Quintet Documentary | Terranigma, Illusion of Gaia, ActRaiser, Soul Blazer & Granstream Saga Indigo Gaming 2023-01-05 | As sort of an "underdog Squaresoft," QUINTET would create some of the most fascinating and inspired RPGs to ever grace the Super Nintendo, and they had stiff competition! Adventures like ActRaiser, SoulBlazer, Illusion of Gaia, Robotrek and Terranigma live on in the hearts of their fans, well beyond their intended shelf life. I also delve into their later years, with The Granstream Saga, as well as their even more obscure titles that were only ever released in Japan. They went on to make games in the vein of The Legend of Zelda, Square Enix's beloved Final Fantasy and Secret of Mana, and other JRPG classics.Quintet was formed by Masaya Hashimoto and Tomoyoshi Miyazaki, Nihon Falcom veterans behind the Ys series. They often collaborated with composer legend Yuzo Koshiro, the man behind Streets of Rage's addictive soundtrack.Over the past year, I fell in love with the story and games of Quintet. I hope that after watching this video, you will too.SUPPORT THE CHANNELDonate on Patreon ► patreon.com/IndigoGaming…or SubscribeStar ► subscribestar.com/indigogamingOr get 100+ DRM-free games curated by me on GOG: https://indigogaming.link/#ActRaiser #IllusionOfGaia #Terranigma #JRPG #SNES #SoulBlazer-TABLE OF CONTENT0:00 Introduction2:15 Humble Beginnings & Nihon Falcom6:09 Ys I & II8:00 Ys III & Departure from Falcom9:01 Quintessential Quintet9:05 ActRaiser16:55 Soul Blazer26:38 ActRaiser 231:54 Illusion of Gaia41:46 Robotrek50:59 Terranigma1:10:27 The Rising Tide of Irrelevance1:11:49 The Granstream Saga1:19:49 Solo Crisis1:21:23 Code R1:22:30 Brightis1:25:04 Planet Laika1:28:26 End of an Era-CREDITSSpecial thanks to Lewis Hudson for his help in editing and visual effects:http://www.lewishudson.comyoutube.com/c/LHudsonVoiceover editing by Erik Peabody:vikingguitar.comThumbnail artwork illustrated by Ransom:twitter.com/ransomlivesartstation.com/ransomJapanese quote voiceover by Theo Akimaru:theovoice.comRobert Jerauld voiceover by Liam Jeffries:fiverr.com/liamjefferies-SPECIAL THANKS to these amazing resources:shmuplations.com/quintetterraearth.comthesupersnes.tv/compendiummobygames.comhttp://www.gaming.moetalking-time.net/index.php?threads/quintet-heaven-and-earth.1062Full list of additional footage or documentation sources available here:docs.google.com/document/d/1XmzP6fmra8b6qkkObJhSAn4O_bPyvTc5vsQ6vBQFqQc/edit?usp=sharing-MUSIC CREDITSOverClocked ReMix: Terranigma "Beginning of the Journey" by Fredrik Häthén feat. various artistsocremix.org/remix/OCR04011Music licensed through Epidemic Sound:epidemicsound.com/track/Sq6RaNkJ16epidemicsound.com/track/ANS2m7hqjiepidemicsound.com/track/oFrVMs9BLNepidemicsound.com/track/sERGwdIsMuepidemicsound.com/track/z31NeexfRBepidemicsound.com/track/QNRNzSXqVXepidemicsound.com/track/muiKv7ZgXXUnused music from Sorcerian by Yuzo Koshiroyoutube.com/watch?v=5DPVVasoppgOverClocked ReMix: Secret of Evermore "Everstreams Through Evermore" by Brink-of-Timeocremix.org/remix/OCR04296OverClocked ReMix: ActRaiser "Thy Followers" By Russell Coxocremix.org/remix/OCR00745OverClocked ReMix: Soul Blazer "Tears for a Moonlit Knight" by Israfelocremix.org/remix/OCR00587OverClocked ReMix: Soul Blazer "I'm the Soul Blazer" by HoboKa, Smooth4Lyfe, BrothaDomocremix.org/remix/OCR03890OverClocked ReMix: ActRaiser "Fill More Funk" by djpretzelocremix.org/remix/OCR00541Illusion Of Gaia & Soul Blazer remixes by Plasma3Music Remixesyoutube.com/watch?v=SXNIZ7_B8_Myoutube.com/watch?v=pdh16XIBmMgOverClocked ReMix: Illusion of Gaia "Will Is the Lord" by Scaredsimocremix.org/remix/OCR01708Illusion of Gaia arranged tracks by SourJovisyoutube.com/watch?v=RNWPlQNcJ0g&list=PLB8A54AC48D1A5475OverClocked ReMix: Terranigma "An American Expanse" ocremix.org/remix/OCR04013Paths Less Travelled: Terranigma - OverClocked Remix albumterranigma.ocremix.orgocremix.org/album/94/paths-less-travelled-terranigmaJean Of mArc feat.

