  • It's all about the narrative... Take a dive into the narrative rich world of Ninja Theory; go behind the scenes of the Cambridge based studio to see how it comes together to create the incredible journey of Senua's Saga: Hellblade II; how motion capture was used to enhance Melina Juergens performance; how the studio sensitively approached mental health and psychosis; and what the future holds for the storied studio from Dom Matthews and the rest of the dev team.

    Most of the studio team are of a certain age which explains the mature feel it has. It's refreshing to have something that isn't made for a teenage audience, and I like the fact that they use mental health as a core part of the game. That's something everyone can relate to and was seen as taboo before, and still is to a certain extent. I'm glad Microsoft supported them and gave them the creative freedom to embark on that journey.

    Yes I've been anxiously awaiting I have a downloaded to my Xbox series X. I am now viewing this on CZcams, and I can't help but sit here and think to myself I wish there was a way that videos like this in detail of your art and craft and detailed creation could be attached to the game download.
    I believe if you set and watch this you would have a greater appreciation for the amount of time and great detail that is put into all these games for those who don't see videos like this and choose to be critical, negative which truly can affect the experience before you even press start. I am an artist as well as a drummer for 45 years and a performer, although I really don't experience direct push back with my craft it would be very difficult to digest.
    And the whole thing is you don't have to go searching for negativity. You can just have general interest in something and it comes your way across many feeds takes off like a wildfire.
    Anyways, keep up the incredible work five stars Yes, passion, stay driven!
