There's a subtle tragedy to a photographer who can't move on from something their lost. When you take a picture of something, you can preserve it. A captured instant, catalyst of a memory immortalizing a brief beat in time. Suddenly, one day, pictures and the memories they bring are taunting. A reminder that something is gone and can't be regained. I like the idea that this finally got flipped again by the end. Living on to preserve the memory of a lost loved one rather than be haunted by it. Carrying the story of their life with you like a picture Or a tattoo.
There's something about FF3 that hits different. Im not scared by any of the games, especially the more anime-y recent entries. But the sections in her home always get me. Something about being trapped in what should be a safe personal space knowing there are invasive beings seeping in really fucks with me - its great
There's a subtly I just love about how the ghost invasions get that I just hadn't seen elsewhere. There's so many of them too, the one in the dark room fucked me up massively. Wonderfully unnerving game.
This was so delicate and vulnerable, truly beyond moving; I adored the format and analysis of this particular video. This is truly a beautiful body of work. I adore you Cullen.
Thank you, genuinely! Always some worries doing a vid like this for those exact reason, but this style of video has become my favorite way to express myself creatively. Hope to keep making them!
@@culIen 3 is my personal favorite, but 2 is a very close second. Haven't touched 4 since the original fan translation, but I'm glad that game's more widely available now
@earthbound9999 I thought about making a video on 2, but specifically the funny wii port that only got a British localization. Just need to finish the ps2 version first!
love your "vibes" reviews On an unrelated note, your Ys reviews recently got me into the franchise, started playing in the story order. Currently halfway through Felghana and man I gotta say the Napish engine is one of my favourites of all time.
@krispy_kornflake hoping the next one will be less heavy! Thank you so much! I need to get back to Ys VI, it's my blind spot for the series unfortunately lol but I love felghana!
@AnonymusAxolotl the ties to the first two might be a bit confusing at first, but there's enough intrigue with Rei that you should have no issue! Game is sick as fuck!
@@culIen Thanks! I tried posting a Spotify link to the song I heard it in but my comment poofed out of existence. If you're interested, it's GUNCON by ALEX. It's definitely sampling the game track. Keep making sickass vids, man 💪

Having watched this video and the SH4 video in the span of 2 days, I can say that you are very good at this!
This might genuinely be one of my favorite videos of yours. I genuinely love these games, and I'm gald you're talking about them here.
I really want to talk about 2! And I love 4, I need to play more! These games rule so much aaaa

Not sure who Alex is, but the exact song is the save room theme from resident evil dead aim if you were curious!
