For the fans... D_R's GOING ROGUE teaser is now live

Thank you for making and sharing this (I should say that on behalf of CoH, hehe)!

Forget the nice job you did with the demo editing and some cool techniques (The way you got him hanging in the holding cell, on the operating table, etc) and the movie editing (The mirror effects and all) and forget about what models you did or didn't have access to...

You got the dramatic content so wonderfully, it has created that rare happenstance of me not being sure how to express myself about it!
We all know (Just as you do) that you have the know-how and the tools to demo edit, movie edit, etc... We both know that anyone with the tools and the knowledge can get that stuff going (Sure, not everyone will come up with the clever ideas here and there, but shush!)...
It is in the message chosen, and the dramatic delivery of that message, that makes a piece of work stand out.

That's my personally highly rated opinion on that (haha) and I think this teaser achieves the intrigue and anticipation you want from a "teaser", while planting a deeper seed in the mind pertaining to the subject matter.
That seed you planted so wonderfully inspires thoughts, ideas, concepts and excitement... And that all leads to people wanting to take part in being able to follow through with these ideas in CoH.

Blahhh...
Short Version: Great message and angle on the Going Rogue expansion. As far as I am concerned, it could have been a blank screen with those words and it would have been pretty damn good. Add the music and the images and you kicked *** on this one.

Thanks, E-K. While "Great job!" is always appreciated, knowing what it is about the video that people did (or didn't) like is a bigger help so I know what to do (or not do) in future works.

I didn't like that Desdemona wasn't naked.

Errrr... well, I know how to do that in demorecord. But then this game wouldn't be rated T for Teen anymore, now would it?

That's why all online games also say:

"Online Interactions Not Rated by the ESRB"

So you can DOOOO EEEEET!

We can bargain here. What's it worth to you for me to turn Desdemona from a Maxim cover girl into the Playmate of the Month?

Though I do have to admit, if I (and my almost 500 YouTube subscribers) were of the same submoronic intelligence as my detractors appear to be, I'd love to organize a movement to bombard their actual channels (not their videos, just their channels) with one witty, scathingly eloquent putdown after another until they collapse crying in a corner from their own inferiority.

If we were.

Thankfully, we're not.

There's no need.
Critics are just that; critics. They can't do. So they criticise. This is why I rarely trust film critics. Cos they tend to talk so much horse-puckey.

Your work is good. Yes, some things could be done better, because no art is ever 'perfect'. When you feel happy with it, odds are other people will agree.

I would HARDLY call her iteration Maxim. More like.... Cosmo.

I'd be satisfied with an FHM verison.
