An Update and The Future

 

An Update and The Future 

Hey guys, Saul here, and this isn’t your traditional vs blog post. Unfortunately, this isn’t your next matchup that you guys have been waiting for. It’s been about half a year since we’ve been into the 2025 Saul VS Blog season and there’s been a noticeable difference in output. 

13 blogs in 2024, 6 blogs in 2025. Now, this isn’t inherently a bad thing, as it could just show that I've taken more time with the matchups that I've been doing. And considering I covered TMNT and KFP to the best of my ability, I can definitely see why the disparity in blog output time can be seen. But there’s been a different underlying issue that has been hard to talk about, but I don’t have anywhere else I can vocalise this. 

My muse in VS has been at an all-time low. It’s been from a bunch of different things that, again, I’ll try and vocalise. I think the main thing is my mental health and depression, about just how bad things got for me from May to August. I am coping better, for those who’re wondering. I lost a lot of my friends and my dog in a couple months from each other, which made my mental health kinda tumble, I guess. 

Of course, with my muse for making vs low, what’s going to happen to my blogs? Well, at the minute, I don’t know. Obviously I've enjoyed making these blogs and have had great fun on a bunch of projects, but it’s been difficult. Even getting people to try and join blogs is a struggle, one that I know most blog creators are having. People in this community aren’t super motivated to work on blogs nowadays, me included, and I believe that’s for a variety of reasons. Ones that I may touch on in the future. 

Basically, the future just is one big jumbled mess right now, and I don’t know if my enjoyment for VS will come back. I still have some duo blogs in the work that’ll come out, but yeah, it’s just kinda been one big struggle recently. I thought it was important for you guys to know what’s happening going forward.

Thanks for those who read my blogs and stuck with me through this time. If this is truly it, if I do truly stop, then thanks for all the good times. I’ll probably end up deleting this if we continue, but I didn’t want to leave you guys blank if I do disappear.
