I made a mistake lol. I don't think that trying to do two different series on Youtube was the right move for me, especially right now. My anxiety has been really bad the last month or so and I think I need to talk to my Dr about my medication and whether I need a higher dose. I should have just stuck to XC3 and left Dawntrail for myself because I am already feeling the start of burnout (something that happens a lot quicker for me when my anxiety is bad).
I may discontinue Dawntrail as a playthrough and just keep it for myself (though I might do a few videos discussing the story and such once I finish).
XC3 will continue as per usual, but I might back videos down to 3 times per week until my anxiety is better.
Also with my kids home from school for the summer, I really want to spend more time with them and I feel like I haven't been able to do that lately, so I might try and have a few more offline days so I can focus on family stuff!
I also think that trying to do more playthroughs wasn't the right idea for me (which I should have known but do I ever listen to myself? No.). Once XC3 & Future Redeemed finish I will be moving back to more reviews, story recaps, lists, previews etc for both RPGs and cozy games. That was always so much better for me anxiety and burnout-wise and honestly, I shouldn't have stopped them.
While I'm dealing with my burnout and anxiety, I might be a bit quiet on Discord and Youtube comments as well.
Sorry for changing things up so soon after starting my Dawntrail series, but I think I'd rather do this now than before I got too far into it.
Stay tuned for new stuff along with my XC3 playthrough, in the coming weeks!
