I was thinking about making a video about this, but I'm just gonna talk about it here. I have some health issues that I haven't talked about often, but they impact me every day. Autoimmune disorders (celiac & sjogrens) and IBS. It sucks. I manage the best I can, but sometimes things flare up and it can be hard to get out of bed.
For the last month or so, I've been in a perpetual flareup. It's been brutal. I don't sleep much, I'm in pain and nauseous every day, overwhelming brain fog, etc etc etc. I'm usually in bed for around 12 hours a day, sometimes more, because I literally do not have the energy to stay up.
I eat healthy. I keep up on my vitamins. I stay active. None of that fixes the issues, though. I'm not the type to resign myself to being miserable, so I decided to actively figure out a solution. Medications, foods, supplements, whatever. And I think they finally got me on one that's going to help! Getting on it has had some brutal side effects, but I can feel my body stabilizing day by day. I'm exhausted, but I can see a light at the end of the tunnel. With some luck, in a couple weeks I'll be a properly functional human for the first time since I was a kid.
With that said. I keep getting comments asking about future projects. First off, my incredible editor is traveling the world right now, so I'm on my own until September. Second, I'm putting in as many hours as I can, but my body literally will not keep up with my ambitions right now. So please be patient. I'm really hoping I can be even better than my previous 'normal' in the near future, but I just need to take it day by day right now.
Currently I'm working on my Genshin 7.0 vid. After that will be a WuWa vid sometime after Jingran's banner starts (I am SO excited for him). I'm actively recording 100 days of Cyberpunk 2077 right now and having a blast, and I'm starting up recording a Pokemon challenge that I've been recording on and off since 2022 with hopes of having it out by the end of the year as well. Lot to look forward to. Hope you're all doing well, thank you for your patience, see you soon :)
thank you so much. I don't even have the words to express how much I appreciate the support you've all given me in reaching for my dreams. we'll celebrate properly soon <3
Tonight’s the big night. ZZZ 3.0 prep followed by the Cyberpunk Edgerunners x WuWa collab. I’m staying up late to do pulls + story, story vod will be up right after on @RealChikenClips with an edited video up in a few days.
I hope all Lucy wanters become Lucy havers and I will see you live, tonight, on twitch.tv/Chiken - be there or miss out on certified exclusive Bubby content!
I played through Denia’s story on @RealChikenClips if anyone’s interested! It was incredible. Like. So good. And won’t be a part of the next WuWa vid on this channel. That channel will be the home of full story reacts & content that won’t fit on this channel for whatever reason.
Next vid will be my journey to top 1% Skirk, then the WuWa Cyberpunk collab, then ZZZ 3.0. A LOT of fun stuff coming in the near future 😄 Bubby unrelated but hopefully appreciated!
Thank you for all the support on 100 Days of WuWa! I can’t stress enough how much we appreciate it and can’t wait to continue the series long into the future!!
Current plans, for those interested- I’m going to (try to) get a top 1% Skirk (among other things) for the next Genshin vid, playing through the Edgerunners content we get in the next WuWa update, and looking forward to ZZZ 3.0 for the next ZZZ vid.
Lots of streaming and story reacts going up on twitch and the second channel, check it if that’s more your speed @RealChikenClips . BIG CHIKEN SUMMER pt 2 coming soon 🔥 here are my children btw
Hey, so what if… I uploaded five hours of wuthering waves content chronicling my first 100 days of playing the game, tomorrow? You in? You want that in your sub feed? Tomorrow sometime? Yes?
NTE has been a LOT of fun. We immediately got started with the second video after finishing the first one and have put a lot of hours into it. Unfortunately, it’s come out that they lied about their usage of genAI and as I’ve played through the game it’s left a very sour taste in my mouth.
They just got back from the golden week holiday, so I’m hoping they acknowledge and commit to not using it again. If they do continue using it, or don’t respond to community complaints about it, then my ‘7 Days of NTE’ video will be my last on the game. We still think it’s a great video and will be a fun one for you guys to watch, and potentially punctuate the series, worst case. And the game is very fun! But I can’t continue to support anything or anyone that uses genAI, personally. As a lifelong creative, I believe the humanity in art is the most important part of it. GenAI spits in the face of every creator out there. For a game to use that is indefensible, let alone a multi million dollar production. Hire artists! If I can afford it, you can too!
Unrelated: Soup was found inside a shark’s mouth earlier. Still breathing, thankfully. Dangerous game she’s playing. Love that little daredevil.
UPDATE: Devs listened. Removing all AI assets from the game. Said our feedback matters to them. Feels good, man.
My new channel is @RealChikenClips! Will be a mix of everything I don't want to upload here - story playthroughs, stream highlights, games that just don't fit on here, and more! Streams will be started back up next week if all goes according to plan. Gonna get caught up on some story, some exploration, maybe even start a new game. Can't wait to hang out with you guys live and have a place for extra stuff that just doesn't have a place on this channel <3
I’m gonna start streaming more often, and it will only be on the purple site, pinned below. Probably starting this week sometime. A mix of the games I cover here, reacting to news of those games, and playing other games that I want to play.
A lot of the things we do on stream will end up highlighted on a second channel that I’m going to start soon, so keep an eye out :)

A lot coming soon! Sandrone vid, secret vid, WuWa 3.5, ZZZ 3.1, and starting a massive three month journey that you won’t see until October.
PS: there’s a massive hint in this Bubby pic as to what the secret vid will be about. I can’t wait for you to see what I’ve been working on!

I feel like I have to address this.
