don’t allow social media to skew your perception of yourself. don’t let social media consume you. it’s okay to take a step back when this shit gets too overwhelming.
aye though, shoutout to everyone who stayed subbed or came back to fuck with me after being gone for a few years.
that shit is crazy and i appreciate y’all.
i didn’t plan on sharing much about my Japan trip, but i just had the most wholesome experience and idk if anything will ever top this. [long read]
our first night was chaotic. long flight, issues with JR passes etc. whatever (that’s another story).
at 4am i’m getting ready for
ARCHEAGE IS WHERE CRYY CAME FROM!
it’s the reason for my name, current friends & why my channel gained any traction at all back in the day.
thank you for the memories you beautiful pay2win piece of shit 🥲
ate some 🍄 yesterday.
took a nap.
woke up to my wife shaking me and telling me my daughter ate a bag of concrete mix from the garage.
i was freaking tf out.
i don’t have a wife.
i don’t have a daughter.
“just cover mmo content again. you’ll be back on the map with views and sponsors.”
*me as i plan the next indie horror game video that will continue to kill my channel*
the lady who oversees this parking lot in little tokyo always makes sure to have a private parking space for me on weekends, even if the lot is ‘full’.
she calls me her son.
that’s my second mom frfr.
Japan was without a doubt the best experience of my life.
we went there with no schedule and no plans. spent most of the time just exploring and LIVING in it rather than doing a bunch of tourist shit.
life changing fr.
i’ll never forget it.
leaving Vegas tonight.
ESO event vlog will be posted (hopefully) this week.
i have a few other videos to edit for other channels and gotta finish taxes..
then we’re back to RE4.
UPDATE:
i went back to gamestop in an attempt to buy my switch back and repair it myself since it’s outside warranty.
when the staff accidentally touched the screen, it made noise.
screen stayed black but it docked.
my saves are here and i’m putting them on an SD as we speak.
my nintendo switch OLED died.
traded it in today for a new one assuming all my saves were stored in the cloud.
brother..
i lost my completed Violet pokedex.
200+ hours in Zelda.
Xenoblade 3, SMT & more.
i’m gonna throw up 😕
as much as i wanted to do a Lies of P playthrough and keep up with other shit, i’m maaad burnt out.
YT is one of many things going on in my life right now, and i want to make sure it remains fun - so i’m taking a lil break.
i’ll be back by Lords of the Fallen 🫡
i’m in my garage working (midnight)
i hear some footsteps outside and see my roommate appear out of the dark
“sup”
i’m like what are you doin out here?
“chillin. searching for queen ants”
bruh 😭😭😭 what
attending an ESO event next week in vegas.
@SHINYAMOUTH
/ ESO veteran is dragging me to it.
i’ll record/vlog and then work on part 2 of Resident Evil 4 👊🏼
made it ‘home’.
saw my parents and friends i haven’t seen in years.
also ate at this restaurant where the waitress has been working there for 30 years.
it’s wild knowing she would serve us back in the day after school and now we’re approaching 30.
that thought just hit me and
me and my older brother used to race home after school to watch the latest ep of DBZ. bout the only thing we ever bonder over.
first tattoo i got was from DB.
i could go on.
so much of our favorite media only exists because of the goat. rest in paradise 🫡🖤
i’ve ran into quite a few people at AX who recognize me from Youtube, but like OG.
friends i had in MMOs from 2017 and people telling me they watched during college.
always feels surreal meeting internet homies in person.
man just asked me for gas at a gas station and started rubbing my back and stomach 😭🤣 bro
i agreed on 2 bucks. he asked for 5 “please sir, please”
i gave em 5, this mf said “just 6, please sir” started rubbing me 🤣🤣
watch as i visit hell (vegas) and attend a very cool ESO chapter preview event with my friend
@SHINYAMOUTH

completed the story, but trying to 100% the game.
would HIGHLY recommend.
i don’t like fishing games btw lol.
i feel for bro even having to make this video. had a similar situation myself.
normally i’d keep these issues private but since this has went somewhat public and affects my work ~
i let a friend stay with me for 3 years rent-free. mind you, my rent ranged from 2800-4700
my friend & editor
@SPCLSPRHERO
leaves for the military soon, and when he does, i’ll probably step back from Youtube again.
wouldn’t have been uploading without him.
going forward, i’ll probably just stream and upload VODs to side channel.
