Preview: Eric as Dr. Casper Darling
So for the upcoming video on Control (2019) I cosplayed as one of my favourite characters from it, Dr. Casper Darling, and since I needed to export the shots for that early in the process I thought I may as well provide them as a preview for patrons. Enjoy!

What if I told you about an organisation whose behaviour is clandestine and secretive, whose rituals are obscure and ceremonial, and whose reach is far and wide? This organisation has ties to other clandestine organisations, such as the Freemasons, and uses its power and corruption to let its members get away with crimes freely. The members of this organisation go unquestioned and unimpeded as they enter homes, seize property, harass individuals and even kill.
It’s cops, I’m talking...

Immersion, or What Do Games Owe Us?
Joseph Anderson’s Plague Tale: Innocence analysis starts with examples about how the scripting of the mechanics of a game world can spoil immersion a little. In the video, Joseph’s examples are a hole in the wall that Witch-Man Geralt from The Witch-Man should be able to fit through, but can’t, and invisible walls in Resident Evil 2, which the zombies can’t cross, that the game needs to give y...

Loneliness In Games
There's a long black segment at the end due to an export accident, which is annoying, but hopefully YouTube's online editor should fix it, so don't worry about it if you notice it.

Everyone hated No Man’s Sky. It’s a canonical fact of video games of the 2010s. Everyone hated it. The game was going to be an exciting and visionary new development for video games as a whole, with a quintillion different possible planets that the player can travel to, procedurally generated with procedurally generated animals and procedurally generated plants, resources, maps, artefacts, locations, environments and on and on so no player would ever see the same pla...

You Are Literally A Metaphor
A little mini-essay and love letter to the pieces of media that are too simple to make good analytical content but start a lot of people off on their media analysis journeys.
2020-02-05 10:56:14 +0000 UTC View PostCatherine: Psycho // Sexual
Catherine is about how men should focus on self improvement and their own choices and agency, and how being forced into a system of competition where they tear each other down instead of building each other up is an awful nightmare and also kind of women’s fault if you think about it.
The original 2011 game Catherine is about Vincent and his girlfriend Katherine with a K - overbearing dominant, career minded, controlling girlfriend whose hobbies include ...

I recently played Donut County, in which the player uses an app to send out a sinkhole which, bit by bit, consumes everything in your world. It consumes food, sport, leisure, your free time, your friends, local businesses - and the more it consumes, the bigger and hungrier it gets. And it doesn’t matter what the things were on the outside - how important or significant or beloved they were - because inside the hole everything i...

Rough Cut Patreon Preview: I Stayed Up Late Watching A Bunch Of Cronenberg Movies
This is the Rough Cut Patreon Preview. It doesn't have any of the fiction scenes, it's missing some B-Roll, and generally I still have some work to do with the edit before the finished version will be ready.

Hey everyone,
You may or may not know, but I am going through quite a tough time at the moment financially and in terms of housing security. Patreon has reached a point where it's paying my rent and bills, but my rent is about to go up 50%, so I'm going to go back from slightly comfortable to barely surviving.
It is primarily because of that, that when I got an offer for a sponsorship for this video, I took it. The money will make a huge difference to my ability to survive this perio...
I stayed up late watching a bunch of David Cronenberg movies
This will by my first video using the “18+” feature, because YouTube doesn’t let you rate your video as like a PG13 or whatever, but this video is definitely not for children. This essay is about famous body horror director David Cronenberg, so it’s going to contain lots of gore and horror, so if you are squeamish please look away, mum this means you.
So this essay will just be a look at the filmography of David Cronenberg. There won’t be any talking about fascis...

2020 Updates
Hey everyone, and welcome to our new friends!
I just wanted to give you all an update and a look forward to what'll be happening in 2020. I already have my video schedule for the first few months of the year figured out, and as general topics don't spoil too much I thought it couldn't hurt to let you know what's coming up.
In January I'll be looking at the filmography of David Cronenberg. This video will likely be VERY gory, so I'll have to restrict it to 18+, which will ser...

Objectivity (Mini-essay)
In the 1978 film Superman: The Movie by Richard Donner, almost nobody flies. Lois Lane, Jimmy Olson, Lex Luthor, Perry White and a whole host of other characters do not fly. For the first act of the film, nobody flies at all, not even on Krypton, the planet Superman is from. Then, in the second act, something absolutely shocking happens. Superman, having learned about the full extent of his powers, lifts off the ground and flies.
This is, overwhelmingly, not remembered as poor wri...
House Always Wins: Imperialism in Fallout New Vegas
So I released a video a little bit ago about sexuality in Fallout New Vegas, and recently Obsidian, the creators of New Vegas, released a new game, that's COMPLETELY PACKED with LGBT representation! Naturally I could see there was only one thing to do! Make another video about Fallout New Vegas! And make it a political analysis of imperialism! Who's hyped?