Not Forgotten - Dark Sun: Shattered Lands & Wake of the Ravager | Mad Max Meets Dungeons & Dragons Indigo Gaming 2022-04-13 | Get the Dark Sun series, DRM-free, through my GOG affiliate link ► https://indigogaming.link/DarkSunLet's trek into the treacherous wasteland of Athas, evading the wicked grasp of Silt Horrors, the tyranny of Sorcerer-Kings and the highwaymen of the city-state of Tyr.Dark Sun takes place in a post-apocalyptic fantasy world that plays out like Mad Max meets Dungeons & Dragons, where water, flora, fauna and hard metals are precious and scarce. A sort of "medieval Fallout" with magic and psionic powers, Dark Sun is a memorable tabletop game setting that inspired two classic DOS RPGs that still hold up today, for those with the patience to see it through.Developed by Strategic Simulations, Inc. as their first great departure from the Gold Box RPGs that made them successful, Dark Sun lives in the memories of its fans, and hopefully this video will convince more players to give it a try.This video aims to also serve as a beginner's guide to help you through the tribulations of Athas, in your grim quest to save the world…or what's left of it!0:00 - Intro1:51 - Setting6:52 - Shattered Lands7:24 - Character Creation10:27 - Story11:07 - Gameplay13:08 - Character Swapping13:54 - Wake of the Ravager16:34 - Crimson Sands17:12 - How They Hold Up-SOURCESHistory of SSI Gamessites.google.com/site/ssihistory/Homemobygames.com/company/strategic-simulations-incDark Sun on MobyGames (art, references, etc.)mobygames.com/game/dark-sun-shattered-landsmobygames.com/game/dos/dark-sun-wake-of-the-ravagerDark Sun tabletop settinghttp://mythlands-erce.blogspot.com/2018/07/setting-review-iii-dark-sun.htmlBrom, artist:youtube.com/watch?v=WkU1ZRp2TVcDark Sun character creation/abilities:g4li.org/dark-sun-shattered-landshttp://crpgaddict.blogspot.com/2021/10/game-434-dark-sun-shattered-lands-1993.htmlhttp://lucasabandonware.free.fr/manuels/Dark%20Sun%20-%20Shattered%20Lands.pdfDark Sun Geopolitics:youtube.com/watch?v=u1zakoah4oEHQ Dark Sun map:dying-sands.obsidianportal.comDark Sun Online: Crimson Sands:myabandonware.com/game/ad-d-dark-sun-online-crimson-sands-arkgamasutra.com/view/feature/3235/postmortem_ssis_dark_sun_online_.php?print=1-MUSIC CREDITSMusic licensed through Envato Elements:Dark Thrilling BackgroundBarbariansWastelandMusic licensed through Epidemic Sound:Rune Dale - Desert MistDeskant - As the Rivers CollapseHeadlund - Misty LandHawea - ThirstDark Suns Wake of the Ravager soundtrack remastered:reverbnation.com/608582/album/105274-FOOTAGEAdditional Dark Sun Shattered Lands footage by raekuul:youtube.com/watch?v=fl6LNmiBA3c&list=PLZf9_6kXbV2MWEh-qZaQY4lg8POK_0Pei&index=1Additional Dark Sun: Wake of the Ravager gameplay by classiccola:youtube.com/watch?v=Hzq0G25DwWA&list=PLdNRmvfWSximMKe2SenlKGVcPE0UQBwHHDark Sun: Shattered Lands demo footage by Major Thriftwood:youtube.com/watch?v=JPpFGL_EencDark Sun Online: Crimson Sands trailer:youtube.com/watch?v=VrbKDMksNqQ&ab_channel=RonCalonjeSSI demo reel and Star Command gameplay by barbarianbros:youtube.com/watch?v=WOeCYdLpySkyoutube.com/watch?v=kAFO4RSg_8UComputer Bismarck gameplay by OldManBishop:youtube.com/watch?v=Caj2IzSnEOs&ab_channel=OldManBishopPool of Radiance & Eye of the Beholder gameplay by MajorThriftwood:youtube.com/watch?v=2IIkBgKBoFcyoutube.com/watch?v=ekLJ7kseBVkBaldur's Gate gameplay by Da' Vane:youtube.com/watch?v=ffr3Q8iCNNY#DarkSun #MadMax #DungeonsAndDragons-PATREON ► patreon.com/IndigoGamingSUBSCRIBESTAR ► subscribestar.com/indigogamingKO-FI ► ko-fi.com/indigogamingTWITTER ► twitter.com/TheIndigoGamingLIVESTREAMS ► youtube.com/c/IndigoGamingArchiveTWITCH ► http://www.twitch.tv/indigogamingchannelDISCORD ► discord.gg/j98gDah

How did Skyrim affect the industry, how did its console-focused streamlining of the series reflect on other RPG series, such as Dragon Age, The Witcher and other RPG series that seemed to follow in the footsteps of this massive financial success?We’ll be discussing The Elder Scrolls evolution, as well as many related RPGs. Was this a coordinated effort to expand their audiences into the mainstream, or was this trend more of a “stand-alone complex,” where various developers and publishers independently landed on similar game design conclusions?----------------PATREON ► patreon.com/IndigoGamingSUBSCRIBESTAR ► subscribestar.com/indigogamingKO-FI ► ko-fi.com/indigogamingTWITTER ► twitter.com/TheIndigoGamingLIVESTREAMS ► youtube.com/c/IndigoGamingArchiveTWITCH ► http://www.twitch.tv/indigogamingchannelDISCORD ► discord.gg/j98gDah

