[April Fools] PTR Patch Notes | April 1, 2020 ๐Ÿ˜‡

About a week of work seperated on 2 months, this has been worked on since January 31, hereโ€™s a thread I made literally leaking something I started working on in fear of taking so long to make.

The template that literally persist for like 4 seconds in video took almost took 5~ hours of work just to get the template right using multiple video screenshots (I recall being specificially from Deckard, Qhira and Anduin, slapped and snipped on top of each other and getting bandaged from the hard edges to make it as much right as possible).

Next I worked on some footage, recording took 1 hour asking some friends to join for some footage via Sandbox, I wanted to showcase all but I recall at one point I became fully depressed with editing it so I just dumped it all, idk I became anxious I think and I thought maybe the video is too much and out of my league.

I archived the project for a month because I was burnt out of it while writing the content and I had to maintain between college and also trying to finish some mods I work for a different game (2 in particular).

But then after literally one of the mods getting showcased (itโ€™s the one on the left), it gave me the confidence to try again to make it right for Mercy abilities, the logos uses Deathwing spotlight as reference, I recall it took 6 hours to make the logo template (it might have taken less but I ainโ€™t a photoshop master) and its just a cake walk with content inside of it which I simply had to figure out how to do right, I spent the last 2 week writing the last content and making the logos just right, then the last week making sure the video is made correctly, of course I was waiting for the voice script from Mochrie (the one who voiced the spotlight not me, my mic is trash lol) sooo it took longer than expected but I was cool with it nonetheless.

Yeah its a long story from look of it but if I would consider the amount of time it took I would say about 3 weeks of work, compared to my last year post which literally took at least 2 days but that thread had everything ready it was all just writing in a nutshell.
