Starting the blog up again. This Time I mean it.
A year or so ago when I posted that I was starting with Blog back up I really intended to actually write more but during the pandemic it seemed like a silly thing to do, to just write about games for fun so I never really did it. Now, though, it seems like it's still a really silly thing to do but also a lot of the projects that I'm working on and building towards could benefit from some context. Context that I've had a chance to sit down and think through and put down on paper in this particular way.
So now I'm actually starting off the blog again and it's going to be a lot more personal and a lot less reserved than it was before. I was being quite diplomatic about things a lot of the time previously because I wanted to get a job in a specific industry and now I kind of don't.
We'll see how it all goes but now I'm mostly focused on Community Management for Extra Life LA and Social Media management there as well. I don't need to be as diplomatic about the games I'm playing as I used to. I suppose the same goes for the video game industry in general because I can kind of play whatever I want and say whatever I want about it now.
When I was trying to be a critic I needed to make people feel like I was being fair and reasonable about things. Now that I'm more of a hobbyist and I'm involved in this situation as a less professional opinion holder I'm free to be that much less nice and less fair. I can kind of say whatever I want about things which is nice.
