I love this kinda stuff! I can still play some games but things that are text heavy or first person or rely on quick reactions to tiny visual cues aren’t within my abilities. LPers are how I experience them.

I would most definitely subscribe to either your YouTube Channel or Podcast especially if you read and did not skip through text and described the pictures. I have been looking for that forever.

My boyfriend would love this so much.

Awesome that is all good feedback, I'll pick up a mic and get it started during the holidays.

Hey MostlyBlind, just checked out Oxhorn and those videos look awesome. My plan is a little bit of a different format, but I did not think about engaging the NPC as if we're in a real conversation, I'll take that cue from him if he doesn't mind.

Definitely planned on going into detail about the text. I also planned to describe the gameplay & combat as well, in addition to the story. How does that work for everyone, is this preferable to break down the video game itself, or do you prefer to keep it as one continuous story/more audiobook style and not break the immersion?

Also looking to go through games that I haven't played yet, or at least gotten far into yet. This way we can go through it together, and I can talk about it while it's still fresh in my mind.

The playthroughs might end up being long, because I typically do a lot of sidequests and get sidetracked going off the beaten path. For that reason I was thinking of possibly going through 2 or 3 different games at a time. Games in the same vein as Horizon Zero Dawn, Outward, some point & clicks that are on Steam, maybe even older ones like Baldur's Gate (somehow I let it pass me by when I was younger). The first game I actually planned on doing is Death Stranding, but I'm not married to the idea yet.

Any feedback on any of the above would be great. Also just a heads up that there is a delay in my posts due to me being a new user on Reddit.

I'd subscribe to a podcast more than a YouTube channel, but yeah. I'd love this.

That sounds cool.

You should check out Oxhorn on YouTube. He makes videos on Fallout focusing on either specific locations or on the story of the games.

He describes things very well and reads all the text.

Sounds good :)

Not blind, but I'd love that! I put on LPs to listen to while doing other stuff, but with most games I miss a lot that way.
