"Still excellent RPG!"
date: December 16, 2007
hey, Soullock's here again!
I played your game and I am pretty much impressed just as I was with your first chapter!
though sadly, I found more flaws in this chapters than the first one.
Graphic:
still basic, yet unique. This time, there are lot of styles and colors than the first
chapter and the art direction still feel as fresh as ever! Though I do find heck a lot
of lag, which I am extremely disappointed even with my settings toned down on my
good and powerful computer. You need to do lot of tweaking to slow the lags down!
9.2/10
Sound:
still basic and unique. Nothing new, but I still enjoy the tunes!
9.3/10
Gameplay:
Gameplay are basically the same, good retro RPG battles and explorations! Altought
I really REALLY hate your new hand cursor... it so out of place in this game. You should
have kept the crystal as cursor, not as scrolling highlighter. It make clicking with the
mouse feel awkward. Replace the hand with crystal as in first chapter and just use the
color bar as menu highlighter, it make thing simpler. Also, I hate the fact that I felt forced
to use the keyboard buttons during battle instead of mouse, which made combats feel
fresh and new beside using same old buttons and arrows. Also, I cannot highlight and
read combat, enemies, and items information with mouse anymore, which forced me to
use the arrow keys. Please bring back the full mouse control from Chapter 1, which is the
best menu interaction.
8.9/10
Plot
I am slightly disappointed that you took us right to Mardek's future as adult immediately
after his discovery of the spacecraft in Chapter 1. I want to see more of character
development during their childhood or teenage years. Oh well... beggars can't be
choosers. At least your plot are extremely engrossing and creative, which is slightly much
better than Chapter 1 with so full of twists and heart-wrenching moments. Also, your
villains at the ends are still so full of creativity and humor! I LOVE THAT!!! Keep that up,
your villains are one of most unique in any games!
9.8/10
few words and nothing else:
FREAKING AWESOME GAME!!!
Final Score: 9.4/10 (9/10 newground)
