I prefer rounds to be themed. If all the video is is just a selection of clips then the round concept is sort of meaningless
I prefer scenes of things that are a bit fantasy. Normal 1 on 1 stuff is often a bit dull
I prefer variety in a round so multiple clips knitted together as opposed to just one clip with music
I prefer the beats to line up with the music
I prefer when the scene is hot and the beats are faster as opposed to ridiculous fats beats just for difficulties sake

Some of my thoughts will probably echo other thoughts. I like the focus to be on the women, not the dick. I don't care much for watching endless blow videos or clips. I love strip teases, twerking, solo and lesbian, FFM threesomes. I don't mind having some hardcore, even DP and gangbangs, but those are sparing for me. I also really like beautiful, beautiful women, more of the Euro porn variety than the typical American porn star. I also really enjoy a CH video more when there's a story around it, and I'm far more motivated to finish it when there is. Inferno, World Championships, CH Fantasy all jump out for me as my all time favorites because of their stories.

Good luck!

The 'Pinnacle!' I would love to hear in general; or particular, what you consider the 'best parts' of a great Cock Hero! Is there anything that immediately comes to mind? Anything you think is really great!? A favorite scene? The perfect buildup in a particular round perhaps?
I like it when the CH builds up, but not too slow. Personally I like Cock Heroes that have mostly sex scenes within them with maybe 1 teasing/stripping round, one blowjob round then sex rounds which can also build up in itself and that's what I like.
'BEAT' that Beat!
Now for the BEATBAR, do you prefer an actual beatbar along the bottom of the screen, or just a sound to indicate the beat? For the actual beats, is variation or consistency better? Complicated beats or a steady rythm?
Which Cock Hero did it the best in your opinion? Eleborate as much as you'd like.
Any music recommendation are also welcome! Whatever music you find sexy I'd love to hear ;-)
Definitely with beatmeter. I like it with additional indicators showing when the beat changes. I want to spend minimum time staring at the beatmeter while still having it available (to me that's the quickest way to "get it right"). Because I want to look at the actual content, I hate it when the beat becomes complex or even worse - when it literally says "Complex!". To me the beats should be simple enough to get in about 1 second and they shouldn't change too often (one or two exceptions are ok, but changing beats like this every song gets annoying).
Different Strokes! What sort of pacing do you prefer in a Cock Hero? Do you prefer that the first round has a slower beat than the last round? Would you like a slow and teasing Cock Hero? How LONG is your ideal Cock Hero? 20 minutes? 45 minutes?
I have also heard alot of people are tired of the 'stupid fast' beats some videos have. Whats your opinion?
Personally I like it when the beats intensity increases, together with the "intensity" of the content. That's also how I approach it myself when making my own CHs and people seem to like it and really remember it when you make it so that they finish right at the end. This is what I aim for - force the release at the end (extended Double Time usually does it). I really try to avoid making "unbeatable" sections in the middle of the video that some CHs do. As for "stupid fast" beats - to me CH should be doable with full up-down each stroke relatively comfortably, while also giving an option to the user to do half-strokes if one finds it too fast. If a given section is too fast to do with full up-down (or your hand starts to fall off), then that's too fast and I just don't do it. To me each creator should play through his/her own CH honestly without cheating on full up-down and adjust the beats accordingly.
Tease 'n' Talk!? I could either do a Angel vs Devil sort of thing with text; where for example: the Purple text tries to make you cum by talking dirty etc, and the Blue text encourages you to hold out! OR would you like a VOICEOVER by a member from /r/GoneWildAudio. Is there any Cock Hero that did either text or voice particularly well in your opinion?
Let me know!
Personally I don't really like it (somehow I can't forget that after all it's a dude that's written this text). As for voiceover - I prefer the rounds without it. To me the only acceptable place for that is between rounds - CH World Championship (both parts) did it well IMO.
Cum Round? (Obviously, YES)
Do you have a favorite 'final scene? is there any specific one that you really like? A countdown? A round where you are allowed to release anytime? I know there are some really unique ones out there! Whats your favorite?
As you've said it - obviously yes. I hate it when CHs end without it with some kind of "congratulations you've made it" (...and didn't come?). Personally I like any reward round that makes me come towards the end (see the point above about the beats). I prefer it with some sort of countdown. As for favorite videos with this part - well, I like it the way I've made it obviously :). My latest videos: CH Madness2, CH Satisfaction.
Can you hold out!? An endurance round with maybe a steady beat? Or a slow start which continuously gets harder?
What do you prefer? Have you any other 'endurance' ideas that could be fun?
A mix of all :) No preferences here, other than I'm not really indo edging.
THAT Thing!
Is there anything else? Maybe a 'special round' in a particular Cock Hero that you REALLY liked?
If so, please let me know!
Personally I prefer CHs that's just a set of rounds with increasing difficulty. Story based CHs are kind of.. meh to me, as they introduce too much downtime usually. Maybe a story CH with strokes in the middle would be ok..?

For the creators!
Editing Software
What editing sofware do you use to edit? Adobe? Sony? etc. And which software do you use for what? Beatbar, music, video etc.
After Effects for editing, Ableton Live Suite to create the beats, BPMTool script for AE that I've made to create the beatmeter (viewtopic.php?t=19984).
Beatbar/sound
If you've made a beatbar or just a 'beat' how did you go about making it? And of course, what software?
As said above, I use Ableton as I find it easiest to guarantee consistent output, especially when it comes to guaranteeding that the beats will line up with the music (which is something you MUST get right). It also makes adding/changing beats trivial - no stupid copy-pasting.
The 'video' part of the video
How do you personally go about downloading all the videos? And do you sort them in any specific way which would make it more efficient in the creating process? Any tips/info is very helpful!
That's a broad question. Personally I go in this order (for each round):
- find a song that fits current part of the video (how fast / intense I plan it to be)
- create beats
- meanwhile search for video material (if you have no idea where to start, I'd recommend betterfap.com - it's good for finding interesting clips quickly, then look for full videos)
- import music+beats into AE. Create beatmeter and add text cues.
- import the videos to AE, find interesting moments. According to the music and beats I've made I know how many fragments of each intensity I'll need e.g. 16 fragments with teasing, 8 fragments with blowjobs, 32 fragments with regular sex, 16 fragments that are more intense. Find those fragments and put them in the right places in the round according to the music/beats.
- final touch: add fade-ins, fade-outs, maybe some additional editing/transitions
- round done
There's much more that could be said here, but I'm trying to keep it short.
