      @@SeriousTrivia Hey, I know this probably isn't the place to ask but have you done any videos relating to the unique units/faction units of TW: Three Kingdoms? I'd love to know if the units have any historical significance or acclaim to them. Thanks for your content, I love listening to your lore series whenever I play TW:3K. I feel like it always makes my playthroughs richer.

      @@wes7484 there are only a few that’s actually historical. I don’t have a focused video discussing them but I have touched on all of them pretty much as I played each let’s play. It does give me a great video idea so maybe in the future

    Sorry if I can't get a membership st.
    As you pointed out, I'm part of the gang who lives in a country who can't really pay. Even if I could afford it being a student ,as an iranian there is no paying option for me😅
    But I just wanted to let you know that your channel is by far my most watched on RUclips. Your content specialy the let's talk lore series are what I look up to everyday. And hearing that despite having a job u still put in the hard work for this channel really inspires me.
    I've even started learning manderian as a hobby after how much I got into Chinese history😅
    Thank you for sharing your knowledge with your audience and caring for the content you put out.

    I certainly come here for the history. While I know the broad strokes of Romance OT3K through gaming and shows, I've never managed to find a channel to cover it in detail, much less cover the Records of the Three Kingdoms in a very entertaining way. I like the other games coverage too, though I don't watch all of it since there are some games that don't interest me. I'll certainly enjoy stuff beyond 3K.

  • @RewanzDaNinja

    And frankly speaking, imho you deserve all the recognition of the Total War world for keeping the Total War Three Kingdom content up. That game is still a gem worth talking about, even with all the issues, problems, etc... Learning more about the period is a good bonus for me too.

    Respect the honesty. Love your 3K playthroughs following history. Got big into romance and records after dynasty warriors 1 and 3 and read the novels, watched all sorts of videos and that slapper of a series. Please keep up the content, I really liked the Kong Rong approach to play differently. It was very refreshing.

    Really enjoy ur videos on 3K and Lore. Not many people discussing the history of China. I love my history and became fascinated with China after visiting Suzhou and Shanghai in 2008. Suzhou in particular was amazing, the old town fortifications and the gardens but only since 3K became aware of this period. Picked up a few centuries worth of coinage as a souvenir. Thank you for ur content.

    Hey - I noticed you mentioned you work in finance. Not sure if this applies to you/your firm, but you might have to declare this income you get as outside business/investing activities (or something to that effect). basically any income not derived from your firm, may need to be disclosed to the firm for regulatory purposes. This is a separate thing from the IRS. Recommend checking with your HR group.

      @@SeriousTrivia Yea, maybe I wasn't clear but what I am talking about is **NOT** related to taxes. I mean, the employing firm may or may not require you to disclose outside of the firm income and outside the firm business activities (which RUclips income may fall under). Absolutely nothing to do with taxes. It may be firm policy/regulation, depending on the firm. Just letting you know b/c I am well aware of that policy haha.

These days, content creators have resorted to ad reads for additional income, and this is annoying because it circumvents my avoidance efforts, but it is what it is. Then, along come memberships. I feel like it's just another squeeze for even more money by the creators i thought i wanted to watch. If i find content worth my money/support, I'll go to patreon if i just feel absolutely inclined.
