Goodbye, Isinona

[Futuristic Kung Fu]

Isinona, after releasing a final video, announced yesterday that they would stop making regular videos, for lack of time. They may, however, still release special videos, albeit much less often.
Goodbye, Isinona. We will all miss you?
P.S. Who else is going to do an Isinona marathon?

Yeah, its sad to see such an amazing pilot leave behind the videos, so sad. But I understand it, its hard to juggle life around with other things

Yes, but sometimes it's hard not to be selfish...

Yes, but sometimes it's hard not to be selfish...

Your point being ...?

Watched it last night. I didn't realise it was their last. I just assumed it was a ''here's to a great year!''

However, as somebody who also haphazardly creates Youtube content, yes it does eat up time which is why I don't do it more often either. More power to Isinona and I look forward to seeing*if* they produce any more content. If not then that is fine

I would selfishness prefer that they continue making videos, regardless of time constraints.

I'll pour a 40oz on the curb for Isinona. They are an amazing pilot.

If sometimes rather stupid, luckily for us.

I wonder... Was it lack of time in general or was it the mindset of 'making a video' killing their joy of playing the game itself?

It's very easy to understand both situations.

Anyway, good luck out there CMDR Isinona. Here's to hoping 'specials' will be more frequent than they sound.

And this right after DravenDarken as well...

As far as I can work out from the YT comments, Isinona will continue playing, just not making the, frankly superb, videos. So I may yet meet them in space somewhere! All I want's a screenie with them in it, so I can scream like a teenage girl at a Bieber concert. And yes, if it wasn't painfully obvoius, I'm a massive fanboy (Of Isinona, not that Bieber chipmunk. )

isinonas videos have been always inspiring, i wonder who will step in their shoes!

Indeed. He has this rare talent to create awesome, immersive stories around seemingly small things. Making YT videos can be very time consuming (I wonder how ObsidianAnt manages to be so productive), so Isinona's decision to step down doesn't come as surprise.

I am both saddened by the reduction in content and excited for the specials. Even my non-Ed playing friends have watched and enjoyed his/her content. Good Luck to you, Isinona - don't make us wait too long!

 

[Futuristic Kung Fu]

Well, I waited 6 months for Dreadp1r4te.

Well, I was going to say DravenDarken as his vids are fantastic - but I just read he's stopping due to the state of the Mac client.
Come on FD, pull your finger out!!! Your free advertising is drying up...

To be fair, it is a lot of work, especially if it's a solo gig. A well edited 20 minute video can easily take a good 12+ hours of work. It's definitely a labor of love.

 

[Cmdr Eagleboy]

Considering quality of his videos, no wonder he can't make them as frequently as we want to see them. Still, I will wait for next drop even if it will take several months to pop up

p.s. I would suggest ED marketing and community team to look into posibility to make "make believe" series of playing ED with him before he departs. Tutorials are fine, but they don't get you in the mood, such videos does. His videos are cool, but he clearly concentrates on stuff he likes, where if paid he might cover bigger idea and those videos could be edited by ED to enagage players who "don't know what to do".

I just hope that he will continue to play the game. A lot of folks that have done streams and vids have stopped because they lost interest in the game itself and moved on.

I understand the busy-ness of life...am having a hard time finding my way into the game....but a lot of the time the media makers decide it is not worth doing the marketing anymore.

In either case I only wish the best for Isinona! Good luck!

He confirmed on YT that he was still playing ED.
