New content schedule, new rewards, & weekend stream
🕑 Added 2018-05-02 22:22:02 +0000 UTC *Important notice about next Stream at the bottom of this post!*Hey there Patrons, and thanks for your time. I hope you're having a wonderful Wednesday, and apologies for neglecting the Patron stream the past two months. It's been a very tumultuous time for my work, but after some tricky ordeals and a great deal of planning, I'm excited to share some changes I'm making to my content, and your Patreon experience.
These changes are a new content schedule (with the addition of regular streaming), and a new Patreon reward scheme.
My goals with these changes are:
- To provide more content on a more consistent basis;
- To provide more value to your Patreon contributions;
- To diversify my income streams so that I can devote more time and effort towards Ultimate Skyrim and my video content.
Regarding the new content schedule: starting next Monday, each week will feature two alternating slots for LP content and one weekly stream.
- Monday: Main LP series
- Tuesday: "Alt" LP series / Twitch Stream @ 4:00pm PST
- Wednesday: Main LP series
- Thurdsay: Alt LP series
- Friday: Main LP series
- Saturday: Alt LP series / Dev Update (if applicable)
- Sunday: Stream VOD
(This schedule is experimental and subject to change, but I will notify you of any changes.)
This brings me to the Patron reward changes. Basically, the Kinsman tier ($1+) is getting a lot more utility, while the Shield-Siblings and higher retain access to the hefty stuff (UltSky Beta, giveaways, etc.)
Here is a comprehensive list of changes to the reward tiers:
- The monthly Patron stream will now be a Q&A / Development Stream, since Twitch's non-compete clause disallows me from any gaming streams outside Twitch.
I'm actually very excited about this, since it'll give me a chance to show you guys what happens behind the scenes, and I can focus more attention on your questions and the conversation. - These development streams will be open to all Patrons. Attendance for previous streams has been sporadic, and I think this will boost numbers and give me more questions to answer (and hopefully more info/utility for you guys).
- There will now be regular viewer polls for the Alt LP series, open to all Patrons. Historically I haven't had any "pollable" content, but now that the Alt series is a thing, I thought it a good opportunity to engage more with you guys, and offer additional utility for pledging.
Finally, I'm doing a final private Patron gameplay stream this Saturday, May 5th @ 12:00 PM. This will be the first ever stream open to all Patrons, so if you've never tuned in before, this would be a great chance to get to know everyone.
As always, thank you all for reading, and for your support. If you have any feedback on these changes, please feel free to share in the comments, and I will reply ASAP.
