If you can’t imagine the best of things, just imagine the worst, and then tell me how you’ll be a better person. It’s the same approach to life and art as it is to life and art.
Epic is a term used to describe a great work of art that is incredibly difficult and/or is a monumental undertaking. Epic does not mean “giant,” though there are some who consider it to be “giant.” It means “extraordinarily difficult or immensely demanding.” In other words, it’s one of those things that takes a lot out of you and you’re really glad you got to experience it.
Epic is a term that has been used to describe some of the greatest works of art and literature of the past century like the great, iconic works of Van Gogh, Picasso, Dali, Rothko, and so on. The epic approach to art is so far different from the ordinary that you will always view it as a bit of a challenge.
This is especially true when you consider that epic is often the goal of the artist. The idea of creating a work of art that is so challenging, such an undertaking, that it is impossible to take on in the ordinary sense of the word is, in some way, the essence of epic art. Artists like Dali and Rothko were able to push themselves to the extreme and do things that would have been considered impossible by more conventional artists.
The idea of pushing yourself to the extreme is something that has driven a lot of artists over the last couple of decades. When artists feel that they are incapable of creating something that seems impossible, they will often find ways of pushing themselves to try and get the idea to work.
This is exactly what’s happening in the most recent trailer for Epic’s next game, optime. The trailer takes us on a journey through the universe of this weird time-loop game, where you are a young man who wakes up on a beach and gets no memory of how he got there. You then find yourself floating in front of a mirror in a strange forest where you find yourself in the presence of two other young men who seem to be just as weird as you.
The idea is that Epics is a game about time-loops. There are no real rules to it, no real world to live in, and it’s really just a game about trying to push yourself as hard as you can to figure out how to change the past. There are no rules about who can live in the past, and everything is random (you can have the same past as anyone, and it’s different for different people).
If you thought the game was just about the randomness of time-loops, I can almost guarantee you that you never played a game like Epic. Not only is it hard to actually figure out how to change the past, but the randomness of the game makes it difficult to have friends in the past. There are many things in life that you don’t necessarily need to be friends with everyone you meet. But you can’t have friends in the past.
Sure, having friends in the past is a great way to play a time-loop game. But in the case of Epic’s new game Deathloop, having friends in the past makes the game much more frustrating than it has to be. You start off the game with a friend, and then you have to wait for a certain time to find out if you both have the same memories. Then you have to wait for the next memory, and so on and so on.
If you want to play a time-loop game, you need to have friends in the past. So Epics new game Deathloop is only good if you have friends in the past.
