@Malurth 3 жыл бұрын

wow, sick TAS. great work! that being said IMO you should work on the vid's title; the 'very hard all star' part is completely buried and that's the main hook so it should prolly be front and center. perhaps something like "Luigi beats All Star Very Hard by" etc. also maybe say 'almost absolutely' instead of just 'absolutely' cuz it can feel a bit like a bait and switch. just some food for thought.

@PracticalTAS 3 жыл бұрын

Thanks for the feedback. I wanted to target the phrase "Luigi wins by doing absolutely nothing" since it's a really really common search term. Targeting All Star Very Hard would make sense for my subscribers, but if I'm targeting that wider audience then most viewers won't even know what that is before clicking. As for the "bait and switch", I did put "(nothing to his opponents, at least)" in the description, but I can see how it could still be misleading. Maybe I can replace it with something like "Luigi wins by doing absolutely nothing (almost)" or "Luigi wins by doing absolutely nothing to CPUs"? The title is so long, I can only add 10 more characters to what it currently is.

@Malurth 3 жыл бұрын

@@PracticalTAS yeah thinking about it a bit more I think the optimal way to surface the 'all star very hard' is to find a way to work it into the thumbnail, at least the "very hard" part. there's not even enough room to fit both concepts (luigi winning doing nothing, beating all star very hard) in one title without part of it getting cropped, but the thumbnail is free real estate.
