Restless is the first machinima effort by a new author named Neoz. It’s a story-based music video, featuring a few of Wrath of the Lich King ‘s general themes. An undead scourge kills some innocent bystanders in Dalaran, motivating a human warrior to give chase on a quest for vengeance. While the pair of fighters battle it out in Northrend’s rocky terrain, the human realizes that the undead was actually once a friend. While the story itself may be standard fare, I think Neoz gave the visual effects of Restless a lot of energy and power. For a new machinima author, especially, Restless is a fast-paced treat. I think Neoz did a great job keeping the action moving. The music selection for Restless is obviously a remixed version of a Linkin Park song. I usually reserve Linkin Park lyrics for Livejournal and angsty blog posts, but I actually really liked what Neoz did with it in Restless . The music matches the action perfectly, and Neoz didn’t drown his story in gothic tropes. Overall, I really liked the video, and I can’t wait to see what Neoz does next.
