#GTA6 is now releasing November 19, 2026.

I feel like we all knew this was going to happen. Sucks, but should certainly make next holiday season very interesting.

Also gives more potential for a simultaneous release across console and PC, though unlikely. Take Two like to double-dip.

Grand Theft Auto VI is Now Set to Launch November 19, 2026 - Rockstar Games

Hi everyone, Grand Theft Auto VI will now release on Thursday, November 19, 2026. We are sorry for adding additional time to what we realize has been a long wait, but these extra months will allow us...

I'm seeing what happens when the colorful border isn't there.

I like it as a "branding" thing per-series, but I'd be lying if I said I didn't think it looked like a bit too much, and kind of messy, when on the channel's videos tab, and when the progress bar is across the bottom of a thumbnail.

Running some A/B tests on YouTube again, so if you notice some thumbnails and titles changing back and forth over the next few days, that'll be why! :)

ConflictNerd @conflictnerd.com · 7d

Problem solved. Red now.

The only colour I've not used in the last 13+ years is green so I guess that's what we can expect the next time I realise I've balls'd up the branding.

ConflictNerd @conflictnerd.com · 26d

... I was today years old when I learned that the colors I've been using on YouTube for the past while are shocking close to Tinder's branding...

Got a couple more videos coming at you later today, but quite happy with the output over the past week!

I'm thinking that, for the next little while, Saturdays and Sundays will have no videos - so you can catch up! 😉

It'll also give me time to go through your comments, and prep for the week ahead!

Whatever's going on, I still don't want to focus on numbers.

My priority is getting things back onto a regular schedule. We can work on numbers and stats afterwards.

That said, I'm curious... Have my videos been hitting your sub feeds these last few days?

ConflictNerd @conflictnerd.com · 13d

3. The choice of games hasn't been stellar.

Transport Fever 2 should have wrapped up a month ago at least.

Jurassic World is a bit more niche (on my channel) than I thought.

Manor Lords though... at least initial numbers... I'm surprised by... I'm late to the recent update, but not that late.

ConflictNerd @conflictnerd.com · 13d

2. YouTube doesn't know what to do with my channel because I'm be on and off so much these past few months.

There's not a lot to say here if it is the reason, other than to stick with things and rebuild the channel again. This will hopefully get things back into the "algorithm."

ConflictNerd @conflictnerd.com · 13d

1. It's entirely possible y'all have just stopped watching across the board, which is fine. Tastes change, and that's cool. There's a lot of channels I'm subscribed to but don't watch anymore. This drop-off is kind of sudden though, which makes me think it might be...

ConflictNerd @conflictnerd.com · 13d

Man... I don't like to talk about or focus on numbers too much but... the numbers on the recent handful of videos have been some of the worst I've seen on the channel in a decade. There's a potential handful of reasons, but it's always a nightmare to work out what the "problem" is.

ConflictNerd @conflictnerd.com · 13d

Though maybe a few streams between now and then could be fun?

I do need to relearn Cities: Skylines 2, after all... 🤔

ConflictNerd @conflictnerd.com · 13d

Also, be sure to check out all the coverage of the new @citiesskylines.paradoxinteractive.com DLC that dropped across a bunch of channels today!

I'll be jumping into B&P in a couple of weeks, once I get Manor Lords and Town to City out of my system!

Working through my list o' games, one at a time!

It's been forever since we last played #ManorLords, so let's jump back in and get to work on a new city! :)

I love when the Giant's Causeway - somewhere I've been hundreds of times - shows up in video games! Very excited to drive around Ireland in ETS2 soon! :)

SCS Software @scssoft.com · 13d

Doesn't the Isle of Ireland look stunning? 😍

We're so excited to bring this beautiful part of the world to Euro Truck Simulator 2 🇮🇪🚛

Telling someone, even a few years ago, that #Halo was coming to #PlayStation would have had you laughed out of the room. This is absolutely wild, and really makes me curious about the future, or lackthereof, of #Xbox.

Regardless, this looks gorgeous and I'm excited to revisit Halo again!

Master Chief comes to PlayStation.

Halo: Campaign Evolved launches on PS5 next year, rebuilt and modernized with 2-player local co-op and 4-player online co-op: play.st/4oAYnr5

With many Sims creators looking to both leave the EA Creator Network and diversify their portfolios to move away from The Sims in the wake of the EA buyout, now would be the perfect time for #ParadoxInteractive to have another stab at Life By You.

We need more cosy life simulators in the world.

Also, sort of related to this, my GoXLR finally crapped out after seven years of use.

It's been replaced with a Rodecaster Pro II which I'm still learning to use, but love. This is to say that my microphone EQ and settings might sound a little different over the next few videos while I dial it in!

Manor Lords, Town to City, Anno 117, and Cities: Skylines II comin' up soon though!
