After watching it I feel I can give some good criticism.

To start, the wordings...were very strange. I know it is old english but i'm not so sure even you understood the use of them very well.

The battles were lacking in any eye candy. Both of them had no real action, just units attacking units.

The ending was helarious only because I saw the movie that came up with it, Monty Python and the Holy Grail.

The pathways the characters ran through were a bit long and made me loose interest quite easily. You should have done something such as camera panning and better doodad placements to make it seem less uniform.

I suggest you improve on these should you work on another cinematic. When people watch these they don't want to see Warcraft, they want to see the world you put them in, and that includes more controlled battles. Instead of stab stab death death, have an actual fight. Running, hitting, casting (if thats their thing). Not just running up and attacking. No one does that.

Also, soundtrack. It could have used alot more sounds to make it more interesting and provide a better feel for the timeline and environment. Through the entire thing I only heard an owl hoot, and that was when they did that long uninteresting walk to the hidden village or whatever. I know there was about 5 sound effects, but having them bunched at the end and not more varied throughout makes it boring.

Overall: 2/10 Sorry but that's my honest opinion. Just wasn't very enjoyable for me.

I've watched your cinematic and to e honest it's not very good.
The music was bad because you only had one soundtrack the whole cinematic. I didn't understand many words at first beacuse it was old English. As for the storyline I don't know if it is made up or some of it really happened (I'm not from England).Squire died like it had no meaning at all.
The positive side of the cinematic is the terrain.

I'm working on a new cinematic; it will be better than the first one. I promise :thup:

Good luck with your new cinematic.;)

Some people can't open the map because the file extension happens to be sir.sir

Change that to w3x and it opens up.

Ah sweet mother lord of jesus. I turned that off after they traveling great hours.
I know everybody has to start somewhere , but it doesn't mean go releasing it. Music sounds bad , text is plain.
I encourage voice acting.

IF you need criticism , go watch a professional cinametic and see the difference. Compare and improve.

wc3campaigns , has very good cinametics. Take a look and see what they did, compared to you. Please don't put low quality music for the sake of saving map space.
Some of there maps are 20-40mb each.

text is plain.
So you'd rather have it flashing in bright colors? I can do that.
I encourage voice acting.
I encourage having a microphone, but I can't get one :(

I've seen Cult of the Damned and Creatures of the Night.

I didn't put it in for saving map space; I didn't even know it's low-quality.

It's coming out when I finish it. :rolleyes:
It's about King Arthur.

Hm... you seem to like olde english stuff a lot, eh?

Anyways, voice acting is only good if you sound good. If you sound like a teenage boy with voice cracks then don't bother, I'd rather just read it then.

Also, good luck with your new cinematic.

The next cinematic will hopefully be more readable.

That's the glory of sound-editing programs :thup:

Thanks :thup:

    Looks like Google fixed whatever mistake that made the recipes on the site go crazy and we are no longer trending towards a recipe site lol - I don't care though because it motivated me to spend alot of time on the site improving it and at least now the content people are looking at is not stupid and embarrassing like it was when I first got back into this like 5 years ago.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Plus - I have a pretty bad ass recipe collection now! That section of the site is 10 thousand times better than it was before

    We now have a web designer at my job. A legit talented professional! I am going to get him to redesign the site theme. It is time.

    I got one more day of community service and then I'm free from this nonsense! I polished a cop car today for a funeral or something I guess
  • Varine Varine:
    They also were digging threw old shit at the sheriff's office and I tried to get them to give me the old electronic stuff, but they said no. They can't give it to people because they might use it to impersonate a cop or break into their network or some shit? idk but it was a shame to see them take a whole bunch of radios and shit to get shredded and landfilled

    Hmm, how do I change my signature?
  • tom_mai78101 tom_mai78101:
    Signatures can be edit in your account profile. As for the old stuffs, I'm thinking it's because Blizzard is now under Microsoft, and because of Microsoft Xbox going the way it is, it's dreadful.
