Iron Man // Factorio: The Ultimate DeathWorld Challenge #9 (early access)
🕑 Added 2022-07-08 07:00:04 +0000 UTC"I brew some tea, get some snacks and enjoy it for the next 20-30 minutes. Having something for just 10-ish is too short, the tea would not even get cold enough for it to drink!"
Igor's comment first sounded like just a casual point to me, but it has kept "brewing" in the back of my mind, and it actually does make a lot of sense, as these videos are not meant as "background videos" but something you'd want so settle in and get comfortable for. So, as with the most popular consensus, I will try for longer episodes from now on, though I probably can't go as far as 25-30 minutes (yet)*, as I don't want to start skipping weeks. Perhaps later in the series as there will be less cutthroat decisions to be made, so less "difficult" explaining to be done, I can more easily extend the episode duration.
Anyway, enjoy this one!

PS (yet)*: The increase in pledges since the start of this series has been insane, I still cannot quite wrap my mind about it especially since I'm not a "broad" channel. We're definitely now out of the "just coffee tips" territory, and into the realm of setting aside money to invest in a proper gaming/recording pc setup. (I've tried going 60fps, but with my current setup it's not doable, and I'm still a little scared to try livestreaming on this setup too). Together with the ad revenue from youtube, I'm hoping to get a proper setup this autumn, and we'll see, if it seems viable I WILL reduce my dayime job hours in order to work more on videos and maybe occasionally streaming (I work a flexible job anyway, so the risk of that is a little lower than with a fixed hours contract). Ok, enough rambling for now.

Ya, I usually run yootoob on 720p, because who gives a short, but for your videos, I explicitly go fullscreen 1080. And lean forward, finger on the pause button to check details.

The Mario coin SFX was *chefs kiss*. Best of luck on the iron road!

The savegame folder has been updated with 10 saves from this playthrough! But of course, no spoilers please!

Are the saves up for this series? I'd love to try my own escape now that short-term defense is automated.

I have covid and have been in quarantine, these episodes have come in clutch, I love your content. Thanks!
A real good bøy
Really enjoyed this one and also agree on the "getting comfy" vibe of slightly longer videos. These 18 mins seemed very well structured and a satisfying amount of video if one can say that

Another fantastic episode. I totally agree with your thought about these videos being the 'sit down and pay attention' type - I look forward to the new episode all week!
