"The Witness"

Post by dandymcgee »

Jonathan Blow's new game comes out tomorrow. Anyone else been following this, and as excited as I am?

If you've been living under a rock, The Witness is a Myst-like atmospheric island puzzle exploration game. The music sounds incredible, the graphics are pleasant to look at, and the development team literally hired architects and landscapers to help polish the environment.

I realized after posting that mpv/youtube-dl had chosen the best quality available to play, which is some ridiculous resolution that I don't even think my eyes can see properly.

Holy shit.. this video has a 4K 60 fps version. :shock2:

*Goes back to rewatch in "IRL" quality*
Edit: Nevermind.. too many spoilers.. I had to close my eyes for the whole video.
