Total War Shogun 2 HD Online Commentary Battle Video 51 Spam and Cinema

[@Jonneh95]

Surely your best battle and commentary so far and the great cinematic is like the cherry on top of it all. Well done Heir!

[@JustCause94]

This video is golden, great battle and the highlights at the end just crowned this. Great work heir.

[@Duffieeee]

This is your best video yet, great choice of terrain and although your opponent didn't use his army to best effect you still did a great job of dealing with that build and I'd say it's probably your best battle that we've seen, great job man.

[@kartoffelsalat0]

highlight reel made my day that much better. I'm starving but I had to finish appreciating this all the way to the end. Well played and well edited good sir.

[@DrOman5596]

I'm digging the cinematic highlight reel. That would make an excellent regular feature. Thanks for making these videos!

[@Mahgwa]

My god what an amazing video, thanks for explaining what you did and why, and I really appreciate the cinematic replay at the end, very well done! AAA+

[@kaelim888]

Absolutely fantastic cinematic at the end i want to see more of those! Loved when the cavalry charged your opponents troops and you see the loans swords rout past the camera..one holding his wounds.

[@frederickthegreat2]

Thank you heir, it makes me very happy when I see one of your videos in my subscription box.

[@yubbone]

I'd never looked into this game prior to this video, but I must say that the gameplay combined with your thoughtful narrative and play-by-play has definitely got me interested. So many youtubers just don't understand how to properly narrate, so it's nice to see when people do it right.

[@EGIBDukeofWellington]

That cinematic highlight clip was INCREDIBLE! You are amazing.

[@LegionaryCohort480]

Seriously, this is one of the most beautiful battles I've ever seen! (keeping in mind that this is a game, not real war) I loved the tactical explainations by the way, that's what I love about this type of vid, you can watch the beauty unfold while learning something. Keep up the great work Heir! :D

[@gingerdan12]

@heirofcarthage this is the best shogun 2 video ive seen out of about 1000 odd. great piece of cinema especially the last shot of the man pierced by an arrow. excellent win, excellent video

[@91minno]

Oh man the last 6min. Are epic!!

[@TheTorah]

cinematic highlight real was so epic. definitely enjoying you experimentation with Vegas 11 heir!

[@frostythesn0wman]

Thank you for the videos! I've learned a lot from you since I started watching today! When I come home for the break I'll be building my new PC and the first few games I'll download on steam for my gaming rig will be shogun! Great videos!

[@LieutenantFuzz]

That was an amazing battle, Heir, as well as closing cinematic! :] It would be awesome to see more of those in future videos! :D

[@MrGoofie16]

I love the cinematic feel at the end. I know its time consuming, but wish you could some more vids like this

[@AnitaBeerstein]

excellent vid heir as always. more cinemas in battles like this would be cool

[@FakeMessiah27]

Awsome cinema! You got some very nice shots in there, like the one where the monks get charged from behind :). Keep it up!

[@Navitori]

17:02 That charge into enemy fire make me think about "The last Samurai"... Very nice videos ever since I happened to bump into one of your Rome videos. Good fortune to you ^_^

[@shadowrfox]

I hope you do more high reels like this in your future videos Heir. I love the graphics of this game, and your highlight reel, really show it off greatly

[@nauryu7]

Here you can clearly see the earlier battles were fought. Man on man, strength against strength. Your best friends die and still continue fighting for your home can still be seen. That's what wars were before. Great respect for them!! Thumps up if you agree ;)

[@DJYC21215]

Heir 1 thing i think you should mention is the morale shock when your OWN matchlocks are shooting near your men. Loan swords especially will rout near the general but samurai suffer too. All that missle fire at the rear demorlizes them.

[@Strongholder123]

Nice cinematic Heir! We all appreciate the effort

[@Susie_Legion_DBD]

Heir, please do a cinematic more often, that cinematic would have amazing alone, but when you throw in that music it has an emotional feel to it. Maybe it's just because I watched the last samurai a few days ago, but I shed a single manly tear.

[@Jablaibarbar]

great cinematics just showcases how beautiful the style and graphics of this game are. cant praise this game enough.

[@DiplexHeated]

Sweet battle Heir, we should play!

[@Iwoldie]

I just read that with the background music from lotr in the beginning, made what you said 10x more awesome.

[@pjz100]

The cinematic at the end was really nice. Great feel to it. Well done, particularly I enjoyed the music and the slow motion effects. Those matchlock charged in the rear with the cavalry (19:02) was really cool. I think CA should make it possible to disable all GUI when showing replays, the stuff up in the corners as well as a few tooltips took away a little of the movie feeling. You should definitely make more of this, perhaps an entire battle?

