Hello,
I have tried GH2 a few times (last time maybe 1/2 year ago) and never really understood what to do. Perhaps there was nothing but running around implemented at that time, but I suspect that I was just doing it wrong.
Would it be possible to make a gameplay video of gh2 some time? One that shows how to get started, maybe roughly shows off all the features in the game?
I recently wrote a guide for recording game videos. Perhaps it can be of use.
Should I ask on the forums?

@gubodup:
The forums would be the place to ask. Most of us in there are nice people, and the community is small enough to be comfortable to talk to.
I’m capable of making this, though I’m not going to commit to it up front. If I have time, maybe. On the forums, a few people may be able to do it.
I do agree though: The very beginning of the game may be confusing to a newer player.

Where could I get an english version of the clip?
Yay new version!
