We don't talk about thirdparty content a
0:01
lot on RPGbot. Not because I don't want
0:04
to. Like, I really want to. I would love
0:06
to be able to, but RPGbot isn't a
0:09
full-time thing for me. I have a day
0:11
job. I do this my spare time. So, I only
0:13
have so much time to spend on writing,
0:16
on podcasting, things like that. And I
0:19
can't always make time to do everything
0:20
that I want. Like the there's a
0:23
yearslong backlog of Dn D and Pathfinder
0:26
articles that I need to write. So, I
0:28
can't really justify covering a lot of
0:30
third-party content. In some ways, it is
0:32
kind of audience driven. Like, I try to
0:34
write what people want to see from
0:36
RPGbot. And more frequently, that means
0:40
first party content. Third party content
0:42
gets maybe maybe 5% as many views as
0:47
firstparty content, which is really hard
0:49
to justify. Unfortunately, I do
0:52
occasionally make exceptions if I get
0:54
like a ton of requests to cover a
0:56
specific piece of third party content or
0:59
if the creator themselves, if it's
1:01
someone that I know and they ask me
1:03
personally, like, "Yeah, I'll cover
1:04
that." I've covered content for
1:06
MonkeyDM. I've covered content for
1:08
Mageand Press. I've done a bunch of
1:10
stuff for Cobalt Press's content. Like,
1:13
I I know those folks. Those are creators
1:15
that I know and like and that I'm happy
1:17
to work with. Uh there's a couple other
1:19
folks that if they asked me to cover
1:22
their content, yeah, I would make some
1:24
time. Uh hey, Kibbles Tasty and Laser
1:26
Llama, if either of you guys ever want
1:28
to talk, like DM me, email me, whatever.
1:31
We'll I'll make time. But in general,
1:34
like I I really just don't have time to
1:36
cover as much third party content as I
1:38
would like. Every once in a while, I'll
1:40
do it just because it's fun for me, but
1:42
for the most part, like some kind of
1:44
stars have to align to make it happen.
