    "Kim Learns How", Kim takes unlikely members of the yogscast to learn some new skills. Videos include knitting with Hat films and Brewing with Simon?

    Nanobytes is a cool name! I think someone proposed that's what all the Kim fans should be called...

    ....Cornerstone is by far my favourite yogscast series. It has a good texture pack that is not sphax, many yogscast members WORKING TOGETHER rather tan doing there own shit, teams, secrets (huehue), polotics (?) and the mods are really fun. I hope the series goes on longer thann others. Cough cough SOA, the yogscast complete server series' sjins farm black rock chronicles etc.

    • @dongquixote481
      @dongquixote481 9 років тому +4

      Cornerstone is good but it isn't as good as SOI and Ycp because half of each episode is deciding who the mayor is.

    • @MGustave
      @MGustave 9 років тому +1

      What's good about cornerstone is it's infrequency, it doesn't feel stale and it's not too much mine craft for the content makers

    • @theralphnater
      @theralphnater 9 років тому

      Blackrock lasted a bit long and was becoming boorish to watch. If they had added something new it would've been better.

    • @reptileboy500
      @reptileboy500 9 років тому +3

      I'm pretty sure it's spelled "Bytes".

    • @ohmyghostness
      @ohmyghostness 9 років тому

      not bites.... like taking a bite of a cookie X3

    • @touisbetterthanpi
      @touisbetterthanpi 9 років тому

      Bro's Home 3 bites if you're eating something, bytes if computer information.

    • @arkadian235
      @arkadian235 9 років тому +1

      Wouldn't it be NanoBytes?

  • @candyman8924
    @candyman8924 9 років тому +11

    this reminded me of how amazing people of this community are .
    i would love it if you did an indie game series because you appreciate all the little details and you make everything look so nice and fun. i dont have any ideas for games or a better name because nanos bite is a pretty good name

  • @Therellar
    @Therellar 9 років тому +40

    For the indie game series: Kimdie Games

    • @damonhendry4668
      @damonhendry4668 9 років тому +13

      Hmm, only thing is, it reminds me of Sjindie Games.

      It makes no sense. Really.

  • @seripixelbiologist
    @seripixelbiologist 9 років тому +1

    I would absolutely LOVE to see a weekly vlog! I love the behind-the-scenes sort of feeling of just seeing how you are working on your channel, life, your excitement about projects that are coming up, all of that - its just such a fun, quick way to SEE you and it really makes me remember to stop by more often.
    Also Nanobites is SUCH A CUTE NAME!!

  • @howell2010
    @howell2010 9 років тому +10

    YES KIM I WOULD LOVE TO WATCH YOU FINISH THE LAST DOOR! I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR AGES! MY INTEREST HAS NOT DROPPED! I REALLY HOPE YOU DO PLAY IT AGAIN!

    • @howell2010
      @howell2010 9 років тому

      *cough* Sorry, I got a bit excited there. I am just really interested in the story of The Last Door and have been wanting to find out where it goes for ages.
      And point and click adventure games aren't my cup of tea >.>
      Plus of course I love Kim and have been a fan of hers since her first video and that was her second game featured on her channel if I remember right.

  • @loonygoldfish
    @loonygoldfish 9 років тому +5

    I love the idea of the Nanobites series :) sounds like an Evening with Sips and I love that series on Sips's channel so I'd love to see your version :) plus Q & A vlog stuff sounds great too :)

  • @TokyoKazama
    @TokyoKazama 9 років тому +1

    4:10 - 4:15 I'm amazed at how efficient her 'hat equipping' skill is that she was able to go from cute to very cute in such a short time. Whenever I put a woolie hat on, it takes a good 30 seconds of faffing to get it to sit just right, with just the right amount of hair on show etc. But this was expertly done.

