The title is very misleading to the point of scam. It says "FTL 2" while it shows "FTL 1" (obviously).

I have absolutely no idea what this video is about.

I'd say that from every possible viewpoint and by all standards your video is terrible.

Thank you (i am not trying to be smart) for the feedback (not trying to be critic) but could you say what I can specifically can work on?

Okay I can see why you think it is a scam but I'm confused about the FTL 1 thing because I am 95% sure that it is FTL 2.

Well, pretty much everything.

Sound: terrible sound quality and constant background noise

Video: choppy frame rate, which is really annoying to watch

Commentary: there is absolutely zero interaction with your viewers, you seem to be mumbling to yourself all the time without giving anything to your audience.

By "without giving anything to your audience" I mean:

Your video is neither informative nor entertaining. To reach your audience your video must be the latter, the former or both. Either this or you have a particular feat that makes you stand out, like really good skills. However, on the contrary, you are obviously new to FTL so that you don't have enough knowledge to make a informative video nor a particular skill to show up with (FTL is not all that much about skills anyway). When you try to be funny...well...(you're not).

Another point is that you need to train your voice to have a better projection.

Take a look at videos of people that know what they are doing. This might provide you with good insights on how to make a proper video (at least about FTL).

I'd suggest this one:

and this one:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KZBnOhAk ... ture=g-u-u

You might dislike the German accent on the 2nd link, but his videos (and the videos of the 1st link guy) have everything which your video lacks.

I might sound harsh but that's the only way I can give you feedback. Should I tone down just a bit and you would remain in the darkness.

Sound: There is a possibility that it could be fixed.

Video: The frame rates can't be upped which I am sorry.

Entertainment: I'm not trying to be funny... anyways, how will I be able to engage the viewers without being funny or breaking the fourth wall? I was a little new to the game but not terribly new. I watched videos and played it myself. Still I will try to take these ideas in consideration.

By the way, the latest FTL version is 1.02.6; there is no FTL 2.