Learn about the second trilogy from cyberpunk author William Gibson: Virtual Light, Idoru and All Tomorrow's Parties, and discover the brilliant satire and criticism of modern America in Neal Stephenson's Snow Crash.Jack in to cyberspace with the origins of hacker culture, its impact on us during the advent of the internet, and how that informed our worldview of the information superhighway, and films such as The Net, Hackers and Johnny Mnemonic. What inspired us to invest so much into virtual reality, from the Virtual Boy, to injecting VR cameos into movies and shows like Serial Experiments Lain, Wild Palms, The Lawnmower Man, and others? And how did monumental video games such as System Shock, System Shock 2 and Bioforge influence us as players?For the send-off, how did philosophy and existentialism surmount in such treasures as Philip K. Dick's novels and research, eXistenZ, Dark City, The Thirteenth Floor, and most notably of all, The Matrix? In summary, we will try to answer the eternal question, "Are we living in a computer simulation?".0:00 Intro2:58 Opening Credits3:53 GOING VIRAL5:09 Snow Crash12:34 Virtual Light15:12 Idoru16:59 All Tomorrow's Parties19:07 Transmetropolitan20:05 Marvel 209920:58 Batman Beyond22:00 Aeon Flux24:10 HACK THE PLANET25:18 Phreaking27:16 The origins of the Internet27:32 1995 - The Year Computers Went Viral30:39 Real-Life Hackers32:19 Sneakers33:44 The Net35:18 Hackers39:01 Johnny Mnemonic45:42 New Rose Hotel47:18 Serial Experiments Lain50:17 HACKING HUMANITY50:29 Gattaca54:41 Bioforge55:48 System Shock58:43 System Shock 21:04:14 Heavy Metal & Movie Soundtracks1:06:36 Industrial & Electronic Music Movement1:10:49 Daft Punk1:12:07 Billy Idol's Cyberpunk Album1:14:06 REALITY, REPLICATED1:16:01 Virtual Boy1:16:58 VR in TV and Film1:17:48 VR-51:18:50 TekWar1:19:48 The Lawnmower Man1:22:53 Wild Palms1:25:52 Virtuosity1:27:47 Strange Days1:31:50 Nirvana (1997)1:34:55 The X-Files1:37:30 LIVING IN A DREAM WORLD1:42:15 Simulacra and Simulation1:44:17 Dark City1:48:15 The Thirteenth Floor & Simulacron 31:51:49 eXistenZ1:54:52 THE MATRIX PHENOMENON1:56:47 Story2:00:11 Production2:01:47 Soundtrack2:02:39 Inspirations2:04:28 The Invisibles comparisons2:05:12 Dark City comparisons2:06:45 Philosophy2:13:25 Simulation Theory / Nick Bostrom2:15:30 Outro / Credits-CREDITSAdditional writing by Cult of the Cyber Skullyoutube.com/c/CultoftheCyberSkullVoiceover editing/mastering by Erik Peabodyhttp://www.vikingguitar.comOriginal 3D animation for opening credits by Bojechtoartstation.com/bojechtoWilliam Gibson quotes voiced by Jake Phillipsfiverr.com/jacobphillip116Additional voiceovers by Jay Myersfiverr.com/jaymyers1564-MASTER SOURCE/CREDITS DOCUMENT(all music, footage and sources used in the making of this video):docs.google.com/document/d/1cXU5c9NEnA30nzD60YWwIozvbYRK6a5_QDYzrF9aZzs/edit?usp=sharingOpening credits music:The Bad Dreamers - "Part Time God"youtube.com/watch?v=YSyRn8iBkvYLicensed through FiXT Radium fixtradium.comfixtneon.bandcamp.com/track/part-time-god#cyberpunk #documentary #thematrix-PATREON ► patreon.com/IndigoGamingSUBSCRIBESTAR ► subscribestar.com/indigogamingKO-FI ► ko-fi.com/indigogamingTWITTER ► twitter.com/TheIndigoGamingLIVESTREAMS ► youtube.com/c/IndigoGamingArchiveTWITCH ► http://www.twitch.tv/indigogamingchannelDISCORD ► discord.gg/j98gDah

Not Forgotten - NetStorm: Islands at War | The Tower Offense Real-Time Strategy Game Indigo Gaming 2020-05-11 | Let's set our course to NetStorm: Islands at War, the obscure 1997 real-time strategy game by Titanic Entertainment. NetStorm was to be the first online-focused RTS ever made by a major studio, and on top of that accomplishment, it created a fascinating and memorable world, with Chess-like combat, Tetris-esque puzzle mechanics, and online multiplayer capabilities, that hasn't quite been replicated anywhere else.This episode of Not Forgotten looks into the history of the game's development, the context of 1997s internet restrictions, what made the game fail, and its community revivals, including a spiritual successor and even a Starcraft 2 mod.Join the unofficial NetStorm community on Discord: