Episode Notes:

This video is structured like a lorethrough, but with an emphasis on close-reading. We'll be examining background details and trying to piece together the narrative, while also critiquing the successes and failures of INSIDE visual storytelling.

Your donations go a long way, even if it's just a dollar. If enough people give, I might be able to do this full time and get some serious production value in these movies.

A Declaration:
Welcome to the Gameological Dig, a channel devoted to playing games with obtuse and interesting stories. The aim of this channel is to treat these game worlds like an archeological site, meant to be unearthed and studied, so that we may better understand their plots, characters and themes.
