Here it is, The Oak That Falls! It's much better set up than Celestial Crossroads already, and I'm very much looking forward to telling this story. ;v; It's a collab Nuzlocke between me and ~Crashcon. He handles music whilst I handle art, and we're both working on the plot together. It's been very useful to have another person working with me, and has made multiple aspects many times better than they would have been without him.
Also note that whilst the prologue is in a video format, the rest of it will be in comic form.
So! We hope you like the prologue and find it interesting enough to stick around. ;D

Whelp, I finally am commenting on this besides on skype - and I want to say that this is brilliant, first. It is absolutely brilliant and I'm very sure that this'll be a good project given that you don't give up on it, dammit, don't give up on it, ever, dammit, there's been too many good nuzlockes that quit, dammit! *cries in corner*
The music is really fitting for the atmosphere (Crash got some serious composing skills there) and the animation is very well… cut? In the sense that the scenes and such really flow well.
There are a couple of "panels" that seem a little strange, but I want to focus only on the one where we see the character who, I am guessing, is Gary, who am I kidding I know it's Gary, shouts "Gramps" - now, I can see why you would do that, but if you include text like that, it shouldn't be broken by the character in the middle, especially if it's one syllable. It breaks a lot of the momentum. It would have even probably been better if there hadn't been any text at all; after all, we can see he's shouting and with a muted intro that has a voiceover, it wouldn't be all that weird to have someone shout without showing what they are shouting. But if you wanted to keep the shouting, a slightly zoomed out pose would probably suffice to make it anything but "Gra - mps".
It doesn't make the intro bad, but it's just something that struck me when watching it. Details like that can be quite impactful, so just a piece of advice I guess.
Besides that - please continue this. It has the potential to be great and awesome and fantastic and whatnot and I don't want you to quit. Please.
Also, sorry for not chatting much on skype. OTL