  • @acnologia1337
    @acnologia1337 9 років тому +10

    The name "Nanobites" sounds great! :D also Kim please do the weekly Q&A's I personally think its a fantastic idea.
    Keep up the great work! :D

  • @YamiChip
    @YamiChip 9 років тому +3

    PLEASE finish Last Door! I was so sad when I was watching the series and realized that it wasn't done.
    I think NanoBytes (or Bites) is a cute name and I'd enjoy getting to see it. Especially if you play a game there and if we enjoy it enough that you'd be willing to do a full playthrough.
    I think a biweekly Q&A is a good idea. Weekly might be a bit much, but every couple a weeks getting to see your face would be nice.
    Uhhhh were there other questions? If Fright Night with Hannah could last forever that would be fantastic.

  • @obese999

  • @DelusiveWhisper
    @DelusiveWhisper 9 років тому +1

    Yes to everything, especially The Last Door. I've loved your play through of it so far and I'd love to see the rest of it.
    Just more Kim in general would be cool c:

    @mortiusshrek8038 9 років тому +2

    Great video Kim! Keep up the great work and we'll be waiting for the Nanobytes series soon!

  • @SouthpawHolmes
    @SouthpawHolmes 9 років тому +2

    That actually sounds like a great idea for a name/idea! I could definitely get into that, fairly easily.

  • @sycotic51
    @sycotic51 9 років тому

    Kim i think i speak for everyone thats a fan, we want anything and everything you got to offer

  • @sethk1151
    @sethk1151 9 років тому +2

    I like the sound of Nanobite, it will be something like Evening with Sips or Sjindie Games, I guess? And I would suggest a bi-weekly vlog, a weelky vlog alongside all other stuff you're doingmay put too much pressure on you, which could in turn may impact your health and/or video quality.
    But all in all, I think we have everything we need for another awesome year of Yogscast mayhem :D

  • @michaelproeber1953
    @michaelproeber1953 9 років тому

    I think the most unique thing about Kim is that she's more personal than any other Yogscast member; for example she does vlogs and posts messages herself rather than someone else managing her channel. Kim is also very selfless and caring. A lot of people think you're annoying, Kim, but I think you're my favorite c:

  • @blueberrymuffin36
    @blueberrymuffin36 9 років тому +1

    kim you should definitely pick the last door up again! it was a really great series back when you originally did it and i'd love to see you continue it

  • @MaximusDru
    @MaximusDru 9 років тому +2

    I definitely support the weekly Q&A video, im not a big Indie game fan i have enjoyed a few of them but its not my thing, but im sure plenty will love the idea.
    A possible suggestion on what to do this year, how about doing some Livestreams like maybe 1 a month or every 2 months depending on your schedule, i know Hannah has mentioned she's planning on doing some this year and since you did a Nosgoth stream last year which was fun it would be nice to see you a bit more active on Twitch as well.

  • @b2bsuplex
    @b2bsuplex 9 років тому +4

  • @IsabelWest
    @IsabelWest 9 років тому

    These series ideas sound so good ***** !!! Nanobites is a brilliant name and the Q&A's sound brilliant. You're definitely the best person in the Yogscast for connecting with your fans and involving us in stuff that you do so thank you for that!

    @ishallbebuttercup 9 років тому +1

    @beinginthedark 9 років тому

    @LavvyWuff 9 років тому +1

    Nanobites sounds adorable :) I love it, either as a name for bitesized game videos, or as a name for your fans, or as both~ Do the Q&A videos, definitely :) I'll have to go back and check out your Last Door playthrough, but I know I'd be interested in seeing more of it

    @ravenssoul1987 9 років тому

    Hohokum is adorable and I think you'd really enjoy it! would suit the short series thing as well as there's a lot you can mess around with in it. Love the name! aannnddd finally, I'd love to see a full play through of The Last Door. The bit you did on it really peaked my interest.
    keep up the good work

    @Hollybliss 9 років тому

    All of these ideas sound great! Currently really enjoying cornerstone and flux buddies!

