Whats up gamers, in celebration of America's favorite holiday (my birthday) we're gonna talk about paper game manuals! These dang things used to be everywhere, but now? Do you see them ANYWHERE? No! Newer games like Baldurs Gate 3, Elden Ring, heck, even games like Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom or Fortnite don't have manuals! And wouldn't it be weird if they did? Let's discuss the rise and fall of the paper game manual and go in to too much depth on the history and where they are today.
Join me in this video I wrote in October, filmed in November, then didn't touch until May! I think the KZitem algorithm actually likes it if I only post once a year so this will be great for the channel.
