“You took down the evil witch, but did you need to take half of all goblins in Witchaven with her?”
-Shatner

"Capstone: The Pinnacle of Always F***ing Something" always gets me.

Rest in Peace to Ken Kelly, the amazing artist that did the coverart for Witchaven that made the game seem WAY cooler than it actually is.

Chex chain armour, jazz hands magic casting, and hero time...

This game is a work of art.

7:51 As someone who played this as a kid I can confirm that the arrows are meant to be more emotionally damaging than physically

“Incredible job, sir civvie, however, must thou kill so many goblins?”

- Sir Shatner

“This has to be good writing, look at all these adverbs”

Civvie: "I dont want to play TNT Evilution because its boring"
Also Civvie: Plays more capstone games than anyone else

"We just spotted Big Gob in Map 14, think you can head down there and bring him in?"

-VVilliam Shatner

"They are rage, brutal, without mercy. But you. You will be worse. Rip and tear, until it is done."

-Capstone's creative director speaking to the team before starting Witchaven's development.

Woah did we just get POV at the start? Upped production value? A Capstone game? What a gift for a Sunday Morning

1995 story! Less than 3 weeks after this game came out, my local Electronics Boutique was GIVING them away. Not even in an official promo though. I walked in, the guy recognized me as a frequent customer (this was back when they had shirt & tie older guys running the store), and announced that I was such a regular he was GIVING me a free appreciation gift!


And then I played WItchaven......thanks, "friend".

“IT’S PART BULL, ALRIGHT.”

Civvie 11: Actually taking the time to craft clever jokes.

From this day on, I will be the leader of the "We want to see Civvie show us the Witchaven II" cult.

CIVVIE, WE NEED TO KNOW!

The chests that poison you clearly contain a copy of Tekwar attached to a spring.

Damn, it’s been a while since the actual dungeon has been referenced.

fun fact: i made a guitar pick out my Witchhaven CD.


also a fun fact: i dont play guitar.

I see the word "strife" in this video. I can't believe you've just subtly confirmed Pro Strife is coming soon!

"This writing has to be good; it has adverbs."
I feel personally attacked lmao

Holy shit the sound of the sword hitting the dragon is the exact sound they used in a 90s klingon knife toy where you push buttons and it makes a CLANG sound.
