Writing on Games

Been asked about the Hitman 3 video *constantly* since minute one of its release. Some jokey, some normal, some legit angry creepy stuff that suggests my other work is shit.

First off, it& #39;s the next one up. I& #39;ve been working on it alongside other videos for months now. A lot of people don& #39;t seem to get how long any vid takes, let alone longer ones like this. Had a year with the first game. Several months with the second.

And I dunno, I worked day and night trying to get a video done that I posted today. Proud of it, despite stressful all-nighters aplenty. I still work like 60 hours a week at this stuff.

One of the first comments is essentially "cool but what about Hitman 3".

I get it, it& #39;s a joke and everything, but it& #39;s just... man. I& #39;m glad people like those other Hitman videos, I really am. It& #39;s just that this kinda shit makes me ask "is this just it now? Is my work just becoming defined by this one franchise?!"

And lemme tell ya, *that& #39;s* the kind of internal questioning that, if I hadn& #39;t already put so much work into this upcoming vid, would definitely make me resistant towards feeding that pigeonholing any more than I may already have done.

To be clear, not angry at anyone about this. Don& #39;t feel bad if you& #39;ve contributed to this (aside from the weird angry creepos). Just a little deflated is all and venting to give some perspective.

THANKS FOR LISTENING

oh and I guess I should actually post a link to the video I uploaded today

God I& #39;m bad at this lol https://youtu.be/KDnk0AvLcD4 ">https://youtu.be/KDnk0AvLc...
