I agree! In college, I was scared about not finding a job with my major, like his in college. And I watched his reviews, his creative videos and saw there are avenues I could take. Now I have a job from my major and I pour my more creative side into side projects, like a Twitch channel. The dude’s been a bigger inspiration on me than any other channel 💜

The mental health part of this video is crazy relatable and that’s oddly comforting since I have so much respect for you and what you create. Knowing you can be successful and have support circles even while dealing with bad anxiety like that is really reassuring. The only reason I’m even able to comment this is because you also mentioned writing replies to things and immediately deleting them which I started to do just now before realizing the irony lol

I identify exactly how he feels, I delete most things I write online for the exact reasons he says. Does this sound dumb, who cares about my opinion, etc. He isn’t wrong about seeking help from medication or therapy. I’ve been on that train for years. It’s slow going, but it can get better.

I kind of just beat my head against the wall at times until everything goes numb. Oh, I also piss a lot of people off because I come across as an arrogant asshole when I outsmart people (or just find something worth picking apart) and my use of expressive words amplify that. Eventually, I grew to embrace it as a sort of duel that I learn from each time I fight with words. With every word I say in my head as I'm writing, another part of my brain is calculating the expected response and I, the ego, ultimately decide to omit or change anything depending on the recipients and my intentions. This goes with when I'm on the attack, defense, or simply engaging casually. There is only one person I don't do this with. Thinking about that, yeah. It's a learned behavior from a lifetime of fighting, having my back against the wall, or just generally not trusting anyone even though I really like to engage with people.

Same thing for me too! I'm constantly second guessing what I write on social media. It's so hard because people can't tell what tone of voice I have or what facial expressions I have. I also find my self deleting replies or even having to type it out first in my notes app and editing it there like I'm writing some novel lol. I also put emojis after everything to hopefully let people know how I feel.

Honestly a Jampack demo disk of reviews for the games you want to review but won't feasibly get to make a full video for anytime soon sounds like a fantastic idea, especially for newer indies where a quick review soon after release can do a lot for them.

Man I remember looking at this channel back when you had four digit subscribers. I remember thinking, that it's crazy that this guy puts so much work into his videos but had such a relatively small audience at the time. Over the years I always hoped this channel would deservedly blow up. And I'm happy to see that it has. There are very very few people who put as much work into each and every video as you do. Your success is 10000% earned.

James I gotta say, thank you for being such a transparent creator. You're such a rarity on this site while a lot of others don't seem to trust their audience you've always seemed like you wanted to connect. Not in like a parasocial manner but just let us know what's going on the surface level with you and the channel. I'd love to see you and Bradey do a light gameplay channel and your idea for having one video for multiple indie games isn't bad at all! I can't wait to see what you'll do in the future, I'm sure it'll be great.

As someone who was prescribed anxiety medication late in life, it’s important to find a brand of medication that works for you. The first one I tried would give me stomach aches, which is pretty bad since anxiety also causes stomach issues, but it’s all part of the process of finding something that you feel comfortable with. Hope you find something that works for you, and I can’t wait for any new videos that you make in 2023.

Some meds can cause extreme weight gain and body chemistry imbalances that are incredibly difficult to bounce back from. I also suggest starting with therapy and seeing where you go from there. Also, make sure you get a good psychiatrist if you go the meds route that isn't just a pill pusher. They get commissions for prescriptions.

I started working on my mental health in my mid-20s. Therapy + medication that I eventually stopped needing. I had a decent 5-ish years of stability before my life's status quo got changed and anxiety went into overdrive. New career, new relationship, first apartment (those bills tho), new people (me? socializing???). Problems and fears that had never been challenged were suddenly challenged and I wasn't coping well. Not bad enough for medication, but definitely in need of more therapy sessions. Turning 30 got interesting. Medication is a trial and error thing and, for what it's worth, I never had problems. For me, life just felt less like a gauntlet. Hopefully this anecdote eases some worries. Take care!

