving the sewers for the first time, i didnt swim to the ruins in front, I went back and entered a random area of the imperial city and let me tell you, my mind was BLOWN. I had never seen a city so "alive" in any video game. Merchants selling, npcs talking to each other, this dude giving out the newspaper... I still have that image in my head and how I felt well, I have rarely felt like that with any other game. I've been searching for a game to give me that same feeling and its been almost impossible.
    Oblivion was home for me for a long LONG time. I just loved going into a random direction and finding out ruins, bandits, new towns, guild quests. The music in the background with the birds and wind. Walking on a random road and turning around to see the imperial city with a sunset... it was just too damn special. I swear I could talk about this game for hours.

    From one random person on the internet to another, definitely priotitize yourself and happiness first. When your passion becomes something you feel you "must" do rather than "want" to do, the fun and magic will made. I work full time and have a tiny channel that I maintain when I'm feeling it and try not to just force a video for the sake of it. If it takes weeks/months between videos, so be it. That being said I've really enjoyed your content, especially your Star Citizen videos. Make the videos you want to make, when you want to make them. Wishing you all the best buddy! ❤

    I would love to still see you do revisits of older games, but I would also love to see new content forms from you. I've struggled with my own mental health for some time, and sometimes I would get that feeling when I sat down at my PC like "I'm supposed to be playing games, why do I feel like doing nothing, games used to make me happy", but I think the biggest problem with that is that I was trying to force the happiness, force myself to play games I think I should like, instead of putting a game down if I didn't feel like it, taking time for other hobbies, and only gaming when I really do feel happy to play. I know these videos have their niche, but I know if you branched out to other types of videos I'd give it a watch. the most important thing is taking care of yourself. you don't have an obligation to entertain us, but I also want you to know when I didn't feel like doing anything at all your content helped me feel content for a while.

    I too always say Oblivion holds a special place in my heart. It really has a special magical feeling to it when you play it as kid completely unfamiliar to those types of games. For some reason, the weapon models look better than in Skyrim imo.
    Anyways, I enjoyed the honest ending note. Never watched you before. Didn't even plan on watching the whole video but gladly did.

    as someone who is growing up w modern games, im sort of glad i have a low end pc that allowed me to experience games like oblivion, morrowind, fallout 3 / NV, san andreas etc. If i had a high end device i feel like i wouldnt even have touched any of those games purely because i never grew up with them.

    this is crazy to watch lmao i had the exact same experience replaying the beginning of the game recently like you showed and decided to walk to kvatch as well. ran into the molag bal shrine and i don't think i ever saw that when i was a kid😂 had to drop the comment as soon as I saw you ran into the same thing and mentioned bethesda charm.
    what an incredible game, hopefully we'll get something good with ES6. great video, new sub :)
    on the note of what you said in the last bit of the video, all i can say as someone new around here, is I really liked this video. cozy and relatable

  • @Lol_Pig

    I loved Oblivion, but the game I grew up with was Ultima VII back in '92. If you find yourself wanting to experience a great early open world rpg dungeon crawler, I strongly recommend diving into it.

  • @ItsDatCajunStuff

    This was the first game I ever played that I could lose entire days to. I put well over a thousand hours into, and while it absolutely shows its age today, it's still impressive what Bethesda was able to achieve with one of the first truly great open world games of its kind.

    1:57 Had I played Oblivion as a child, seeing this presumably person-sized de-re-animated corpse next to a dead rat, realizing they were almost the same size + that rat was a ROUS...well, that'd catalyze a very specific horror that'd embed in the corners of my psyche & grow into an irrational gripping phobia I'd be unable to explain.

    You might want to try Nehrim, it's a game made using the Oblivion Engine and all it had to offer, taken to the extreme.
    Its audio is in German though, so it's comparable to watching anime with English subtitles.
    It really is a crazy well made game, I was very impressed when I played it. Especially since I already love Oblivion, and it shows what could have been done if more creative energy had gone into Oblivion, with many things being handcrafted, unique dungeons, deeper plot and storyline etc

    Not really someone who comments on videos a lot but just here to say that I'm still enjoying the videos. However, if you find something that sparks your passion and that passion comes through in your videos, it will definitely enhance everything. Sometimes taking that time away is exactly what is needed.
    Regardless of what you decide to make, I'll still be here watching :)

    Many consider Oblivion a joke, with the goofy npc faces and the like 6 voice actors, but for me it's a fantastic fantasy rpg that really sells this pseudo-medieval world. Also has some of the best side quests in the series, especially for the guilds.
