Lesson 2: Never run Muse - Butterflies and Hurricanes

Lesson 3: Never give up even when you have 30hp Metallica - Battery

Lesson 4: If all else fails, editing. Ministry - Jesus built my hotrod

Those weren't bad. Good Job.

Had to say the one to Muse was my favorite, the song works perfectly for the clips you got. (And muse is so underrated too. One of the better bands out there IMO)

Keep em coming!

Easily some of the best production values and editing I've seen. Kudos!

The "I'll make a man out of you" = genius.

The quality is definitely there, but content wise, nothing can beat Crusaders "Guild Wars Thriller Video (Featuring Gwen)"

Great job though, I am slowly getting motivated to put my godly computer of godlyness to its video-editing potential.

Great videos. You did a very good job with matching the music to the video. Most people just slap music onto a video so, it is nice to see someone put effort into making a really good video.

Frapping took about 30 minutes, editing about 30 or so.

We use Fraps and Windows Movie Maker. The first two are from about 3 Betas back, the third one was two betas back, and the last one was last beta.

I loved the first one. No getting round it, GW is just a cinematic game. The "Never give up" one was fascinating, too. Mind if I ask what skills was the character using in that fight?

I agree with the general consensus that these videos are very good. The effort into making these were obvious and appreciated by all. Good job.

No Idea

The first one would've been better if we figured out somehow which of the trio was Mulan, if any of the three were Mulan. :P

Excellent vids. I was very impressed, especially with the first one. I really quite enjoyed that one shot with the moon above & behind the right shoulder of the character. Kudos!

I sure liked those vidoes. You guys did a great job!

It proves that this game is more fun if you do it with friends and in Guilds. I need to get into a decent guild after a while.

I was impressed with the Hammer Warriors Solo abilities. Not bad at all.

Great videos. My favourite was the Mulan - lesson 1.

That was about 2 betas back. I dont use that setup anymore. It was my transitional build from a knockdown warrior, to a smiting warrior. I love smite. And I love the responses from all of you.

We'll be making more, so stay tuned!

Actually, I don't think that's correct. The second slot in the video appears to be Holy Strike. I also see Counter Blow, Smite, Orison, Bal's Spirit, and Mending. I can't identify the other two, but I don't think they're Earthshaker, Sprint, or Banish. In fact I think they're both signets...

Depends which vid you are looking at. Those were for the Battery vid (the undead fight)

The one you are referring to is the Editing vid (the mantle fight), which has:

Signet of Judgement
Holy Strike
Counter Blow
Smite
Bane Signet
Orison of Healing
Balthazar's Spirit
Mending

How about one with some brighter shots, like in Pre-sear Ascalon? Some of the vids were a bit dark to see much though I really loved the first one. The scenery is so amazing but the bight shots can be hard to see.

Ah, yes, my mistake. I liked that latter one better, particularly when he's coming up on the people and they're just jabbering on and on, and he's like, "Shut up and fight!" Heh... Might also have something to do with my opinion that Ministry > Metallica.

Yeah, its not as dark when I FRAP em, but for some reason Windows Movie Maker really lowers the quality, not just size, but color and brightness. I think on the next vid I will mess with the brightness effect before finishing the video to see if maybe it will bring the colors out more.

...or I oculd stop being lazy and just learn how to use Adobe Premier since the disc is just sitting here on my desk...

Agreed. Old Metallica is still a work of art, but they turned into complete babies for some reason, complaining about all kinds of stuff a true metal band would care less about. Welcome Metallica to the superficial world of Mainstream music

I just wanna say I showed the Videos to some of my NON NON NON gaming friends. They were amazed that you could make videos out of a game. And thought you were a genius, he he.

They all liked the KoN Video, Muse. The music really fits nice with the Video. I have too look up some more music by Muse.

I have a bunch of Metallica too. Their music is great for getting pumped!


Again, wonderful job man. When non gaming people like it as well - then its good.
