Heavy is Dead but it's Animal Crossing New Horizons

[@BriefCasey795]

So the camera glitch that was used to make 99.8% of this video has finally returned as an actual feature in the latest patch, so I'm really pleased that those who reached out with #saveACFilm and the like had their efforts bear fruit! Though, at the same time, I guess I picked the weirdest time to try and see the video through, because while I did do some workarounds for some shots and they still turned out fine, the only one that I'd say that got screwed over was the bit at 1:16 with the decals of various things. Oh well, it's not too big of a deal considering the rest of the video and how well this vid's doing. That said, this vid's got 5K views at the time of this comment, wow. This is definitely my most successful non-GMod video to date! Thank for all the support, guys!

[@what8827]

😔

[@DeadHandtheSurvivor]

I actually made a little area dedicated to the legacy of Rick May in my town as a tribute, just a small grave with a bunch of items around it giving nods to his character roles and performances, that way, no matter how old I get, I can always go back to my town and remember the impact he had on my childhood when I was playing tf2 or Starfox 64. I even decided to have music that plays near the tribute and I thought the most fitting song to pick wasn't K.K. Waltz since there was more to his legacy than being Solider (though I do have the cover art of the song next to the grave), but Farewell since to me... that tribute was my way of saying farewell to such a talented man I wish I could say to him if I was able to know he was going to die... Plus, villagers will always sing to whatever's playing on the radio even if it's nowhere nearby so as a result, whenever a villager sings it will always be Farewell, as if even my villagers are saying goodbye to Rick as well even know they're just a bunch of 3d polygonal AIs but still, it's nice to imagine. Farewell Rick May... Farewell indeed.
