15s | some lines for this character that I'm |
18s | voicing in |
24s | stormgate what in God's name have we |
28s | done f |
31s | power either way your world will |
36s | fall his name is Wars um he's a badass |
40s | and Wars is many things but he's not |
42s | human um so that that just adds a really |
44s | interesting element he's a lot of fun |
48s | when he's being clicked on it's more of |
50s | like a what do you want you know it's |
53s | maybe that's a little bit smaller and |
54s | then when it's like |
56s | the F like that that's more projected |
59s | that comes from d diaphragm is more |
61s | gutur |
62s | roll getting to play a character that |
65s | first of all you don't need to be in |
66s | like hours and hours of Prosthetics to |
68s | have to play you know you kind of just |
70s | take one look at him and what he's |
72s | wearing and you're like okay I think he |
74s | sounds I think he you know and then you |
76s | you start to get into it and and there's |
77s | like such a joy and |
80s | Discovery I do not view War as a |
82s | competition or a game and Wars he's an |
85s | aggressive dude and he's really angry |
87s | and and we need him to be scary and uh |
89s | and and there's you know something kind |
91s | of demonic about him too so it |
93s | definitely you know tends to come from |
97s | here man I've been a fan of RTS my whole |
100s | life RTS was some of the biggest games |
103s | that anyone could play when I was a kid |
106s | really in the late '90s early 2000s was |
108s | kind of like a golden era for that whole |
110s | genre you know you had Starcraft you had |
112s | brood war of course my favorites but you |
114s | had Age of Empires you know You' Command |
116s | and Conquer and so many others you know |
118s | first game of Starcraft I played was |
119s | when I was like like 13 years old I mean |
122s | the last game of Starcraft I played was |
124s | like last week um so when we heard that |
127s | you know storm gate was happening and |
129s | that it was so many of the same people |
131s | who made the games that I loved growing |
133s | up and wor shipped in a lot of ways um I |
136s | got |
137s | excited there's so much I love about the |
139s | RTS genre they're strategy games first |
141s | and foremost they're these giant |
143s | elaborate games of Chess you play top |
146s | down you control an army and you get to |
149s | see these like awesome battles happening |
151s | and you you get to micromanage your |
153s | units and you get to control your |
154s | resources and there's so many places |
156s | that your brain needs to be at the same |
158s | time and there's so many different |
159s | skills that go into it it was an |
162s | incredible experience visiting Frost |
163s | giant I mean first of all you know you |
164s | don't visit video game studios every day |
167s | and it was just so cool stepping into |
169s | the office seeing so much of the artwork |
171s | and the characters kind of starting to |
173s | come together the units and and |
175s | everything and then actually getting to |
177s | sit down and play it felt good to play |
179s | test of the game it's already shaping up |
181s | to be super |
182s | promising has all of the Dynamics and |
184s | the features that you would expect of an |
186s | RTS and of the team of that |
188s | caliber it was like a dream come |
191s | true I played against one of my best |
193s | friends Jason and I won the scrimmage |
196s | which um I'll never let Him Live down |
198s | until the day that he dies but uh it |
201s | felt good to get the dub they had a |
203s | trophy for |
206s | me it was uh first Asian man to beat |
209s | storm |
211s | gate and it's sitting on my desk because |
214s | it's one of my proudest |
216s | possessions I think what's most exciting |
218s | about stormgate is that it was made by |
221s | people who love RTS it's not driven by |
225s | by money or profit it's driven by love |
227s | and it's driven by art and craft in a |
229s | way I think anytime you make those types |
232s | of decisions you're really set up for |
233s | Success because the passion the passion |
235s | is |
237s | there and look the genre that we all |
240s | love you know has been kind of Mia for |
243s | the last few years and now it's poised |
245s | to make a comeback in a really really |
247s | big and amazing way with stormgate so I |
249s | hope that you all join me in playing and |
251s | giving it a shot when it comes |
