I haven't to be honest! Until now. Miraculous that I haven't, seeing all the works he's been in.

I gave you a "hint" about five posts up....lol....

There are some very cool details in this video like using the new pinnacle peaches skin instead of the old one. It was a nice easter egg.

Almost two months later and this video STILL gives me goosebumps each time I listen to it.

Thanks!!!

This is my favorite thing.  Can't stop watching it.  This might be the greatest game-related thing I've ever seen that isn't actually a game or part of a game.  A work of art.

Seriously, I've never been a "fanboy" of any game or developer.  It's always just been an entertainment company/entertainment consumer relationship.  For the first time in my life I think I can actually call myself a fanboy.  Proudly.  You guys have something special going.

Been a long time Long Dark lover, but had to make an account just to say this was insanely beautiful. Really inspires me to think of the character we play during Survival. Who knows what they were like before all this happened?

THAT. WAS. INCREDIBLE!

The woman sitting on the stairs gave me chills. I'm never going to look at frozen corpses in-game the same way again.

Waiting for full-length film

Excellent work, script and photography...  It catches the whole feel of the game... Quite touching TBH...

It's amazing!

That would be so cool!

Watching this so many times never makes it lose a bit of the first impression. Just like the game itself

Now perhaps I missed something listed earlier, I don't know... so I am just going to ask.

Is there any chance that this wonderful short film might be available for download?

I know, I can see it anytime on Hinterland's channel on YouTube and things like that... but I bought game's score/soundtrack and I love all of it... and would really love to add this to my collection as well.  I mean I would absolutely pay money for a copy I could have on my hard drive.

Not at the moment - but thanks for the suggestion.

Very well then...  Please let us know if this is ever a possibility, I would love to support/contribute to your company and projects in any way I can.

Thank you. The soundtrack is available on Steam and Bandcamp, if you don't already have it - and we also have a few merch items in our store.

That is really well done. Lots of detail and heart on display. Kind of gets my indy filmmaker juices flowing again. (Alas, I live down south- so a lack of snow would shut down production indefinitely). Is this related to the possible film we've heard of or is this it's own wonderful thing?

[DirtyMadcap]

Got to give props again, we were lucky to have Christopher Plummer to narrate this.  RIP.

Time for another revival of this thread.
Are there any updates on this rumored film? Will there ever be any? Read that there's plans for it, but that was back in 2016-2017. It's now 2022.

[Luca Loquax]

From what I understand Hinterland's big Basket-O-Projects got 2020'd right along with everyone and everything else and they are in the process of playing catch-up.

Hinterland has time and again demonstrated that they are perfectly happy to take all of the time they need to do it properly the first time and give us the best possible finished product.

My best guess is maybe around March or so we can expect Raph and Dev's to give us another juicy morsel as to what lies ahead and I can't wait!  

Hooray for Raph and Devs!
