There a lot of millennial 'how's it going fellow zoomers' in the way I approach the studio and its social media. Believe it or not that stuff is very genuine. I do find chicken jokey funny, I have watched like 40 episodes of skibidi toilet, I will make incomprehensible references to pimpy son OPP in my daily life. Sadly, this doesn't really fly in the predominantly boomer and gen X looner community. The only ones who will hit the dab back at me on Twitter are cressedew and genericlooner (the latter would probably chide me for enjoying skibidi lore). When people see 'Bnuy' as the title of this weekend's update they'll probably be a bit confused.
Then there's the real millennial material. The video itself is a spin on the game of SKATE, a popular game among skaters (duh!). I've played every THPS from 3 to American Wasteland, plus 1+2 on the PS4 before the war. AND I actually used to skate! Now I can barely sprint 100 meters without falling over and dissolving into pyroxene shards.
The girls do explain the rules in the beginning so don't worry, it's simple and fun. The main difficulty was time (as always) and Celestine being pretty much unbeatable. We had her sandbag two challenges just to have some variety and excitement in the clip. We also wanted a revenge storyline to come through: as you might recall, Celestine won in 'Celestine vs Selenite'.
The final challenge that gives her the last letter was not staged though. Some quasi-Jackass shit. I had to cut like 20 seconds of Celestine being disgusted at the end to end on a fun note.
