If any of you here have specific stage requests for our bonus video, just post them here for a chance to have it featured in the video! And thanks again to everyone who watched the analysis :)
The amount of work that GX does for Youtube videos scares me. How is any of that sustainable?
Lots of flexibility and freedom outside of time sensitive content. Seems to be working out just fine if you ask me!
Nice videos, but I still hard to really understand what he is talking about!
But the stages does look even better when zoom in
Sorry to hear that you had trouble understanding the explanations. If you have any specific questions, just let me know and I'll be happy to help.
bandai namco did some magic onto Smash Bros 4 Wii U, which is why this port looks better than most
Hahaha
I legitimately hope that
brainchild becomes more of a GX regular. We could really use some more Nintendo focused, in-depth tech analyses
I don't think you should be too concerned about that :)
Digital Foundry can only do so much, and I quite miss their very in depth look at developer techniques(versus just performance and resolution) on a lot of games. Here's hoping he takes a look at releases games, especially when Nintendo has more graphics intensive titles coming up.
Digital Foundry do a fantastic job at evaluating performance metrics AND explaining how developers implement new and old techniques to bring their games to life. I think the perception that they only focus on performance and image quality is because these things tend to dominate the conversations of their audience, so they necessarily cover their bases on that front.
I do not want to legitimize the notion that there can only be one bona fide tech analyst channel (not saying that you're suggesting this, but I know some people are thinking it). If you think about the scientific community - a community entirely based on objective analyses - it would be preposterous to suggest that the findings of only one scientist could be acceptable. That is why we have peer-reviewed studies, to remain as objective as possible; it's part of the scientific method for a reason.
It is very healthy and important to have many independent sources for technical analyses, and I'm sure DF is happy to co-exist with GX, as I've mentioned before.
Having said that, I do think the more Nintendo-focused content at GX effectively carves out a different audience than DF's audience, with possibly different interests and expectations, so we have to make content accordingly.
I also hope we get to keep working with Brainchild, all of us were big fans of his BotW technical dissection here on Era.
And you of all people know that I don't plan on going anywhere, XD
