Awesome teaser, can't wait to see the others that you have planned. Also I really love the music that you used.

Whoa. That's awesome.
Very nice work.
Have you seen Ace Ventura: When Nature Calls? The little grossed-out-dance he does after he gets the bat back in the cage at the end of the movie? Yeah, I just did that. Heebie Jeebies!
@Winter. Because I'm Winter. Period.
I am a blaster first, and an alt-oholic second.
That's how one uses a shaky cam. Very nice job as always.

Kudos for the use of that Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri soundclip near the end. Somebody's in the Punishment Sphere tonight....

Only because try as I might, I could NOT get that scream right. Not only did I nearly blow out my mic each time I tried, but if I'd gotten much louder, my neighbors would have been dialing 911.

Solid video, as usual. Always glad to see these, even if I forget to mention it in one of these threads.

I went looking to see if I could find one like "Mary had a little lamb", "London Bridge is falling down", or "Ring a-Round the Rosy". Maybe I'll start a new tradition among the American gamer community. Quote:

I suppose I should warn him, though... if he didn't approve of this one, he's gonna outright hate the third one. Oh well, c'est la vie.Michelle

The Circle of Thorns has a gruesome backstory (kidnap and murder of children) and makes no secret of its servitude to Hell. They easily rank Number One on my list of groups to eliminate. (I will stop and throw an AoE on any green bonfire as I pass, even on my level 50s.)
These folks in your video are clearly challenging for that top slot.
Nicely done.
"How do you know you are on the side of good?" a Paragon citizen asked him. "How can we even know what is 'good'?"
"The Most High has spoken, even with His own blood," Melancton replied. "Surely we know."

As I described it in another post of mine elsewhere, "the burden of adhering to and enforcing moral and humane behaviour should be borne by each individual, not forced onto the shoulders of a select few, some of whom didn't want that burden to begin with."
And they remind me of BABYLON 5's Psi Corps.
Never mind Lord Recluse and the Arbiters... God help Cole and Praetoria in general if the Seers ever collectively turned on their handlers.

whew. Glad I'm not the only one.
Excellent work, as always.
The vocals are what made the music creepy I find, but it suited the video awesomely
/thumbs up
Awesome vid!

I mean, nice vid, Samuraiko.

BTW, I got this awesome message from Vlad after I sent a link to the vid:
It's the first time I see any of my tracks put to any use and I sincerely like the results. (Your voice suits the tune just fine and adds to the overall atmosphere of the trailer. Good work!)
Thank you for the credit and thank you for the appreciation. I rarely get any. You made my week.
Just as a small piece of information, if you need any custom soundtracks in the future, I'm available
Cheers, and have a wonderful day!
