Hey everyone, just a quick address about the radio silence over the past week or so:
I mentioned this in a video or two, but for anyone who didn't see, I just moved from New Jersey to Massachusetts over the weekend, and started a new career this week! So far everything's been going great for me personally, but I needed to take the time away from content to get settled in my new home and ease into the new job.
As I also mentioned in my video where I announced I was taking a break, my passion for making DBS related videos has dwindled, and honestly, even with my considerable time away, that passion hasn't really come back to me like I was hoping it would. To be quick but blunt, I think the root cause of that is frustration over how the game is being handled as of late. It was great to see Bandai announce DBS Masters product and tournaments throughout 2024, but I personally needed to hear more from them to rebuild my confidence in them, and they didn't deliver.
That's not to say I'm outright quitting DBS content; I honestly don't know what my future holds as it relates to DBS content. I may comeback if that passion reignites, and I'm still hoping it will. I can tell you that my priorities in life right now are the wellbeing of myself and those around me, my new career, and my comic book, New Mafia. I still whole-heartedly believe that DBS is the best designed card game to ever hit the market MECHANICALLY, and I'm actually going to DBS locals tonight. The game is still a part of my life, and I'm extremely grateful for everything that's come from it. But I don't know that I can create a job out of it right now because of the time commitment, and the considerable lack of return on that time commitment.
What I can say for now, is that I think I'll create DBS videos when I find something actually interesting to talk about. In my free time, of which there's pretty little right now, I've been dabbling in Lorcana and Star Wars Unlimited. Maybe those are the future of the channel. I really don't know. This week is really all about getting settled in my new home and job, but I wanted to write to you all and let you know this because you've been on this journey with me for 5+ years now, and I want you to know that I greatly appreciate all of you. This isn't goodbye, it's see ya soon. Till then!
