REPort: First Look at LUIGI'S MANSION!
🕑 Added 2019-10-07 08:25:22 +0000 UTCHeyJ guys! Sorry for going a spell without an update. We have some edited footage to share from LUIGI'S MANSION: THE MUSICAL, though you'll notice the sound is entirely unfinished at the moment. >_<
We also wanted to touch on some possible adjustments to Patreon heading your way in a few months -- namely, narrowing our tiers down a bit, making a lower-tier alternative for fans of the RE trading cards, eliminating backlog instrumentals as the collections become easier to obtain, dropping private video messages, and tightening how many name credits appear at the end of musicals. Our goal isn't to dig at our loyalest fans, but to streamline this platform as best we can to give YOU a place to support the channel from behind the scenes and give US as much time and attention as directed toward the projects you're helping produce. :)
To that end, we're mentioning changes now so you have time to discuss it openly with us, and possibly adjust or cancel your pledges if desired. Thanks for being part of our work!
Beard Salute!

If trading cards are made more available, then it's possible we could start a trading page for fans to exchange them. ;) Imagine how many duplicate songs you could trade other Encounterers if we had a system in place like that for music! (and if you, uh, didn't have pretty much everything already...) Good to know, though, that songs themselves may still hold some value. We'd love to have control over iTunes vouchers or something so that Patrons can use a code each month to redeem a song of their choice, but we're pretty limited by our distributor right now. :( We'll definitely look for more options like that, though!

Ah, 15 minute long REport - that explains why this one actually had editing and not a straight upload! (yes, I did notice the quick cuts :P ). I saw the Game Boy color in the musical preview, and it made me grin. Regarding Patreon tier changes - I've definitely been getting duplicates of instrumentals for a while now. What I personally would like to get would be the older musicals themselves, so I have the actual mp3 of it (not just streamed through Spotify etc). I use Google Play Music for my listening device, as all of the mp3s on my computer have been uploaded there and put into playlists. I hesitate to use streaming of music that isn't mine, because I like having control over my playlists. It seems rather counter-intuitive for a streaming site to be able to let you create a playlist of x-number of songs that you don't own, for free. At that point, why even bother buying the album? Therefore, I associate streaming sites with "radio" - you give it a starting point of some songs and artists, and it fills out the rest of it with similar stuff. Maybe I'm wrong, and Spotify does let you stream an entire album for free (with a couple of ads). I'm more familiar with Pandora (which I've only used occasionally). All that said - I'm kind of excited about the possibility of getting the trading cards, except that I'm a completionist and it will forever irk me that I won't be able to "collect 'em all". Backlog perk?
