Way too saturated at times. Music was more distracting than enjoyable. Still, good shots/footage.

I'd disagree. As Fixious already said: "Way too saturated at times."

Why all the different fonts, was there a special reasoning behind that decision?

And while it might be true that you've "gotten significantly better at chaining" (I'm not really playing with you, so I can't tell if you've had been worse before), why would you slap all your footage on the end of the video, en bloc? Mix it in with the rest, it won't stand out that much then, and won't distract as much from the rest as it does now.

There are no credits at the end.

MJ1284's footage is awesome, as always, and he's quite annoying with the LR indeed. ;)
 
Personally, I thought you should have added names in the corner to identify who the player was.

Although in this video, I'm sure everyone knows which clip is who's because of the skill level.

It's okay, enjoyable to some extent. You've played a bit too much with the contrast/brightness levels and the music transitions could have been better.

MJ1284 is quite annoying with the LR indeed.

That is an understatement.

Not bad. Not all of the clips needed the color correction though and next time mix the clips like gheist said. But other than that the shots were nice
 

Armageddon

Teapot
This.

And the ground and pound bits at the end didn't fit with all the snipe shots.

I agree with Armageddon, towards the end of the video I kind of got bored because of all the dueling and nothing to do with the flag besides 1 return, but all in all it was a good video.

what??? Aw damn I forgot to add it, I would change it but I deleted the saved file project -.-

Wasn't supposed to.
Good Job Ellismore
Thanks!

And to everyone i'm more aware of the colors now, it won't be like that in my next video. thanks for the all the notes on improvement guys!

Yeah I know MJ is better than me, he's like, a god at Legions, I can't compare to him :p

Saturated video
A bit dark at times
Some of the shots you aren't moving till you start recording. Which leads me to believe that some of the fights are staged and your basically like "Ok I'm recording go."
Editing isn't very clever, it's just that the shots were strung together, the only point it becomes creative is near the end with the fast motion.
I managed to watch through the whole thing so it's not like I dropped it half way through.
Why did it take you several months? Tbh those clips could probably have been assembled in a month?

It's not terrible, but there's defiantly a lot to fix, it doesn't stand out amongst all the other gameplay videos you see today, I can see you have the potential to edit, you just need to work on it.
Also, why is the intro so long...

...That second sentence you said doesn't even make sense. I was playing in a normal hotswap server with random people except Belberith, who I know, and we were all just playing. I stop for a second because it takes me a a little less than a second to reach my finger from my mouse to the F9 key, which is the recording toggle in FRAPS. Also please read previous replies before saying something. I realize it's saturated at times and I don't need to be told that several times. And you obviously don't do a lot of editing. This took ME several months because I'm lazy and I tend to slack off. It's not like everybody who says "took me months" worked on it 24/7 for months straight. They take massive breaks, Like I did, but it still didn't change the fact that I started sometime in June and finished it now.
And are you really complaining about the intro being long? It's 40 seconds and barely noticeable.
It didn't impress me, still good job!
Well it seems like you liked it so thanks :D

I don't see you complaining about hollow "I like it!" statements, repeated or not. Why is that?

You also might want to think about your definition of "barely noticeable". And yes, if people say "I've worked on it for a week", that usually means that they've worked on something for a week, not for 5 hours spread out over the time of one week (in which case others would expect them to say "I've worked on it for a few hours"). I really don't know why it's so hard for you to deal with critisicm. I mean, you're asking for it!
