Yeah, I know "Oh its just a screencap with crappy text."
But I freaking love that pose that MC does in that trailer, and it happens that I like the text
Btw, the image above is a bigger size than my sig I have currented.
EDIT: Heres the newest version
EDIT2: Third version

Fuck yes Metallica.
Anywho I suggest you try make the background/everything but the MC faded out a bit.
Try blurring it and blending modes.

Just not the colour of the text

Rework the text, add a border, and make MC the focal point.
I liked that shield grenade though.

Boarders, I don't like them and never have, they put an un-nesisary limit to the picture.
Pro photographers say that un-centered objectives on an image is the true art.
And I like the text

I do continuously ask for fonts that would work anyways but no one posts any, so I just don't care about font anyways.
I am going to to more on it during the weekend when I have more time, I just kind of wanted to preserve the idea before I lost it.

But this is not photography, this is sig-making.

I'm sure you're smart enough to figure out mine. That sig is not true art. If you want it to have un-centered objects then un-center the chief and make it the focal point.
If you want no focal point ditch the ugly text and blur it to hell.
Borders aren't necessary, but you might want to try it and see what it looks like first. If you don't like it, don't use it.

I get your point, but I like uneven things when it comes to art, digital or whatever. And once again, I realize that the font is ugly, and I do request that someone posts a font that works well with it, because my judgement is always off when it nails down to it.

I think if you have doubts about text its best to just leave it out.
However, if you must have it and arent sure what to use, I suggest Arial or a pixel font.

Alright I took some advice and added a few personal touches and vualah!
I think it looks way better

BTW I did try adding a boarder and I didn't like it.
