Stranded Preview I Expansive
Expansive is trying something a bit different and is starting to produce video content that allows the viewer to watch the reviewer play a game for the very first time with reactive commentary prior to their final assessment.
Essentially it’s a fresh experience of a game’s opening ten minutes for both the player and the viewer and it serves as a variation of a preview before a final Overview goes on the site. Generally the commentary will pick up some initial observations of the game, how it handles technically, what's good about the overall experience and what isn't, but it also allows allows the viewer to see if this is something they might be interested in. It could be dynamic and exciting because the reviewer has no idea what they’re doing or where they’re going and that can lead to some unexpected consequences. Or it could be a complete disaster. Fortunately, this one didn’t turn out too badly.
