Invalid Account Video Feedback

This is my first time making a video like this, so there's definitely some room for improvement, I'm just not entirely sure what I should focus on.

The research shouldn't be too bad, I took about a month for the research alone (not counting knowledge I already had from being in this community), but there is some info that was missing nonetheless (particularly regarding user-unknown, Kasoni.W, and some of the accounts from the February '15 purge).

The renders are brand new, and I'll be using a similar render setting once I set up my new PC (essentially just higher recording FPS + NVENC codec instead of x264 ultrafast codec, but the render/recording resolution, render/recording bitrate, and render FPS will be the same). There's a few lag spikes throughout the video, mainly due to me not having a very good computer at the moment. Shouldn't be an issue in the future, I don't think.

The edits/overlays are fairly simple, but I think I might want to add some more movement in the future? The fades and cut-ins are fine, but I think adding in more zooms or shaking might be nice for some of them. I also used a ton of NameMC pictures, which can get a bit old, so finding in-game pictures might've been a better idea (although most of these don't have any real in-game pictures, so I'd have to Photoshop them or simulate a screenshot on a different account.)

If you have any suggestions, please let me know! I want to make these videos as best as I can, especially since I expect them to take quite a while. Thank you in advance ​

Background music may be a bit too loud, but i'd recommend some spooky/mystery type music for these types of videos.

I don't know if it was just me who noticed, but this video lacks euphemism and seems very, very scripted. It was a very boring 14 minutes.

I consider myself very well versed & knowledgeable about Minecraft accounts, but this video seemed very hard to follow & understand. I doubt anyone outside of the community will understand half of what you said.

Maybe it was just due to the topic, but I wouldn't watch another video like this, I don't know if that is just me.

I kinda felt that too, I am enthusiastic about it but it would seem weird to fake that in my voice (because I'm not a Fortnite youtuber ). I'll see what I can do about that though, my commentary in general is pretty calm so I should definitely work on that. (And yes, it was entirely scripted, this is the first scripted video I've done so I need to practice)

As for people understanding what I meant, it seems to have gotten through to my current audience, but people finding me through the search might be a bit confused. I think I kinda rushed into it assuming that people would catch on pretty quickly (since a fair amount of people that will/did watch it are from MCM and the account community), so I'd say it might be offputting.

I like the volume levels personally (might just be my/your audio setup, not sure, I'll check on them), but you're probably right about the type of music. I kinda took a bit of inspiration from Summoning Salt's videos (even used the same song as him once, which was RESONANCE [second song in the video]), and I think that song fit well, but otherwise the music does seem a bit out of place, especially in parts where I'm talking about huge Mojang purges or accounts getting locked (downbeat commentary) with upbeat lo-fi playing in the background.
