Well Marik did not intend to feel bad, an you shouldn't feel bad about being excited. Though, I wouldn't be talking about replacing Rongi yet, though wanting to is great.
You seem to be as critical of yourself as well, so it does not come off as you think you are better, you just want to motivate people.

One thing is I would not say things about the character's appearance, because that is purely opinion, and all my characters look exactly like I want them to look. I even used a Fantasia for my Roegadyn, because her eyes seemed small, then I decided she was perfect and didn't change her.

Criticism is fine, just not on character appearance, except for the makeover shot.

Anyways, will you be Elezen or Lalafell in the youtube videos this time around, Rongi?
