"Keeps deleting my saves......"
date: September 15, 2009
It keeps deleting my saves, so there is no way to play the entire game unless I just sit there for how ever many hours it lasts. The design is pretty good and I would have probably voted it a 9 if the save files would not keep deleting themselves. For me, that is a big factor. If you have a game that is too big to play in one sitting it needs to have a save feature. In your case it does, but it is not functioning right. I know it is not my computer and it seems others have had the same problem as well. When I played the first game of the series it did not delete my save at all. Also, the menus and selection is a bit messed up. Your only able to use your mouse to click a few of the buttons. Most of the time you just have to cycle through the menus with your keys which causes a minor delay and annoyance when I could just click it with the mouse and be done with it. Also you removed the back buttons so it forces you to use the 'z' key to exit a menu. With all of the bugs they build up to a broken feeling during gameplay. It breaks the flow of the game and most times just leaves you slightly annoyed at the outcome. Overall it seems like it could very well be a nice rpg, but its got some bugs that need fixing and the especially big bug of the save file problem. You would also need to incorporate more of a mouse friendly environment to make the flow easier. Keep up the good work and I hope to see another in the series with all the kinks worked out.
