SERIOUS LORE ANALYSIS 3
Added 2018-04-27 05:22:19 +0000 UTC
Hey all!
New video is out! This one took a long time to make and we're pretty happy with it. It's something of an...uh...it's something. Check it out!
In a few days there'll be a special patron-stream with Shannon and Eric to discuss it, and also I'll try to put out some of the making-of stuff that got shot in the process of making all this. I'll post here when we have a date/time.
And for those of you who want a PROPER sonic 2 analysis, well...Hareton Splimby Will Return.
I lost it when you asked the creator what angle to stand at to best view "Loss," and he bans you from the forum.

I am glad that the patreon money we send you are used for printing such magnum opus.

HBomb, this was excellent! Pushed me over the edge to (finally) become a patron, so thanks for all the great work :)

I'm so glad I saved this for after finals, it's so good it cleansed me of the stress. Very, VERY good one. <3

This is phenomenal work you've done here. I don't regret a single cent I give you each month. You truly deserve it. Keep up the great work, I'm really proud of you.

This is seriously your best video yet. Thank you so much HBomb!

I figured I'd write something more substantive here, since I saw that you were nervous about this on twitter:
This is my favorite video by you, and I've seen all of them. (Except the Lisa one because I want to play the game first but I haven't had time but I've heard it's so good.)
A bit about me: I used to like CAD. I try to lie to myself and convince myself I wasn't but it's hard to deny I read it for two years, and I was an active reader when Loss happened. I was mystified, like a lot of other people. But what you're saying in this resonates with me a lot. I was a part of that culture, for better or worse, and I've pretty much actively tried to distance myself from that and deny it instead of actually thinking about what that meant about myself at that time. It's a lot more tempting to deny being an obnoxious teenage gamer shit than reflect on the cultural implications of that.
So that message aside, I loved the video. It was funny (best moment: the CAD parody at the end. Took me a second to get it but I started howling after I realized it. Second best was the giant canvas reveal of Loss.) It was surprisingly artistic, some of those woods shots were downright beautiful. And it was weird in all the right ways. I loved the intertwining plot.
Like I said, I took the time because I saw you were nervous and I figured I'd write a somewhat longer comment on it. On here, since Youtube is terrible, but also it's really hard to write longer comments on here. I can't even see what I'm typing right now.
In short, good work. Looking forward to the next one.

I feel like I've been reborn, and I'm not sure I wanted to.

2018-04-27 17:24:41 +0000 UTC
Whoa, this is some next level make me feel bad about my past views stuff. I love it.
I remember when CAD posted that comic. My wife had gone through a miscarriage at the same time. I was pretty pissed because I read comics to chuckle, not feel bad for the rest of the work day. That was the last of CAD I read.

I dunno, the non-sequiturs were getting a bit distracting from his point. By all means HBomb should be free to explore and play with these elements, but lets not forget the whole purpose of these exercises is for him to explain his message.

This was the first thing I watched today shortly after waking up and it ran me over like a steamroller

Hbomb's video essays become more and more arthouse movies...
yes more please

This was the Homestuck of Hbomberguy videos. Great Job.
2018-04-27 12:12:14 +0000 UTC
Do that. I am personally wondering whether the last scene implied that Hbomb is the miscarried fetus of CAD's main character. A tad disturbing in several different ways. Yet I am intrigued to see where this train is going. Choo. Choo.

Absolutely awesome job! <3

I’m here for literally anything you got tbh. I loved your scanline video and obviously your Sherlock masterpiece but everything you make has a passion behind it that fascinates me, no matter what subject it is or my own personal investment. I hope you make whatever content you want to provide and keep going for as long as you’re willing, so if that means no more gaming videos i’m happy to watch whatever else you have up your sleeve.

I want to congratulate the whole creative team behind this (including my fellow Patrons of the Arts) for... giving birth... to this beautiful, smelly, in parts pixelatedly brilliant mind-baby.

That was fascinating, confusing, terrifying and very insightful!

For real HBomb, You're the most visible left voice in gaming and the medium needs more people like you to progress. But if you're set on quitting gaming good on you. I'll watch whatever silly shit you upload even if it's about soy and not Sonic.

Now let me chew on that for a day or two. 👍
2018-04-27 07:36:51 +0000 UTC
I don't usually leave comments on things, but I just wanted to say that this was really good. It's such a great encapsulation of the way you approach media, and I can't wait to see however the fuck you try to follow it up.

Earnest H.Bomb & drowning-in-a-sea-of-madness-spewing-forth-from-his-own-head H.Bomb are both my favorite H.Bomb. And this video is peak that. Thanks for being rad.

This is the greatest art that ever arted, I love every moment of it, even the moments that are not times in the video, like when I pause, and reread the title 5 times in a row and then say "WOW"