discord.gg/ZB9ty3gVote for Netstorm on GOG’s Community Wishlistgog.com/wishlist/games/netstorm_islands_at_war0:00 - Introduction to NetStorm2:31 - What made Netstorm unique9:48 - Online gameplay issues, hacking, launch timing13:56 - The future of NetStorm------SPECIAL THANKSPWMI, lead developer of Netstorm multiplayer restoration project------MUSICNetStorm original soundtrack composed by Mark MorganAdditional music licensed through Epidemic Sound:epidemicsound.com------FOOTAGEStarCraft gameplay by JayborinoPlays: youtube.com/watch?v=uWLL_varqiwCommand & Conquer gameplay by Major Thriftwood: youtube.com/channel/UC_DzFn0bLaSR_EvaAh8FKZAUltima VII gameplay by Major Thriftwood: youtube.com/watch?v=flpiaHUxUMkAge of Empires gameplay by Nookrium: youtube.com/watch?v=ADKHIJ-J4pcWarcraft gameplay by Stu: youtube.com/watch?v=gqnVx3MB0-8Warcraft II gameplay by Stu: youtube.com/watch?v=PqczlhTpT2IQuake gameplay by Pagb666: youtube.com/watch?v=rlsQkvZhnnEFlash Element TD gameplay by Splazer Productions youtube.com/watch?v=2VAHWL_GQKgAge of Empires upscaled intro cinematic by The Gaming Restoration | youtube.com/watch?v=FD4vTrsoM3s------SOURCESNetStorm:netstorm.fandom.com/wiki/The_NetStorm_Historyweb.archive.org/web/20071012132627/http://www.experimentalgameplay.com/blog.php?b=14tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/VideoGame/Netstormnetstorm.fandom.com/wiki/NetStormWorldmobygames.com/game/windows/netstorm-islands-at-warmobygames.com/company/titanic-entertainmentgamespot.com/articles/netstorm-demo-out/1100-2467703web.archive.org/web/20000618065831/http://www.gamecenter.com/Features/Exclusives/Notbought/ss10.htmlweb.archive.org/web/20190930122120/http://www.netstormhq.netKen Demarest:arcadeattack.co.uk/ken-demarest-interviewraphkoster.com/2012/02/17/making-of-uo-articles-at-mmorpg-commmorpg.com/ultima-online/general-articles/the-making-of-a-classic-part-1-2000093214bizjournals.com/austin/news/2016/07/11/online-streaming-service-twitch-opens-office-south.htmlgiantbomb.com/shows/the-bioforge-interview/2970-17104Successors / crowdfunding campaigns:moddb.com/games/netstorm-2-storms-of-nimbuskickstarter.com/projects/525138512/disciples-of-the-stormkickstarter.com/projects/525138512/disciples-of-the-storm-rtskicktraq.com/projects/525138512/disciples-of-the-storm-rtskicktraq.com/projects/525138512/disciples-of-the-stormindiegogo.com/projects/disciples-of-the-storm#Starcraft 2 module (unreleased):sc2mapster.com/projects/netstorm-islands-war----------------PATREON ► patreon.com/IndigoGamingSUBSCRIBESTAR ► subscribestar.com/indigogamingKO-FI ► ko-fi.com/indigogamingDISCORD CHAT ► discord.gg/j98gDahLIVESTREAMS ► youtube.com/c/IndigoGamingArchiveTWITTER ► twitter.com/TheIndigoGamingTWITCH ► http://www.twitch.tv/indigogamingchannelFACEBOOK ► facebook.com/IndigoGamingChannel#Tetris #Starcraft #RTS

DUSTWIND Review | The Fallout: Tactics Successor You Should Be Playing Indigo Gaming 2019-05-27 | On my 2nd and long-awaited episode of Apocalypse Archives, let's look into Dustwind, an unofficial spiritual successor to Fallout: Tactics.Released in 2018, Dustwind brings the combat-focused tactical gameplay of Fallout: Tactics, and brings in online co-op and PvP modes, as well as official and community-designed maps. To top it all off, the game features a plug-and-play community map rating system, a la Little Big Planet -- powered by Steam Workshop!I highly recommend this game, though I do have some misgivings with its lack of single-player campaign.Check out Dustwind on Steam:store.steampowered.com/app/600460/Dustwind----------------MUSIC CREDITS'Dark Matter' by Chasms'Doom is Mood Backwards' by The Whole Other'Hero Theme (Sting)' by MK2'Carrier' from YouTube Audio'The Machine Assembly' by The Whole OtherAnd other music licensed through Audioblocks----------------PATREON ► patreon.com/IndigoGamingSUBSCRIBESTAR ► subscribestar.com/indigogamingKO-FI ► ko-fi.com/indigogamingDISCORD CHAT ► discord.gg/j98gDahLIVESTREAMS ► youtube.com/c/IndigoGamingArchiveTWITTER ► twitter.com/TheIndigoGamingTWITCH ► http://www.twitch.tv/indigogamingchannelFACEBOOK ► facebook.com/IndigoGamingChannel

