"I'm Back, Baby!"

Good news, everyone! Not only am I finding plenty of opportunities to make Futurama references, but I've also managed to finally make a triumphant return to YouTube content creation! Behold; the first of hopefully many chapters, in the tale of a young dunmer heroine, thrust into the harsh land of Skyrim, ready to embark upon a grand and fantastic adventure. I give you The Tale of Ilori Lyedrai!


This role-play/walk-through based Let's Play series features not just the incredible DLC content released by Bethesda, but it also includes some of the stellar work of many talented modders, quest writers, and texture authors, curated carefully from the Skyrim Nexus as well as the Steam Workshop. The complete list of mods, tweaks and third-party DLC is over 50 items long, so I won't hurt myself trying to list everything. I will mention, however, that my plans involve lots of questing, exploration, and a few hints and tips for tricky parts of the game. Currently, new episodes are scheduled to be released every Saturday.

For those of you who are more interested in blocks, building and other forms of mad science, rest assured that I do plan on eventually resume making content featuring Minecraft. Details, at this point, are slim, but I will mention that one of the most difficult choices I face is which modpack to feature. While I've been a fan of recent Feed the Beast packs, including the latest Direwolf20 pack, I have also be watching the work of the incomparable Bacon_Donut, and his game-play, featuring the Mad Pack. So, what better way than to let my (currently-miniscule) fanbase help me decide. Sound off in the comments with your vote for which Minecraft mod pack I should make a Let's Play featuring. If you have a suggestion, chime in! I'll consider all suggestions (within reason).

One final word to mention. In previous posts, I have lamented my rather aging PC. However, I was lucky enough to find that one of my current co-workers had a number of spare PC components that he was willing to part with (for a fair price, of course). Check it:

Board: Biostar P4M890-M7 PCI-E Socket LGA775
CPU: Intel Pentium D 945 @ 3.40GHz
RAM: 3.00GB Single-Channel DDR2 @ 267MHz
GPU: 1024MB ATI AMD Radeon HD 6870

Certainly a remarkable improvement over my previous PC specs. While I do have intentions of upgrading a few things. The board supports up to 4GB RAM, and I can upgrade the Pentium to a Core 2 Duo E6700, if I want. I'll consider my options, as time goes on. In the meantime, keep your eyes peeled for new videos to be uploaded on the schedule I mentioned above, as well as other special stuff I might toss in every so often.

Until next time, take care,
