In The Flood (Raya & The Last Dragon)

❛❛ Who can take my hand in the flood? ❜❜
✎ I did say I wanted to make another Raya vid after that first one. Here we are.
So, for the past 6 months, I was working on a contracted VFX project, with very long hours and tedious work to boot. To keep myself entertained while working on this, I started watching a bunch of video game campaigns since they are long and not to distracting....usually. One of the games I discovered was Horizon Forbidden West. After playing it for an hour, this beautiful cinematic opening credit scene with this unexpectedly soulful song played. You can watch it if you like here in 4K: • Horizon Forbidden West...
I was hooked before getting to this part of the game, but the melancholy song struck a cord with me....especially with all the pain I've gone through this past year alone. I've never seen a game with so many cut scenes that I actually WANTED to watch. It was like watching a tv show waiting each day for this guy to play through this long, gorgeous game! (It had recently been released).
The lore/story reminded me of Kumandra, but the main character (Aloy) is so much like Raya. (Even her voice!) She's a loner, an outcast, but a warrior, with long hair, and feels like she must carry the weight of the world on her shoulders all on her own. I didn't really have time to make a video but this song would not let me go so I finally caved in and made it.....I finished it right around completing the VFX project too. What a relief! Maybe now I can edit more since that's not sucking up all my free time.
If I had a PS5 I'd play this game. The mechanics, graphics, animations, stories.....so many hours I could waste. Guess its better I don't.