Nitro Rad isn't just a name, it's a title only held by the raddest reviewer on RU-vid! I don't mind seeing compilation videos every now and then, but I'll always prefer having one game per video, and I think it's okay if you can't talk about every single game you want to talk about. Really like the idea of having a second channel though, it's always a treat to see more of you and Brady. Getting exercise is definitely a huge struggle for anyone who works from home. It's good that you have the awareness to recognize that. Also, I think you would look really good with glasses, and if they help you see better then why not? That ending killed me xD. It says a lot about your talent that you can make even an update video entertaining. I can't wait to see your review of the Addams Family!

I actually really relate to a lot of the personal anxiety problems described early on in the video, despite being quite a bit younger, so it was kinda comforting to know that even people I look up to and think are really cool can have the same struggles I do! I wish you the best handling all that, mental health can be a real pain in the ass. As for the rest of the video, personally speaking, I'd LOVE to see BradyJames become a real channel, all the videos of the two of you on this channel and Garanikor is some of my favorite stuff to watch on this whole damn website, and if the extra boost in revenue will help you out, I'f gladly be there to support it! The lack of any mention of an April Fools video was surprising to me after last year. If that means the tradition is over, I'll be a bit sad to see it go, but I at least hope that gives you more time to focus on yourself and other videos. REALLY looking forward to this next years' worth of videos, and PLEASE give your cats little kissies on the forehead for me, thank you!

I love your game reviews, NitroRad. Your reviews are so authentic and real and you're not trying to do them for a quick buck (unless some game reviewers do this days). You take time with your game reviews, and while your videos are long, they are done to not just break down the game-separately- but to also point out the good, the bad, and more bad aspects of games--whether it would be third party platform games, indie games, retro games, modern games or VR games. Glad to see ya back to your roots and reviewing classic games. That's why I support you by becoming a member on your channel. PS: Maybe in the future you can review popular PS2 game trilogies like Jak & Daxter, Sly Cooper, Final Fantasy, and even do popular/Action/Adventure shooting games like Call of Duty, Red Redemption, Uncharted, and Tomb Raider.

James, regarding your anxiety, if you're so relutant of seeing a doctor and start taking medication, you can always start small: Eat healthier, Go for a 3-minute walk outside when it's sunny, watch a video of cute animals, call in your family to hear from them and tell them that you love them. It makes a difference in your mood/energy. I wish you well bro🙏

I've seen a lot of RU-vidrs get anxiety and depression, especially after making RU-vid their full time job. The things they almost always list as helping is to find a good work/life balance (making sure to take breaks), and to see a therapist. Unfortunately, they usually start doing those things after their channel has fallen into disarray. Good luck man. Oh, and the BradyJames channel sounds like it'd be fun. Just make sure you aren't piling too much work onto yourself.

I completely relate to your troubles with anxiety. I'm 21 and i've been having the same thing, i've never felt anything like that so i don't think i have the tools to deal with it. It's very cool to know that someone as cool as you also feels that way, makes me feel like i'm not a madman (which is how i've been feeling these past few months). I think it would be worth it to try a format in which you show many games, that way you can leave the big videos to topics that are really worth it while also promoting all those great indie creators. I'm still happy about you promoting that one argentinian game, as an argentinian it made me very proud and happy. I would totally be down for a second channel. I enjoy your videos enough that i'd be more than happy to give a longer video format a try, plus it's awesome to have more stuff to hear in the background while working or playing minecraft. As always Kevin just knocks it out of the park with the designs, just incredible stuff what you guys put out. can't wait for the awesome stuff coming up next, thanks for always putting so much thought and effort on your videos, nowadays they're a rare treat in troubled waters.

"Is that what depression is?" Yes, at least in my experience. That is exactly how I'm like when my depression is really bad. A word of advice is that if you do decide to get medication for it, make sure you get one that works for you. I've been on medication and for me the wrong medication can basically cut off my emotions and creative drive, making it particularly hard to either get some work done or properly socialize with people. If you feel the medication you get is affecting you negatively make sure to let your doctor know so that you can get a better one. I hope things get better on that front for you. Also, I hope you have fun with your year of platformers! Looking forward to it!

Hey, if your dead set about playing Blue Stinger, I want to see that. But I also want to mention, the game actually takes place at Christmas. So if you want to reserve it for a christmas special instead of a halloween special, that could actually tie into it and be thematically appropriate. About the mental health, yeah absolutely look into the meds, they've helped a lot of people as they grow up, me included. And I would be onboard with seeing you and brady do stuff. A long whiles back I saw you both do a livestream of A Way Out and thought it was really good. And I had no idea you guys had a podcast so I'm definitely gonna give that a listen if I can.

