DaThings

ICYMI I'm making a YTP of Arzette: The Jewel of Faramore that can be modded into the game itself as individually-pooped cutscenes. I'd been chipping away at it between other projects over the last few months, but it's become evident that this isn't a "chip away at it" kind of undertaking. So I've made it my main focus right now.

The bad news is that it's a lot more demanding than any YTP project I've yet taken on so it'll still be a hot minute before it's complete. Before August is the plan, but I'm not gonna rush it. Since it's my main focus there won't likely be any other YTPs uploaded in the meantime unless I get divinely inspired. Plus I've gotten some unfortunate family news that has further slowed me down.

The good news is that it's coming together really well and so far stands to be comparable to the unedited game cutscenes in terms of total runtime. So when it's finished it'll likely be a 20-40 minute megapoop basically. I know a long YTP means nothing if it ain't Good so I'm putting some extra love into making sure it doesn't get stale!

Some of my initial ambitions for the project turned out to be a teensy-bit more than I could handle so it has been scaled back some. For example, I was going to make mashups with all of the in-game music that you could seamlessly swap-in. Ultimately I figured that was too distracting to the gameplay and also a lot more effort than I'd initially thought. I might post the ones I finished as bonuses somewhere eventually.

Whether you plan on experiencing the Arzette project as a game mod, or just by watching the YTP'd cutscene compilation here on YouTube, I hope you're looking forward to it!

Thanks <3
