You know how sometimes you do something and immediately afterwards you look at the fruits of your labours and think "yeah, I'm really pleased with that". That was me with this video on 198X, which I recorded almost immediately after writing and publishing the article on it today.
I hadn't really heard of 198X prior to this weekend, when my brother mentioned it to me and we sat and played it through together. It left a real impression on me immediately, so I played it through again today, and its impact hadn't diminished at all. In fact, having had some time to reflect on the things I'd seen and experienced in the game, I think it might have been more effective as a piece of art.
Anyway. I knew I wanted to write about it, and I knew I wanted to make a video on it. So I did. And I'm very happy with the result — particularly the video. I'm not sure what it is; I think I'm just quite satisfied with my delivery in this one, and think it fits well with the tone of what I'm talking about and the themes of the game in question.
198X isn't going to be for everyone, but it's a game that ended up being quite special to me, so I'm glad the work I produced relating to it is something I'm very satisfied and happy with. I hope you enjoy it.
Unrelated: $5+ Patrons, I owe you a wallpaper, I know; it's coming soon! I just haven't had time to put one together as yet.
