Dark Souls LP Cancellation and Why:
Spoiler
Ok, so, here's the deal: I am going to end my Dark Souls LP early. Looking at the numbers, it's pretty clear I could find a game people would enjoy watching me play much much more. I'm not giving up on the game, I just want to finish it on my own time, and I don't think enough people want to see me constantly failing and getting nothing done to justify putting up videos of it. I'm sorry to the people who were somehow enjoying that LP, and to those who were helping me in the other thread: I am definitely not done there and your help was greatly appreciated and will definitely still be needed in the future.
Things to Consider when Voting:
Spoiler
Now, the basic goal of any video is to bring in new viewers while satisfying the ones you have (love you guys!), and Dark Souls seems to be doing neither. My Starsector videos, while not getting amazing view counts, are still the best gauge of what my audience wants to see. So I'm leaning heavily towards more spacey-ish-like games. There is a problem with that though, and it's that I don't necessarily want to tie myself to those kinds of games even though I love them, just as I don't want to have to make Starsector videos forever. Another thing to keep in mind is what I could run well with recording software, although that's an easy problem to catch early.
So, here in lies the purpose of this thread/poll. I would greatly appreciate your guyseseses input on what games you'd like to see me play. I need your help. I'm going to put up as many games as I own in the poll that I think could be made into a good LP, but feel free to suggest/discuss other games here as well (I'm avoiding multiplayer only games and random scenario type games in my choices, and I'll have notes about the game in () in the poll). If you want to see all my games then you should add me on Steam, I'm Axiege there as well. Remember, the best LP would be one you guys wanted to keep watching, but (sorry) more importantly would bring in new viewers. Because I'll definitely end up playing multiple of these games in the future, I think 5 votes per person will serve us better in determining what I should play in the long run as well. Thank you all for your time and help, your input is all very important and helpful, you guys are awesome ;D
Oh, and any games you want to see that I have in a series we should discuss whether to do them together or not (IE: Batman Arkham Asylum and then City).

Rambling Notes in No Particular Order of Varying (Non)Importance:

Holy crap, this is turning out to be a long list, you can see why I might be indecisive ??? You should let me know you're adding me in this thread or in a private message. Argh! So many games I have that I haven't played yet! I don't know what to upload in Dark Souls' place, it would pain me to just do all Starsector but I may have to! I don't want to end up making myself hate the game, and I never want my success as a youtuber to be strictly tied to it XP I have been working on this forum post for like an hour now!
OKAY! IMPORTANT POST HERE!
Recently, I have been working quite hard on making my channel look more professional and clean, and I would really like your opinions on my work. There will be many pictures ahead, so I will liberally employ spoiler tags.
Banners:
I made two, and I'm pretty set on the first one, but I'll show you the second one anyway.

I have a few variations (I won't bother you with all of them now), and some I like better than this one, but for now I feel only this one is meeting my self-imposed quality requirement.

Thanks for taking a look through these, and I'm looking forward to any feedback you could give me here or on my channel (some of these are currently in use). Thanks again!
Definitely not more Amnesia. Yes, I heard you, I am a baby. Wah wah. Maybe I do something silly in KSP (by the way, the new RAPIER engine makes SSTOs depressingly easy!) because silly things in KSP is a thing I can do. Actually suggestions here would be amazing! Do that, please?
You did not read that one ^ :(
Oh, I did read it. Your torment just happens to be amusing!!
AND MORE SPOILERS
and NO Amnesia! :(
You will soon forget that sentiment!

Do you mean to say that I will have amnesia about Amnesia?
Merry Christmas!
