Late lineal update and hey remember that time I joked about things always going wrong whenever I go on holidays
🕑 Added 2024-05-08 22:25:09 +0000 UTCTo my great surprise, things went wrong when I was supposed to go on Holidays.
So long story short something something Covid, something something New York trip cancelled. It's not been a happy week in the Blownapart household. But fuck it. What can you do.
So being at home for the week with nothing to do but be sick has at least meant I've busted my ass on the video. I'm happy to report the first hour is in the bag!
This video has some pretty significant differences between the Youtube and Patreon versions, and It's 100% a better version for you guys. There's an entire section that's about 5 minutes long, its probably my favourite part so far (as its the first capital S Serious part), and on Youtube, its effectively been ruined. Well maybe not ruined, but because it's 5 minutes of footage from one fight in particular, (I wont spoil which fight), no matter how I edited it on Youtube it just wouldn't pass copyright. I had to apply a filter to the entire section which while it actually looks kinda cool, just spoils it overall in my opinion.
I posted a screengrab of it on insta and as of yet no one has been able to identify the fight which should tell you just how much this filter has fucked up the segment lol:
I've gone balls out with the copyrighted music too, which means I've been able to put some tracks on there I could've never gotten away with on Youtube, which again just really, really elevates some sections in my opinion, and while the music on the YT versions is still good, its not my first choice. Overall there's more edits to the YT version that I'm really happy I didn't have to make for the Patreon version.
I think this one will probably wrap up in the next week or so, as I've arrived at a crossroads yet again where i can either:
Make good on the promise in the intro where i showed Enson, Mark Kerr, Fujita, Cro Cop, Noguiera and Fedor and actually cover all their lineal title reigns
Bail out now because its taken me 2 months to cover 4 of them and will likely take another 2 months if i want to cover everyone
(Though just to be clear, I actually forgot to put Randy in that intro, so the 4 people covered in this video so far are Randy, Enson, Kerr, and Fujita. I will probably update the intro before it goes live... probably)
What one hour of unrendered footage looks like
Oh also I'm planning on doing some discord server game nights soon, for Halo 3 and Helldivers 2, so If that sounds like a good time to any of you, head on over to the server if you havent already: https://discord.gg/JKfSqQ7V
Thats it for now, hopefully the next update will be the last one before going live!
Just bleed,
Nap

It's a true privilege to be able to see your vision unmolested. I'm sorry things are so rough for you with YouTube. As far as your crossroads, my take is the same as with every artist I Patreonize: do what you want to do and don't worry about any other noise. I'm sure I'll love whatever you turn out either way. In the mean time, please do take care of yourself. Making progress is always great, but make sure you're carving out enough time and care for you. COVID was a 13-week ride for me and while everyone's different, I'd encourage thinking of it as a marathon rather than a sprint. Take it easy, much love from here in Texas.
