enjoyed your views; wished the subtitles didn't show every UM and UH you made

[@EvilPenguinRPG]

Thank you for the input. Yeah, going forward I'll cut the automatic subtitles, which frankly saves me some time. 😂
Glad you like the channel

[@hellwindPL]

You are very good. But I cannot watch movies with popping up subtitles 😂

[@EvilPenguinRPG]

Thank you so much.
I'm a new channel, so I'm still trying to find my best practices. Next video I release will be WITHOUT subtitles and I'll see how it does.
Thanks for the advice and I'm glad you're enjoying the videos otherwise!

@EvilPenguinRPG no problem. Motivating sub here You go ;)

[@EvilPenguinRPG]

Thank you!

You didn't mention the male Dryads and Hags. Oh, and the completely binary succubus/incubus. It's like a Babylon Bee article got mixed in with the manuscript for this atrocity of a book.

[@EvilPenguinRPG]

Well, mainly I didn’t mention that bc it’s entirely not important. The beauty of a made up fantasy game is that if you think hags (a fictional creature) are only gendered female, you can make them female. No one is offended if you do and so you shouldn’t worry about what others do with made up monsters
