I love the plague doctor, I love the idea of an omega character being compassionate in their motives and seeking to end pain.

I would LOVE to see the Plague Doctor fully fleshed out, and I also really enjoy the idea of the T-rex human hybrid guy, I bet those would both be super fun characters.

I didn't realize you had drifted away from character design because these videos didn't do well. Your character swap videos and character design based on original text were the reason I fell in love with this channel! So people please like/watch this and other character design videos because in my opinion they truly are the best and it's something I've been missing a lot from this channel!!

Of the 4 new faction members we didn't see fully fleshed out in this video, I personally like:
- The Judge
- The Plague Doctor
- The Witch or The Oni
- The Insect Queen or The Blob

I quite like The Blob in particular since it allows for some unique physical properties, opens the doorway for something like shapeshifting into different forms, and healers are always a good archetype to have around, especially early on.

So many good concepts. Also, chubby elf, that's a first, but in all seriousness I love the little old lady who just wants to grow her garden, wherever she feels like growing it.

I HAVE FEEDBACK/ A PITCH! You should add resin rings around the bases of the minis in the colour of their faction. Your minis are great for painting as you’ve shown but there is a lot of minis and not everyone’s going to paint them. I’m scared for non artists this game will be difficult to play because there will be no difference between the minis at a glance leading to trouble identifying who’s controlling who. (I know they have unique models but in practice it’ll just be a sea of detailed gray). So I suggest adding a small resin ring on each mini in the colour of the faction. That would make identifying the character easy and not take away any of the important detail you’ve done such a good job on, because it’s a separate piece it can be taken off and the mini can be painted as normal without any risk of damage. A game called “UnMatched Battle of Legends” does something similar to this and they have some of the best minis in the business. Love your Art BTW. 👍

I feel the Sniper as a real glass cannon - deadly at a distance but always in real danger once enemies come close - is something I would love to play. Maybe make her a LITERAL class cannon! An almost invisible assassin made of glass or crystal...

The goldfish and/or octopus (?) driving the tank is by far my favorite of the characters from this whole project I've seen so far.

[zackpeters]

The plague doctor and the old guard were the standouts for me. Hope to see them more fleshed out!

[iamironmansnap]

hell yes that's fire
and a rock guitarist who controls sound would be cool

[Vickie-Bligh]

I loved that character. What's cool about her is the way you drew her, I can see her in a number of games, not just Gate Crash. Well done, and I love watching you draw. You are so talented and it's a joy to see your creations come to life.

The Ascendant is such a nicely designed mini. The cape design is truly genius. Props!

[iamsherlocked]

She is adorable! I’m so sad that the proper character development videos don’t perform better. I don’t understand WHY! They are the BEST and most creative things to watch. ❤

[MaikNL]

I like that you went with the more human looking concept. I think Groot stole the tree people spotlight and that is the first thing your mind goes to when you see a character like that.

And I like that the Alpha faction looks like beings that could live on Mt. Olympus.

[sonicfreak]

I love the elf gardener! I want to spend an afternoon with her helping tend to her garden

[tomasaguiar]

This will forever be my favorite type of video. This is true skill and creativity from a man I’ve been watching for more then 10 years. I’ve always loved to draw and I grew up and learned so much with him, not only about art…

[jakekunz]

the heroes in this are really cool. they kinda remind me of operators like from various games. like they are completely random but each serves a purpose.

[nicolasb]

It is clear the team is genuinely excited to work on this, please keep making videos about the process of making the game :)

[kennyclaing]

I find it really funny how this character started from an old gardener lady and ended up as this super joyful dancing elf with a flower on it’s head 😂 I liked the idea of this eternal gardener lady, but for some reason it was immediately ditched and instead went to an ent or a dancing elf ! It’s fun and I’m sure the miniature is going to look good too, but I’m sad this initial version of this woman didn’t get any further.

[ItsEon]

Thunder Dragon, Plague Doctor, Judge, Witch, and Dino Hulk are my picks!
