For Challenge #4 of sunshine_challenge

During the Snowflake Challenge, I did both some fan recs and some self recs so I'm going to link those again before I share other stuff. First, fanwork recs for Dragon Age/Little Red Riding Hood, Labyrinth and Critical Role. Next, some self recs for Henry V, Life is Strange and (again) Critical Role.

I do have some new stuff to share, this time with videos!

First up is the Retro Replay YouTube channel. Which maybe this is something that's riding a fine edge between new content and fan content, but I feel like not enough people know about it and I find it endlessly entertaining. Retro Replay is a show with very famous voice actors Nolan North & Troy Baker where they play retro video games (kind of). Mostly it's just them hanging out and telling weird stories. While I recommend their weekly show because it's always good for a laugh, the playthrough of Uncharted that they're doing separate from their regular weekly show, is amazing. Watching Nolan play the game he did the voice for, is great entertainment and Troy is SUCH a fanboy about the game. I love it.

Here's the Playlist for the Uncharted playthrough. But if you like it, I highly recommend checking out the rest of their content.

The Good Omens fandom resurgence with the television show has provided some really great fanvids. I want to share this one for "Hallelujah" because not only is a great song but I love the version of the song they used which is the Pentatonix version and one of my favorite covers.

"Good Omens [Hallelujah]" (Watch on YouTube)

And since it seems to be a theme with my rec posts, I'll go ahead and throw out something for Critical Role again too! I'm in love with the barbarian character, Yasha (I currently play a barbarian in the game I'm in so that might have something to do with it). And the artwork the fandom has come up for her character is just truly amazing. One of my current favorites is this piece by thealeksdemon (hopefully the twitter embed works but if it doesn't the link to their twitter post is here).
