THE TWILIGHT BRIGADE - Strife's Sanctum Podcast #40 - .hack//Roots *Spoilers*
I would like to announce that once the transition is complete, these podcasts will be moved to my second channel, Strife's Sanctum. Link is below. This will be done to keep my weekly podcast projects and daily gaming videos separate. That should cut down on people getting overwhelmed by notifications especially while Yakuza is being completed. All previous uploads are not yet done, but should be by this week. Once it is, this video will go up on that channel as well.

As for this video, it is Part 3 of my look into project dot hack. The World R:2 now exists, and it begins with a relaunched anime that focuses on events that transpire before G.U. I think Roots is a decent attempt at recapturing SIGN's magic. The main issue is its lead character, the concepts at play that surround him are never explored, and a good 12-13 episode premise gets over extended to the typical 26-episode length with little payoff. However, watching this is essential to getting how G.U. works. I still consider it useful viewing.
From next week on, all Strife's Sanctum podcasts (and reuploads of monthly Bokksu videos) will appear on this new channel. This will be done to separate the game uploads from the podcast uploads. Each of the 40 current uploads should be their now.
