Okey doke, I think I'm happy enough with this to call it a final cut. I'll get the HD version up on my Youtube in a day or two, but wanted to upload the finished version here first. The music is a track from the end of Disco Elysium 'Precinct 41 Major Crime Unit' and I've just been wanting to use it on something for a little while. Maybe one day I'll make another gmv to a song with lyrics. (I've had 30% of Cal video set to Line of Fire by Junip sitting in my projects folder for months now lol)
Anyway, I wanted this video to specifically be about Cal's growing exhaustion with the fight and his sense of alienation from the rest of the Mantis crew, and the way that it presented this sort of perfect storm for Bode to slip right under his defenses. Survivor gives us a Cal who's starving for support and validation, which of course just makes Bode's inevitable turn just cut even deeper. My initial review of Survivor was just a bunch of keysmashing at my bff followed by 'he's just so exquisitely sad 10/10'
