Very nice man, you seem like a cool cat. I would really like to see a complete and thorough review from you at level 60 though.

This is a greatly improved review over some of your previous attempts. It appears you took some of the criticism and suggestions to heart. So well done with that.

I felt the review was realistic and fair, so also well done. It does have a glaring flaw however. Nostalrius just finished out its first month, which means the server content that was reviewed was during the time frame of its first few weeks. I understand that you used the phrase "it's in its teething stage" and made an attempt for the viewers to understand it has 'new server issues'... But if a casual gamer is sorting through your videos for advice on where to play, the vast majority of your videos are made with established projects well out of their launch.

The comparison is going to be skewed. No question about it. Despite the fact that folks aren't going to like hearing this mentioned, more than likely you'll do a Kronos review. Do you plan to also observe that server's content within its first 30 days? Kronos has the benefit of an open beta phase to iron out issues (their choice), but delaying your review past a similar time frame that Nostalrius was put to will be quite unfair.

I can't agree more with this.

I think that he should add something, a banner or something to say that all these facts he mentioned against the server, has all been fixed. It's a funny review and everything, but people might judge from the dc's you received ;)

I was wondering when you would come here to do a review, as I already saw MrGamemasterReviews in Darkshore. Thanks for another entertaining video, Sir.

However, I only experienced the animation glitch not from cooking, but fishing? Also, reroll horde and record yourself smashing that fruitcake fanboy that took Tyris' name while singing the theme song from Caddyshack.

Do it. I'll even supply the beat.

Very weak review. Not good or bad, just weak. It looks like it only covered the first week or so. It was outdated and obsolete the instant it went up. It looks more like he just gave up on this one and uploaded what he had(pre ban for hacking) so he could just move on to the next serve. His video covers mostly issues that have been worked on or fixed prior to his upload time rather than persisting issues still around. He was mostly concerned with making jokes about the frequent disconnects, which haven't been an issue for a while. The server rarely throws at this point, but he implies it's still a regular problem. If he uploaded this video 7 days in, it would have been fine at that time, but he put it up at the 3 week mark and it was at least 2 weeks obsolete. Starting area clutter hasn't been an issue for a while either, and they've adjusted respawn times on certain quests since launch. I don't expect a video/review to be 100% accurate with something that is changing so quickly, but given that it doesn't take long to make a 12m video, it shouldn't have been so outdated the exact day it was uploaded. The length also shows he didn't play much, meaning he's just slapping it together before he moves on to Kronos or couldn't be bothered to start over because he got banned himself on the server for "hack testing"(he made a thread for this). So, as I said, very weak review. Doesn't really help or hurt our server. I question why he even bothered with it.

Got yer!

So your the one spreading lies about me.

I'm not banned and I don't hack servers. If you want to talk shit about me then send me a message. Be a man and talk to me directly, not some pussy bitch who makes up shit so people give you attention.

If I was banned I wouldn't be writing this you fucking cock. You wanna talk shit about me, come and have a go. I'll fucking obliterate you prick.
