Persona 3 Reload Review Cut Segment

I found this sitting around on my computer and figured I should upload it here as a "behind the scenes" reward for you all. Sometimes when making videos, I get the urge to include a "music video" of sorts to act as a cherry on top. This is something that I have done a few times by now (mainly the No More Heroes & Xenoblade Chronicles videos) I was directly inspired by people like Rebel Taxi and Pyrocynical to try it out myself and they've been a lot of fun to work on however they take a lot of work and planning so I dont' do them often.

I originally planned on including one of these in the Persona 3 Reload video as it was a fairly long project that I spent months working on. I felt as though a video of this scale and length deserved something grand like that so I got to work chipping away at a music video to place at the end of the analysis. While I am quite happy with how it turned out, I ended up scrapping it from the video since I felt as though it was a little too "triumphant" for what the video was trying to say. Ultimately I decided to scrap it from the project but the rendered version still existed in my assets folder, so I decided to upload it here for you all to watch as a treat!

The sound design isn't perfect but the visuals and voice lines were finalized beforehand so you can still get the basic gist of what I planned on going for. Who knows, maybe if I liked the game more I would've actually included it in the video. But as of right now, this amv acts as a reminder of "what could have been"
