Mike StaubHOST
Yeah, it's a really fun game.
Mike StaubHOST
It's a real shame that the developer who I believe is Silicon Knights would go on to like... kind of fall apart they made like one more game after this that took a long time and it just didn't do well but Eternal Darkness was a really cool interesting game and it was scary in a way that like other games weren't scary before because it was like it had the elements of a psychological horror and which typically you would see in something like in like a murder mystery game.
Mike StaubHOST
Right.
Mike StaubHOST
And like a not maybe not.
FrankHOST
Mug head status.
FrankHOST
I have a mug of his from Silicon Knights, which he, like a collector of mugs, unless it's a double.
FrankHOST
I don't know if it's a double, maybe, Sean.
FrankHOST
When he left Silicon Knights, I asked, could I have this as a memento to remember you by? His programmer's mug that I believe his uncle got him, if I'm not mistaken.
FrankHOST
That's right.
FrankHOST
Yeah, it was my uncle's.
ConnorHOST
... we'll do some shout-outs.
ConnorHOST
Uh, Silicon Knights who did Eternal Darkness and-
NickHOST
Yep
ConnorHOST
...
AndrewHOST
Now, obviously, the story may not be amazing, but it's Chris Remo.
AndrewHOST
I don't know if that name means anything to you, but he... worked, I think, at Gamasutra, when Gamasutra was big, like when we were at Silicon Knights.
AndrewHOST
And then he went and worked on, I think, Firewatch.
AndrewHOST
And then those are the guys that got bought out by Steam, by Valve, and then helped on Half-Life Alyx.
Aaron LeachHOST
Remember
FishHOST
when Silicon Knights made good games?
Aaron LeachHOST
I do.
Aaron LeachHOST
They happened to have made the best one available for the GameCube.
Aaron LeachHOST
So, I mean, I'm actually... that...
Aaron LeachHOST
I...
Aaron LeachHOST
Silicon Knights' involvement actually piques my interest more than it deters it, so...
Aaron LeachHOST
Oh, I'm the opposite.
Scott JohnsonHOST
Right, right.
Scott JohnsonHOST
From Silicon Knights and Nintendo.
Scott JohnsonHOST
Nintendo was the publisher and also helped make it come to pass.
Scott JohnsonHOST
This was told across 2,000 years of time, this story.
8 MINS LATER
Scott JohnsonHOST
Anyway, go ahead.
Scott JohnsonHOST
Sorry.
Brian DunawayHOST
So Silicon Knights also, this is like the previous game they had was all the way back in 1996 with Blood Omen, Legacy of Kain, which I really did love.
Brian DunawayHOST
I love Legacy of Kain.
FrankHOST
I never do that when I play games.
FrankHOST
Like, when I used to be at Silicon Knights, the artists would be like...
FrankHOST
They'd walk through the game so slowly and, like, look at everything.
FrankHOST
Like, play the fucking game.
Brian DunawayHOST
Right, right
Scott JohnsonHOST
... uh, from Silicon Knights and Nintendo.
Scott JohnsonHOST
Nintendo, uh, was the publisher and also helped make it come to pass.
Scott JohnsonHOST
Uh, this was told across 2,000 years of time, this story, and you had 12 playable characters-
Scott JohnsonHOST
Um, well, no, it would've been E3 by then, 'cause '95 and on was E3.
Scott JohnsonHOST
Anyway, it, it presented well.
Brian DunawayHOST