Love the idea of a massive jam-packed video of different platformer games, btw! Since you're so familiar with platformers I'm sure you've heard of this game already, but just in case you haven't - I highly recommend Frogun. Absolutely amazing cutesy platformer indie that dropped in mid-2022 and I was so pleasantly surprised by the music, character design, gameplay mechanics and overall charm the game had. Was such a pleasant experience that I really think you'd vibe with! Anyway, best of luck with 2023 and I'm looking forward to your videos as always!

I think you might have my favourite channel on RU-vid. At least it's the most giving. I haven't found that many games to play from your videos, but I sure have found more from your channel than from any other. Demon Turf is easily one of the best games I've played, Super Sami Roll is also really nice. I played Anodyne before your video but really found it boring - but your video made me try it again and I did end up enjoying it. Not to mention Anodyne 2 which I would never have picked up if it weren't for you, and I absolutely loved it! I'm not even sure you made a Rayman video - but I absolutely thought about you when I decided to start Rayman 2 the other day, and it's friggin' great! As much fun as it is to watch AVGN review bad games, it doesn't really extend to me getting new gaming-experiences. Your reviews really help me find something to play whenever I want to just sit down and enjoy some new, shorter, game. Keep doing good stuff! You are amazing! EDIT: And a second channel is something I would absolutely watch, sounds great!

Your mental health experience is so relatable. I dont even have a big presence and I also type out responses and delete them with the same worries. I have always been an experimental drug guy but even I would not recommend anxiety/depression meds unless it's absolutely necessary. These medications usually have very long term effects and pretty much all of them have some severe side effects like diminished sexual function, brain zaps and weight gain. The much scarier thing is if you don't like it and stop taking the meds, People often get more severe mood issues and a higher self harm risk. Still these medications can be a literal life saver for some so just make sure you weigh your options seriously. Luckily mine is manageable. I exercise regularly and try to wait for the bad feelings to pass through and remember feeling awesome always comes back eventually. No self harm or anything so no emotion altering meds for me. Sorry for the long ramble I just hope this might help even a little bit! From one Maratimer to another: You are not alone and you are very likable. Keep up the good work!

I really like your one game per video format because it feels like you’re giving this single game all of your time and attention and the script and topics reflect your thoughts on any given game and I love hearing those kinds of feelings on games but I would love to see a video on multiple games at once depending on how it’s handled. I have complete faith that you’ll do all of these games justice! Also I’m playing Signalis because of what you had to say in the Raddest Games video so I skipped the story details in your Signalis video so as to not be spoiled but rest assured I’ll go back and give that video the full watch time it deserves! Keep doing what you love because that’s what I love watching. Keep it up!!!

I rewatch your content pretty much every week, you have entertained me since early 2017 and I couldn't be more greatful for the stuff you make. Hearing you're tackling more obscure platformers is the best possible news. I hope you know your stuff is some of the best on all of RU-vid!

I think the jampack idea is a great idea, so long as it doesn't become your bread and butter. I like you specifically because of how in-depth you are with every game you review, I don't think there's many other youtubers out there that try to go in-depth on the themes a game tries to explore. But I also acknowledge that you are a pretty big platform, sometimes being a huge reason why an indie game gets a bunch of sales. So yeah, go for it! Just, make it more sporadic if you can.

On your sponsor problem , its always nice to look at contract to see how long the sponsor has to stay on , or you can try to negotiate for it to be 1/2 year . Just make the segment very standalone and with the youtube editor you can edit them out pretty easily and future proof you videos this way , I know some people who do that and it works pretty well .

I care a ton about you, James. I've been watching you for the past seven years, and I am so happy you're still here and making videos. This update video felt like I was catching up with an old friend. I also hope your anxiety gets better. I know it isn't fun and I know what it's like, but not quite in a social way. I think the second channel idea is cool! I would be down to watching you and Brady do whatever because you're always a ton of fun together. I look forward to your content this year!

I've never fought so hard over myself when it comes to wanting to watch a video of an overview of something I desperately want to play. It just comes at the risk of the experience being spoiled, but the fact that your thumbnails alone can push me to view something I've never seen before are incredibly impressive. Really hope others are like this as well - and of course they watch the content too.

