I'm happy with them and do find them useful. It is good that you combine commentary with game visuals in your Youtube version (which is the version I watch). If you're finding it a strain to keep up with once per week, then you could reduce the frequency - In that regard, the ball is in your court. Once a week does seem a good time frame though.

Oh don't worry, it's not too much trouble. Just wanting to know how much interest there is, as it usually has very little in the way of comments :)

Always good content in a nice small package. What is going on with the audio though? Very low volume this time and strange compression artifacts. Like you are pushing too strong mic pop filtering + compression or something.

You must be doing something right then ;)

But yeah, I agree with dpanter, the volume was a bit low this time.

On the video and the ogg/mp3 or just one of them?

Could you give me any timestamps? I've gone over with both speakers and headphones and to me, they all sound really clear so I'm a little confused :(

Youtube. You can hear a good example right in the first words, "Welcome to the..."

I often think of Marques Brownlee vids as reference points for excellent volume levels.

If you play ep 12, then 13 at the same audio level you should really hear the difference.

It's not the biggest issue in the world but it was just so noticeable compared to other YT videos I watch.
The MP3 files are the same btw.

Whelp, you're right. I can only imagine what happened there, really odd. Must have been a mess-up with the final audio file used, possibly used the pre-LUFS adjusted one. Ooops. Will aim to improve for next time, apologies.
