"An Egg" is a short Cinematic based on the story Andy Weir of creepypasta.com where life is different to what we know.

"Its a short and good dramatic cinematic, I love the story and giving it a 3D view on a warcraft scale is excellent but since its cinematic maybe giving some scenes to some climatic dialogues would give more atmosphere to the story, some close ups would be great but all thanks to low graphics of warcraft 3 it may look silly, but still its a shot."

Terrain

"There's no much terrain visible right now, only just the death of the observer and the fog view of ethereal world, but I can give a fair rating for this since you look more closely in reading the dialogues than view of spheres but my idea of giving scenes to each of it may be better."

"Overall, it is creepy and well explained but the start and end cinematic has those UI still shown do remove those to give impact on the cinematic setting, also void the background music it evaporates the serious story with warcraft 3's classy soundtrack, either remove it or replace it with a more ambient soundtrack/music that is fitting for this, so for now its useful."

Behold! Le review of Hell_Master XD. BTW, I did understood the story in this cinematic and I must say it is quite funny at some point and in some emotional which is a nice mix. Here is my review:

An Egg Review
[+] Good Points:
-Terrain is really looking good for this cinematic and fits the situations in the game but to add a suggestions, are you into making the terrain better and HQ? If yes, you could try changing everything to HQ doodadd destructibles and such... including tiles, and all units, it will really make a realistic touch into your cinematic.
-Of course, the grammar is really good..lol :b
-Cnematic really has a deep meaning for me which is really interesting to find out.
-What interests me more is you giving a 1 minute chat after the cinematic ends. This will give the players to discuss the cinematic or random shitz. Nice job really!

[-] Bad Points:
-I can see that it is really a small map but why is the size of the map so big? The heaven part really covers much of the place to be honest. I suggest making it smaller.
-No offense but I think the Minimap Preview is not attractive enough so suggestion is add one.
-The units cannot be really seen at the White fog and together with the strong Transparency. I suggest lessen the tone of the fog or transparency.

[] Suggestions:
-Terrain is really looking good as I say but I do think, this can still be improved which we know that there is no perfect terrain. =)
-You should try lessen the Map Size. Its too big for a short cinematic that only covers two place.
-Make the game attractive and pull more audience and what I suggest is add a minimap preview image on this one.
Overall, I really did like cinematic so much. The terrain is really looking good in each scenarios and the way the story was told is great but I do think this needs more attraction and also a proper transparency for the units. Rated 3/5 and +4 REP!

Voting for Approval! Happy mapmaking and good luck!

If the map size is smaller, you can see the units and the black edge of the map, which is pretty ugly.

On it!
-The units cannot be really seen at the White fog and together with the strong Transparency. I suggest lessen the tone of the fog or transparency.
Well it's heaven, ya' know!
