Hey everyone, I've made a video about The Order: 1886, and it'll be out at the end of the week! It's been copyright claimed because of the soundtrack so if it's swarming with ads feel free to do what you must, I don't make money off them either way.

I've fallen down the rabbit hole that is The Order: 1886, and after doing some research into the game I'm curious: was anyone hyped for it before it released? Or just very aware of it thanks to the aggressive marketing campaign?

I'm busy preparing this year's Halloween video, a big thing on dinosaur horror games, that is so big Premiere refuses to export it, even compiled from already exported chunks. I've had to bust out Wondershare Filmora to get the thing compiled and ready for upload. Frightening stuff indeed.

Playing Horizon: Zero Dawn and Horizon: Forbidden West and their DLCs back to back over several months was a very rewarding experience, it all flowed like one uninterrupted game, but wow, I don't think I could do it again, it's just too much.

The Ice Age movies existing in the Alien universe is like Breaking Bad existing in the Resident Evil universe, something about the combination is just viscerally upsetting.
