you mean such a video like you can see for most of the hyped games,

where the DEVs talk about their game, what they did there, and which aspects of their games they think are highlights, making it better then others.

with the DEV talking in a blue-box and pasted infront of ingame footage (that always contains some action, or nerf-gun battles in their office)?

my first three thoughts:
1) Giga TV?
2) overhyped feature vids with DEV comments and loaded with action that invites disappointment once youre in game?
3) Gremrods podcast "Incoming Transmission" with DEVs invited and the 24h DEV/GM ingame coverage

That point was covered in a nice way with the podcast. This and the 24h coverage (I know i know its hard to do so right now) gave a really good feeling to the game and its community and you always knew that there was someone on you could poke with your problems. For the world-of-mouth this was already sufficient, many new players that time came and stayed because of the 24h coverage which is quite rare for any MMO.

Videos are always a double-edged sword. If its about representing the game itself they are good, but the DEV-team will still be felt as from another world. This rift is disincentive to players, so it needs to be bridged somehow (like with meet&greets, podcasts, online presence, daily news,...).

So rather than a video, I'd like to listen to a podcast of the DEVs (like every 2 weeks; doesn't always need to be about the game, can also be about exploding toasters; maybe even with a "mailbox" where a few questions of players are answered ; that can be downloaded from the official website).
Just like you said:

Hey Arjha, I completely understand where you are coming from, and agree. I love Podcasts, and have listened to Incoming Transmision few weeks ago, I do believe those should be continued.

However this Video would be to try and help bring New Members in. This idea is because of the possibility of being advertised on Steam, so it would be good for any people who are browsing through it to be able to see and hear what exactly Perpetuum is about. I know for 1 thing, as much as I love Podcasts, I would never look for, let alone listen to a Podcast of a Game I was just browsing through. This would be a 3 - 4 Minute Introduction Video of them running through the Basics, and what Perpetuum has to offer.

I believe, if they are going to Promote their game, then they [the DEVs] should be the 1s doing it. Even though Perp is all about Player Interaction, for New Members, who know nothing about the game, are not going to either [get it] or [care] let alone know who Gremrod is =P and once again, they won't want to be watching a Podcast for a game they know nothing about, unless it's 3 minutes of Gremrod talking about the Mechanics, which will just be like any other Video you can find on Youtube.

In short: It will just seem like a general Fan Video not a Official Video.

I agree. The DEVs would need to do it.

we're introverted ._.
