You know I totally love this video. It's awesome. The only issues I did have was when I could only see the end and I was confused @_@ but with the rest of the video it makes sense and is awesome :up: Pretty pretty looking final footage as well.

and HOLY FUCK THOSE CREDITS ARE AMAZING.

That is all.

<3 <3 <3

I've seen the video a few times now in Pro and at NDK and honestly, i think it's your worst video. It feels rushed and under par compared to your others. The video started off as a story/drama/romance video about the two main characters which I thought fit the song very well but then you bring other people into it and it breaks the continuity.

That said, you did make it into the finalists in Pro and also won an award at NDK so thats gotta mean something right? While I was at NDK I heard a few people talking about the video and saying how much they loved it. I just didn't like it and thought it could've been a lot better, sorry.

/me patiently waits for Oct 12...

HOLY - YOU MADE A VALKYRIA CHRONICLES VID?! <3 <3 <3
will edit later.

Edit: yeay! great vid, as a massive fan of the franchise I highly approve. The Alicia and Welkin pairing wasn't as developed in the anime compared to the game, so I appreciate the direction of this vid and the scenes used. The beginning part of the vid built up the idea of war really well then you have the explosion of dramatic parts between the two midway until the end, so it was all good to me =) As a bonus I think you made this vid easy to understand to those who haven't watched or play the game since you followed the lyrics of the song and in some parts made it into your own story.

As a sidenote I recall Koop wanting to edit with this song and I mentioned VC to him when he said he was looking for a source with 'love found during war' glad you ended up making it XD

4.5/5

That was the first Valkyria Chronicles video that really kept me interested until the end. It truly deserved it's award :up:

I can't get this video play with neither VLC or CCCP.

Is this a new encoding I am not aware of or is something wrong with the file itself?

Just x264 + AAC encoded in MeGUI. :\ Maybe you didn't download the entire thing?

Oh wait. It's 720p. So it's not the file, it's me.

Okay nevermind, I know how to solve this problem...
