I don't know that much of casting but I can tell you that you should try to get your setup right because the game sounds so much louder than your voice and it cannot be heard properly

I liked it, but you definitely have to turn done the game volume. Also, i don't like music on, but thats personal preference.

Didn't watch the whole thing. Looks nice for sure, but a couple of pointers:

1) The screen movement! This isn't a rollercoaster. Move less, lower the scroll speed, preferably only move slowly with the middle mouse button.
2) Music should be off and game sounds should be lower than your voice
3) The cast sounds monotone at first glance, try to sprinkle in some more variation in your voice depending on the situation to liven up the cast

Other than that, nice job!

Good start. It's a good idea to guide the camera like a movie director and to comment like a sportscaster.
