Everything in this video is entirely my opinion, art is subjective, yada yada yada.
Today we're discussing The Quarry, as was widely requested in the comments of my prior video on Until Dawn. This video also contains some discussion around the wider Supermassive games library, and speculation around the upcoming Dead by Daylight tie-in game.
I have been a longtime fan of the telltale method of interactive movies, but The Quarry is not without flaws. I aim to understand what makes it worse than it's predacessor, Until Dawn, whilst also aiming to give credit where credit is due. Unlike the prior video in this series of mine, I am looking at gameplay alongside with story, although this is mostly an analysis of the game from a writing perspective.
Similar to the prior video, this is equal parts retrospective, character analysis, and a character ranking/a tier list.