INSOMNIA: The Ark Review | Old-School Fallout Successor Indigo Gaming 2018-11-12 | Don't like the direction Fallout 76 went? Here is the debut episode of a series where I explore the games that emulate that old-school Fallout feeling. Apocalypse Archives is going to be a set of reviews of post-apocalyptic RPGs, action and survival games that are compelling, fun and immersive, with great alternatives to Bethesda's more divisive Fallout 4 and Fallout 76 titles.The first game covered in this series is Insomnia: The Ark, a game by Studio Mono, set on a decrepit space station where factions, clandestine operatives and supernatural forces collide in an unusual but compelling setting. Borrowing elements from old-school Fallout, and new-school RPGs like Mass Effect, this game is one to keep an eye out for.Full disclosure: I was given a Steam key for this game free of charge by the developer.Buy INSOMNIA: The Ark on Steam:store.steampowered.com/app/783170/INSOMNIA_The_Ark----------------FOOTAGE CREDITSFallout 76 gameplay by Digital Foundry:youtube.com/watch?v=PD2A0EPKxUc----------------MUSIC CREDITS'Hero Theme Sting' by MK2'Blast Off to Glory' by Media Right Productions'The Machine Assembly' by The Whole Other'Junkyard Tribe' by Kevin MacLeodAnd other tracks licensed through Audioblocks.----------------DONATIONS ► patreon.com/IndigoGamingDISCORD CHAT ► discord.gg/j98gDahLIVESTREAMS ► youtube.com/c/IndigoGamingArchiveTWITTER ► twitter.com/TheIndigoGamingTWITCH ► http://www.twitch.tv/indigogamingchannelFACEBOOK ► facebook.com/IndigoGamingChannel#Fallout #RPG #Fallout76

Dark Earth Creator Interview | Guillaume Le Pennec Indigo Gaming 2018-08-24 | Watch Not Forgotten - Dark Earth ► youtube.com/watch?v=0rzLcDQNG3gIn researching my last video about the underappreciated 1997 action-adventure game, Dark Earth, I learned a lot more about the development of the game, and hints at the many planned trans-media expansions into its world. A big-budget movie, a TV show, a tabletop role-playing game, multiple sequel projects and more.In my investigation, I located Guillaume Le Pennec, who oversaw the game's production as well as wrote the worldbuilding "bible" of which the franchise was based upon. We did an audio interview, and I used much of his insight when completing my scripted video about the game. Though some of this information may be redundant with that video now, I still find our talk insightful, and it's a fascinating curiosity to hear first-hand how a now-obscure game NEARLY became a household name around the entire world.I hope you enjoy this honest conversation between a lover and documentarian of games and one of its more talented creators.----------------TABLE OF CONTENTS0:00 - Intro1:41 - Alone in the Dark, Guillaume's career as a journalist4:24 - Influences, similarities with The City of Lost Children6:28 - Ron Perlman / Fallout7:05 - Mindscape and the formation of Kalisto Entertainment10:07 - What could you have improved about Dark Earth given more time/budget?13:07 - Learning curves, the evolution of game manuals and tutorials15:59 - Effort that went into optional content17:54 - Voice acting challenges28:11 - Crunch time, game development issues34:48 - Middle-market games and Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice39:59 - Alone in the Dark, cinematic angle, "tank-controls" games46:49 - Nightmare Creatures48:49 - Games Journalism51:15 - French adventure games55:27 - Bioforge57:04 - The hybridization of role-playing games and adventure games1:00:19 - Zed's character, was there additional story with him that was cut?1:06:04 - Dark Earth tabletop role-playing game1:12:04 - Dark Earth animation, movie, TV show1:14:13 - Terry Gilliam1:14:16 - Steven Spielberg1:15:04 - Heart of Darkness1:15:22 - Dark Earth novel - 'The Torch'1:17:07 - Dark Earth intellectual property, future Dark Earth movie?1:20:55 - Dark Earth sequels1:21:25 - Square-published sequel - Dark Earth: Silent Chaos1:25:47 - Pac-Man game1:26:13 - Retaining Dark Earth's lore and coherency1:33:42 - Did the Sunseers actually have any power?1:39:15 - Characters misunderstanding a fictional world, Horizon: Zero Dawn1:40:47 - Similarities to Horizon: Zero Dawn1:41:38 - Dark Earth sequel concept1:46:23 - What do you think games could get better at in the future?1:49:48 - Games about societal collapse1:55:01 - What Guillaume is doing today, translation work, etc.1:56:11 - Jim Butcher novels, demographic shift in readers2:00:29 - Would you ever get back into game design again?2:01:50 - Did you work with or know Yves Guillemot (Ubisoft CEO)?2:04:25 - What led to Kalisto's bankruptcy?

