K, here's what I think, going to rate from as a person that has played a Night Lord, and as a director.
First couple things I wanted to say that disliked in the entire video, was the effects. Ok ok ok, I admit, some minor effects and transitions makes movies and scenarios more enjoyable to watch. However, too much can ruin a video. This is what most Night Lord players does wrong in their videos, is too many effects. WAY TOO MANY.
Introduction was a bit over-done because of effect. I'd say, intro yourself in but make it around 30-45 seconds, maximum. That was over a minute, and it was the same effect. Had the effect faded away after 10-15 seconds or so, or slowly dimmed away.. wouldn't have been as bad, and less constraint on the eyes.
Another thing I didn't like was the variety of monsters and bosses. NLs vs:
Pap (always in NL videos)
Zakum (always)
Types of Rogs (always)
Newts (ALWAYS)
Skeles (ALWAYS)
I would have liked to see more CWK monsters, perhaps the ones guarding the castle. Or what about 'some' Time Temple monsters, yeah, maybe you'd die in a hit if you don't have enough avoid and HP, but still, could have been a funny blooper-moment that got your audience's attention, just for the hell of it!
As for the ending/credits, black-background is too plain. What about ....your Night Lord flash-jumping from one town to the next in slow-motion as the credits rolls, along with a very slow and soothing song?
Here's what I liked about your video the most, probably the damage and the fight with Leviathan. Leviathan is a new gMS boss, so putting that in a video, kudos! I loved the music as well, but I'd like to see some more transitions, maybe try more than one song.
