  • So this has been true of YouTube Red since the beginning. It’s one if the reasons I got it. But they use watch time as the way to divide your money out. It actually makes it extremely unfair split for people that make great but short content. It’s also why longer content became more popular around that time and those 24/7 streams run like that.

    Also why creators started doing channels of just padded run time content of like building legos and eating things. It’s to secure better and funding.

    The current setup is pretty busted and feels like the wheels are coming off again.

    This is a game that isn’t here for the game play. I think if you are paying at all attention to the boring dystopia, or climate collapse communities then this will hit in a way that is hard to define.

    Its a golf game. Simple, could be played on a phone really, but you have to have the sound on for this one.
    You are a member of the elite refugees who have fled to Mars and only return back to Earth to use the husk of a planet for a round of golf. And your companion is a lone radio broadcast from Mars of what they have left, which is stories and the rare music that was saved.

    The combination of overwhelmingly good world building and consistent vibe even down to the level names and journal entries hits like a train and made me cry at least a couple times.
    It made me feel nostalgiac for a world that has not yet come to pass and is a great on sale pick.

    I know you said less than 1,000 reviews but this is at 1,500 so I think it just squeaks by.

    This game for lack of a better description, adorable and over too soon.

    Like a mashup of pikmim, Spyro 2, and Tony Hawk Pro Skater. It’s got lots of fun platforming and new puzzle mechanics in an ever adding open world that is a true joy to traverse and cute silly little side plots that make for rather grand set pieces when it all comes together. I got 100% in 12 hours but also collect-a-thons are my jam and I was plowing through the game with grin on my face for everything but the platinum time trials.
