I would love to see more footage, but I actually agree with one of the people replying. When you see footage of people clicking you get to see some of the descriptions, and see what is going on. I agree that hotkey usage is the way to play but for demos I like to see how people are playing and what abilities they are using, and the only way to demo that is by giving a visual reference with clicking. Maybe just me but that's how I see it.

Being in a feild where you need to guide people to know exactly whats going on, it's always best to show as much visiual as possible. Cursors moving around, buttons being pressed.  Which items are being moved.  The more you can show happening on screen of your actions and less on the keyboard the better for showing things off.

I mean if you puill off an attack that causes 3 hot keys to go on cool down, how does the player know which of those three was actually clicked on.  Naturally you should show some number pushing to show fluidity but most of it should be visual.

Edit: Also if your showing something off, you go slow, that way people can absorb everything,  You walk up to a mob, you use an attack.  then wait a moment, then use another, rinse repeat, walk up to someone, wait a moment, use an emote.

Kinda like when your teaching someone, you don't go fast and assume they know everything, you go nice and slow and point out everything.  Then at the end you go wild and say this is what it looks like when you put it all together and get good at it.
