Didn't watch. Any black people hair?
Finally a video for my passion of video game hair
Sure this is nice, but ironically NetEase is the father mother fucker of copy 😶
Yes! Thank you for sharing this one!
The speaker covering dreads didn’t know what they were talking about, equating it to “streets” and “hip hop” which isn’t even a hundred years old when referring to the usage of it by folks of African ancestry is laughable as they’ve been using the hairstyle far longer.
I remember the first time really noticing cool hair physics and art in Alice: Madness Returns. Sure, it looked pretty weird and buggy, but the roughness and grunginess actually fit the aesthetics of the game.
great presentation!
Great video
