Hi! I hope you enjoyed the Mahjong video! :D
I've been enjoying reading the comments and reactions on it this week, and I'm so happy many people seem to like it! I like being able to show a lot of people G'raha being the most supportive and cutest Mahjong companion~
And there were people interested in trying out Mahjong too! Yess, do it! For the best boy!!! And for the game, it would be nice if it got more popular :)
One thing that did bother me in the comments though is how a lot of people seem to read Estinien...there were a few comments like "he wouldn't have the brain to play Mahjong", "he'd eat the tiles", "he'd hold the tiles wrong". Guys...Estinien is not dumb. He doesn't care about money and politics, he is an introvert and slightly awkward in certain situations, but he is not...dumb. Where did that come from?!
And also, he canonically knows how to play Mahjong, by the way. Not that I expected everyone to be aware of it, but!!! Did you know there was a Pop Team Epic collab with FFXIV? It's very good. And look who's playing Mahjong there!
This happened a little with the Late Night Visit too, with Estinien's part, and I just...why? Maybe it's the same thing that happens when people dumb down G'raha to just the "foodie cat", I guess. I will keep doing my best to portray the characters in the best light I believe they deserve!!
...anyway, ranting aside. That's not the only thing I've been doing though, because I immediately started my next video!!! The goal is to finish it before the end of the month, it was supposed to be something very simple - and it is simpler than Mahjong - but uh...
I think I got a little bit excited with the idea there. I already learned a few new tricks to make the renders look prettier. Can you tell??
So now I'm motivated to make this video look the prettiest yet. Hopefully.
I still have to finish layouting, but I'm hoping it won't go over 40 seconds and 10 shots. The idea is pretty simple this time! If I don't finish it by the end of the month however, I might not have enough time for an April Fool's video...so the quicker I finish this one, the more complex the other will be. I have an idea for it, but it'd definitely going to take some time to make...let's see how that goes!
This weekend I plan on finishing the lore video I talked about before, and then next one will be the Behind the Scenes for Mahjong. I initially planned to make both of during the week to take a break from the animations for a few days, but I have to admit, I...got overly excited with this new idea and started that instead. But it's in the works! Audio is already recorded and subtitled, I just need to get the footage :)
Lots to work on from now on~
Thank you for reading and for your support!
