Here is its eulogy, a collection of the kind words written about it while still among the living. They shall live on forever in its place.

Ooh boyo where to begin... I like this. A lot. Your style is definitely right up my alley. The idea here is pretty e x c e l l e n t, BUT I've got a few notes for improvement.

First off, for the love of all that is good and sacred in this world, PLEASE equalize your audio and spend more time on mastering it. I had to turn up the volume all the way to hear the dialogue at the beginning and then got a lil spook and speaker blast when it just comes out of nowhere being loud. I get that there's a huge post-humour quality in those distortion bursts, and believe me that's not beyond my appreciation. I think it's great, it just poses an actual legitimate risk to the health of your viewers' speakers, not to mention their hearing if they're wearing headphones. So just make sure to put a limiter on their to make sure your audio never goes above 0 dB.

Next, that whole part with the Argonian name generator was seriously funny, and I loved how long it was stretched out for, but that watermark from your screencap software in the corner is distracting. Consider seeking another software to get the same effect without the gross watermark. Same thing with the video of the seagull, why did you not just download the video file and drop that in your composition instead of recording it with the screencapper? Weird choice if you ask me.

There's plenty of other areas with room for improvement, but I just think this deserves some praise at this point. That joke at the end... At first when the tombstone shows up I was like "come on, where are you going with this?" But then the punchline it and I genuinely lol'd out loud. Seriously well done. I like the drawing styles as well, it just fit the mood of this piece so well. And the total lack of fear to venture into those weird, dare I say psychedelic, niches just pandered to me like no other.

Overall, you did really well with this. Honestly, just work on that audio mastering and I won't hesitate to rate even higher! Good work :) keep 'em coming.
