Rylight: The Chronicles of Pain first episode can be found here http://eq2vault.ign.com/static.php?page=Videos

BUT BEFORE OR WHILE YOU DOWNLOAD IT PLEASE READ THIS......

1. This first episode is just that, a 30 minute+ episode without any commercials, so grab some popcorn and a drink and enjoy the show.

2. Do not expect to know the entire plot after this movie, remember this is a series, and you will not know everything after watching the first episode, this first episode is just to show you the extent of Rylight's ablities.

3. The first half of the movie IS FIGHTING mostly, so hang tight before you think that it is all senseless fighting and no plot. There is alot more narrative and story toward the end.

4. The movie sounds best with headphones, BUT BE WARNED, sadly I didnt quite get all the volume unified, and dont want to make you deaf by accident. ALSO AFTER THE CREDITS, there is a scene that is really hard to hear, so you might want to adjust the volume up for that part, eventually I will remake that part with subtitles before episode 2.

THINGS YOU DONT HAVE TO KNOW BUT MIGHT WANT TO.

1. Those who have played EQ1 and EQ2 well have a better idea of the story line and the plot, espically if you were post ruins of Kunark. The movie centers around mostly the Idea of an Iksar, but expect to see many other races later on.

2. The Voice of the Main character is subject to change. Simply put, I was not entirly satisfied with the main characters voice (mine) and will be painstakingly working on that. Also I will be getting other friends to help with the other characters, cause its just not that fun hearing the same voice the entire movie.

3. Episode 2 will be much better. Im not going to lie about it. THIS WAS THE FIRST MOVIE I EVER MADE, I had little Idea how Fraps worked, and little idea how to use windows movie maker, but I have learned alot since then, and I will make sure the next episode is not only better quality but a smaller file and download

4. This is probably the most fighting you will ever see in this movie series, after this there will be alot more story and drama, still, whatS EQ2 without fighting?

5. Though the Scales of Pain helped, and get much credit, the ideas of this movie are from one Iksar alone and do not entirely represent the Scales of Pain as a whole, in other words I dont want any softskins ranting on my guild in the game, remember its only a movie.

FEEL FREE TO CRITICIZE OR COMMENT ON THIS THREAD, AND EXPECT A DIRECTORS COMMENTARY WITHIN THE FOLLOWING WEEK ON THIS THREAD. ENJOY THE SHOW AND LET ME KNOW WHAT YOU THOUGHT OF IT:smileyvery-happy:

Yahooo!! Finally got the movie up, I am so exited to watch it, ofcourse its jus ton 1% complete now and will finish in 4 hours O_o .. yes, my connection sucks.. But I will be able to watch it tomorrow morning.
Congratulations on the film, must have been alot of work, we'll see how that ahrd work came out. Its nice to have people that even without knowing about movie edition or anything can get so into it that they can come up with something so cool. Just like me, I will be also making my future first movie, and I thank Rylight for all the help and suggestions on the things I needed SMILEY ..

Great, by the end of writting this its already on 2% !! SMILEY .

Good Luck!

Just watched it - very good job! Nice editing, I loved the part with you doing the spinning assault thing on the running orc. But, the voice acting had me laughing to be honest. Though, you do make a good orc! SMILEY

Weglanir · 07-13-2005, 07:48 AM

Well done for being your first movie!

It was very fun watching it! :smileyhappy:

Keep up the good work!

nice move.. very nice.. one comment i would like to say is that the fight scenes can be long and after awhile, boring. WOuld be nice to shorten it if possible.

Rylight · 07-14-2005, 09:16 PM

yeah, like I said, this will most likely be the most fighting you'll ever see in the series, oh and congrats on your 100th post, your now a master!!

harkoli · 07-14-2005, 10:00 PM

oh heh thanks. i didnt notice that post count. :smileyhappy:

There was one action scene I was really impressed in is charging of the Iskar and the Orc killing him instantly with the use of special. Way cool!

Xakkoriz · 07-15-2005, 01:05 AM

Man that was great! I like the preview and that was even better. I play an Iksar Shadowknight on the Oasis server named Xakkoriz Dreadscale and I've made up alot of lore about him but never gotten the chance to make anything like this. Awesome Job!

srtubagi · 07-15-2005, 07:58 AM

Excellent job! My only criticism is that youre right...the main characters voice is kinda odd. I like that you tried to incorperate the hissing on the S's, but it just sounds like his voice is forced and akward because youre lowering your voice! Maybe if you talked at your natural pitch it wouldnt feel so akward. I loved the orcs voice tho, it was very fitting. I absolutely loved the movie, im going to keep it downloaded and i cant wait to see the next!

Edit: I remembered...I wanted to mention that at one point he says 'thule' to refer to his god...but from lore ive read it seems that they usually use the first name (like cazic). Plus, thule could mean terris!

oh yea, and that kill with one swing thing was freakin awesome.
