Surprise! A new video is releasing tomorrow!

Dishonored - A Lengthy Retrospective is coming out TOMORROW at 6PM BST
Now, you might be thinking "doesn't this thumbnail look slightly different?" and to that I would say "How observant you are!"
Essentially, I came to the realisation that covering the history of Arkane Studios, Dishonored 1, the DLC, Dishonored 2 and Death of the Outsider in a single video was going to lead to yet another 6+ hour project and that it would not release this side of Christmas (or potentially even in January)
So in the spirit of trying new things in the new post-cancer era of IFAVG - I've decided to split the video into two and give you one in December and one in January
Now that doesn't mean you're only getting half a video as this is still three hours of pretty in depth history, analysis, debate and criticism - exactly the sort of thing you'd expect from the channel. The only difference is that we'll be exploring the franchise over a couple of releases rather than all at once - but this is still very much a stand alone retrospective with it's own identity.
Anyway - I hope this is an exciting surprise! This new slightly more bitesize way of working should hopefully mean more videos more often but frankly - I think this is one of my best videos regardless of any changes in structure. I'm excited for you to all see it!
As for the Curio - I hope you'll forgive me that it's just one for Dishonored 1 and 2 together. Its a meaty video in it's own right which I've debated putting onto the main channel so hopefully that isn't too disappointing. I think you'll be really happy with it and after watching this video - your appetite should be wet...
So yeah - I'll see you tomorrow in the comments!
Much love,
Matt

Honestly - it works better for me as well because there is so much less financial pressure on each video to succeed. This way I think I'll have a lot more freedom to cover different topics and you'll all get videos far more often!

Thanks again (in advance) for keeping my company through future sleepless nights (seriously thank you so much, I love every video you make).

Personally, I think I like this style more. 2-4 hours is such a perfect length. Unless it’s about Castlevania, in which case you can talk about it for as long as you want 😂

Thanks my friend! Hopefully everyone enjoys it - I really think it's the best thing I've made all year

I've tired to emulate the Vagrant Story video to a degree here! If you've not played the game you should still get a LOT out of watching this!

Nope - so this video covers Corvo and Daud and then the second will be looking at Emily and Billie. Basically splitting it into two eras - main game and it's DLC!

Woohoo!

Can't wait to watch this and it will be a fantastic look at a game I've never had the pleasure of playing. This was the best surprise.

Not disappointed at all! I assume the delineation here is between Corvo's story in this first video and Daus's story in the second?
