As you said, we rather not spam the french guy.

Before saying anything, I'd like to make something clear: My post wasn't intentioned to insult you or offend you whatsoever, but I suppose you know this by now, as we know each other for quite some time now, and you should be aware of my... Diplomatic disabilities.

That aside, here we could be able to discuss this.

I don't want you to do anything, as it is your channel, and as such, entirely your choice on what and what not to do. Still, I'd really be pleased to see more effort in the editing camp from your side. Now don't get me wrong, now you have 16:9, so your video will look clean and crisp, and such should suffice. But really, if you look at videos like... For example, RoyalOMG's, you see a lot of fast paced and cinematic editing. While your videos feel more likely... You get my point. It isn't as bad as MM54321's by any means where it's just a walkthrough of a recolored ROM hack with minimalistic editing, but I see a lot wrong with it. Again, I'm not saying you should flip your editing over entirely, but try something new now and then, maybe practice Chroma Keying. Not to make stuff like Lance's, but if you know those tricks you'll have videos that look a little more... Cinematic and engaging, and as such maybe you could be a little more satisfied, even if it took you longer.

Your videos do entertain me, but as many things that I like, I see flaws in them, and I want to adress them for a theoretical improvement, as it is a thing I dearly care about. If I wouldn't care, I wouldn't vaste my time criticising it.

SMG4 certainly isn't perfect. Not only the errors you mentioned that are rather common, but even his too weird combination of voices and text. It's quite irritating to say the least.

I don't mean to take away your dialogue scenes, or to cut parts out. But more likely do something about it just being Marios standing around with text boxes popping up. I rather mean to put a little more... God this will come off as rude again... Put a little more effort into them. Use zooming, keyframing, all that simple stuff. That alone would make it waay more compelling, as it would make the visuals more alive, so you wouldn't just prevail in terms of, you know, plots and character development, but also in the overall visual and cinematic quality of your video. As I mentioned above, I do enjoy those dialogues as they often have pretty good jokes in them, but again, I criticise to help. Even if it understandably doesn't sound like it, since I can only come off as a complete jerk.

If you believe people wouldn't be pleased by such minor changes, then I'd say, don't do it. But I'm fairly confident people would love to see it being a little more, as I said, engaging. But such is just speculation. Perhaps I am just going fully crazy.

With that said, I dare repeat myself again, don't take this as snarky remarks, take this as advice. Even if it sounds rude. I really should do something about that, though.
