I THINK I'm getting closer to a style I can call my own...? Sort of along the lines of a review wrapped within... Madness? (*Shrug*)
But yeah, I made a thing this week.
At the moment I feel OK with it, but feel free to say some things if you think they'd help.

Very solid stuff dude, keep it up!
I cant really think of anything to improve on, as I said it is a very well put together video. From the voice over to the editing, everything is on point.
Cant wait to see more!

The following is my feedback alone. I like to remind people when I do share it, that these are my thoughts alone and I as one viewer may not make up the general opinion of your viewing demographic.
The Good:
Your camera presence has improved; you seem a lot more comfortable filming yourself in more recent content.
Editing is decent, heavily optimising your visual branding alongside clean cutaways and relevant footage for a vast majority of your discussion points. Some of the visual gags edited in didn’t come out too bad either, considering what you had planned and mentioned prior on the discord.
Subject of jokes, your attempts at humour are hit and miss, with some elements of the ol’ Caddie present in earlier stuff. I am not really a fan of his stuff, but you’ve done a fair bit to really branch out and make your style more of your own incorporating running gags and jokes distinct to you.
The Bad:
You do stumble occasionally on words and continue going. I’d maybe re-record lines or even the paragraph outright to make sure it connects naturally with the rest of the video. However I must admit, even with your strong accent this was easily your best sounding video you’ve made.
Overall:
You are easily one of the most improved channels present on the forum right now, with a good mind set going into content creation. I’d maybe try and rant less on games within the series, since they could later serve as future reviews for the channel. Also gives the viewer something to ponder on in the comments.
I’d also consider making a side series, to make shorter videos. I feel that might be something potentially keeping viewers away from investing time into you. Unless they trust a channel enough, they may not be willing to risk the time investment on someone still growing like you.

Thanks for this, I thought when uploading this one it's probably the closest to what I envisioned my content being when I started out but knew there's still work to do! Given its my own voice I'd never thought of my accent being a problem at all, I'd try altering it for the videos but I'd probably mess up lines even more if concentrating on that. It is something to keep in mind though, thanks. As for a short series of videos I'm actually working on one at the moment. Its talking a little while to get a more simplified visual format that's not too animated but not too stationary at the same time, but it's getting there. I do appreate the straightforward critique, glad I'm getting somewhere with everything but there's still room to improve everything. |

It is something to keep in mind though, thanks. Your accent itself is not an issue at all, please don't interrupt my feedback as that. The internet is riddled with voices from all parts of the world. If anything it makes you way more distinct among the well-spoken and borderline cockney southern selection that represent the UK on YouTube. But you do need to remember that while fellow brits might be able to follow, your inflections and tone might seem alien to someone uncultured. So most 14 year olds on YouTube. Just take into extra consideration when you flub a line. |

Ahh OK O see where you're coming from. I mean, for what it's worth none of the guys on Discord have struggled with me as far as I'm aware so it can't be too bad  Will do though, audio is very important aspect of it all so keeping that up to par is something I'll keep an eye (or ear) out for. Genuinely good to know that my content is improving in your opinion. I get a lot of weird self doubt go on sometimes so it's reassuring to know I'm along the right tracks as it were. I've pretty much finished this shorter video done except for one bit of footage a friend has for me. Curious to see how that pans out as its something different. |

Love the fast pace, but the first third of the video talking about everything besides Nexus confused me. I think the video should have been more focused, even split into 2. Maybe you could have a whole R&C retrospective video separate from the Nexus review. Aside from that, the video pacing and delivery is awesome.
