It's funny how those three videos all follow quite a strict format even though none was specified afaik. All competitors did amazing work, I must say.

Yeah, the format is quite similar, it all comes down to choice of footage and editing. Every one of them would be worthy, hard choice :)

They all have some elements that make them special - I'd say use all 3 in a rotating system.
For while the fire in the heart of a single Remnant still burns... can Stratia truly have fallen?

I think #1 has superior music and pacing.  While they were all quite good and similar, the other two felt a bit more generic.

Since this is to be on the "landing page" for the cRPG website, it wouldn't take too much effort to code it so that you had a 1/3 chance of seeing each one when you loaded the page. They're all brilliant and it seems the community is backing that as fact so where would the harm be in showing off everyone's work?

Edit:

The only problem I foresee with that though is that the first and second one mention how many people can fight at once, the first says 140, the second says 200. I also find that they all end abruptly, there is no sort of "fade out" as it were. My only criticism/observation from an amateur.

They all have some elements that make them special - I'd say use all 3 in a rotating system.

Might have been worth me reading this before posting!  :rolleyes:

Definitely the third one.
I love them all, but the last one just seemed so much more "professional". The editing is the best!

Also, my char appears in it, haha.  :D

The videos have opposite numbers than the order of which they are presented in the OP. Shame on you Harald.

All three of them are very nice, kudos.

I ended up voting for nr. 3 simply because I like some of the effects used. The first one uses German warband as example and somehow that just felt wrong.
He is despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief. He was oppressed, and he was afflicted, yet he opened his mouth.

The numbers are simply the version history of each of the videos.
Video #1 by Doppel is the 3rd version.
Video #3 by 722_ is its first version.

About the different ones, cannot really decide, will take another look later but all three of them look great.
The first one might be a bit too fast for my taste, but I like all three

They are all very similar and very well made.

Some things that I spotted from each one of the videos:
First one didn't have enough in-game footage, and what it had was speeded up + the death reports were annoyingly visible.
Second one had a custom sound mod  :wink: only bad thing I could figure out about it. My favorite  :D
Third one had some pieces of it on a really bad quality.

Anyway, extremely good work for all of the videos.
