That video and youtuber seems so fucking tedious, but I loved and miss Psygnosis so fucking much I'm going to watch it. The only other single developer with as many good games who's mundane story I'd watch be told by a monotoned tedious unwatchable youtuber who I loved and miss more is probably Stamper era Rareware.

Yes, I'll tolerate some dogshit content out of respect for developers as good as Psygnosis were... They PUBLISHED some absolute fucking garbage over the years, but the closest to actually developing a bad game was psybadek. even average stuff like Krazy Ivan and Colony Wars, you couldn't call bad... I'm sad now. I'm gonna go dry my eyes with the instruction manual from Overboard!
