"Someone had to make the hard choices, the ones that would save us, but we couldnt allow those choices to define us once the storm subsided, thats why I allowed myself to become the villain, so a hero could lead us to a brighter future without the shame of the price we paid for survival... You are that hero now. May you give this people the happiness I couldnt."

I thought the last frames where he smiles & the temperature is high was to symbolize his sacrifice. Not his execution.

This game has a way of meddling with your morals. Is easy, at the first stages, to stay on a moral path. Give education to the children, give more rations to hard workers, bury our dead and assure not only survival, but a humanitarian lifestyle. But then the true winter arrives. There's no food, the temperature goes lower from the stable -20 to -40 and -60 there's never enough coal to make it trough the night and every little piece of resource counts. Then, then after several failed attempts, your heart hardens. You begin to take harsher and harsher measures, you begin to work every citizen to the death and use them even after death. The city must survive.

Sometimes the world doesn’t need another hero. Sometimes, it needs a new kind of monster; someone willing to make the hard choices, and take the fall

I’ve never played this game, but I absolutely ADORE this animatic. It’s beautiful.

I like that last scene. That smile that shows the weight of responsibility falling off his shoulders as he lets the next person take over, and use his execution as a moral boost so the city may continue. It's a smile that says "I've done what I can, I can move on and let the next in line take over". It's a smile that says "I don't blame you, do better than I could." Frick, after all that they had to go through it is a smile with so much behind it and I love it.

“I made sacrifices to keep London alive . I made to many I compromised to much I kept us alive let my sacrifice never be forgotten as you take over. And be the good steward the people need.” The final message from the captain of new London to the steward before leaving new London

CHILLS and not the cold kind. This song is incredible but its thanks to the animatic that I understood it more. Im super intrested in this Frostpunk now though.

Bro I’ve been watching your stuff since the taz animatic days and I love how much your style has evolved with Going Home and now THIS!! Honestly amazing

this is absolutely beautiful I've always wanted to see what it looks like from the eyes of a citizen! Praise to the Order of New London!

This is so wonderful!

Bruh I love the story of this. A leader trying his best to not only lead his people to survival but also making them happy. He made hard choices which he knows will stick throughout the city forever. As he makes the choices his people become more and more angry with him but also happy. So at the end when he’s finally executed everyone is happy and the city thrives. But now he will go down in history as a villian.

Only watched a narrated let's play of the game and damn, that let's play and now this amazing animation ? Guess I have to buy it now

I knew him from the Doki Doki song but woah! This is so amazing the song and the animatic like gosh the facial expressions and the lighting are so fantastic and work with the song and theme so well! I was captivated the whole time couldn't look away

Frostpunk is one of my fave games and this ended me

Well aren't I a late one.

I absolutely ADORE this. The perspective, the scenery, the visual storytelling- all of it!

That smile at the end, knowing hes facing a terrible death and yet....seeing that all the evil choices he made to keep his people alive worked made it worth it.

Oh my god. I forgot I was subscribed to this channel but I’m so glad I am.
