Completely Unexpected

Over the years I have had a number of ideas I thought were good enough to do. Some of these have been story ideas, some project ideas, and of course my Body on Games idea. One of the more recent ideas I had, which actually came out of The Body on Games, was to start capturing my review playthroughs when I can. Thus far I have done with for Agony (on the TBOG YouTube channel), F1 2018, Star Control: Origins, and am working on Assassin's Creed Origins. (Yeah, AC Origins launched a year ago so I don't mind sharing I'm working on a review for it.) Well today I saw there was a comment for the last part of the Star Control: Origins playthrough, and the person said they not only did watch them all, but will also be picking up the game.
I was definitely surprised that someone watched the playthrough, but then I looked to the channel's stats and was shocked. It looks like this is all owed to Star Control: Origins, but the views for the past four weeks are is at 2514 with 58,751 minutes of watch time... The videos only went public on September 20 though, so that is from just 10 days...
How?! How has this happened? Yes, I'm questioning how I have achieved this measure of success because, very seriously, I have not had such success for years. The closest would have been about six years ago when my book, Sci-FU, reached #1 in Technothrillers on Amazon over just five days. It was free for those five days though, so like this, I am not going to monetarily benefit from it. (None of my YouTube channels qualify for monetization, and even if this one, GuestJimOCC, were to now, I don't think I will hit the button on it. Maybe I would set up something else, but I don't want to put ads on these videos.)
On the bright side, this does appear to be validation for my idea of capturing and sharing my review playthroughs. Hopefully it will happen again, but I will likely not be surprised if it does not. Like I said, success and I tend not to meet, so this being a one-time fluke would fit with how the world treats me. If it is not a fluke though, then hopefully I can continue producing this content, but we'll see. I do have other projects and responsibilities.
