Overread wrote: I think a bit part of it is how youtube itself works. It requires content creators to jump through hoops and produce more hours of video work than major TV shows have to do for a weekly slot.
The whole system is built on tiny gains through mass media creation and the result is a system that generates VAST amounts of content at the cost of burning out the creators.
Throw on the fact that its not just content but certain kinds and presented in certain ways and that that system often favours one very specific niche and you've got not just burnout but burnout where you aren't even burning out on what you want (or what the poeple want) but what the algorithm wants.
Plus given how many people I've seen around complaining not just about what its doing to creators but how useless search and algorithms are being at finding content and presenting it - I get a strong feeling its burning both ends - creators and fans - at the same time.
IDK if yall know about Nebula. but i had a friend who wanted to look into posting mini paintinting tutorials there.
They where not really interested in that kinda stuff sadly.

Peachy picked an odd day to launch his own paint range...

Semi-related question - is this just on YouTube at the moment?
Rob Symes, a.k.a. "The Honest Wargamer". Louise's other half. Not sure why he's a downside particularly. I think it is just Youtube at the moment, but they're planning to make it available through podcast channels as well.

Who is Rob, and why is he a downside?

Rob (AKA The Honest Wargamer) is a former Warhammer TV presenter / GW staffer. He started the whole "slapchop" craze. I have no idea, personally, why there is any negative opinion towards him, but then again I may have missed something. I've always found him to be a decent chap and his videos are generally interesting (and Rogue Hobbies operates out of his studio).

I watched a lot of his stuff and it can be a struggle at times. He's smart, he has a lot of good ideas about Warhammer and his analysis of rules and gameplay is generally good but he is very dogmatic, he rarely listens to dissenting opinions.
He hates GW which is understandable as he clearly had a bad experience there but he's made a career from covering their products. His default stance is to be negative and critical.
Some people prefer this kind of coverage but to me it's a bit much. If I'm watching AoS content, I much prefer someone like HeyWoah who has a much more relaxed and balanced take on AoS.
To be fair to him Rob does seem to know this about himself and his YouTube videos are much more balanced than his twitch ones.

Seems like Colourforge is making signature series on Kickstarter with Peach, Louise and some other content creators. Not sure when though. He just announced it yesterday.
