Yeah I do, I always did and people still want to see it as a stand alone. And I understand what you mean by jumping right into it. I used the first scene of Act 4 to give a quick flash back in terms of what happened in the 3rd book. Not in depth but enough to paint a slight picture of the situation the world is currently in.

A lot of it was my fault, as I was writing the scripts like I would write the novels. Where it's more character development through the dialogue and such. I learned my lesson with the first few episodes that, the type of writing does not translate well to an episodic flash series >_>. This episode though, which is expected to be completely finished by October is going to be a lot more fun.

And the scripts to come 5 and up I actually included direction, another mistake I made in the past, I never gave direction to the VAs, just was like "here's a script" lawl. That's my bad. But it improves. The first two scenes of this are the shortest. The next one will probably be massive.

Full episodes are usually 30 minutes. They're way too long file size wise to put up here and each episode will usually be longer than the 16,000 frame limit. The pacing is actually fine, but seems much slower when it's posted scene by scene.

This episode is different, there's only 3 scenes script wise but will probably cut into more for size restraints.

I put up each entire episode, full format on my site. Watching it together as a single episode is how to properly watch them, but I put them up on NG scene by scene as I finish each one. Script wise the first 3 Acts were relatively slow in terms of action in compared to 4 and up.

I write this as I wrote the novels, so character development is usually shown through the dialogue, etc. But like I said, watching it as a singular episode kinda kills that slow pacing. But I understand how it feels slow since no matter what I say, as long as each scene is posted individually people will take them as single entries. But until I find a way to submit an entire 30 minute episode in one shot it'll have to be done this way. I have some ideas on how to pull it off, but I'm not entirely sure it'll work on NG.

But yeah, this episode is unique in how the first two scenes are short, though the first scene of each episode is usually about the same length before the opening. The 3rd scene itself, considering its content is about 15 minutes on its own.
