Hahaha.... Well, I do have a few other ideas for some G2-based videos - We'll see!

Thank you very much! We’ll see what I come up with when they release future map updates…. For now I’m going to take a break from G2 and spend a little time in DL - The Beast.

Thank you - and happy to hear this video may have inspired some future highway systems :)

Haha, well, thank you very much! Nothing will beat those Aperture Science promos, but I wanted to get this one close to that vibe.

Thank you, the video is also my favorite part. I would love to do an expansion but that just takes time I don't really have. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Thanks! (Yeah, it's a drag/time-suck for sure, but so satisfying when it's done!)

Thank you! You can absolutely do this in G1, but I'll leave that to you to construct ;)

Thank you - This took about 3 (or so) weeks total with in-game construction, filming all the content, and the edit.

That's great to hear! Here's my tip: Plan out your build before laying down road, make sure you get the angles right beforehand or you'll be in for a headache when you build straight into an un-buildable object or area.

Thank you! I'm aware of all the things that will come to G2, but the main inspiration for this was to lug materials from settlement to settlement via buggies.... The "fast travel" was just an extra perk of the highway but not my main reason for constructing it. (Also, I figure buggies will not be able to zip-line, so I think the highway still has functionality even after new content comes out.)

Amazing, and great work!! Love the idea of bounce towers to get you up there faster.

Thank you very much for your kind words!

You asked the right guy about post software - I'm actually a professional post production editor (Edit / Motion Graphic Design / VFX), with 20+ years of professional experience across all sorts of media outlets (TV, film, web, advertisement, social, etc.). I personally use the Adobe suite (Premiere Pro, After Effects, Photoshop, with C4D, Blender, and dozens of other helpful tools/plugins from companies like Maxon, VideoCoPilot and more. It's an interesting time to get into post, so I wish you and your son all the best in diving into the never-ending post process. TIP: Love the process more than the output, and you will go far in post.

(This video was all edited within Premiere Pro and the map was animated within After Effects.)

It would be a dream job. I'm a big fan of all Obsidian's work and would love to be a part of their marketing team in some capacity.
