FaceRig – A furry’s wet dream (about Dan’s video)

I haven’t been playing Guild Wars 2 in awhile, ever since being a bit disgusted how I geared Beniee up. I kind of know how to fix it by writing down what pieces that need to be improved, but I’m too lazy to do it. 😛
Oh, also.. I discovered that the soundtrack is on Youtube. Very happy for this. Though said soundtrack has been on Youtube for as long as the game has existed(2012). Found the cool music that plays during the 3rd part of the airship in the final Level 80 Personal Story (the dragon attacks). Also found the ending music (titled ‘Fear Not This Night’). Such a lovely song, after what you’ve been through.

In other news(and the point of this post), the day before yesterday (the 4th), I decided to re-add Dan to my Twitter feed. From what I’ve seen, he’s stopped rambling about losing money and more about discussing gaming (and other weird things he says). He mentioned that he worked on something that took a long time, and wanted us to give him lots of likes for it.
It showed up yesterday, and I was not prepared for what I saw. It started off like any normal video (with the Nerd3 logo), then for about 30 minutes…. it had him doing “voiceovers” for several strange characters. We’re talking a red Panda, a Cat, a wolf in a trenchcoat, a dragon(yes, even that), and even Satan.

For the entire video, it was basically himself being as random as can be, talking about a pletheora of topics. The cutest one was when he was a Cat, and talking about the whole Cats VS Dogs thing. And at the end, his ‘advice’ was.. “don’t be a dog”. lol

I could not stop going “WHAT THE SHIT?!?!?” when watching. But at the end, it was… beautiful! Best. video. EVER!!
So what is ‘FaceRig’? First off, it’s not a game, it’s an application. I don’t have it, but you basically get to use your webcam (if you had one) to say things. And you can use these characters to say them back. And it is very life-like. If you blink, they will. If you wave your hands, they will. What you do, they will do. It’s very cute, and it’s only $20.
However, I don’t see it being worth the price on getting a webcam that I’ll never use for anything else. Still, really cool concept. I just wanted to say this with you guys.
