YouTube
I upload content to YouTube as and when I feel like it to a variety of channels, feel free to check them out!
My main channel, where I put out my biggest content that I'm the most proud of.
My secondary channel, here I'll put whatever, usually of a lower quality than on Boko.
Here I upload 'Beta' unfinished content, to help me stop worrying about quality.
My livestream channel. Features VODs, clips, and even highlights if we're lucky.
My History with YouTube
My main presence online has always been through YouTube, which has had many ups and downs for me, including taking a two year break when Covid hit.
Here you can find a timeline of my channel and what I did with it, all the way up till the creation of this website, in 2022.
2016 | Channel Creation |
At the time I was very excited for the release of The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, and as such I decided to make a YouTube channel as a way to express that and theorise about stuff. | |
Most of the videos were nothing special, some of them even outright weird, but I look back on it fondly for how excited I was with it, and how I just did whatever I wanted regardless of my small size at the time. |
2017 | Breath of the Wild Release |
With the game actually out, I switched over to making gameplay videos about weird ways to play the game. This was when I ‘blew up’. | |
I stuck with this until towards the end of 2018. |
2019 | Changing Things Up |
Around the start of 2019 I started running out of ideas for my gameplay content, as well as it getting boring, so I wanted to change things up. I tried a bunch of different things but never really went anywhere with it. | |
Breath of the Wild 2 | |
Around halfway through 2019, the trailer for the sequel to Breath of the Wild dropped. From this, I bounded off moving to a more theory/speculation form of content, similar to my original content but of a higher quality. | |
I started this off with a collab video with Infin. |
2020 | Start of the Year |
I continued into 2020 making the same content, during this time I released probably my favourite video from that time, about ancient energy. | |
COVID-19 | |
Covid hit, and much like for everyone else, it hit hard. I suddenly had infinite free time, which is a very weird position to be in, and ultimately left me doing nothing. Combine this with personal issues at the time, and video production came to a halt. |
2021 | An Attempted Return |
Come the start of 2021 and I was wanting to come back to YouTube, but I felt like my old content had limited me to just Zelda, and wanted change. | |
So, I began work on creating a new brand for my Channel, designed to be unrelated to any game, and let me cover anything I wanted. | |
This went on until July, during which I made a trial video to test out the new ideas, which I am really happy with to this day (a rarity). | |
However, in the end, nothing came of it and I still left not actually getting into making anything. |
2022 | The Return |
Having been further thinking about it, I came to a new conclusion. It wasn’t Zelda that was limiting me, it was just the idea of any set standard at all, including the whole new brand I tried designing in 2021. | |
With this realisation in mind, we come to the present, me writing this. I’m now ready to make videos again, with the plan to just do whatever I want and not let anything restrict that. I’ve been making this website precisely to help with that, as another creative outlet for myself with no restrictions. |
