Bit of a confession, but there are some clips in this video (typically no longer than a second or two) that are recorded from gameplay footage on YouTube of various games. I didn't think to document these at the time to give proper credit, I really should have, but by the time I remembered to do so, I was having a really difficult time finding lots of the exact videos over again (again, due to their short length.)
Apologies for this. I know this is bad video essay form and it's a mistake I'll strive to not make again. In the meantime, if anyone recognizes any clips and can tell me their sources, I'll add them here.
Thank you for understanding.
