Hob Critique - It's Like Zelda - Early Viewing
Added 2017-11-08 12:00:47 +0000 UTCAs always, please do not share the link. This video should remain unlisted until some time on the 9th of November. Probably around 11 AM EST. Same time as the stream, I think. So that means about 28 hours from now.

It's still processing and I haven't watched it back on YouTube yet. So if there are any issues with it I'm sorry. I'll fix them after I get some sleep.
I'm exhausted from crunching to finish this so I don't have much to say. I enjoyed Hob more my second time through. Maybe some of you who watched the stream will find the video more interesting. It wasn't a popular game. It didn't sell well.
I tried to recap less of the topic in this video. Let me know how you liked that. I think it ends a bit too abruptly but I'm so far gone on this that I can't judge it.
Mario Odyssey is next.

Oh, right! One thing I forgot to mention when the script was posted - when I talked to some of the developers at Day of the Devs a few years ago, they mentioned that they were adapting the engine used for Torchlight for this game. I'd imagine having to contort parts of the engine to work as an adventure game may have led to taking more time than they wanted on some parts of the game. Some stuff (attack canceling comes to mind) wouldn't have been a priority in Torchlight so it would have taken more work to implement exactly how they wanted.
