same. I find it difficult to do exactly what theyre doing while staring at my screen sometimes.Or they're talking over a section and if you need to the information repeated you have to listen to them talk, again and again, and again. It's probably just a me issue, but I can't stand the sound of most people's voices on repeat. Just let me read the info and process it. --- PSN/GT: Harley2280 ... Copied to Clipboard!

Or they're talking over a section and if you need to the information repeated you have to listen to them talk, again and again, and again.You know, that's fair. I used to make a bunch of text guides until I moved over to Youtube for video guides. Despite my attempts to make stuff as coherent and easily searchable within those videos as I can, I can't really "fix" the fact that there's still a significant portion of people who retain information better just by reading it. Maybe I can make text versions of my video guides and submit them to StrategyWiki. That might be the best I can do. --- Game collection: http://www.backloggery.com/bakonbitz Gaming channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCwVQm69J7bGScbv3_50C0dA ... Copied to Clipboard!

Im gonna copy all of them and repost them after you delete them and take all the credit for them stop i am highly susceptible to flattery CyricZ posted... I'm not at that point. Yet. yea i feel that. honestly old guides are old and maybe i will just leave them up. i think some of the people in this topic, in one way or another, are kind of arguing for that. anyway im reasonable and can embrace ambiguity here's the thing tho, im not wrong about anything else i'll definitely not be contributing to the site, at least for the foreseeable future. that includes just sending less ad revenue their way in general. I was actually think about how I always wanted to write more FAQs, and how it would be good to keep this style of guide alive. anyway, i was writing guides for 3 games but im not gonna do that anymore. no point. Friday the 13th for NES was basically done. the other guides have bad information, but it's very technical and not objectively interesting. that guide has been unfinished for years--i think someone actually beat me to it and actually looked at the code...but there is the nagging suspicion that something's still missing. there's a lot of work that could be done on guides for that game. and other games. older guides just tell you how to beat the game, my guide was more like how to win 100% of the time and also do it really fast but not like speedrun fast. also i was gonna write a Valheim guide but whatever. sad stuff. the lumines plus tower method is safe for now. i wont delete my guides. --- --- ...

Steam guides have taken over the written guide landscape. I think it's basically just Neoseeker that could take the guides here. The majority of these games aren't on steam.
