Last year I wrote a blog post about the origins of visual novels and how I believe the term is often misused in the West to classify games that are “Japanese adventure games”. I had originally thought of the idea as a video but I quickly realized that it would be a lot of work, especially since I didn’t know how to record gameplay footage at the time nor use any editing software outside of Windows Movie Maker, so I just made it a blog post instead.
However, this year, I made a resolution to teach myself some basic editing skills and turn my blog post into an informative video. After two months of work you have the video before you.
Hopefully you find it interesting and hopefully I didn’t get too many of my facts wrong. If I did let me know, I always enjoy learning more about the history of this genre.
Some of the programs I used to make the video were OBS Studio to record gameplay footage, Davinci Resolve for editing and Audacity for voice recording.
The video contains the following music composed by Chris Zabriskie:
"Out of the Skies Under the Earth"
"Candlepower"
"Chance Luck Errors in Nature Fate Destruction As a Finale"
"Virtues Inherited Vices Passed On"
"Is That You or Are You You"
"Cylinder Seven"
"CGI Snake"
"NirvanaVEVO"
"There's Probably No Time"
"A New Day in a New Sector"
And "Tilbury Fair” composed by Radix and LED
