Okayyy so I had this whole huge ass idea for this GMV, but I've kinda fallen out of motivation for finishing it.
It was gonna basically be about how Kaidan doesn't want to disrupt the chain of command so he buries his feelings and Shepard begins to realize that due to her developing feeling for Kaidan, she has lost the ability to think objectively about her crew, putting missions in danger to save Kaidan, or all round just worrying about him more than other members of the crew.
BUt uhhhhh yeah, I began overthinking a lot about this edit and ended up not having fun whenever I opened the project file, and ended up forgetting about it for a good while, and now here we are. Another scap on the pile haha
Game: Mass Effect
Song: Hardest of Hearts - Florence + the Machine

Youre right about my father. The things he did are unforgivable. But I am trying to make up for his crimes. I wear this mask to help people.
Hey Julian! Happy Valentines day! I hope you like it!~ ❤️
It was so so hard to pick just one song from your playlist for this edit because you have such banger taste in music I had like 10 million ideas. I ultimately ended up with this one as I felt it fit Telltale Batman really well (especially the first one) and this was a really good excuse to edit with him for once because I love this game too!
For the edit I tried to showcase the conflict he feels between his memory of his parents and the reality of what they did and how he has to suffer through figuring it all out while also having to save the entirely of Gotham and having all that on his shoulders.
I had a lot of fun making this! I always struggle with trying to add storytelling to action/fast paced edits but this was a really fun challenge and I had a lot of fun with it!! I really hope you like the final product ❤️ I tried super hard to get all the scene selection as on point as I could within the time limit
(Sorry about there being a few QTEs in the edit, it was hard to find scenes with movements I wanted without the QTEs, so I had to leave some in)
Also, please image a bunch of really cool grain/noise effects over the top of this. For some reason (bit-rate reasons) YouTube really hated it and turned the edit into 240p doo doo when I posted it, so I had to remove almost all of them :((