[@fuyocouch]

Sweet cinematic Heir, everything looks cool in slow-mo, and Shogun looks so good on Ultra graphics :)

[@FreakForFilmScore]

God, it's intimidating watching a rush army flow toward you, while you fumble to get into a good position to outmaneuver. You played excellently, Heir.

[@bronzeboy138]

First video I've watched of yours and i like it, good video!

[@metaloverlord07]

nice addition with the cinematic highlight reel.would like to see more of them in the online comms if you get the time heir

[@steeliorocks]

incredible cinematic video at the end...good luck ...it was beautiful

[@OmfgItsNannerpants]

Heir, i really think you should make more of the cinematic movies :) Perhaps make a little series of them?

[@Andromeda2694]

3500 man simulated battle and it's over in 6 minutes lol. I could never be able to manage everything at once. Very impressive, good sir.

[@Chickenhunter9]

YOOO Throw back to Heir's most popular online battle.

[@TheDutchspaceman]

awesome video again man, love the cinematic thing, you should do that more often!

[@yowman98]

that was awesome heir! one thing for the cinematic, when your filming it, have the "hide mouse" option on for fraps. the pointer was kind of distracting. but that was epic. :)

[@jclees1]

The cinematic at the end was great! :D

[@ihamptonii]

Great video.Subscribed to channel. Wonder how/if this could be used in the class room? Had friend who taught ROTC and he divided his class into teams. Each week he would have the various teams play a computer simulation executing one or two moves and the next class he would show the result each groups decision on the simulated battlefield. Not sure what the sim/game was, but since it was 2-3 years ago was not nearly as sophisticated as this. Would like your thoughts. Probably buy this game.

[@StephenTorrington]

That cavalry charge on the matchlock warrior monks was epic!

[@RTBGN]

I like watching your videos for tips and shit, because I am planning on playing the game online, but I am not very good right now.

[@AdmiralAlmond]

"Put men on a battlefield with odds stacked against them, and they will fight so hard it is likely that they will win." I believe something like that was in Sun Tzu's 'Art of War'.

[@Stefop]

Love ur vids man been watching them for a long time now! You could beat PoM with only ur general unit!

[@krbreece]

watching this video now i realize how grateful i am that those huge armies are no more

[@swordsmith54]

My idea for the naginata unit is "Stonwall Patchies" because of their armor. Not sure if it's all that great, but there's my two cents.

[@UrbanCohort]

Thanks for the breakdown of your line of thinking. I've got a match tomorrow against a friend (not going to be high level play on either side), but it'll be my first match. Maybe this'll prevent my losses from being complete routs.

[@RememberedOne]

That post was 3 months ago so of course its not still going to be on sale lol.

[@Enforcer95]

@HeirofCarthage The ending was beautiful, especially with that music. Nice vid :)

[@benjihero86]

Like the cinema scenes after the battle. awesome.

[@SMOOTHPlaythroughs]

great video heir now i wish youd make a vid on beating cav spams that destroys all the time way more so than loan sword

[@TheKamakazipenguin]

Cinematic was awesome made it seem like a movie

[@PatriotGabe]

just a tip for the sony vegas cinematic thing. you can shrink the edges of the screen in editing ever so slightly which gets rid of the time bar and the some of the other stuff in the left hand corner. It makes it look really professional and nice. Still great cinematic.

[@wilsoncornwallis4718]

The last part of the video was gorgeous.

[@HannibleBonaparte]

@HeirofCarthage ok now I seemwhat you meant by a sweet video. Very nicely played and edited :). One piece of advice--try to match the speed of play to the music (in this case very slow). Because you are adding in external music you can actually slow down a particular clip past normal slow motion (using Sony Vegas). I'm thinking of the enemy general death scene in particular. Now if you had a drums-beating, adrenaline-pumping kind of music, you may want to play a lot of the battle in regular m

[@LuiBei1994]

not only that you might wanna explain that katana have to charge or otherwise they will have a bit of a disadvantage

[@TheBoarderBrothers]

awesome ending Heir! of course the rest of the vid was as good as always too

[@bboycrazybrown]

wow. epic ending music. good work on the game and the cinema.

[@VieleFeindeVielEhre]

Heir: If you want your cinematic clips look really amazing, try the "cropping" function on Sony Vegas to cut out the rest of the battle interface, so that it looks like a real movie.

[@TrainLechoo]

I can see his general on his chair with his jaw hanging past his mask because his army fell like a monopod

[@SusCalvin]

How good are hero units in Shogun 2? The Kensei/sword saint in old Shogun could potentially stand up against a unit of low- to mid-grade melee troops. They were independent units, but I prefered using them in support of other assault formations.

