It's beeen a long time since I tried this...

Both playing this game in general, AND... doing a guide for it.
As was suggested almost a decade ago, if I was having trouble making a guide for this website (which I absolutely did, due to RL complications I described in that thread), I could try using this new things called "Youtube" instead. Since that statement, Youtube has become... a bit bigger than I think anyone anticipated.
I was considering trying to finish what I started a decade ago, using Youtube as a format, in a... "semi-commentary campaign walkthrough and strategy guide" series.
However, as this would be a new things for me, I realize I have a lot to learn.
On you the Youtube side, I've got a friend who is going to introduce me to Adobe, OBS, Audacity, et. al.
On the game side... well, I haven't played since v2.1.
I already noticed, when trying the game again, that there is no longer a save option between campaign stages, which is... nothing I can't work around for a video series, but a bit weird IMO.
But that got me realizing that a lot may have changed, and the last thing I want to do is a strategic walkthrough without knowing if there are critical changes that could render my strategies and my walking-throughness ineffective.
So, I have two things I wish to proffer to this forum and the knowledgeable within:
A) What game-critical changes have occurred between 2.1 and the version I just grabbed, 3.4.1, that I need to know before spending weeks making videos on a dozen stages only to realize that they are all worthless?
and
B) Please do not expect me to do this rapidly. I realize the last time I said "don't worry, I'll get it done", my computer and all my work died in a shower of sparks around Gamma6, and I don't want to get anyone's hopes up... and also, even if I do manage this, it's is going to take me quite a while to pull off, due to me being a TubeNoob.