Part true adventure game, part action/thriller, with strong influences from Alone in the Dark (shared by the popular Resident Evil).Though we only saw the PC game state-side, this was prepped to be a massive franchise, with two editions of a tabletop RPG released in France, a tie-in novel written, and multiple cancelled sequels and spin-offs, with a TV show with Ridley Scott, a movie deal with Steven Spielberg attached, and even an animated cartoon in the works, but never finished.In this longest episode of Not Forgotten yet, we'll explore what made this setting and game so compelling, and why we should remember it, lest it be forgotten.Vote for Dark Earth to be brought back on GOG:gog.com/wishlist/games/dark_earth0:00 - Intro 3:29 - Kalisto Entertainment, Dark Earth inspirations9:32 - Atmosphere13:11 - Temptation mechanics and dark/light mood18:23 - Later projects, future of the franchise----------------MUSIC CREDITSDark Earth soundtrack composed by Frédéric MotteYoutube audio library music include:'Archetype' by Anno Domini Beats'Casual Desire' by Ugonna Onyekwe'Northern Lights' by Chris Haugen'Apocalypse' by SYBS'Aurora Currents' by Asher Fulero'Elegy' by Wayne Jones'White Hats' by Wayne Jones'Forest of Fear' by Aakash GandhiStock music licensed through Audioblocks----------------GAMES REFERENCEDAdventure (1979)Zork I (1980)Secret of Monkey Island (1990)Alone in the Dark (1992)Dark Earth (1997)Resident Evil (1996)Nightmare Creatures (1997)Grim Fandango (1998)Little Big Adventure 2: Twinsen’s Odyssey (1997)Flashback (1992)Maniac Mansion (1987)King’s Quest VI (1992)Pac-In-Time (1995)The Fifth Element (1998)New York Race (2001)----------------FOOTAGE CREDITSTwinsen’s Odyssey gameplay by Teske’s Lab | youtube.com/watch?v=x71InU2DXdsFlashback gameplay by Retrogaming Computing | youtube.com/watch?v=wNTnRM77XuEManiac Mansion gameplay by Mike Shade | youtube.com/watch?v=xqHR7IH2uLgKing’s Quest VI gameplay by John Wolfe | youtube.com/watch?v=HkjNAR85oggPac-In-Time gameplay by 1upTVGames | youtube.com/watch?v=tkW9j3ATEMsGrim Fandango gameplay by CuteFloor | youtube.com/watch?v=-9KWGI8JrXwThe Fifth Element gameplay by chiliconcomrades | youtube.com/watch?v=VzxzJCQ_0LgNew York Race gameplay by ColdheartDunther | youtube.com/watch?v=GF10WGPuqZgCold Fear gameplay by SweepersTonyAndNox | youtube.com/watch?v=2r8EpMoLF94&list=RD2r8EpMoLF94----------------SOURCESThanks to Guillaume Le Pennec for taking the time for an interview and clarifying many points about the game's development and the studio's history.en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dark_Earth_(video_game)en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kalisto_Entertainmentecole.org/fr/626/CR220305-ENG.pdfhttp://www.hardcoregaming101.net/dark-earthhttp://gaming.wikia.com/wiki/Dark_Earthfr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dark_Earth_(jeu_de_r%C3%B4le)gamefaqs.gamespot.com/pc/197044-dark-earth/faqs/2343hg101.kontek.net/darkearth/darkearth.htmunseen64.net/2009/08/03/silent-chaos-psx-cancelledyoutube.com/watch?time_continue=152&v=6aEdToNfYU8&ab_channel=CanOfTheRelicswsj.com/articles/SB939678665166209918eurogamer.net/articles/article_45505http://www.jdrp.fr/catalogue/dark-earth-97.html----------------DONATIONS ► patreon.com/IndigoGamingDISCORD CHAT ► discord.gg/j98gDahSTREAM ARCHIVE ► youtube.com/c/IndigoGamingArchiveTWITTER ► twitter.com/TheIndigoGamingTWITCH ► http://www.twitch.tv/indigogamingchannelFACEBOOK ► facebook.com/IndigoGamingChannel

