Hi Xel'crin! I am a fan from utube and I wanted to say that ur vids are awesome! Sad to just now sub and realize u have not returned :( pls more
I’m glad you liked the videos! I have plans to do some limited series one day and maybe even just general videos again ONE DAY but likely not on YouTube. After I got kicked from the Partner Program with everyone else, it really opened my eyes to just how fragile the system is and how little they care about their creators.
It’s more then that though. Take out the money incentive. I can get a job, I could still do everything for fun and likely would, right? The problem is, I don’t want to give people false hope. A belief, that you can just hop on, make videos and chill out and be happy. That era is dead. Your videos get hidden in results as they are demonetized. They force run ads on your videos without your consent. There is just so much wrong with YouTube that I could never in good terms come back to the site with a smile on my face. Not even a fake one.
All of this said, I do plan to come back and make videos one day. It will likely be a grand reset though and I’ll have a lot to sort out and figure out but what I can guarantee is that with the state of how YouTube is going, I will not be returning to that website. It will be somewhere else. Wherever that may be.
I originally planned to return to Twitch but they are even worse then YouTube so one day I’ll likely just nuke that account by going on a livestream and just going mental for shits and giggles to get myself banned. Look forward to that as I’ll make sure it’s recorded haha.
Anyway though, the when. Well, put simply, it’s not even about my story based work that I have made a lot of progress on. Since leaving YouTube I have been working on my health. It ebbs and flows but I have made good progress! Once my situation is sorted I’ll likely return for fun to whatever website I go to. Until then though, you’ll just have to wait and see. That’s likely far off yet though.
I will one day be making an update video as a lot has changed since my goodbye video. Example: Terius and I are on very good terms again now. Lexi showed back up. Etc. etc. Lot’s of stuff to discuss :).
TLDR: I’ll be returning to A WEBSITE... ONE DAY. Series will return in limited amounts. Examples being a new (Third) season of the Minecraft Nations series. The world has continued to evolve and expand beyond the file I put out there for people to download. Meaning some parallel universes might have been made. Sorry >__>. Let’s plays will likely be scrapped or redone depending as most games I started for just YouTube I just went ahead and finished or abandoned once I was kicked. I might even do an entire new format and style but I’m not yet sure on that either. It’s all up in the air right now with what I’ll be doing. I’ll give more solid answers on the “what” when it’s actually closer to happening.
