All good. I mean the thumbnail feels a bit too much like its turned up to 11 if that makes sense. In theory the concept is there right you have space marines check, enemy check. But the background and the neon green really jumble up together in my opinion it comes across as too busy.
There's way too much going on here, needs to be simplified
Maybe just the characters? Tone down the background, doesn't need the logo I feel. The characters can be bigger
Maybe a white outline around them instead
okay i’m gonna be back
i’m gonna do that and send it to see if it looks more “clickable” (better)
Less is more, I see too much you’re better off using only one character on the right side and the name on the left side with a gradient background that goes from light to dark
Ah... the famous case ofgame titles imn the thumbnail NEVER EVER do that for a letsplay or gameplay video.
The logic is either the viewers:
- are looking for that game anyway, so they're searching via titles in the SE
- are fans of that game and would recongize it without text
OR 3. are new to this game and dont really need to know in the thumbnail the name. Tehy just need to know it looks cool
It IS better! The colors and spacial balance are much better, but the subject is too muddy
