A little more demo editing fun.  Big thanks to all that helped, especially Leo and all his Perl scripts!

Everybody, let me tell you something: Angelus Animi is insane. This is no "demo editing", this is demo abusing. Angelus makes the client cry every time a demo is played. The demo for that last shot has over 1400 player models in it, and is 57MB in size.

Amazing, a crazy amount of characters, and so full of heart. This shows this is not "just a game", but a continuing community. Thank you.

There are no words...

That just may be bigger than the demo records of Arcana's shutdown event I have..

Thank you for this monumental video.

:D
I'm all dressed up with nowhere to go
Walkin' with a dead man over my shoulder

Waiting for an invitation to arrive
Goin' to a party where no one's still alive

As long as somebody keeps making up stories for it, the City isn't gone.

My Main Capt. Obvious runs into the mass and at 2:35 disperses shadows to reveal his purple and white regalia.

I was watching with my 4 year old daughter and she recognized the toon and yelled "THATS YOU DADDY"

I was shocked and delighted.

This video made my day.

No tears friends! Hope! And for me not even hope but certainty. One day we will all be home.

Next year in Paragon.

I've watched this like fifteen times already, and it punches me square in the feels every time. And I still go back for more, every time. Gahhh!

Really, really well done, Angelus. It's beautiful.

If we ever get COH back that song should be our anthem!

Careful! There are onion ninjas hiding in those shadows!

I kept from crying until I saw Ms. Liberty walking toward the training podium....I lost it. Angelus has embodied the way we feel about not giving up, and keeping hope alive that we will go home someday. The longing to have my City back has never diminished. Few of my life's losses have hurt so much, or been so missed. I won't give up hope. Thank you, Angelus, for another beautiful video.
Listen to the 'mustn'ts'. Listen to the 'don'ts'. Listen to the 'shouldn'ts', the 'impossibles', the 'won'ts'. Listen to the 'you'll never haves', then listen close to me... Anything can happen . Anything can be.

Me too.  Fantastic work.

If only....!

Also love when the evil NCSoft shadows start to run away.

It's been only about a year, but until I watched this I had forgotten the whole cooperative and helpful spirit that was always a part of CoX teams -- something I have not found quite to the same degree in other MMOs.  This film really highlights that well.

Timelord Tom

Amazing work, AA.

Beyond that, I'm at a loss for words.

Relitner

I don't have the words to describe how amazing this is. If only NCSoft could see...
in nomine Patris, et Filii, et Spiritus Sancti amen

Which brings to mind this proverb - "There's none so blind as those who will not see".

That made me think of something. Hindsight being 20/20. I wish NCSoft would of told us, we don't want to fund a marketing department for this game. If you want it to be popular, you'll have to make trailers, magazine ads....ect for it. You make it we'll pay to have it circulated.

Maybe we players that can make videos like this. I can only imagine what kind of gameplay trailers they could of came up with.

you don't have to imagine. Just look for the works of our own Samuraiko. Her game trailers quite often outdid the ones from P. Studios.

Your right, I completely forgot about those videos. It' been so long since I've watched them. Sorry Samuraiko for forgetting about your awesome videos. :(

I'm posting this video to my Facebook today because it was awesome, and in a way that's what every successor project, Icon, the efforts Iron Wolf have posted about ... that's what they're all trying to do.

Chase the Shadows away.

And someday-- somehow-- WE WILL DO IT.

'CAUSE IT'S WHAT WE DO. :D

Wow, that was really beautiful
I loved your character designs

Heck, it's been a few months since I last watched the video and I'm tearing up just reading the comments while the video and music play in my head.

Watching it a year later, still brings tears to my eyes. ;.;  :'(

(That doesn't change the fact that it's hella good... I'm just saying.)

I created it just for the video.  Didn't really give any thought to making it available (didn't think there would be any demand).  I will dig through my art files and find a decent sized image to upload.

I would love to see one of my toons in one of these, but I lost ALL my CoX stuff in a house fire just 3 months after shutdown.  So, I don't even have my original planner files, or anything.

Lately, I've re-watched "Unity" (inspiring) and "Remains" (heart-breaking; then inspiring) several times. I am SO homesick right now, and more than ready to go home.

I've been showing this video to some of my friend's sons.  They are already interested in jumping on if and when CoH comes back.
