Reviews for Zelda UO BETA [REMAKE]: Episode 1

[AnDrew19787]

I must say, there is some major improvements made in here. And why wouldn't there be? It's a remake, where you can take what mistakes you made or things you didn't like in the old version and make them better, combined with all the knowledge and skills you have acquired since then (6 years in this case).

Backgrounds: Excellent (for YT's version obviously)
Voice Acting: Much better
Music: Great
Animation/Flash models: Much better

The extended script lets you ease into the character intros better. I can also see Link and Saria's running around as a training session a lot more now, so it was a good move to extend that scene especially. The motion blurred shots were a great touch too.

The only thing that actually bugs me is the inaccuracy between subtitles (which have a good OoT feel) and what the characters actually say. From what I can tell, voices are done absolutely last. I recommend saving the subtitles until after getting the voices, or at least update them.

Did I mention how much I like the menu screen? X3

I realy hope this is you restarting the series rather than just comparing your new skills to your old ones, none the less great improvments

(I think the hats should have been waving in the air when running though to make it look like they are actualy moving rather than running on a tredmil :p)

Looking forward to the remainder of the remade episodes!

I remember seeing this from way past, so I decided to check out the old work after watching the remake. The animation, artwork, and voices really have improved by leaps and bounds. That said, I think the artwork and voice acting could use some polish. Happy to see this series get a reboot though, I really enjoyed them.

You're back? I honestly thought you weren't going to even touch the LoZ stuff again, yet here you are. I few weeks ago I decided to visit memory lane (old Newgrounds videos) and I remembered that I used to watch this. Then I read the news that you were doing a remake. What made you come back?

Glad you're doing this again. You're animation seems to have improved greatly over the last few years. But the question is, will you actually go past the Deku Story Arc? And will you fill in that weird gap with the dragon fight scene?

I think I will serve as a critic, hope this is ok. Don't worry I don't bite.

CRITICS POINTS:

Art and Design----- The animation looks well polished and contains lush colors. Beautifully done!

Sound----- Voice acting seems pretty good, but I recommend the voice actors project more. It feels like the music sometimes blurs away the dialogue, but this is less often. Be ecstatic!!!

Video Length----- Are you going to make this EXACTLY like last time? The first few original episodes were just as short. Some barely had any action, which is what happened here as well. Try making the videos a little longer... long enough for satisfaction in terms of action and plot development. In the original episodes, we don't see forshadowing until the second or third episode. That should normally be something that starts like in episode 1.

And with that, I give you a 4.5/5 . I will be awaiting for the upcoming installment. Good luck.
