Cool to know! I'm gonna find my way back there eventually. I would have put in a cavern with cliffs to funnel players. And had some aggressive Pals in the water behind ya for a few game days. Then stuck lore in as to them swarming around shipwrecks or something.

@AiosStarfire sure. And don't get me wrong, you always spawned in the castle ruins. But that rubble looking wall next to that first chest you grabbed in the ruins? That wall didn't used to be there. On the other side there's still the staircase connecting the areas, but they added that wall in between them. From there, there's a clear path all the way down to the beach from the cutscene. As lore goes, the tree mentioned in the opening cutscene has always been visible, but you can't get there. Nothing in this early access version leads to it or says anything more about it at all aside from a couple throw away lines from NPCs like "I wonder what's up with that big tree?" So what the opening says should be the end of the game literally doesn't exist yet.

I'll check them out! Thanks.^^ I'll see what I can tweak for the videos.

The bugs are a feature! heheh.. I'm just waiting for an upside-down horse like in Skyrim. I'll love every minute of it. ^^

I still try to avoid the walkthrough. At the end of it, I still have some unanswered questions about Cyclone.. but I'll mention that in a later video.

The lore is a lot more layered than I thought. It took me notebook pages to piece it together, and am still thinking about it days later. I'm really glad I got a chance to play this all the way through. And with an exception, I really liked the puzzles. Do you have a favourite puzzle from the game?

Sorry about that. I was hoping zip mode would kick-in, but I often clicked over the lightning bolt so there was a lot of screens in between destinations. If I find a game like this- with individual screens - I'll be sure to slow down. Also, a bit excited. Riven is one of my all time favorites.

Thanks for giving it a watch. The games always had a special charm when FMV was added. Though I'd say that Rand and Robyn Miller really made Myst and Riven something special.

​@@AiosStarfire It also really helps that the live action, from acting and writing to props to lighting and composition with the game environment, was executed with the level of skill and care necessary to come across as believable

Glad to hear it!

Eh, it's more for fun. I don't have time to do much else. Thanks for giving it a view though.

Thanks for making it! I love the world and the characters. Trying to add comments when they’re already making the same ones is a challenge, and I love that the characters have a similar view to my own. Playing on my own, I loved the kiosk as well. (Especially the part we haven’t or can’t see yet^^) World building information makes my day in games. And any comments related to Crispin are purely for entertainment’s sake - he’s got the little brother vibes; sometimes the brunt of jokes but never actually disliked. -no spoilers- but glad there’s a Crispin V.2.

@@AiosStarfire You're welcome although of course it was a team effort :) Yeah I found a similar difficulty doing the commentary honestly - there's really almost *too much* to talk about so I think it's best to just let the work speak for itself... It really helps having TH-camrs such as yourself do the hard work on the "back end" there though :D

Hope you had fun along the way. I wish they had done more with the Shivers universe. An adventure around the escaped Ixupi or something. Shivers 2 I've never played all the way through (little less than half way). It's down the list, but I will get to it eventually. ^^