It's exciting to hear what ideas and plans you have in store since your content is always something to look forward to. Even though you did mention about going through anxiety, and other struggles like socializing, it's motivating to see you still pursuing and being honest with overall has occurred since it shows you can push through such struggles and still continue making entertaining reviews and podcasts.

Totally feel you on the mental health front. Was at my lowest point over the last few years, and spent far too long putting off seeking any professional help til I reached what I'd consider the moment before the point of no return. You gotta see somebody, it can be life-changing, whether it's CBT or medication. Sometimes you can't recognise how bad things have gotten, and you don't realise certain symptoms are the result of something else. I didn't realise how physical a mental issue could be until I started taking antidepressants and beta-blockers, both of which have changed my life. The irony is sometimes you start antidepressants and you get depressed at how happy you feel after so long, how you could have felt like this so much earlier. Your symptoms (GERD, fatigue and social anxiety) are so similar to mine. Also your aversion to medication is me to a tee too. I don't normally comment on videos, but it was almost eerie how much I felt every word you said on this section. Taking a leap and leaving a comment here to reach out and offer my experience. I've felt more creative, more confident and more fulfilled as a person since I started my medication. I hope you can find support and keep up the good work. Love the stuff you're doing, and know I'll love what you've got in-store for 2023, keep up the good work brother and know that the fact you're supporting your friends and trying to branch out is the sign of a truly good soul in the arts. Whether you're aiming for sincerity or irony, know the most important part of what you're making is that you stay true to yourself, and that you get to a point where you don't focus on value judgements and stay the course on personal development. Every step you take leads to the next, no matter how hard you stumble.

go for walks, get that sunlight, remove seed oils from your diet, that will give you a big boost in your mood, and try to go to bad at 2 and get up around 9 if you go to bed way late, that helped a lot!

To me, one of the greatest aspects of indie games is the mystery that they have to them. You have no frame of reference as to what could happen. As such, only having a five minute pitch for each game makes sense to me. You'll get all the important highlights of each game with less spoiled about it overall. And having several in a single video allowing for comparisons between some of them will be perfect to spread their names amongst people who will enjoy them. 😄

Wayyyy back in the early years of your channel when you were most well known for Yume Nikki, you put multiple games in one video and in my opinion it worked wonders. I'd love to see stuff like that but with indie platformers

I think the 2nd channel idea sounds neat! And as someone who sometimes has a hard time sitting down to just watch letsplays, I personally still think the dynamic you described sounds like something I could listen to in the background while drawing, even if I’m not watching the actual gameplay.

Honestly I'm glad that you're going back to your roots of reviewing old and obscure games! It allows them to get a ton of attention and for the older obscure ones it allows those games to get remakes that help them succeed in better times for games. And doing a whole year of horror games might be great too(perhaps 2025?)

Honestly, I'm really excited for some the games you have planned. I'm really hoping you talk about Graffiti Kingdom, favorite game as a kid. Like I know it's probably been requested to death but I do wanna see your thoughts about it. Also, Mental Health is important. You'll struggle with it but at the same time, it's worth it when you're able to overcome it.

So glad to see you're still moving forwards positively and taking care of yourself and your family. I adore seeing all your purrecious cats! They are all unique and amazing! (My void baby Truffles also doesn't understand treats and loves to lick tape like Hornet, though she looks like Pickles.) Honestly, if you felt up to it, it'd be awesome to get a quick kitty video sometimes in between your main works! And lastly, i love the Twitter pic with you and Pickles. He looks like he's never had a single thought in his whole life xD 💕💕💕

This is what makes you special, you’re transparent/honest, informative about what you’re doing/have done/planned, and personal. Keep it up and take care of yourself. I started therapy this year and it’s been life changing. We go to the gym to better ourselves physically and school for mental, why is emotional (or mental in different way) taboo? (Also this rant i 🆔’d hard to 14:11 )

Nitro! If you play Blue Stinger, understand that there are two versions. One with a fixed camera, RE style and one with a 3d camera. The 3d one in the most common one, the fixed camera stayed in Japan. Both still have English voiceovers. Cheers!
