I finally got to watching your first Bannerfall VOD today, it was my first time ever watching your content and my goodness was i impressed.
First off, Iād love to talk about your cinematic backstory of Kitty, I absolutely loved it, and even went back to watch it again. The builds are lovely, voice acting astonishing and the details make me want to SCREAM. As a neurodivergent goober, and also as a writer Iāve come to appreciate details.
Obviously, as you mentioned in the VOD, the skin colour armour, the redstone in the shelf, itās all so well thought out. I noticed something dripping from the drip stone, which was an orange colour, so I assume lava? Not sure, but if it was lava, even if not intentional, it makes such an amazing metaphor about the possibility of the burning pain of transforming or even just the mental pain she would have to go through as this happened.
āThe first emotion I felt was shame,ā is such a beautiful quote, especially because of how real this is, especially in women/afab people, and their history. Itās feels somewhat empowering in a way, because it voices our everyday struggles as women/afabs.
I would love to continue yapping about the cinematic, but Iād also love to get to the rest of the content teehee.
of course, we have the sillyās. Your interactions with Owen were so funny to watch and I especially loved when he was attempting to teach you the game. The irony of you winning was even funnier.
I know you didnāt interact with people that much, but every time you did was so fun to watch, and even when you werenāt and you were just sneaking around i found myself engaged the whole time, when I usually canāt sit and watch something for longer than 10 minutes.
Your characters abilities also are so fun, but also make so much sense, and are very cool mechanics, especially the silent footsteps, (although I did find myself going crazy, always thinking my headphones disconnected when there was no sound,) as well as the āmouses.ā
The soggy kitty counter was fun, still wondering how you managed to fall in 28 times lmao and also just the silly things youād say, like speaking in third person, calling Owen big kitty, etc.
Iām sorry about yapping SO MUCH and the fact itās all so jumbled, I just had so much to say lol. I canāt wait to continue watching your POV of Bannerfall and to see how it plays out :)
ABSOLUTELY DONT APOLOGIZE FOR YAPPING !!!!!!! this is so so cool i really am an analyser at heart and this all up my alley
im super glad you enjoyed Kitty so far and were able to enjoy the moments even when i wasnt interacting with anyone n just being sneaky!!
and to answer your question about the dripping, yes in minecraft that is infact lava (it was the closest color to the resin i had on the floor ! in my head while building it i wanted it to be sort of like a manifestation of magic itself or a conductor or something... ! some sort of magic essence which makes the wizard's powers manifest stronger ?
it also just added some visual interest when taking the shots :) but i like your interpretation of it and i totally love any time when someone will make their own interpretations of my creations ! it feels special and it kind of is a window to someones soul sometimes ahha idk its so ! human ! to do ... very fun very cool !!!
tysm for sending me this ask i really enjoyed reading it and to anyone else who has an analysis totally feel free to send in an inbox OR make a post (or a google doc link if ur # serious about it HAHA); either way im sure ill see it at some point :)
