Intro Movie Details
 
I was wondering, does anyone know what's the text recited during the intro movie of SH4? :hmm: Couldn't find it anywhere.

Toss up between On Time and Wilfred Owen's Dulce Et Decorum Est as my favourite poem. :hmm:

I think the choice of poem and imagery for the SH4 intro is unsurpassed in game intros IMHO.:up:

It's a nice piece of work, it grows on you. The imagery fits well with the mystique of submarine warfare.

~Fly endless time~

Personally I think it was a developers lament that they did not have enough time to place a pristine product on the shelf.

That and the difficultys dealing with time itself. Time compression for one thing. Another ... all the 'date line' bugs.

Time & space ... no wonder the clouds move so fast. :p

Very nice observation SteamWake. You may be on to something there.

Any chance time could fly so we can get this new patch?

On another note, as this has come up before, shouldn't someone sticky this for the sake of non-redundancy? (no offense intended Winston Caine)

Edit: Woohoo, I'm a watch now!

Thanks for solving that mystery for me, everyone. :know:
