I noticed that I've gained followers in the past few days who might be interested in my video game booklets. If I do reprints, would you buy any of them (via my Ko-fi store)? If so, let me know which ones! That way I don't end up printing too many or too few.
@itsmako amazing! haven’t heard anything quite like it and they really nailed the sort of eeriness that came with it. thank you guys for bringing this song to life.
@itsmako It’s one of my favorite songs on the soundtrack, and does so well at capturing a kind of dread that can only come from an ancient and looming threat. I think the sound at 0:16 adds to the eeriness, which is why it stuck out to me, and wondered about the inspiration for it.
@itsmako hi @itsmako ! following along with the topic, i was hoping to ask about the specific sound that you start to hear from 0:16 that then appears repeatedly throughout the song. it reminds me of running a pipe over a grate—or even a bone on a ribcage. What did you use to create it?
I was rewatching the finale and realized a reprise of “The Bridge”, the song that Powder sings in the start of the series, plays as we see the airship fly off
#Arcane
I can’t imagine the difficulties faced during production. Tough decisions definitely had to be made and season 2 was affected—but so were the people working on it. I don’t know the extent of it, but I want to appreciate all the hard work that went into Arcane.
It’s been a week since #Arcane was released and even now I can’t shake the feeling of awe that I got to experience something so striking and beautiful in my lifetime. A heartfelt thank you to Studio Fortiche and everyone that worked to make Arcane what it is.
The execution in that regard might not have been the best, but…what’s amazing to me is how somehow it still works. I liked the story beats and they were still able to capture some very intense and heartfelt moments despite it all. A lot of it still resonated with me.
The appearance or symbolism of the gear is also in a lot of their scenes, so the gear-shaped table in their context (and seeing it first with Jayce) feels significant to me. Just my thoughts, but I thought it was a nice detail.
The gear shaped table in the Piltover council room is repaired with gold after being broken in pieces, like the practice of kintsugi with ceramics. One interpretation of kintsugi is that there’s beauty in imperfections. Even if broken—the imperfections are what make it beautiful.
