I highly recommend listening to the original. it isn't as crisp as the Xbox version but the lyrics are so deep and it's the Blues which fits into all eras especially now more than ever. It gives me a sense of purpose and makes me realise that we all suffer bereavement and go through the dark night of the soul and if humanity stand together we can make any future reality possible@@Mimiccry

"In Georgia folklore, the Altamaha-ha (or Altie) is a legendary creature, alleged to inhabit the myriad small streams and abandoned rice fields near the mouth of the Altamaha River (after which it is named) in southeastern Georgia. Sightings are particularly reported around Darien and elsewhere in McIntosh County."

As a born and raised Arkansas resident, I completely agree with this. I just hope they somewhat involve Arkansas or some other neighboring states, you know? Because like you said, the south is RICH with folklore and history. Whether it’s the backwoods or the bayous, people always have a story to tell as long as there’s someone willing to listen.

@UrMom-bb2mi 9 ай бұрын

See, I don’t know if the newer generation knows this, but we call this stop motion because Claymation popularized it, which existed far before spider man had movies. Why do you think that into the spider verse invented not having a smooth frame rate? This game looks nothing like into the spider verse. No cartoon effects, no 2d animation except for the title but that doesn’t count. I love that movie too but it wasn’t even the first movie/tv show to start doing this, many smaller studios had done 2d/3d animation before, and this game is based on claymation, one of the first types of animation.
