Congratulations on 30K and well deserved! I love your channel.

@orbalology 4 месяца назад

Thank you 😊

@zach177 4 месяца назад

Yeah streaming games is not for everyone. I would much rather play alone or with friends on the tv or online play.

@tonyp9313 4 месяца назад

Yeah agreed. I rather play games alone.

@View619 4 месяца назад

It's also not a great feeling to wait around for engagement and get nothing but silence. Playing alone at least eliminates that stressor and allows you to relax.

@George-zk4nv 13 дней назад

Congrats on 30k! Im sure that a lot of time has gone into all of the videos youve done this past two years - and just know that we're all appreciative of it. Great answer on the streaming front. It's not for everyone and not always just for anxiety reasons - but also for personal enjoyment reasons. I for one am not sure i could get the same level of enjoyment from a game i was playing if i had to talk and make sure those watching were also enjoying it.

@binglebandit6151 4 месяца назад

Congrats on 30K! I'm very glad that I found your channel. I know youtube is very saturated with game content, but I feel like I can really relate to your content as I really got into gaming when I finished grad school and finally had more time for hobbies after spending a lot of time on my studies. I got into collecting back in 2016 or so when I bought my first SNES. From there I just fell down the hole of JRPGS. While a lot of the content remains on my backlog (it's hard to find time for gaming while working in academia), I'm always excited to hear other fans share their experiences and their collections. Also it's super nice to watch videos from other women who are interested in JRPGS. Most of the channels I follow are of men, and while their content is nice, it's refreshing to have a different perspective. I hope you continue to make videos for a long time. :D

Congrats on hitting 30K. I think I subscribed when you had 2K. Really enjoy your content and find it calm and relaxing without any pandering. Love that. It takes hard work and dedication to achieve what you've done here. What has been the hardest part of reaching this milestone for you?

@orbalology 4 месяца назад

Thank you! I'm not sure about the hardest part. Maybe time management and balancing everything 😅

@sanjithechef 4 месяца назад

Congratulations! To be honest, you are a big reason I began seeing collecting games and figured as something that can be more about highlighting favourite series and genres (JRPGs and VNs🥰) and less about hoarding every last title and keeping them in shrink wrap😅. Thank you. For helping us see the practical and gaming centric side of collecting and making this a fun place to talk about games/collecting.

@orbalology 4 месяца назад

I'm glad I was able to offer a different perspective on what I think is the fun side of collecting ☺️

@sonoftheredfox 4 месяца назад

Emily, your videos have helped me so much to rekindle some of what I've figured out I had lost internally when it came to my enthusiasm for just gaming in general AND well, just doing life. Taken a lot of inspiration from them! Your positivity is such a nice change from so many RU-vidrs in the gaming segment. Congratulations on 30K! I spend a lot of time on Tubi in the K-drama section. And if you haven't seen it yet, all the episodes Listening Snow Tower (with subs) is on RU-vid complete. It's maybe one of my favorite shows ever, if you haven't seen it.

@nichifix 4 месяца назад

A big Congratulations on the 30k subs! You def deserve it. Hard work pays off. It's been awesome watching your channel's growth and being apart of this community you've built. Also, it'd be cool if Naughty Dogg would revive Jak and Daxter. So many of their last few games have been so serious. It'd be cool to see them take on a platformer again.The turn around time on development wouldn't be as long either. Side note, I've found my Switch collection has doubled since I started watching.

@orbalology 4 месяца назад

I really miss the unserious humor from the Jak games! If they don't go back to Jak maybe a new mascot IP would be great from them.

@DrGamingPlays 4 месяца назад

Congrats again on the milestone, and thank you for taking the time to answer questions. Since you mentioned that you haven't gotten into too many "Tales of..." games, I liked Tales of Vesperia, and I think that got a re-release on the major consoles and probably isn't too expensive. Anyway... onward to 40k!

@orbalology 4 месяца назад

Oh I have this in the switch! I was torn between this and Tales of Berseria to play after Abyss.

Nice to know your are also a postdoc ☺️ wish you good luck for everything! and see you in the next video (if there will be a part 2 of the Q&A would be very nice 😊)

I wanted to share that memory and my excitement for it 😊.

I can try to do more reactions. I didn't do one for the last Nintendo partner direct because of time & I suspected there wouldn't be much. But I'll see if I can do one that showcases the next Nintendo console at least :)

@stephengoodman9058 4 месяца назад

Hi Emily, thanks for taking the time for the Q&A, I enjoyed it. Your list of “to be played” games was interesting, most of them are on mine too. The exception is GoW 2018 which I played last year and thoroughly enjoyed. It’s a great game and I think you’ll enjoy it - there’s a lot to like. As for streaming lets plays, I understand your concerns but I think they may be unnecessary. You don’t have to be a great entertainer, some of my favourite streamers are very laid back and I actually find the more excitable ones off-putting. People will come for your personality and opinions and if you’re not so outgoing that’s fine. If you advertise it on this channel you’re almost guaranteed a friendly and supportive audience. Chat will carry you through any slow periods 😄. You’ll never know if you don’t try 🤷🏻‍♂️. My only problem is that I’m in the UK so I’d be unlikely to catch you live unless you’re suffering from insomnia 😄

@PartyUpLive 4 месяца назад

I started streaming and didn't use a mic/camera. Turns out people liked watching me play games and finishing them, even though I never said anything other than occasionally chat messages. I eventually got a mic and once I got comfortable using it, it was a lot of fun talking with viewers and followers. Still, I don't like reading the dialog of the game, like for a rpg. Some streamers are great at it. I just play the game and talk if/when someone in chat talks to me. So, I say, if you're thinking about streaming, go for it and see how you like it.

@vincentvega3093 4 месяца назад

Struggle of backlog getting bigger with new releases. I am basically limiting myself to must play new releases at 50 bucks. Release dates don't matter but for the rare titles that need a preorder (Elden Ring Collectors Edition, GTA VI, Zelda). Most people who collect will have more games than time to play.
