Seeing my game featured scared me half to death. But shoot yeah, looking over the trailer for my game I do realize that I added WAY TO MUCH glitching effects for transitions xP but it's interesting about adding in game audio as "flavor crystals" definitely like that one. Also need to just show pure gameplay or pure text so it's not to overstimulating, and then the last bit about just showing one or two social media channels is a God send. I'll take it all to heart and work on making my marketing skills better! :D

Toveri yeah, you don’t want to talk down to your audience or explain things they’ll easily understand. It doesn’t feel good to be on the receiving end, and by calling out the mundane as worthy of calling out, it makes the game seem very very generic.

Oh yeah! I got lucky to get in, was worth waiting until the end. Thank you so much for featuring and the kind words. Some really great advice too, I think the thing I personally miss the most from indie game trailers is the SFX. Sound is 50% of the experience and devs seem to forget that way too often. Thanks again Jonas for inspiring us, can't wait for the next video.

Does it actually look (mostly) photoreal during gameplay, instead of just during the trailer?

Actually in the Firewatch trailer, the beggining part was the worst one for me, it felt like he is playing with us and after he threw the fireworks, nothing really happent... They just tumbled aside. But the rest of the trailer was amazing, it had a form and the story and gameplay was nice.

everything I was thinking watching the trailers they pointed out, so thats really cool to see how in touch with the audience Derek Lieu is

"Environments are only interesting if we know what's happening in them" This is very interesting. Because I've made similar arguments for films and film making. You see, without the characters and the plot of the film, what are we looking at exactly? An environment with some interesting events? World building is good, but only if you can do so while impacting the story you're trying to tell. So it seems that video games are not much different. Except in this case, your characters and stories equate to your gameplay. Fascinating.

And that is simply an incorrect perspective in my own opinion. But hey man i really appreciate you responding to my comments. :)

Can he review the new crab game trailer ?

21:17 for you legends

Awesome content!

At 39:50 he uses Untitled Goose Game as an example of a game that doesn't look really pretty but succeeded, and this was to explain that that was rare and not to expect it. I have an issue with this thinking because Untitled Goose Game does look appealing visually despite it's low poly style. The reason being that your graphics don't need to be the prettiest thing your audience has ever seen. Your graphics simply need to be visually appealing for the gameplay you're trying to make. It's a question of cinematography. Untitled Goose Game's graphics are gorgeous for a cartoon concept like playing a goose thief simulator which is what this game is designed to be. If you're not making a game that suits a lower poly visual style, then absolutely the art will hold your trailer back. The low poly and bold color aesthetic of Untitled Goose Game is not bad art or visuals. It's perfect art for that game concept and immediately sets the tone for the trailer. If you want to use low poly graphics, you need to match your gameplay to that same aesthetic.
