Happier Friends?: Day 1

I realised last night that I constantly upset people. I started talking to a newish friend, Amy, a lot. My other friends began to feel left out. So, I started streaming daily again to make these other friends happy. The problem with doing that is that Amy no longer feels wanted. When I climbed into bed last night, I thought, "What if I vanish for a few days? Will people be happier that I'm not there to upset them?". I think that these people will be better off without me.

I read on Steam that a new Jackbox game set is coming out on the 13th of October, 2015, so that should be a day when I should return. All my regular viewers could get fun out of new games rather than the same four games. Let's see if my friends feel better without me around to make them feel unwanted.

I've been playing a few offline games on Steam today. I'll see how many I can complete over the next few days since I haven't played any single-player games I bought over the past few months. It's something a couple of people I have added as friends on Steam have complained about: that I have so many games but only play the same 4-5 on my Twitch stream. One reason is that I don't think many people would want to hang around and watch me playing games where they can't get involved. Also, I can't reduce the screen size with a few of them, such as Ghosts of Maple Creek. The problem is that I can't read what anyone is saying in the Twitch stream chat. So, any messages that people may be aiming at me won't receive an answer since I can't read what was said.

One series of offline games that I badly need to complete is Life Is Strange. I haven't played them for a long while, so I have yet to see the latest episode of that game. It's about time that I play through it and see what happened to the characters after Episode 3.
