Okay folks, so it’s been a while since I’ve posted, but I have something to announce… well, I have other things I’ve done too, but this is about an upcoming Let’s Play series which will be on YouTube (as well as LBRY and Bitchute, be that not too long after or around the same time, depends on what happens when I publish to YT), and a related “special stream”, so if you want to know more, then read on!
The mini-series entitled “IsaacStorm – Prelude to Repentance” (yes, I did take a tiny bit of influence from Sinvicta and his “Isaacvicta” series) will now officially be starting on Tuesday the 2nd of March, in order to allow me more time to get things set up! I’ll be publishing 3 videos a week, on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays, with a special 3 hour stream happening on the 31st of March to coincide with the release date of Repentance! The series itself doesn’t officially end until the 3rd of April, so the VOD for the Twitch stream won’t actually be published till midnight on Sunday the 4th of April, as in the actual timeline, it comes after the video published on Saturday, though I might end up including a highlight reel for the entire month of videos, and depending on things, I may also have a highlight reel for the stream, but one step at a time!
The way things are at the moment, I plan to record either 5 or 10 “preparation” videos, both to get me used to doing LP videos again, but also because I said before that I’ll be doing 10 videos before I start properly, but depending on how I feel, I may only get 5 videos recorded, with the final video being the backdrop for my introduction to the series (as Episode 0), though I do have plans to later release a highlights reel of those 5 or 10 videos, but later on, be that after I learn how to edit videos! The same goes for the 1-2 other highlight reels I’d want to, although that said, if anyone wanted to do some clips on the stream, they might actually also appear in the highlight reel as well! Either way, my main aim for now is getting those 5/10 videos recorded, then recording at least 3 for next week from Tuesday, although depending how I get on, I may start recording 4 videos a week just to make things a bit easier for me!
As I hash things out, I’ll reveal more and more about what’ll happen, although realistically, I’ll probably just make another post in 2 weeks to summarise the updates and also discuss future plans, though I’ll always be filming a few days in advance, in that I’d be recording the 3-4 episodes over Friday-Monday, if not before, and have them release at 22:00 hours UK time each day, giving me time to make any changes if needs be. I should have OBS ready to go now that I’ve sorted out a few things with it, such as bit rate, channels, FPS and other bits, but I’ll need to do a test run before I can declare it 100% sorted! In any case, I’ll see how I get on with the first 5 videos in Slot 1 (if I said Slot 2, I made a mistake; Slot 2 is for streaming!), and if I have time, I’ll do another 5, and on the last video, I’ll do some post-play commentary to introduce the mini-series and any other relevant info.
And those that are wondering what happens after the mini-series concludes? Well, I won’t be resting on my laurels, as from the 6th of April till the 1st or 3rd of June (I’ll decide if I want to keep doing 3 episodes or drop down to 2, in which case it’ll be Tuesdays and Thursdays), I’ll be doing a full series of IsaacStorm, which will be Series 1; I may choose to lengthen it to 6 months, but I’ll cross that bridge when I come to it, as I need to see how I’ll be for 3 months, although I may actually have a 3 month run for Series run, and lengthen it to 6 months for every series after, but it depends on what happens over Series 0 and 1 as to how I’ll continue.
Either way, I’m going to stop it here for now, as I have a lot to do before I’m ready to start recording, not least making final prep for my setup! I’ll announce on the socials when I start releasing episodes, so be sure to follow me to keep updated!
