allow me to give you some constructive criticism: first of all, noone has time for your 2 minutes of bla-bla at the beginning. second: you're (at the time the screencap was made) worse than i am and i have never played this before today, and have only used the pen tool for tracing outlines in ps a few times (which makes me a total noob). my point is, you're kinda wasting people's time, you're not explaining anything... do you get where i'm going? anyway, hope i didn't offend you in any way, that wasn't the point.
Hi Robert. Thank you for taking your time to leave some criticism on this video. If I were RU-vidr I would very much appreciate all feedback concerning my content. However, your feedback did not contain any sort of advice. Maybe in the future you could provide some solutions to the problems you're facing watching this video. If I may, below are some suggestions on how to make your criticism more useful for the receiver. Start off with something positive. - Hi there uploader. Thank you for taking the time to show the solutions to this game. It's a pretty hard game and as a beginner I really need to get some hands-on practise with the pen tool. Then ease the criticism in:. - However, your intro might have been a bit long for such a short video. Try to make the criticism more about your opinion than about the other person. - I think it makes the video a little longer than it should be. I'm also having issues following along what you actually did to solve the puzzles. Then give a suggestion, and turning that 'I'm a total noob and I'm better than you' into something more positive. - Maybe it'll be more helpful to me as a viewer to have you explain what buttons you press to create certain lines. I'm confident in my ability to solve these on my own, but a bit more clarity would be really useful for the parts I'm stuck at. Try to avoid things like "nobody has time for this" or "you're worse than I am". They're not constructive and actually come across as very negative. If you're inclined to make a statement like this, please note there are nicer ways to bring your point across. Maybe try 'I feel like the video would have been of much higher quality if you tried another take to get all the kinks out'. The uploader in question uploaded the video for free and with the sole intent to help. In some cases it's better to just let your frustrations go and move on. I do however appreciate the fact you stated twice that you meant no harm or insult with this piece of criticism. That shows you actually meant well and your comment was not meant to directly insult the uploader. I hope this piece of criticism was helpful to you and if you have any more questions, feel free to reply to this comment thread.
