Comment on Day 365 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I've been playing (One Year Anniversary!)
MyNameIsAtticus@lemmy.world 2 weeks agoI’d say it’s more so that I play a game and I’ll see something that makes me go “wow that’s cool”. So I’ll take a screenshot to share with friends. And I’ve been doing this for years. And I only have like 20 screenshots for a game at the end of the day. And initial initially It just started me showing off the backlog.
But it kind of turned into doing new screenshots every day. And I’m a college student, who right now doesn’t have a job. So, I have a lot of free time.
I have considered doing a blog. Maybe not YouTube reviews. Very much for me this is more like “here’s a cool thing I like. I like this. here’s why” and I feel like reviews, while they have their own merit, kind of take away from that. Because some of the games that I have played, I think there’s no denying that they’re bad games. I still like them though.
Though now I’m typing that, I suppose offering my opinion on these games as in a way made me a sort of reviewer. So regardless of whether I want to or not, my words hold some weight

That’s pretty cool man, respect that. Yeah, I get that 100%. Video Reviews can be pretty formulaic as well, good for stabilising an income if you can cultivate the audience. But, then it’s not something for you.
I suppose Ross from Accursed Farms does reviews that fit that category. Anyway, glad to see someone commit to something they care about and produce something of value consistently. Be proud of it.
