Hey danes! I watched your game and it was fun. I'd say for the most part, all from the dude who wrote the only comment on your youtube vid sums it up.
If I translate, and add my opinions, I get something like this:

1.Choose your words carefully. All people might not follow the confusing words you use. Choose words for your audience. fagbegraber" as proxy cheese? Kinda hard to get.

2. Don't mix using the danish words ingame things with english ingame names. Stick to one, and that's only english since the game never had any danish version. The danish word for tanks (wagons) and the english loan word, "tanks" are used back and fourth. It's confusing. Especially for me as non-danish.

3. Perhaps most important: change your tone sometimes. The tone of your voice is one of the important ways to communicate your feelings to the audience, that's how you create excitement. Your voice is really monotone and you sound more or less exactly the same no matter what happens in the game.

4. Watch other good casters. No caster invents casting all over again, they steal tricks and style from others and try to do things like they did, too. Then mixing that up with their personality is typically what makes them unique. I wouldn't say I got to see that much personality from you here. Do people love Nukethestars for his awesome analysis? No, they typically love his personality. The analysis is nice ofc, but personality and style is what generally set's the major difference.

5. Awesome to see a Nordic cast. We need more of this. BW could have a strong harbor in the Nordic countries and a first nordic commentator is a huge step towards that. Keep the casting coming and I'll watch it.

6. Now this critique might seem harsh but this is your first cast. You gotta start somewhere, and most casters who are good today weren't perfect in the beginning. I've followed a few so I've seen it.
