I think this is nearly perfect! Is there any way you could make a variation that leaves in the NCR Ranger? Just the slight extra at the end of the trailer would be awesome, since you make it all the way to the hill they're on. If you're up for it, a small bit of extra silence after the logo appears, before going into the perlman speech, would definitely help too! If not, It's a good solid clip as is!
Edit: Thinking about it some more, I miss the Strip intro bit, damn.. tough decisions. Great job on the editing though! I didn't even notice the change in music in the Perlman bit.
Making a variation would mean recutting eeeeverything, audio and visual, so it's probably not in the cards, sorry! But I did link to a couple of alternative intro mods, and AshenBonfire's has multiple versions so maybe one of those would fit? My playtester also suggested I remove the NCR Ranger specifically because it just added one too many questions for them as a new player who knows near zero about anything. (Which is fair, as the vanilla intro's NCR Ranger confused me back when I was a new player myself.)
I'm glad that music change worked, I was surprised and totally lucky with how well it worked out!
Oh jeez, well that's a bummer! No worries, I understand and I don't wanna ask something as tiring as that of you! I loved that tidbit, because it gives just enough information to know there's a bigger arc in the game than just Benny, but I think it's fair!
The music change worked wonderfully! Thank you for sharing this with us and for responding!
I really like the editing, the new beginning of the intro is done well. I do think the "War never changes" part however is a bit odd, with it going from "As the Republic grew so did it's needs" to skipping all the way to the end where it say's your character's predicament. It plays almost like when you skip dialogue from a character, it doesn't transition well imo, doesn't feel natural. Otherwise, it's a cool edit.
The way I looked at it, part of the needs of the Republic is a mail service, and since that's directly related to your character I opted to go straight there rather than have him explain every faction. That, and there's already a few mods out there that leave some more of that narration in, so I figured I'd do something different. Thanks for taking a look and thanks for the input!
