Two Hellblade videos about immersion
Added 2018-06-17 11:57:44 +0000 UTCNot public yet. Two versions of the same video, watch this one if you've played the game (contains spoilers), and this one if you haven't. Subtitles are not done, yet, I'll do them tomorrow. Sorry.
Need some feedback before they go properly live, so after you've watched tell me:
1. I'm thinking of changing the lead from the lack of a healthbar to the "Look around you" teaching of the controls. Which one did you find more engaging?
2. Did you have any audio issues, such as not being able to understand what I'm saying?
Thanks, hope you liked the video.

2018-06-17 14:48:45 +0000 UTCI rarely enjoy it when video essays go "here's something for you to notice, now did you notice it?", mostly because I'm dumb and never do. In this case, with the video's opening, I'd like to think you gave the viewer enough chances to in fact get the pattern. Though it's hard for me to say since I knew from this post what I was supposed to be looking for anyway. Anyway, I think the order works great like this. Putting the point that you *aren't* supposed to get on your own deeper in the video works better IMO. Audio-wise, I'm wearing headphones but still didn't hear much over the battle sounds in the bit with the "You might need headphones" title. But then, that's kind of the game's fault, not yours. The one thing I didn't like about this video was the short bit where you started whispering. It feels too much like a superfluous and sorta disrespectful joke to me.
