Why it's my favorite: It looks so amazing, almost real. It shows a part of the story line and it really encourages me more to play this game.
I don't feel very original by putting this up after 40 pages of video suggestions, but Part 3 of the Siege of Neverwinter has to stand as my favorite.
Not that undead hordes sieging a castle with a dracolich overhead is anything I've faced before tabletop, but the movie struck me as not only flattering to the game itself, but also very representative of what Dungeons & Dragons is. Of course, it has its few creative quirks (the rogue teleports, the tiefling is obviously a warlock /w pact blade rather than a control wizard) but there's still so much that's recognizable in it for it to feel D&D and to show that whomever was behind the making of the video cared a great deal about getting this right.
Another point in the video's favor is the building up. Part 1 was ordinary foreshadowing. But Part 2 went a great way in helping the viewers give a damn about the half-elf rogue's plight and happy - with the rest of her party coming through to her - to see her prevail.
I haven't seen any piece of media as faithful to D&D as that since the Scourge of Worlds semi-interactive DVD story. I'm really looking forward to my next tabletop game with my buddies so I can show them the trailer and see them nerdgasm over it.
Which brings me to note that I also noticed the video had a stylistic style different from part 2. I'm not sure if anyone else saw this... but in part 2, the half-elf rogue's face is far more angular than in part 3. I thought she looked sufficiently elfin in part 2, but I figure that part 3's changes were likely done to appeal more to western players. I was fine with the semi-anime/semi-Frazetti influences, but it was a nice thought on your part to make those choices.
Congratulations. It really was a great 3-parts series.

Why it's my favourite: I chose the most recent video because we finally get to see the true nature of the enemy that Neverwinter is facing, and the heroes of Neverwinter coming together, showing their skills and their spirit to stand against unbeatable odds in the face of what must be certain defeat. However the cavalry is coming in the form of our characters and they just need to hold that line long enough for us to get there. It makes it both exciting but gives the imagination something to play on and get carried away with.

The Siege of Neverwinter - Part 3 ist mein Favorit, da man dort bereits Einblicke in die Geschichte, Burgbelagerungen und Verteidigungsschlachten bekommt. Zudem zeigt es den Zusammenhalt unter den Helden der "hellen Seite" und das Zusammenspiel der einzelnen Klassen, in diesem Fall dem Magier, dem Schurken, dem Kleriker und dem Krieger!
I have really enjoyed these cinematic trailers. They breathe (new?) life into Neverwinter. They do a good job of conveying just how wounded some of the heroes of Neverwinter are. This animation is amazing. I want a feature-length movie now please. Yeah...the game looks pretty good too. Haha!
Wizard is the class I am most looking forward to; slinging flashy spells is my favourite way to play, and the Control Wizard looks pretty cool and confident doing that job
Why it's my favorite: It's great to see all of the core classes in action in one single video. Additionally, nice storytelling demonstrating the weakness of the vengeful Rogue fighting solo. However, with her friends at her back the immediate battle is won and they stand ready to face the next!
In my opinion the first line of attack of a new mmo is the lore.. before entering the world of the game one must first know a few lines on lore in order to allow his experience to be more immersive.. it is not a fps, but a rpg, and if you do not pay a little attention to lore you might find yourself in a foreign and exclusivist world..
it is easy to lose yourself in the gameplay, storyline etc, but with a tinge of background all your actions gain something more.. the forgotten realms is one the most lore proliffic backgrounds, and it would be a shame for a passionate player not to know some of its storyes..
Was upset there was no dwarf, but quickly got over it. I loved the Cleric! Everything about her she was plain looking yet attractive. The battle/healing scene was wonderful!
She looks for help from the Great Weapon Fighter, but whats this he is dancing around with some petty undead. She tries to stop the big beast but he is just to powerful. Thats when she knows whats going to happen. The end is near and she puts her head down continuing with her heals, then BOOOOOOOOM nice save by the rogue. Cleric says, "Tea at my house later??"..... But whats this its not over... Ekkkkkk THE LICH!!!!!!
So thats why its my favorite. The wizzy wasn't to shabby either.... I liked em all!!!!
After watching the live stream last night I'm all in, games looking very nice guys keep up the good work.

This video is my favorite for the following the combat in this game looks very fluid and polished while the thief/rogue in DND being my favorite class is looking so much fun from this video and the others i have seen it would be a great honor to play the beta before this excitement kills me if given the chance good luck to all who comment and to PWE for the upcoming beta weekends

I like this for three reasons:
1) It gives us that are not that deep into the history of this time information about an important event, the erupion of Mount Hotenow.
2) It gives us some short info on one of the classes (control wizard).
And 3), We got much information about a zone, boss, organisation (the Harpers) and story. Well, maybe not much, but it gave the viewer a general "feel" for the game.

Why it's my favorite: Because it shows us how a rogue can be squishy and very powerful if you know how to use your abilities well. The only problem I see with it is that the backstab wasn't supposed to be that powerful against an undead but who am I to judge ;P

The Siege of Neverwinter - Part 3 such an epic conclusion to a small band of adventurers what I am sure we will see again in the Jewel of the North!
Its my favorite because it brings to life the memories that I have hearing my husband and kids play the table game and hearing them verbally bring their characters to life in each scene. It makes those memories all the more now in the present and I cant wait to be ingame experiencing it first hand

Pirates coming back from the dead! Need I say more?
is:
In its content both as argument and fury of battle
I personally enjoyed all three siege movies, but I like part 3 best because we got to see a d&d party work together.
Why it's my favorite: Trickster Rogue looks like an absolute blast to play and I can't wait!

you can see a fiery struggle which we participate as future warriors of NEVERWINTER
It is my favorite because I like big swords

I loved seeing them work together to bring the Undead Tiefling down. Party up!

I love all of the videos for their own reasons but this one gets me anxious to get my hands on this class. I'm definitely looking forward to bending baddies to my will and then magic-ing their face off!
