Very interesting way of telling a story. Kind of like several friends telling you, personally, about a story they heard, and they keep interrupting eachother but it adds to the beauty of storytelling. So far I'm really intrigued!

@torresgio6148 Год назад

My thoughts exactly

@BrknSoul Год назад

It's kind of like they've all heard the same story but from different sources. They each have heard details that perhaps they others haven't. It's quite an interesting and engaging form of storytelling.

@benjaminandrew9057 Год назад

Yeah was going to comment about the round table narration. Definitely different.

I was not sure what to expect. Once CritRole made me aware of Midst, I decided not to check out their content to go in blind in this collaboration. I was immensely drawn into the story telling, and the voice actors are fantastic. I'm very intrigued and will absolutely go support Midst to see what other stories they have to tell. Thanks CritRole, and Midst, very fun product.

@levil3409 11 месяцев назад

Yes, it's a cool idea! It kinda reminds me of the light slowing down over Discworld because of its strong magic fields, so there can be pockets of day left as the sun sets, because the magic is holding back the light

@disasterjones5798 Год назад

I don't know how possible it would be given youtube's limited subtitling tools, but I'd love to see a CC option that includes descriptions of the soundscape as well. The effects bring a lot to the experience, even just a few scenic tags (i.e. children laughing, town crier barking indistinctly, heavy wet footfalls, etc) would greatly supplement the already impressive narration.

@ashusikildigir7170 Год назад

As I understand CR contracts out for Sub's. So kinda up to what they are willing to ask for and pay for.

@disasterjones5798 Год назад

@@ashusikildigir7170 I actually saw on the more recent episodes that they have intercuts of environmental descriptions, music titles, and beat changes between the dialogue captions! They can be kind of hard to miss in some places, and might need to loop back to catch em if you're not a fast reader, but it's certainly a substantive upgrade regardless. The crew they contracted did a good job with the limits of the medium. The real issue is that the mechanics aren't there under the hood yet on YT's end. Once we can have multiple text channels per sequence, that'll make captioning and alt text a lot easier to integrate.

@TartarusHimself Год назад

I really like it too, it almost feels like they’re all reading the same script and it’s being cut together, but not quite

@Cheesegoddess Год назад

Yeah! It really makes it feel like they are telling you a story from their heads and not from a script. Like one is going, oh so this thing happened and another adds in oh yeah and keep in mind it looks like this, with another going also make sure you remember how this goes too with the first just going on with the what they had to say PLUS now with the other things said too. Made it feel more natural!

@DeathsPit00 Год назад

I like stories with strange worlds that don't follow logic as we understand it. Stories like House of Leaves and The Death Gate Cycle. A world where day and night move as separate "entities" rather than a Sun based orbital cycle definitely falls into that category. Very Interesting.

@claudiapieters2443 Год назад

At first I was thrown off by the fact that three people follow up on each other so quickly as they tell the story, but it actually grew on me and by the end of the episode I enjoy how these three different voices come together. It is hectic but brings so much colour to story telling in general. The background music is both soothing and intriguing not to mention that the visuals in this episode are beautiful with so much detail and colour, moving items that keep catching my eye during the story telling. I am very pleasantly surprised by this concept and I will definitely watch/listen the next episode!

@VelvetCake423 Год назад

right? to me it feels like three friends who'd just come back from some wacky adventure filling you in on their shenanigans over a campfire

@shawnmayo8210 Год назад

I couldn't really get into it. It felt more like they were interrupting each other than a single voice from three narrators. The cadence was off. They didn't really continue their paragraphs as though it was the same message. I'll give another episode a shot but I'm not really sold so far.

I already have so many question and am so pulled into this world. The way they jumped from a speed beat narrative of the town, where you had to hold on or else loose it all, to the intrinsic narrative of the desert, going over and over and over into the same element making even a piece glass on a shelf the most interesting thing in the world. Oh man. I love it already

@abaddonarts1129 Год назад

I love how intimate the dialogue of this is while not going off into explanations or tangents! The world exists, everyone there knows what they're doing (for the most part, Lark seems to be at least confident) and the horrors of the landscape remind me of The Magnus Archives or Welcome to Nightvale. The whole thing has an aura of tense air but also the narration is a calm declaration of what is happening as they are not the people in the story but merely sharing the events as they happen. Also the little bits of humor really made me chuckle ("It's cow-like. It shares features with cows, namely eyes.") Definitely going to become my next major binge this weekend!

Theater of the mind is a wonderful thing, as words spread in the air to then be absorbed into our ears we as individuals take what is given and create what we hear in our head. Everyone hears the same thing but in your mind it's different, if you can draw or if everyone drew what they heard it would all come out different even though we all heard the same thing.....I'm enjoying this so much...I really needed this.

@SharkyShocker Год назад

This seems so fun! To be honest, at first I thought the method was a "Finish This Sentence" style. One narrator perhaps sends a part of the story as a message to another narrator, that narrator sends a continuation message to the next, and so on. Thus, the narrators trying not to make the story too wacky while just making it wacky enough to try and throw off the next narrator just to see what they come up with. That doesn't seem to be the case, but even so that same feeling is contrived and it's SO fun. Oh also, THE MUSIC IS AMAZING
