It's been awhile...

Howdy all!
It's been quite sometime that I've posted (read: after QuestStudios.com went offline I forgot this board moved). Hope everyone has been doing well. I still see some old 'faces' around here on the board, which is good to see.
I've recently been pondering more & more about capturing gameplay footage of the old Sierra games and requesting the Dev's to add commentary to these playthroughs. After which I would post them on YouTube or another streaming medium. With all the developers getting older, it feels a shame if we would lose a lot of funny/interesting stories that happened during the development of these adventure games. The playthroughs would consist of (at least) MT-32 soundtracks - or potentially remastered soundtracks like Alistair and others have done in the past.
Sometime in (I believe 2018), I actually got together with a few Sierra friends and recorded some video footage of Josh Mandel & Al Lowe talking about Freddy Pharkas at Al's house in Bellevue WA. The plan was to have the video we captured of them talking about the game as a small window overlapping the game-play. Unfortunately we never did anything with the footage. While I know some commentary footage was captured during the funding of the SpaceVenture KS, I believe there would still be a decent audience out there that would be interested in hearing from these developers.
Thoughts? Comments?
