[QUOTE="mamba, post: 8928524, member: 7034611"] that is why I said that this is you hedging your bets. Yes, your non-5e videos will probably not get as many views initially, but if you are afraid that your focus on 5e might kill you, then sticking to making 5e content only is not a smart move, even if your other videos have less viewers. I do not owe anyone to watch their videos if their content does not interest me (not even if it does...). I am not watching any of those guys you listed regularly (and that is an understatement, I have not watched most of them at all, and a few videos of two of them) and that will continue to be the case, regardless of what they do. I am more likely to watch you if you do not produce exclusively 5e content however at this point...
