Hey Patrons,
We start another year of Patron shows with an update on what we're filming and publishing in January & February, the story of what happened when I went to film last month (spoilers; it wasn't awesome), our trip to LA next week, the effect of turning on some ads, why we now have thousands of video game tapes in our possession and what we plan to do with them.

That preservation work is amazing! Good thing you moved to the US :D
Matt Nelson
Can't wait to see what you do with the tapes :)

I'm really happy with the noclip crew finding and trusting their own voice in covering the games industry and its games. But of course I'm wondering how this changes the idea and work relationship of the "Patreon Production Team"; voting for the greatest hits was something that acctually took place and worked out quite well. This does not mean I'm against these changes, but maybe we find another type of creative contribution - putting all that swarm intelligence to use. PS Saving the tapes is so awesome! I'm very glad being part of your preservation efforts. It's destiny!

Awesome! Wonderful news all around. Glad you are doing what you love to do.

The tapes sound awesome btw! Great resource for Greatest Hits perhaps as well?

I have YouTube Premium cause I hate adds! 😅 If you let us know on which docs you turn on adds I can give those a rewatch! 😉

What happened in Vegas stays in Vegas (until the tape is digitised).

Bioware are in Canada and that was 2021 :D
Diego Sarmentero
Mass Effect! :D I'm so in for that one!

Yea no worries - so when we originally started Noclip (and for the first 5+ years) we talked about not having ads as a big part of the pitch. Basically to insulate us from the need to get clickbaity etc. I think over the past 5 years we've realized we're not really playing that game and as the video library continues to accrue views we're leaving some money on the table. So that's the reason I'm going into detail on it.

OMG the tapes!!!

Can't wait to get a glimpse at what's on those tapes. Best Christmas ever!

I believe I'm out of the loop here, but what would be the reason not to turn on monetisation for all content on the noclip channels? I think the average youtube consumer has a positive understanding that the ads they get served help the creators they watch. I believe people are more supportive of monetisation now and are happy creators are paid for their work.

Damn, good on you to take all those tapes! Monumental task to digitize them but I think it'll be worth it.

Without sounding like a broken record, please keep the podcast going and ideally in the format it’s now in. It’s my favourite podcast now, hands down. Also loving the NoClip Crew channel, it’s been a great addition! Keep up the great work guys
