The Plan for 2017

Hello patrons and prospective patrons!

Once again, I'd like to start with, once again, a hearty thank you to those who have generously contributed to the MoeGamer project over the course of the last year. I've been delighted to see people supporting my work both financially and with social shares, and I hope that will continue in 2017.

Speaking of 2017, the plan is to continue largely as I have done last year, with a single Cover Game each month — starting with Gust's Nights of Azure this month — punctuated by additional articles as and when I can fit them in.

These additional articles will often be one-shot looks at games that I want to fit in between the Cover Game features, but starting this month I'm also beginning a new "Essentials" series. This focuses on a single underappreciated system (initially the Wii U) and highlights the unique experiences you can have on that system and not anywhere else — or, in the case of games that have subsequently become multiplatform, why the underappreciated system's version is the most interesting way to explore it.

I'm going to make one big change, which is to incorporate more frequent updates on this Patreon page. Specifically, I'll be sharing the introduction to each article on MoeGamer here on Patreon, with a link to read the full article on MoeGamer itself. This provides another means for people to discover my articles, plus some more regular posts here on Patreon itself.

You can help, too! Follow @MoeGamer on Twitter and like or retweet posts you find particularly enjoyable. Share MoeGamer's articles on social media such as your own Facebook, Twitter and Reddit accounts. Tell your game-loving family and friends about MoeGamer. And feel good about supporting long-form, in-depth explorations of underappreciated video games in an age of increasing attention deficit disorder!
