Quick Look: Old Man's Journey

The rite of passage has arrived!

Whoa, Abby/Alex QL? That's rad!

Got the A team on this one.

This game seems super relaxing.

Good job Abby!

What a calming QL.

Is the ocean a cruel mistress?

I'm like, I like this QL. Like, Am i right? Like?

I haven't played the game but from the quicklook I don't understand why this is a game and not an animated short. Seems like there's a lot of fluff to make it longer to justify it as a game to the detriment of the story.

The secret Life of Walter Mitty is much better film than I expected from Ben Stiller (I like many of his films but in an amusing way - this one had a bit MORE to it)

That train song is my summer jam.

@julesodies: I'll take "like" over Jason or Jeff going "so this fuckin, uh, fuckin thing is right fuckin here, fucking... fuck, dude"

@schnoo: the same question can be raised for a variety of different "walking simulator" type games.

I'm guessing the wife is a mermaid?

I watched "The Secret Life of Walter Mitty" three times on a flight from Anchorage to Houston. I don't know if the coach seat or the twelve hour flight were worse than the film. It was pretty bad. Also they had "Lego Movie", which the kid in front of me fell asleep to, and I watched without sound at least twice.

This game looks like it's gonna make me cry at the end.

Great job Abby!

Is this Fracture?

@humanity: True ;) . And didnt notice any 'like, like , like' during beastcasts or playdates so I guess just nerves for her first QL.

I, too, would like to marry the sea.

The sea the sea is calling me

Ia. Ia.

Thanks for showing this off Abby! The old man and the sea in vidja game form!

It's not legal to marry the Ocean in Canada yet but when it happens... Atlantia and I are going to Taco Bell!

Abby's deck writing shows great potential

It's official, Abby is the best

Pleasantly surprised to hear Abby in a quick look! Didn't expect that at all due to her more production-centric position, but I hope there's many more to come! Great job :D

Thank you Abby and Alex for a very entertaining quick look :]

Twelve hours from Seattle to Houston? Did they fly around the world to get there?

Totally thought Abby was thinking of "The Royal Tennenbaums"

Nice surprise to have Abby in a QL! Wasn't expecting it. She did good too. She has a nice voice/cadence for this. You know, like sometimes you hear people on certain podcasts and their voice is like.. stabbing your ears or blowing out your car speakers.

Alex/Abby team gets my /thumbsup

I'm glad to see Abby continuing the trend of Giant Bomb's production team being capable of splitting off and forming their own video game site without missing a step.

Great QL, but it sorely needs more references to Brandy, truly a fine girl.

wait how did it take a 12 hour flight to get from Seattle to Houston?

@zaldar: My bad... Anchorage, AK

@underdonk: I also would like to know how this worked. I fly Seattle to Detroit to visit family in Ohio, which is about the same as Seattle to Houston, and that's a little over 4 hours. Where the hell did the other 8 come from? Was there a hostage situation?

The artwork in this game looks beautiful.

Dropping Ponyo and Studio Ghibli in like that gets respect in my book :)

This game looks like a nice thing to wind down a night with.

This game looks adorable as heck.

Wasn't expecting Abby on the QL but it was a nice surprise, great job!

And the artstyle of this game looks really good. Glad that it's on mobile, I might give it a try. Kinda reminds me of another neat little iOS game called Love You To Bits (btw, I heard that game is coming out on PC soon, I hope @ybbaaabby and @vinny can do a QL of it, I think they might enjoy it)

@dothtm: Anchorage to Houston is still like only a 6 hour flight. Did they charge you like a taxi and take the long way?

Yay, more Abby!

the small talk about patchy beards - i dont have a perfect beard but i do have an out of place jaw. let me tell you, people react 100% better to a patchy beard than a bad jaw, lol.

This game looks adorable.

I haven't watched Old Man Logan yet, but this isnt what I expected.

Quick Look Ahoi

Trains are the best.

The art in this game is beautiful to look at

Where Abby leads, we all will follow. Oh, and this game looks very relaxing so I will follow her and Alex there. :)

Abby should be in more videos, such a soothing voice.

A & A
