I love stuff like this and Jjonak’s Zenytta. Fuck the meta, learn what works for you.

So this guy was training to be a nurse and dropped out to be a video game nurse? Huh.

I’d add two more. These don’t apply to everyone, but they apply to me.

I’ve been reading comics on and off for about 25+ years, and this is easily one of the more informative, succinct bits I’ve read about the actual work involved in writing them.

I’ve been to a couple of talks by Kyle Baker, and one of the things that has stuck with me is how simple things are just different visually,a nd how much of a shift it actually is. “He nods” was his example, and how just that note is hard to pull off (and ultimately there are probably better things to draw to…

Re: color. I, too, never used to understand just how important color was to the page until I came across some badly colored pages and it just ruined the artwork for me. But a great colorist can enhance the artwork and make it even better than it was — for example, Jordie Bellaire was the colorist for both Pretty…

Oh heck yeah. I entered the hallway and braced myself and then...hmm. I was even more on edge because between the new doggo hallway and that new door under the stairs in the main hall (with those moans and rattling chains coming out of the darkness!), pretty much everything I knew about the game was irrelevant.

Seriously! I love the music too. It ranks as one of my all-time favorite game soundtracks.

Few things have stuck with me more than the music from that game.

Ooh, when are you doing one on Earthbound? I don’t personally know of any other games that included a Scratch’n’Sniff card with it. As far as other games that included strategy guides, I seem to remember Phantasy Star II coming with a frickin’ enormous one that was almost impossible to play without (at the time when…

Your opening comment about only having the box to rely on reminds me of when I discovered the game Rygar at a store as a kid. I remember staring at the box. The back says “Join Forces With Rygar!” and “You and Rygar...”. I remember interpreting that as Rygar was a character in the game I had to find, recruit, and then…

I haven’t even watched the whole video yet, and I love this topic.

It was great how the REmake played with expectations of that hallway.

Terraria, Torchlight I & II, Shadowrun Hong Kong, Baldur’s Gate I & II, Salt and Sanctuary, Mark of the Ninja and many many more. Potato 4 life.
