    Back with a big video. Not making as many vids but I'm making an indie Animatic Pilot. My life was in a rut but not anymore.

    I have been obsessed with No More Heroes ever since I first played it back in 2010 and have never heard of someone see it in such a light and take it to heart like that. The best kinds of games to me are the ones you can still find new things out about years later even after dissecting the hell out of it, leave you thinking about it and still come back to it time and time again. A real classic. Great vid as usual

    • @RebelTaxi
      @RebelTaxi  Před 3 lety +265

      I did watch several other NMH analysis vids and found it funny each one had different interpretations. Somehow I found the game more optimistic but also acknowledging every dream job will devolve into a regular one.

      @@RebelTaxi SPOILER: I have to disagree that being an assassin was Travis' dream because he only became one to impress Silvia, some random chick at a bar who heard Travis' drunken ramblings who then turns out made a fake assassin organization to con everyone out of their money. Still, Travis is just some bored nerd burnout who wanted to feel something. Which is why he's willing to go on a killing spree and to get laid in the process. Travis running around a quiet town doing random odd jobs so he can participate in organized killings shows how bleak and dark the first NMH really was. But of course, everyone has their own perspective of the game.

    This probably won’t mean anything coming from a rando online, but I genuinely hope your animatic is successful.
    I’ve been subscribed to you for about a decade. You were my introduction into the animation community; I’ve unsubscribed from a lot of animation channels over the years, but yours has consistently made me smile, laugh, or think deeper on any subject.
    Even your old videos make me nostalgic for my own old art; it’s crazy how much you’ve improved!
    I don’t know how to end this, but I’m really proud of you, Pan; don’t ever stop working hard to achieve your dreams.
