The place to read up on
all the stuff I plan on writing this month and what I´m cooking up for the near
future in general. As always, the schedule I talk about here is subject. Stuff
might take longer or things may happen in the gaming space that might take
priority.

March was a good month if you ask me. Post-wise, I did manage to write that review on Netflix’s adaptation of Avatar: The Last Airbender I talked about. That was a fun show to watch and review to write. Discussing the series with a friend and going back and forth on some points was very enjoyable and I’m quite happy with the result too. Reading that review again, I do wish I had made a clearer point about the spectacle over storytelling approach this adaptation takes but I’m not going to rewrite the review for that one oversight. I’ll just keep it in mind for season 2. Make a point of addressing it and see if that season improved on this or not.
Readership-wise, I didn’t look at the numbers much. Readership dropped by a lot this year. Since I do like the extra time my new schedule affords me I just stopped looking at the numbers daily and feel a pang of disappointment and focus more on just having fun. Last week though was good. I’m back to 200+ views a day and I even hit 750 one day. Crossing my fingers that April will follow suit but quality of quantity and having run remains my priority.
For the schedule, which you can see the dates of when you scroll down to the bottom of the page, we have one holdover of March. Uncharted: The Lost Legacy got pushed back for that Avatar review. It’ll now come out next Saturday and in a better state than it would’ve been had it gone live in April. That extra time I mentioned earlier? I used some of that to proofread my review of that game again and make some adjustments. It’s not that the original version was bad or anything put that extra round of proofreading to polish that review up more.
Following that we have 2 indie games. Severed and Fairune. Smaller, shorter games I played on my trusty old 3DS while I was chipping away at the beast of a game that is Octopath Traveller II. A bit of variety for both me and the review output. Perhaps not as compelling as seeing a known property such as Uncharted pop up in your feed but Severed especially deserves more eyes on it in my humble opinion.
I’m also pondering about writing another Netflix Avatar-related post. One about my prediction of how they’ll adapt book 2 into season 2. What they’ll keep, what they’ll cut, what they’ll condense and what they could add based on season 1. Please do let me know, in the comments or on Twitter, if that’s something you’re interested in.
So yeah, that's about it. I hope there's something here that interests you and be sure to keep checking back for any potential changes. And next month's schedule and updates of course, when the new month is close to rolling around.
As always, thank you for your continued support. I hope you'll enjoy what's coming up and by all means, let me know what you think in the comment section.
