I forgot what it's exactly called "sidebar" ? but it kinda got annoying while trying to watch the video.
You kept on pausing and having the markers etc but after a while + the bar it kinda just became tedious, try not to pause as much it makes the viewer/audience feel dumb, instead just talk and let your speaking flow as the game goes on, you will have 30-40 mins of discussing such things and not need to pause/view everything every 5 secs or you will get burnt out. Once you get burnt out etc, your voice will sound very monotone very Dyrus like, because of your constant pausing. I understand you're teaching/reviewing but it's something to just think about for future games.
I don't know about anyone but for me when I see reviews etc of games - I like to hear the game. Think of it as the ( director cut of a movie or how the directors are talking in the movie, about it etc but you can still somewhat hear the movie in the background) same thing hear, hearing someone's voice that nobody knows and 0 sound from a game that everyone knows/loves but 100% just you tends to get boring.
You said you didn't watch the game but at the same time you weren't "commentating" the game either, so like what Fozzybear said I don't know if this is entertainment or insight. How much can you really review a game if it's your first time watching it/seeing it? I would try to get another person to help you with the commentating/reviewing in my opinion, you can "feed" off them and vice versa and have a 24/7 type of feel to the commentating a constant feel, ongoing etc. You and the other commentator can discuss and disagree on certain things to better the viewer on having multiple scenarios, outcomes etc instead it just be 100% you gospel instead.
IDK if you wanted honest criticism or not but just my thoughts/opinions on the matter. Good work and I did enjoy it, hope you do more in the future if that is what you plan on doing, in short.
X - Pausing/markers - You will have more than enough time to pin point certain things in games that are around 38min averaged and have around 20-21 kills in them, you will have enough to talk about and not sound so Dyrus like without pausing to do so.
X - The second point - forget it if it's copyrighted/ the audio of the game, if it isn't and you can play and commentate I would really enjoy such videos if I could listen to it + you.
X - Try to watch the games that you review/commentate before doing this first, it's like reviewing a novel if you haven't ever read it but just know the ending.
X - Having someone to help you and have a constant feel to the review.
wow wasn't expecting that much feed back thanks a lot. I try to do videos I haven't watched so it doesn't look rehearsed. Also i have it muted because sometimes the casters do talk over me. Thank you though!
First it's important for me to understand what your purpose with your VOD review is. Just to entertain or to provide meaningful insight or...?
