“Game development is expensive and hard, surely you don’t just build a giant door for no reason, right?”<br><br>The Game Developer: “Hm, these wall textures don’t line up. Fuck it I’ll just put a door in front of it”

Rewatching this while the Nier community goes into a meltdown over the possibility of a church that's been hidden for 5 years. Talk about Deja Vu.

The part that hurts me with these stories is that there's usually a kernel of truth to the conspiracy - there <i>was</i> something there, some meaning <i>was</i> supposed to be there, it just didn't fit the god damn budget/schedule.<br>It gives an insight into an artistic vision that was not, and likely never will be, fully realised. It's like... staring at a wall of beautiful architecture while holding a sketch of the full building. The melancholy hits you like a truck.

Thinking upon how BluePoint left the sword as the "last big secret" in their remake, I'm reminded of the essence of the term 'Fan Service' in its most essential form: it was both a recognition of the fan's service, and a service to the fans that made it possible. I love that.

For real, how fucking good would it have been to get the Sword of Dormin, walk out of the shrine, and see a distant mountain move.

Hey Jacob, just wanted you to know that a spanish youtuber named "Jwulen" has plagiarized several parts of this video in his video about 30 details about SoTC. <br><br>Just wanted you to know about it since this is one of my favourite videos ever.