[@PANDORASBOXRELEASE]

19:07 Pew pew pew.... pew.... AAAHHHH SHIT HORSE!

[@Omegaures]

Well probably he was referring to the fact that invaders often don't have that much valid reasons to try and conquear you.

[@CJTReviews]

Great Video! Keep Them Coming! :D Heir, have you ever watched "Deadliest Warrior"? Just wondering.

[@SyrupMabel]

That would be Desiderius Erasmus. Original quote was: "War is delightful to those who have had no experience of it."

[@pigspigs76]

19:08 was prolly my favorite part but I feel like you have potential for even greater extrapolation of battle footage... good lick Heir, your expectations have just been raised.

[@exactinmidget92]

that was epic, i totally forgot that this was a game and not a movie

[@blackjohnny0]

On start i played with naginata. Then monks, then katana samurai, and now katana ashigaru.

[@pixelllls]

part at the end was gud wiv the shots and the music and can u do 1st person more often as well

[@ionator1]

Soo good cinematic end I hope you will make more cinematic ends

[@blinkbb1223]

hey I am a big fan of your videos and I am trying to get my own KZbin channel going so I was wondering if I could do a video Response to this and maybe some other ones of yours to maybe help me out. If not I understand Thanks

[@Facade19]

Heir, another great video! Please do not stop posting them. By the way, love the ending. Out of curiosity, who is the artist and the name of the song at the end. Thank you!

[@Jazzingguys]

awesome video great little movie in the end it was beautiful =)

[@SyrupMabel]

There are very few wars that are that clean cut.

[@Y0uKnoWh0]

This video reminded me how cool this game was. BRB, gonna go play.

[@EmperorsOfWar]

Wow one of the nicest vids iv seen from you

[@LauraSuhonen]

Great battle, great cinematics, great commentary and a great commentator :) Oh, and the music was epic! What's the song called? :)

[@Gilgamesh417]

@corpral13 I never pack too many as well. All it takes is for your enemy to have either some matchlocks or warrior monks and with one good volley or battle cry, your morale drops. On the flip side, if you are a leadership general and rally and get into stand and fight, a loan sword army is a good idea. Fantastic attack stats, cheap and with the morale bonuses, you can actually stand and fight against better troops.

[@rhyseeroo]

I knew all along he was capable of it but i never suspected he would actually kill the word "fuck"

[@Fengdesigns]

This is more entertaining then actually playing the game!

[@EpicRandomDude]

@HeirofCarthage Look at this Katana Samurai who is doing like a tripple backwards salto xD Hillarious and kinda cool actually. Nice little experiment you made btw.

[@FahqYewToo]

really good cinematics, need to crop out that mouse and menu buttons though, i love using sony vegas =)

[@johnsonerica1990]

love the video now i got 2 questions: is this game better than empire tw? how many regions total are there in shogun 2?

[@demomanchaos]

Fall of the Samurai is a stand alone expansion.

[@insanecasts]

What was the song used i do shogun 2 vids and starcraft and i would like to use this kind of music

[@Brothercole1994]

Beautiful scenes at the end.

[@AnneOfManyNames]

On sale on steam right now!

[@1981SPL]

dude your getting really good at editing.

[@stsk7]

now it's a spy drone who can shoot a nuclear warhead with a press of a button

[@Sundorwave]

I just got the game, when you mentioned the vets if the unit dies are they gone for good? Also why do my explosions look so terrible or does playing on dx9 explain it?

[@LeftALife91]

Do spear retainers count for naginata troops? Always been curious about that.

[@Bayliss27]

Heir do you believe it is possible/playable to have naginata monks as a core for your army because ever since the nerf on them I have found its very hard to win with a nag monk core and i just dont see nag monks used as a core anymore its more often what you use which is a samurai nag core. So do you believe that monk nag cores are dead?

[@Druzhina89]

It looks so pretty and colourful in a videogame, right? With the flashy uniforms and weapons, the anime blood effects etc. ;)

[@ECPproductions100]

@Exposetheworld Well, thanks for checking out the channel. I enjoyed watching your 'one' video

[@ponch01966]

well the cinematic seems pretty awesome as it looks like as if you would be in a real battle with some views great job!

[@93wildkid]

You played this fight like Takeda to Kenshen in the Sengoku period

[@mikeAD1101]

love your vid heir of carthage so good !

[@Brothercole1994]

Heir please do more Cinematics. They are fantastic.

[@DClean]

You realize that is a compliment. N008
