Writing "Reviow" because I'm not allowed to write the word properly on here.

I mainly do game reviows and now that I have a good amount of subscribers and views, I'm on a lot of the websites to apply for keys and free copies.

My issue though is I'm struggling to figure out when to buy the games vs when they're available on these sites, as many of them seem to only pop up a week or two in advance, and sometimes keys aren't handed out until a week after launch, which, for a reviow channel, kind of defeats the urgency factor.

My big one right now is that 007 First Light is available to apply for on Keymailer, but won't release until the 27th, which is technically a day after you'd get it if you pre-order it and get the one-day early access. There are more examples, but that's where I'm at.

Anyone here have any insight on the matter? I know there probably isn't a set in stone answer, but I'd love to hear any thoughts!

After years of just getting emails, I just got an offer directly through YouTube Studio today, but I'm 99% sure it's a scam and borderline illegal.

I create gaming content, and the message I got referred to me as "content creator" and not my name or username, said they found me on Twitch (I don't stream on Twitch), that they loved my walkthrough on Crimson Desert (I don't do walkthroughs and don't even play Crimson Desert), and the website they want me to partner with is for purchasing in-game currency, lootboxes, character levels, etc, for a ton of games that would ban you if they confirmed you were using their service.

As far as I can see, there doesn't appear to be a way to report them from the page where I got the offer, but that doesn't mean it isn't hidden away somewhere.

Does anyone know if there's a proper way to report them?

I know there are 20+ hour videos on YouTube and guides, but a lot of them are fragmented and don't combine things together (individual guides for quests and separate ones for collectables, etc).

Does anyone happen to have a guide that combines everything? So I know to collect Item A and then talk to Person C and then fight Boss D, etc?

I tried uploading a reel last night but I wasn't able to pick a cover for some reason. The slider loaded, but when I moved my finger, it was only showing me two or three very blurry stills from the entire video.

I restarted my phone, logged in and out of Instagram, and tried other videos, and the problem wouldn't go away, and the same thing happened this morning too.

Anyone know what would be causing this, and how I can fix it?

I know that these two trophies are currently bugged for some people, but when are they supposed to pop within the game?

I'm near the end of my second playthrough and still haven't gotten them despite following a guide, but I don't want to do a full third playthrough if they're supposed to pop 20% through the game.

Does anyone have a list of the key clues for these two cases, or know which mission they're supposed to pop during if you manage to get everything?

I'm always looking for "unusual" recipes–I'm not good with the science of cooking, but I've never messed up a recipe thankfully.

I've made blueberry bread, pizza cupcakes, lime bars, etc, but I've been getting a weird craving for fruit-based pasta lately. Something about things like "raspberry pasta sauce" sounds really good to me at the moment, but I've been having a hard time finding similar recipes that aren't dessert-based. I've also made tons of lemon and lime-based pastas, so I'm trying to branch out from there.

Probably weird, but does anyone happen to have any good meal-time fruit-based pasta recipes?

Edit: Believe it or not, but I actually have tried tomato before. Who knew that it'd work so well with pasta!

I have one mission left in the game and three cards left that I need to buy ($3000).

Is there any way for me to make money before going into the final mission, am I able to play after the final mission and then buy them, or am I kinda screwed and have to replay the whole game just the get all of the cards in one go?
