is this your blog ?
No, this is just some light-hearted game chat. People seem to find it amusing, so I keep making them.

Maybe just update 1 thread rather than making a new one each time. Or link them in your sig. Its a bit spammy, especially as it has nothing to do with combat strategy.
Still too poorly produced for me to enjoy a full episode so far, so i will leave that feedback. I strongly suggest getting some video editing software.
Well syncing audio is fairly easy to do. Any editing software should allow you to ungroup the audio from the video and allow you to sync it up before regrouping.Yeah making one thread would have been smarter. You're spot on there. I have the link in my signature, already, so I'll just leave it at that from now on and not spam topics on it.
Aside, I'm not sure exactly how to better edit live game play/chat, though... I tend to spend a lot of time into production for my Build Guides because it's kind of required, but unless I strip the audio from this and remaster it then put it back in (which would take about a week per video with my schedule), I really so not know what else there is to be done?

I also think you should resize your videos as not to get black bars down the side. Not sure how you would do this without stretching though. If your monitor doesnt support native 1080p then it may be worth downscaling to 720p and recording that natively. 720p is fine for youtube but it may be a bit of a pain to look at while playing so im not sure thats a good solution. The best solution is to get a 1080p monitor though i understand that may not be an option.
As for sound levels, i record my own voice with Audacity so i can manually adjust the volume if i need too. I often find my mic is either too loud or quiet relitive to the others in the chat when recorded and this is a good fix for that issue.
The audio is a bit of a time dump for a live video. I sync and master the sound for my Build Guides with Waves because I am recording independently of the video in a make-shift iso booth, but with live game chat trying to record over ends up with some rather fun echo issues that end up feeding back into my sound board (it's an unusual set up for a computer because I occasionally do music production work when out of my studio). The only way for me to fix it would be to have a second microphone recording independently of the game chat, which is honestly a silly amount of work for a light-hearted let's play video. When I said it would take a week with my work schedule, I was probably underestimating.
A lot of that comes down to how much time and money to I want to spend into a hobby I do for fun. If I was some big name channel making money off of it, then you better believe I would have no issue dedicating serious resources into it. At the same time I enjoy making the videos, so as I said, it's all about how much resources I can afford to dump into it.
The best solution I can muster for the audio is to not use my gaming headset mic, as I have noticed that I am either too quiet when it's passive noise-cancelling feature is engaged, or sickeningly garbled when the NC is turned off. The latter of the two was the case in this video. I will test some other mic options I have, but sadly most other mics I own at present are professional condenser mics that don't play well with video games.
However, the aspect ratio issue is well known and a rather big annoyance of mine. I have about a half dozen assorted 16:10 ratio monitors between my home and work, and my gaming monitor is the 16:10 equivalent of 1080p (1920x1200). I have tried changing the game resolution, attempting to record natively in 1080p, and changed the resolution in post-prod, but it either distorts the image or ends up with the pillarbox you see in my videos. I do plan to rectify this with a proper 1080p monitor very soon, but unfortunately until then I am at the mercy of the 16:10 aspect ratio.
Penguin, I do want you to know I appreciate the detailed feedback. All too frequently you either get too much positive feedback or not detailed enough negative feedback to properly improve.
Yeah chat, because as Inquisitors you guys suck slack :P
btw any plans for doing something team oriented? There seem to be enough character builds but unless for soloing there probably are many variations of working group on Perilous including varying builds.

edit: if you decide to run something like 4 Necros with Spirit Mark count me in.
I didnt know that there is a perilous game cheat! Ban them all! Cheaters needs to be banned asap!

I just want more #spiritmarkyolo
#SpiritMarkMasterRaceYoloUMadBroFTW?
Yeah, I only run that with my FadeShield2Win Arcane Warrior.

I do have some advanced role guides I am trying to put together. I've had a cold for the past couple of days (barely felt well enough to get a couple of matches in this evening), which sadly delays me a lot more than it should. Team dynamics, like what you saw at the end with me taking the Templar Commander for a little walk whilst the team handles business, is something else I will be highlighting with respect to the role to which that dynamic typically falls. One of the other matches I recorded tonight was were that dynamic failed: I was taking the Demon Commander for a walk, and instead of killing the adds, the PUG in the group was following the DC around instead and eventually drew it's aggro. I will likely have the first of the role guides out in a week or so.
And brah, do you even Spirit Mark? I don't think you can handle the amazing amounts of Spirit Mark my Keeper brings! (Lol just kidding)

There sadly is really cheaters in DAMP. I don't need to cheat because I have pro1337 super-awesome players to carry me! And bees! Because bees!
naw I was just joking. because I read your title as "Perilous Game Cheat" when I first saw it 
Well, I am genuinely curious how far would 4 Necros casting only Spirit Mark get ;)

Not very. I think its champion may have received a lengthy ban too.

Did he now? I just thought someone was all angry because no one agreed with him about Spirit Mark...

I am not very eager to try. I, myself, and several others have gone on at length about how well it works.

I got 4 days after our "altercation" in that thread. He doesn't appear to have logged on since then, so I'm assuming he got one too.
Wait for it...Trickshaw do you even know what you're talking about? You need to look in the sticky thread and then delete your comment.
But you're comment is ill informed, with no truth. You obviously have no idea what you're talking about.
I can't call you an idiot cos I'll probably get banned as I've already been warned. But you honestly talk some right pish.

Wow... Yeah I had no idea. And here I was making jokes at someone whom has no way to respond. That's in poor taste.
Make a new thread every video. It's not like the people commenting that it's "too spammy" are making daily threads, let alone posts, on "combat strategy". Beats the hell out of 1/2 the crap on this forum that gets posted anyway.
Also, this is my least favorite video of the series so far. You spent far too much time and effort epeening a mute AW for my taste. Not very classy.
Just sayin'.
You can call me what you whatever you want. I've got thick skin. You won't offend.
Opinions will differ. That's the natural order of discourse. You can say I'm an idiot, that's fine. Just like I can say no less than a dozen threads on the front page alone are either crap, regurgitated crap we've seen a dozen times over or just blatant whining.
That's not to include the lovely nuggets of stupidity peppered throughout the remaining "legit" threads.
But it's Mortiel's fun little videos that are cluttering up the all important MP combat strat section?
Riiiiiight.
I appreciate the support, however I would rather the presence of my videos on these forums not become a "hotly" debated topic. It's not like me neglecting to post a new thread for each video will stop people from occasionally clicking the link in my signature for "Game Chat" videos to see if there is something new, or subscribing to me on Youtube.
I will, however, continue to post my various guides, as those fit the title of the sub-forum. People can debate over my builds, which I encourage, but they won't be debating whether or not the guide should have been posted.
Aside, the AW in the group was really trying to be a bumper-jumper. I'm pretty sure he had brought a level 20 Arcane Warrior into a Threatening match, so I was not the one trying to "epeen". He could not hear us, fortunately. Regardless, if it appeared like I being rude, then that's what matters. I'll keep it a bit more "classy" in future videos. :-)
