Direction of TYC - Possible Thoughts On Sponsorships, Review Samples & TGW

2015-09-24
so this is a little video I wanted to do for you guys where I'm talking about the direction of takia city and the input that you guys have on it and where we go from here ladies and gentlemen welcome back to check yes City this is brad coming back to you guys today with some gameplay commentary over a game called Wolfenstein the new order however this game won't be the main topic for today the main topic will be takia city and sponsorships now a while ago i did make a video where I was kind of against taking sponsorships as I believed they would affect my opinions and I do never want to be known as a shill right basically with my whole video and my whole channel in general is that it's always honest reviews and for what it's worth it is going to stay that way forever more I never want to be known as a shill and I just hate the thought of selling people garbage and then packaging it is something that's good i'm really against that and that's not going to change however when i made that video a while ago a lot of people suggested in the comments that i should be open to taking sponsorships as long as it doesn't affect my freedom of speech and this being my this being in mind or keeping this in mind I did decide that recently when a website gearbest calm reached out to me to review a smartphone or to review anything on their website I took it upon me to say that yes i will give your website some exposure and that will be in an upcoming review on the pretense that I review the phone for them and so this is a great opportunity for me to get products to review for you guys and since I haven't signed any agreements or any contracts or anything like that I can still give you guys the usual reviews that you used to and that's just completely honest reviews so I decided to take this stance and I decided to open up the channel a little bit more towards this and if you guys are honestly have anything against that or if you have any extra feedback I'd love to hear it in the comments below as ultimately I love your feedback and opinions and this is the reason why I do the videos that I do is just it's pretty much all for you guys and for educating myself as well so I love how the channels gone so far and i love the direction that it's going to take and the fact that has grown this fire has just been a shock to me I never thought when I did that first video years and years ago on a razer mouse that i would gain a following and i would be making videos to this day i never thought it was possible but as it takes it passion has brought me this far and passion will keep me going however that being said I do like to be rewarded for my time since making decent content does take a lot of time and so this is in this sense it's not a monetary incentive but I do get a free product in turn for exposing the retailer and the good thing about this is that the retailer is not the person making the product so the retailer will get some exposure for their website and that being said it was a pretty decent website they dummy the turnaround they've got me a product shipped internationally within five days so that was pretty good in itself and so I will be reviewing this smartphone in the next coming pal next coming week for you guys to stay tuned for that and it will be as usual just a completely open and honest review so that's just basically the main grid of this video I wanted to make sure that you guys didn't have anything against this and if you did I'd love to hear your thoughts and opinions and a lot of people as well have been telling me that I should start taking Takeo city oasis start approaching this channel more like a business which is a great thing to do and i will start treating this channel with more a lot more professionalism even though lately I feel that I have been treating this channel with a high degree of professionalism so that being said things are just going to continue the way they are except there will be some sort of a in unit inserts into the videos when that when it's called for so and another topic I wanted to touch on was review samples in general now there seems to be this stigma out there that a lot of people will just give products good reviews because they got these samples for free and now this might be the case for a lot of other check channels I'm not too sure on how they do that business but for me it's definitely not the case when I get sent a product I review it on its own merit and now in the past I have been sent product review samples and I given them bad or terrible reviews suffice to say the manufacturers never contacted me again but that's not my concern at the end of the day I sleep like a baby at night and nothing's gonna change in that regard I assure you that now another thing I did want to touch on to his tech gaming weekly with Joker man Joker we recently will actually you know prove what 15 weeks ago we decided to start doing a tech show for you guys called tech gaming weekly and now the reason for this is just a lot of people were requesting me to have a co-host for my regular Tech Talk series and when I collaborated with Joker we hit it off really well I mean both on cam and off cam we're both he's a great guy in person he's a friendly guy and one thing about him is he is very strong-minded and strong-willed and that's something that I respect about him even if we disagree on topics I respect him for being strong like that and that being said that's not going to change anything to do with tech yes city my channel is my channel and his channel is his channel and that's the way it's going to stay simply because that's just how it is I mean check gaming weekly is essentially an independent show that's not related to my channel or Joker's channel in that he's gonna start making me say this and this about a product or a vice versa so that's something with tech gave me weekly you guys don't have to worry about anything changing around here because I know there are a few of you guys who have pointed out that you don't like Joker and that's fine with me that's each to their own you guys are perfectly entitled to have that opinion that's something that I love about everyone being an individual so one thing I wanted to show you guys is that nothing's going to change with the actual channel that I'm running here so don't worry about that and yeah that's about all I wanted to touch on with you guys and that being said me and jerk will be keeping the tech gaming weekly show continuing as I believe we're just having a lot of fun I mean I honestly enjoy it even if I look don't all right look really tired or I don't look like I'm having fun I actually enjoy collaborating with Joker a lot and honestly we help each other a lot and thus far Joker's actually helped me a lot more than I've helped him for instance recently he just sent me a product that I was able to get for really cheap in the States he posted that over to me in Japan and he didn't charge anything for that as well as the fact that he also has recently given me a Windows 8.1 pro key for free as well so joke has done a lot of good by me and I mean at the end of the day everyone can have their opinions about him but I know that he's a good guy with a good heart and that's all that matters regardless and I honestly I know that his opinions aren't he's not a paid shill or anything like that he's not getting any donations or any paid money from Intel in video or AMD so don't worry about that he's a even if he may come across as bizzle that he is a honest tech reviewer like I am and so I will vouch for him in that regard and that about wraps it up for today guys so if you have any questions or comments about today's video then or about anything in general with tech es city then please drop a comment in the conversation below and I will get back to you as soon as I can and I will catch you guys in the next tech video very shortly he's out for now bye get what I use to record my youtube videos with
