Metal Gear Taru: Guns Of Altana

XP'ing Has Changed.......

Back Then,Things were different.

We Weren't Apart Of The System. The Was No Form Of Control.

XP'ing....Has Changed...

I've Made Many Enemies By XP'ing

But...

Will I Be Able To Survive This One?

--------------------------------------

METAL GEAR TARU: Guns Of Altana

Thought Of as once dead after the incident at Shadow Bastok. Liquid Taru returns and is brewing a plot, but what? For what purpose has he even returned?

Solid Flea has beaten Liquid Taru once, but is it possible to defeat him twice?

Solid Flea must gets to Jeuno immediately to meet up with OtaGalk to find out just what it is Liquid Taru is planning.

---------------------------------------

Hello. I got an idea to do this quite a few day's ago. But do to not having time and a working computer, it has been held off.

You'll notice some mistakes like when Solid Flea is talking it says Liquid Flea instead, didn't catch that till later on.

Metal Gear Taru: Guns Of Altana is a comedy adaption of Metal Gear Solid. I figured this would be fun thing to do,especially having Snake's role being filled in by a TaruTaru.

This is more of an intro leading into a storyline in the Metal Gear Taru world.

Idea's have been going around in my head to either make this a series or full length feature film. I guess it depends on if anyone would actually watch it.

Don't want to make something no one will watch lol.

Editing was somewhat rushed and not quite polished to the way I wanted it to be. But it will do.

So hope you enjoy the video and if this gets received well enough. I'll make it into a series or a full length movie. Which of course would feature adaption's of people's favorite Metal Gear Solid Characters.


-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

PS. Yeah it ain't the greatest but suites me and feel free to check out my other videos on my youtube page.

They wouldn't.

First rule of comedy: It has to be funny.
First rule of entertainment: It has to be entertaining.
First rule of fan videos: Quality counts
First rule of parody: It has to actually resemble what you're parodying.

If anyone does watch it, it will be purely for the "Haha, holy shit, look how far off the mark this guy is" factor. When something is so bad, it actually becomes funny just to laugh at the guy who made it.

Never rush things if you want positive feedback, take your time and perfect your work, after all, if you dont want to bother with it, why should anyone be bothered to watch it?

Re: Metal Gear Taru: Guns Of Altana

That opening is way too long, then followed, by another opening! I got bored before anything started.

Re: Metal Gear Taru: Guns Of Altana

You asked for feedback, don't get pissy when the feedback you get isn't what you want to hear. People are going to voice their opinions. If you can't take the critique, don't ask for it.

Don't make anymore videos if you can't take constructive criticism.

Well since you're acting like a child now, whom I have little respect for, I'll tell you exactly how I felt.

The text is annoying to read, change the font and maybe pick a new color. The opening text following by another opening is too long. Loses attention. The editing is drab (you said so yourself). It leaves the viewer asking questions, which is most often good, but in this case bad. Some examples of positive questions: "I wonder if {main protagonist} will make it out alive for a sequel?" Example of a bad question: "WTF did I just waste 3 and half mins watching?" The storyline was a bit... well lets just say it'd be better without a storyline.

In the positive light, taru tarus are goofy.

Actually I have already made better, Hell. I made better before I even started studying film making.

If you want to get better, accept criticism sent at you and learn from it, otherwise you will just end up wasting your own time.
