Either way, it's depressing that the whole scene is so dependent on the college calendar. Kind of illustrates how homogeneous and narrow the scene actually is, doesn't it?


You could be watching Angel's Game.

My goodness, you are dead set about being depressed about something, aren't you? Well, as someone already pointed out, you could always watch Dark Harvest, but in actual reality hands up fried eggs, the fact that people are the same age or race has very little to do with how they express themselves through a given medium. I mean, let's take a quick jaunt over to Hollywood, yes? There we have a whole bunch of middle-aged white guys making films, and YET a lot of them turn out fantastically different (I'm only talking about the good ones here, I know the crap ones are all the same).

Besides, if we take a look at the "big three" you'll find that they're all different in significant ways, right? Sure they share a lot of elements, but they are in fact members of the same genre and therefore that's kind of a given.

As for Angel's Game, I think that the use of a countdown to bridge a wait that I'm sure was unavoidable was an excellent choice, though of course a few tweets/messages/videos just to fully flesh out the calm before the storm would have been lovely, but no series will ever be perfect.

Also, I don't think we AMURICANS even understand our educational system, seeing as we care about it less than space exploration, which we just stripped of nearly all of its budget.

There are plenty of things wrong with the American education system. College midterms isn't one of them. They are like any other test, and that they take place in the middle of the semester means jackshit.

Unless by "homogeneous and narrow" you are talking about the similarity in schedules in which case...okay, so what? Is it that horrifying? Is it a bad thing that I can visit my friends in Colorado from Texas because we have similar time frames? Or that we can commiserate over midterms because we are having them at similar intervals?

I love you man, really, but I'm kind of boggling over this comment.

Besides, yes, it is likely that the various vlogs are being held up something by college but it is also likely that the cause is something completely different. We don't know, as we are not privy to the lives of the creators.

I was talking about demographics. It's something we've mentioned before.

Wait, don't you mean Dark Harvest? I'm pretty sure this was the one with the countdown timer. Either you got the two mixed up or there's a second countdown timer I am completely unaware of.

I thought I wasn't going to be here for the 'Rite'. Turns out I miscalculated. Now it turns out I actually do have to go somewhere at five. This sucks.

The timer ended, I refreshed both log and the youtube channel. Nothing yet. :c

Wait, it says 2 weeks, but this video is new. It has been private until now. Surprised

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7-YaVmNDrvI&feature=channel_video_title

THE SACRIFICE IS COMPLETE
AHAHAHAHA
WORD IS LAW OUR MASTERS.

That's what I got from it. I could've typo'd it.

Looks like this http://kindervonderritter.blogspot.com/ has changed background colors.

Not a typo, but I think it's supposed to be:

"OUR MASTERS WORD IS LAW" ... just saying.

Hm. But yea, nothing really happened (that we know). Maybe later today/tomorrow (for me anyways), they'll have updated saying something happened? When I think sacrifice, I think killing someone/something.

"First Dusk" definitely implies some sort of evening/nighttime encounter is coming up. Perhaps the first of a series?

Pretty ominous video... maybe this means the series is going to be back from their break?
Hope so.

I did saw something about the Fourth Dawn. I think it was on the blogspot.

Also, they were playing Zelda in their videos. Who knows. Laughing
