My job for these video's is to compare the game to real life and rant about it. You would be surprised how many things are wrong.

Mic=Best for freeware
Youtube=worst for video quality
Windows Movie Maker=has no sound control

Factions:
Episode one

Your voice is annoying, people will ignore every point you make if this continues to be true.

Comparing computer games to real life is just wrong. I am afraid that the best part was the ending.

Out of boredom I looked at your video.

You're voice is annoying, as Firefox said.

And you bring up points that is.... not relevant. The "house" is closer to an apartment and... I think skyscrapers exist in real life, ya know earthquakes and all that.

I'm surprised I didn't see something along the lines of "How dare they add up-right lizards" "Wtf, Tengu aren't birds!" and "Why did they add resurrection and magic! Absolutely non-sense"


Really, comparing a game to real life... pointless. You get nothing out of it, others get nothing out of it, and all games won't resemble real life.

You want things to be like real life - go outside.

Damn, I need a better voice or a mic that doesn't suck.
I'll just get the computer to say things.

Yeah, monsters are next.

I don't want things to be real life

First, it's not your voice, per se, but your tone. You just have a monologue "don't care about what I'm doing, why am I doing this?" kind of tone.

And, if you compare monsters to real life...

You have far too bored.

Fantasy and Fiction means that the monsters will not resemble real life, that things will not resemble real life.

While there are things in the game that do in fact resemble real life (i.e., physics and energy *cannot make something out of nothing and cannot turn something into nothing*), but even those things are influenced by things that don't even exist, let alone resemble, things in real life (i.e., magic).

He has the typical gamer nerd voice. Untrained in any storytelling venue whatsoever, thus does not have a voice that is pleasant to the ears of those who have become accustomed to professional narrators that do that kind of thing for a living.

I'm no better, and I'll be willing to bet none of you are either.

That said...I couldn't get past the "huh" after the shrine in shing jea. Yeah...that early.

GAMES ARE GAMES, REAL LIFE IS REAL LIFE. Not everything in the game is going to be interactive. Now go fap while you watch your ritualist dance.
