Pandora Preview Video

[gfurst]

Hey folks, I would to ask for little bit of attention, especially from the developers.
I've finished and uploaded a video to Youtube, with intention of it being sort of a preview/showcase video of the game.
Recording it was excruciating, I had to repeat a lot of times. So I would like to know( specially from the devs) how the overall quality of the video is, if my talking isn't too annoying, and if this might interest more people to the game.

Thanks, If you don't think it to be too bad I'll be publishing it.

Do you remember this is a Closed beta so far ?
You should ask the devs before you upload game information !

I did, in fact I even asked if there were something in particular that they wanted me to show.

But any feedback about the video itself?
I've decided to redo the talking with the same footage, but more naturally talking with it.

Hey, I've made a new version, more natural. I want to have some feedback on it:

Sorry, we're extremely busy getting ready for release.

But wow. Thanks for all the effort gfurst, you even wrote subtitles for it!

I'll be brutally honest though, probably too much so. The video has a horrible framerate. I'm not sure many people would enjoy it much like that.

Perhaps a more suitable format would be a screenshot let's play, or AAR as it seems to go around here, Iain made a post about it viewtopic.php?f=204&t=45610

Thanks again for all your involvement here, it's more helpful than you know.

Thanks for the feedback Sephirok, and sorry for the framerate stuff. It seems ok to me though, the video is regular 30 fps and the game wasn't that slow when recording.
It could be the export format, I've used x264 with amazing compress abilities, the finished file is only 70 MB. Are you sure is that bad though? It could be youtube having some stutter the time you watched.

I'm not sure what caused it, but my first guess would be that the game just ran slowly since the cam plays smooth. You can see the difference if you watch our beta preview video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ljh7PgyH2Pw).