Interview with the Father of the Elder Scrolls | Julian Jensen (aka Julian LeFay) Indigo Gaming 2017-10-31 | An in-depth 3-hour interview with programmer/game designer Julian Jensen (aka Julian LeFay), the creator of the Elder Scrolls, and one of the primary forces behind classics like Arena, Daggerfall and Battlespire.Julian LeFay is one of the most important people in the early development of The Elder Scrolls as a series, sometimes even credited with being its father. This is due to his high profile during the early development of the series, and comments by Ted Peterson and Vijay Lakshman that LeFay "spear-headed the initial development". This was really needed as, up until that time, Bethesda had never released a Role-Playing Game. Eventually, Arena developed into the most award-winning Role Playing Game of 1995.Julian now goes by Julian Jensen, and he was kind enough to interview for a few hours while we talked about his origins, his long history with the Elder Scrolls and Terminator games at Bethesda Softworks, as well as his vision that was to be Morrowind and the continuation of the series he had a major hand in creating.LeFay was born on Oct. 30, 1965 in Denmark. During the early 1980s, he began programming and quickly became known as one of the best Amstrad and Amiga programmers during the high period of Commodore's success. His programs have won numerous industry awards in virtually every category. Julian LeFay joined Bethesda shortly after its creation in 1987 and eventually became Chief Programmer. At this time, he was considered by many as one of the key technical people in the entertainment multimedia industry as he combined a rare mix of programming knowledge and computer language skills with proven design capability and music composition experience.----------------CONVERSATION TOPICS0:00 - Intro2:24 - What was your role in creating the Elder Scrolls?13:28 - How'd you get into programming?22:06 - Elder Scrolls tabletop origins31:18 - Arena's influences40:41 - Do you still talk to the original Elder Scrolls team?49:33 - How could Daggerfall be improved with modern technology/experience?53:47 - Improving procedural generation1:11:34 - What could have been done if Daggerfall got another 6-12 months?1:29:09 - PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds1:41:39 - Why do modern devs play it safe and not innovate?1:43:51 - Tabula Rasa1:46:07 - Favorite game to work on1:48:45 - Were there any big plans for the Elder Scrolls after Battlespire?1:51:53 - Machiavelli's prudent archers1:55:22 - Star Citizen1:58:39 - Elite and Elite: Dangerous2:00:49 - The Morrowind that never was2:05:28 - The Witcher 32:07:31 - Elder Scrolls: Redguard2:18:42 - Why did you leave Bethesda?2:22:43 - What are you up to now?2:32:06 - Do you agree with post-2000s Bethesda's direction?2:34:05 - What makes Daggerfall so special and immersive?2:37:48 - Daggerfall fan remakes2:44:59 - Do you still play music?2:47:34 - Eric Heberling, composer for Daggerfall2:49:16 - What games do you play now?2:51:24 - Mods and paid mods2:57:18 - Anything to say to fans/modders remaking your games?2:58:41 - Naming the gods of Tamriel2:59:39 - Was there any secret arc or plan for the story?3:05:38 - Work on Skullgirls----------------MUSIC CREDITSDaggerfall soundtrack was composed and arranged by Eric Heberling.http://heberlingmusic.com/index.htmlRemixes in this video were created by:Dan Goodale, Karl Christmas, Ramon Molesworth and Robert Hood.http://teatimecoder.com/daggerfall-musicAdditional Daggerfall remixes by Leozim5:soundcloud.com/leozim5----------------ARTWORK / FOOTAGE CREDITSThe Division screenshot/real life comparison:np.reddit.com/r/thedivision/comments/49ob1h/the_division_did_an_awesome_job_with_my_brooklynThe Terminator (1991), Terminator 2029 and The Elder Scrolls: Arena gameplay by Thriftweeds:youtube.com/watch?v=PnO0ShP56aAyoutube.com/watch?v=N-PBi-N1hQoyoutube.com/watch?v=B3SW2Uz63VYBattlespire gameplay by zirkoni88:youtube.com/watch?v=tPlV1I0AhGQDaggerfall Unity gameplay by Galactic Chicken:youtube.com/watch?v=U7JCP2ih-zEElder Scrolls icons / mock covers by Blakegedye and King Reverant:blakegedye.deviantart.comkingreverant.deviantart.com/art/The-Elder-Scrolls-series-icons-161685128Sword of Sodan gameplay by World of Longplays:youtu.be/EoI9NH5GlQw----------------PATREON ► patreon.com/IndigoGamingTWITCH ► twitch.tv/indigogamingchannelTWITTER ► twitter.com/TheIndigoGamingFACEBOOK ► facebook.com/IndigoGamingChannelDISCORD ► discord.gg/j98gDah#Daggerfall #TheElderScrolls #TES

