change is bad; at least, this change is

Last night I discovered that Anil and Mike streaming separately--which I had assumed to be a consequence of COVID-19--actually predates the pandemic. It was a way to do two streams weekly instead of one.*

I am, to put it mildly, disappointed.

It also feels like a rare instance of Rusty Quill misjudging its audience. The target audience for RQS, it seems to me, isn't people who are strongly interested in video games. They're already watching a zillion streams with, frankly, more skillful players. The audience is people who are neutral to curious about video games, but who really like other Rusty Quill stuff and enjoy virtually hanging out with Anil and Mike and watching them have fun together.

In other words, me. Please cater more to me!


(*That's what Anil said, anyway. Given recent developments, I hope it wasn't really that Mike said one too many clueless things and Anil noped out.)

That would be really nice! I usually bounce after the opening if they're doing a shoot 'em up. Like, I know they're trying to showcase a bunch of different game types but ugh, I hate those. (she says, having gleefully consumed Jonny do nothing but kill monsters for hours).
