The Flicks were the reason why I was tempted to buy Wildstar in the first place, and one of the reasons why I became such a big fan of it. Will we see more?
 
The last few adverts for Drops and such were all just so... Boring. It wasn't even humorous and well orchestrated like the Devspeaks. The Protogames trailer in particular was particularly boring and lackluster. It just showed some people running around and some bosses. There was no flair. No humor. No silly emotes and cartoony scenarios, like in the Devspeaks. And it was especially bad compared to the Flicks.
 
Please tell me you at least have a Flick in the works for the third Raid. You can't keep putting out half-assed advertisements or you'll never get your population back. Advertising is half the battle.

Same here. The Flicks were how I got interested in Wildstar in the first place (stumbled upon them while bored on the internet one day).
 
Hopefully, we'll get some more in the future. ^_^

			I don't know if they will get that flavor back after Frost left the building. They should commission him for the vids cause he rocked at doing those. Just don't oversell the hardcore this time around ;)

			I hope they release a version of their machinima tools if they are no longer going to be doing flicks, I would love to get my hands on that stuff.

Well Devspeak's kinda were carried by Frost and goofy writing.
 
Flicks don't need Frost's voice but they do need the kooky characters.
 
Meet the Exiles is my favorite, and the flick with the pirate introducing the classes was hilarious too.

i'd rather they put the money they have in playable content...
 
"flicks" are cool and all, but it isn't the good time for Carbine to spend on fluff (or marketing for that matter).

Agreed but have you seen the Drop 4 trailer?...it just makes it look like Wildstar is limping on its last leg. I hear it from guildies in other mmos...
 
"Have you seen their protostar trailer?" 
"yeah! What happened? Is the game getting ready to shut down or what?"
 
They don't SEE content, they remember June, July and think to themselves...wait a minute, this isn't how it used to be.

we'll... it'll never be how it use to be.
wildstar will always be handicapped....
 
it can still be fun :) even if it is missing a leg.
 
YAaaaR !

Yea i enjoyed the humorous voice acting of the proto-star clones the most.
If a particular somebody that used to be around did those couldn't you find someone with a similar voice talent to take the spot?
Unless there is some clause that states he owns said "voice"?
 
Otherwise yea i expected some proto-star voice overs in the drop that would probably have sold a lot of people, but it was alright but no flair to it like others have said.
 
It is what it is do what you wish i'm already in the game and don't care much but it does help.
 
Also, if you end up doing it, i'd suggest just re-releasing a new one for proto-star deleting the old one and showing that new one off anyway.

I always preferred the Flicks to the Devspeaks...Both were abnormally awesome, as you usually don't promotional videos set up like that.  
 
The Flicks are what sold me, from the launch trailer to the faction reveals, Wildstar had this sense of humor that resonated with me.  The Devspeaks had the same, but were more about diving deep into the gameplay and content.
 
Personally, I would love to see their return. Maybe after Drop 5, we'll see a big marketing push and their triumphant return.