  • @Bravster
    @Bravster 9 років тому

    NanoBytes and Weekly Q&A sounds great, possibly get a poll going between a few game ideas of what to play per week?
    Also please go through the Last door series as it was awesome.
    I did have an idea called "How to Train your Nano" where you could pick a game that you're interested in but may not necessarily know how to play or where to start and have someone either from PlayStation Access or one of the Yogs to teach you what they know.

  • @mooples7287
    @mooples7287 9 років тому +1

    One shot series is a good idea. I just wouldn't limit it to indie games. I would play whatever game was on your mind at the time. I think that would make a very genuine commentary.

  • @jorgg.7186
    @jorgg.7186 9 років тому

    Love the idea of Nanobytes, I'd definitely watch that. Q&A is also good, do it if you have the time! YEEEESSSS to you playing more Last Door and more horror games in general. Fright Night is one of my all-time favorite series on youtube, you and Hannah are a fantastic team.

  • @Philosopanda
    @Philosopanda 9 років тому +1

    As soon as you said nano bytes I freaked! It's so perfect for something like that! Somebody below me also suggested doing random bargain bin games or older games, that would be cool too. And I get what you said about wanting more multi player games, sometimes it's just not as fun by yourself. Whatever you do, we'll be watching! and that sounded a bit creepier than I intended..... ah well. ^>^

  • @frangomintable

    Hey Kim! To start, I'd love to see an indie games series and I think the name Nanobytes is super adorable! I'd also love to see more of you with more vlogs, as I've been loving the ones you've already done. Lastly, when you mentioned 'The Last Door' I was so happy! I loved that series and it'd be amazing if you'd bring it back. Anyway, thanks!

  • @BrennanFlanders
    @BrennanFlanders 9 років тому

    I like Nanobites. Sounds adorable. And on the topic of a Q&A maybe monthly, just gives more time to give more thoughtful questions, you won't run out of questions as fast as it's a series id be interesting in watching and I just feel them too often may get boring. But I love the ideas and hope this year will be a good one for you.

  • @TorinKurai
    @TorinKurai 9 років тому +1

    Sometimes it sounds like Kim and other members of the Yogscast pronounce Hannah as "Hanar" and now I want to see fan art of Hannah as a Hanar (Mass Effect).
    Also Nanobytes sounds fun, I approve!

  • @danielwinchester7947

  • @UndeadDomain
    @UndeadDomain 9 років тому +1

    I got a boatload of suggestions for you Kim.
    1st Nano Bytes sounds great, I'd keep the title
    2nd a Weekly or Bi Weekly Vlog would be awesome.
    3rd for Single Player games for Nano Bytes, I'd Suggest:
    This War of Mine, A survival game that takes place in the middle of a war
    The Long Dark, A Survival game that takes place in the Canadian wilderness
    Stranded Deep, a game about a plane crash survivor
    4th For Fright Night with Hannah, I'd suggest:
    Alchemilla, a Half Life 2 Mod based on Silent Hill
    The Forest, It has 2 player Co-Op so you and Hannah can play together
    And Project Zomboid, another recently added Co-Op feature.(Obviously Zombies lol)
    and 5th, I don't think it'd fit for Nano Bytes unless you include Multiplayer with it, I'd suggest Don't Starve Together. I don't know who you'd pick play with but I would like Duncan. That would be fun. Thanks for Reading, Your stuff rocks. You are one of my inspirations for what I do, Later!

    I still love your Ffxiv videos. Please get back into it! It was so much fun seeing you dungeoning. But if not Ffxiv then indie games are perfectly fine. Glad to see that you are back. Whatever you choose it will be awesome! Keep at it girl!

    I love the name Nanobites and I would love to see like Q&A's or a weekly vlog. ^^ Also, loved looking at your bookshelves in the background!~ I'm a total book nerd, so I was sad I couldn't have a closer look at your shelves. ^^'''

    Also, love the idea of NanoBytes for a new series. And Q&A vids are always great to watch. I don't know any multiplayer games to suggest though :-(
