One(?) of the chroma channel data has incorrect vertical offset. I'm
not consistent about subtracting points for this, but that doesn't
mean the problem isn't there.
Comments:
Episode 9 continues with the historical events. It's so beautifully...
upsetting. I can see why this game is so highly regarded.
Episode 10 is the most clever way to do flashback I've ever seen.
It not only serves as a flashback, it adds extra information in such a
way that it's subtle and undisturbing of the original view. It
doesn't even reuse the animation very much because the events are
actually slightly different. While at it, we also see different
angles of the past events, too. I am impressed to no end!
