Not been posting here recently but I've reviewed the new Hitman and Superhot. Also which thumbnails are better? The ones with the white backgrounds or the ones with the screenshots?

White background and title.

But with a little edited screenshot in the lower right corner.

Also, the new Hitman looks so shitty. Those animations....

New Hitman didn't look amazing, it was OK. Gameplay was solid though, just not enough there. Only 3 relatively short missions, but it's only £11. Better value than Superhot.

What about a screenshot in replacement of just the white background? The mascot dude and logo stay put?

You should definitely have the Logo, the mascot and the Game's name in the thumbnail.

And who draws your character? I want one!

Still trying to figure a way that works Renay. I was considering just grabbing the title image and putting the mascot and Ouj Reviews title on it but it looks too cluttered for a thumb.

Done this in the meantime though...

That's better than just the screenshot.

Nice videos, it has potential))

The thumbnails look good like that imo - simple background, game logo and some mascot of yours so attention is brought both to the game you're covering and the author.

I liked your Ori and the Blind Forest and Twilight Princess reviews, with XCOM 2 review I can't agree but it's still a nice summary of the game. You give quick and detailed descriptions, but some of that detail is lost because of the pace at which you present the material. Maybe it's just me, but slightly slower narration and making the video last 5-6 minutes in total would be cool. Unless you're opting for giving people a quick review/overview of the game, then it's perfect.

One important factor (and slightly ripping it from TotalBiscuit :D) would be a better segmentation of material and maybe speaking a few sentences about the games options and system requierments - even something simple as whether it justifies the looks or if it's insanely demanding and gives you an 8bit quality; by segmentation I mean something like - first you cover, say, the plot of the game, then speak a few words maybe about the changes made in comparision to the previous titles, from here move on to the gameplay, later comment on the graphical and audio quality, and by nearing the end mention the system requierments. Of course the order of those things is completely objective and you do you, and from what I watched you did that anyway - covered it part after part, but making it standard for your videos creates a nice feeling of "everything being in place".

Good shit will probably check for videos relevant to games I play/10

Yea really nice mate.

Divinity Dragon Commander is on a Steam sale for 5quid atm, though I heard it was not very good, so not sure if it would be worth the fiver for you

But then again, you can always refund after 2 hours of playtime
For all the non-believers, look no further than this thread for proof that while strat battles are won/lost in NA3/EU3, strat wars are won and lost on the forums.

Well if you check out my Tomb Raider and Fallout reviews I did do a bit of that stuff but I found the watch length was around 2-3 minutes so I decided to shorten them to around 4-5 minutes because they get more watch time which is important and it's easier. I'd like to move into the longer videos again at another time but I'm keeping it short for now. Might do longer videos for the big releases but there aren't too many that I'm interested in this year. Might do one for Dark Souls 3 but not sure.

Oh, that's good then. I'm just speaking from my experience as someone who usually finishes the video he starts, I didn't know the statistics :oops:

And definetly, shorter videos are a good starting point in building some kind of a audience. Keep on keeping on as they say, and definetly try Dark Souls 3 when you can))

I think Dark Souls 3 will be a given for lots of views if I can get it out relatively quickly.

The stats stuff is pretty interesting, it really shows where you need to make your videos interesting. Generally speaking if you can keep someone's attention past 30 seconds they'll watch a lot more of the video. Kinda cool.

Quite an accomplishment for you, Pyjamaflip.  :wink:
Do you honestly think you have any sort of moral authority, Reyiz? Go genocide some more armenians and deny it ever happened, please, and stay in the middle east.