From the humble beginnings of Interplay's Fallout, to the Black Isle Studio masterpiece Fallout 2, the spinoffs and failures in-between (Fallout Tactics, Fallout: Brotherhood of Steel and the 'Van Buren' project), its long-awaited Bethesda-developed reboot: Fallout 3, the revered sidestep Fallout: New Vegas by Obsidian Entertainment, and finally to the latest entry Fallout 4 and what the future may hold for the Fallout franchise.Join me on this adventure to find out where the series got it right, where it missteped, and why I believe that despite technological improvements and innovations over the years, the series has taken a turn for the worse both in atmosphere and setting, and its focus on simplification over player choice, agency and freedom.And hopefully you'll agree with me on my treatise that modern Fallout isn't Fallout.0:00 - Intro1:36 - The Inspirations of Fallout (Wizardry, Ultima, Wasteland)2:41 - A Post-Nuclear Role-Playing Game (Fallout)7:52 - If It Ain't Broke (Fallout 2, Fallout Tactics, Fallout: The Brotherhood of Steel, Van Buren)12:08 - Fallout, Mutated (Fallout 3)18:52 - A Second Chance (Fallout: New Vegas)23:52 - The Radioactive Decay of a Series (Fallout 4)28:59 - The Future of FalloutCheck out the promising fan remake of Van Buren here: facebook.com/f3vanburen----------------MUSIC CREDITSFallout & Fallout 2 Soundtrack by Mark Morgan (http://www.markmorganmusic.com)'Earthy Crust Sting' by Jingle Punks'Mind Scrape' by Kevin MacLeod'Drizzle to Downpour' by Silent Partner'Dhaka' by Kevin MacLeod'Beginning' by Audionautix'Invariance' by Kevin MacLeod'Lithium' by Kevin MacLeod'A Wonderful Guy' by Tex Beneke'Aftermath - Madness Paranoia' by Kevin MacLeod'Flying Free' by Jingle Punks'1940's Slow Dance' by Doug Maxwell / Media Right Productions'Fallout 4 Main Theme' by Inon Zur'Darkness is Coming' by Kevin MacLeod'Alien Sunset' by Audionautix'Slowly Increasing 0R_37mi' by Setuniman'Hang Ups (Want You)' by Otis McDonald----------------SOURCESGURPS wiki:http://fallout.wikia.com/wiki/Vault_13:_A_GURPS_Post-Nuclear_AdventureGURPS preview:youtube.com/watch?v=3kd9SiAIhssTim Cain at GDC 2012:youtube.com/watch?v=Xa5IzHhAdi4Tim Cain interview:http://www.duckandcover.cx/content.php?id=7Chris Avellone interview:theguardian.com/technology/2007/may/03/games.shopping1Todd Howard interview (Ultima quote):wired.com/2015/12/todd-howard-profileFallout 4 Todd Howard interview:gamespot.com/articles/fallout-4-interview-we-re-probably-doing-too-much/1100-6428336Fallout 4 gunplay interview with Todd Howarddestructoid.com/destiny-inspired-fallout-4-s-gunplay-319165.phtml----------------ARTWORK CREDITS'X 01 Advanced Power Armor' by Rafał Badanartstation.com/obrotowy'Cold Encounters' by Cryinghorncryinghorn.deviantart.com/art/Fallout-2-Fan-Art-Cold-Encounters-301040531'Enclave soldiers', 'New Washington D.C.', and 'In the vicinity of Lucky 38' by TakeOFFFlytakeofffly.deviantart.com/art/In-the-vicinity-of-Lucky-38-Fallout-World-646532815takeofffly.deviantart.com/art/Enclave-soldiers-Fallout-World-468760847takeofffly.deviantart.com/art/Fallout-World-New-Washington-D-C-406795485'A day to build a life on' and 'City Ruins' by Natiq Aghayevartstation.com/artwork/BVDm6http://defonten.cgsociety.org/art/fallout-maya-post-nuclear-photoshop-shelter-abandoned-a-day-build-life-on-805260----------------FOOTAGE CREDITSFallout: Brotherhood of Steel gameplay from TomGamer:youtube.com/user/TomsWalkingGameSome Fallout: New Vegas and Fallout 4 gameplay from MrBlockzGaming:youtube.com/user/MrBlockzGamingVan Buren gameplay from CuteFloor:youtube.com/channel/UCRt4hVnvg0_soJJ6Fo8FEsgFallout 1 death animations from march12314:youtube.com/channel/UCvI-3Nm6sKCPmK2RINQ8IMg----------------PATREON ► patreon.com/IndigoGamingTWITCH ► twitch.tv/indigogamingchannelTWITTER ► twitter.com/TheIndigoGamingFACEBOOK ► facebook.com/IndigoGamingChannel#Fallout #Fallout 2 #FalloutNewVegas
