Howdy! Let’s discuss the success of the AI generated fantasy music video ‘Queens of Avalon’. This short film has over a million views in just 8 days. Those are some respectable numbers for a YouTube channel with 9 thousand subs. Those are actually blockbuster numbers if you ask me. So, before we get to lessons learned, I’d like to congratulate Remix Reel Studios. Nice job! Keep em’ coming!

Now let’s address the big takeaways from the success of this video. Why are people responding to Queens of Avalon? It’s simple really. One: They deliver what they promise. Fantasy. Two: Attractive women are appealing. These two things seem to have been forgotten by a large section of Hollywood and the gaming community and it’s worth highlighting.

Queens of Avalon now joins games like Stellar Blade in the creations by people who aren’t stupid. While other people try again and again to make fantasy and sci fi look like ‘modern world’, some will remember that it’s called ‘Fantasy’ for a reason. We don’t want to think about the modern world. We want an escape for a bit. We want fantasy. It’s not rocket surgery, okay? See, in a fantasy sci fi, one could witness rocket surgery. And your surgeon would be a total smoke show, wearing polished armor over her perfect boobs and for some reason she’s also have a sweet booty halfway exposed. That’s how it works, people.
