I listened to Archive 81 and overall, I liked it, but there's one thing that bugs me , in one of the episodes, the main character, Dan, found and befriended a mouse. The sound effect that they used for the mouse is so fake and comical. I hope this is deliberate because maybe down the line it's reveled that it was never a mouse, and it's just a squeaky toy that Dan found and started to talk to, showing his gradual mental deterioration . Because, yikes, otherwise.

Yeah, sfx can make or break the atmosphere, IMO. I listened to Return Home linked from the list that psychopomp posted, and the sfx that they used for creatures and voices is the cheesiest and stock that you can use and I am not even sure if this podcast is meant to be horror comedy or simply a badly-acted horror podcast because of it.

Limetown is probably the best serialized fiction podcast that I've listened to so far, (still in the middle of listening to Magnus Archives, which is also pretty good). It's extremely well-paced, got some great voice acting and voice design, and has a really interesting premise that delivered when you get to the reveal. So I second that recommend. My only nitpick is that I was hoping for (general spoiler for Limetown, don't mouse over it if you haven't finished it) more of a horror story rather than the science fiction bent. But the way they explained the disappearance of Limetown residences and why Limetown needed to be covered up is pretty drat good because of how mundane it is. It's good old fashioned human nature They are still working on Season 2, right?

Yeah, just did a bit of research myself, on the Limetown reddit, the creators also mentioned that they are working on an entirely new podcast, as well as that TV pilot, which should be good I suppose since these guys are obviously talented. EDIT Listening to Magnus Archive is freaking me out, in a good way. There just something about the way the narrator delivered the stories and the random nature of each of the stories that's getting to me. I consumed quite a few horror media (movies, games,etc) and not all of them get to me but when it does, it usually stay. The davidHalestorm fucked around with this message at 19:06 on Oct 25, 2016 |
