Just judging the video on it's entertainment factor, it was solid in the beginning, but then too many PvP scenes without the witty dialogue that we all know and love.

But oh man the ending was worth it. "sooo I've been workin on a pvp video...wanna see it?"

I played on the same server as Happyminti and in Nerf Sap 7 (the only video I watched) he was one of the better geared rogues on the server at the time of the filming. Also he never attacked anybody from the top guilds. Most of his targets make poor decisions, like healing classes not healing in a 2v1 situation. If anything it's a testament to how bad the general WoW populace is.

But this thread is about Roguecraft not Nerf Sap so i'll just leave it at that. I think Happyminti is now playing a warlock on Zuluhed in a guild called <Seraphin>

QFT. It's strange that even the people on EJ completely missed the point. I thought it was extremely well done, although 75% of the fight scenes could have been edited out without losing any of the impact.

Loved the first two, this one seemed abit too PvP movie esque to me though.

I don't think that much could've been cut - I'd be more conserative and say 50%? but on principle, agree.

Something I liked were the solid put ons of the other warlock, the warlock versus rogue (paranoia), and most importantly, the shadowbolt crit deal. Maybe I don't watch enough WoW videos, but I thought the whole four screen gimmick (and picture-in-picture gimmick for the warlock versus rogue) was pretty well done, but if you'd gone that far, wouldn't you beg the question of how to tighten that test up a little more? I appreciate that part of the point is "Oh boy, 5k shadowbolt, here's the actual time required to even get off all those shadowbolts." But... after the first four, maybe it would've been a solid place to tighten up in editing?

Or to borrow a line from Futurama, "Well, it took two hours to write. I thought it'd take as long to act." The shame about editing something into a gold star production is letting go of a lot of time.

But I'm with you and Gokie about the entire thing being an intentional put on and satire. I kinda thought the rogue was mouth breathing...

And the whole paper rock scissors bit should be clipped and made into its own google video for future reference forever. "But when rock hits level sixty, apparently it beats paper and scissors, except scissors is invisible so rock can never find it anyway."

Edit: Just to fess up, I watched the Roguecraft ep 2 for the first time immediately afterwards, so apparently I've jumbled them in my memory.

As someone who is featured (read: ganked) in a couple of Minti's videos, I'll say that they are entertaining at least. But like any other pvp video, he features only the clips where he wins. I think I get absolutely ganked going up the MC chain in Nerf Sap 5 or something like that... you don't see the part after that though where he gets horribly demolished. And a lot of the people that he tears apart in his videos are well known for being terrible at PvP (myself included). But his videos were very well made and are fun to watch.

That's always been one of my favorite scenes from any PvP movie, along with most of Laintime's world pvp footage.

Sunken's newest movie is pretty good.

Yeah, as often he makes that point, he never did any real demonstrations of Rogues in battlegrounds, you know, doing what they're supposed to do. If he's educating the idiots, he hasn't fully done his job.

Are idiots worth educating?

Continuing the derail, anyone know any good sites for getting gg/sc3 tournament (or general high level play) videos?

Did you miss the end of the video where he makes sure to mention he only went after geared out characters who are known for being the best the server has to offer? What else does he have to do to show he's going after some decent competition. If his competition sucks thats because they are surprised and making mistakes because of the surprise.

I will admit I'd like to see some fights where he gets jumped first and manages to win anyway. You can't really expect to see that in these types of videos. And anyway, Rogues are meant to get the jump in a fight. Its part of their class strength. If you want to see a melee class that does well with no stealth, watch a freakin fury warrior vid.
