For the longest time, I’ve meant to create a show where I look very in-depth at individual Star Trek episodes. I’ve tried several different approaches in the past that didn’t work or didn’t make it out of the planning stage and I’ve now decided on a dedicated YouTube show. For this, I have created a new YouTube channel called Star Dregs, which can be reached via stardregs.com.

The plan for this show is that I will look at all Star Trek episodes in series order (TOS, TNG, DS9, VOY and ENT, for starters). Well, or as far as I get before I die of old age. In the first episode, I look at the originally unaired pilot for Star Trek – The Original Series called “The Cage”:

Today, I tried streaming my daily NaNoWriMo effort for the first time. It worked amazingly well! I had no idea it would motivate me that much. Thanks, Halefa, for giving me the idea to try this!

I took part in the beta weekend for Icarus and streamed my gameplay of it yesterday and today. I’m planning to do the same for the next two of those beta weekends, as I’m currently writing a review of the game and might as well. If you’ve missed the streams and want to watch the first ten hours of me figuring out its mechanics, check out these three recordings on YouTube:

This week, I finally picked up streaming games again. I started by getting back to The Witcher 2, which was actually a lot of fun, especially considering how long I hadn’t played the game and that I stopped right after starting it. Despite not knowing any of the combat controls anymore, the story hooked me and pulled me right back in. And the graphics are just such an unbelievable improvement on the first game!

I also picked up Snowrunner again on Saturday after a similarly long hiatus. I fell right back into loving that game, though, and it ended up being a very chill weekend stream with some nice discussions about weddings and such with chat. I’m looking forward to doing more game streams soon!
