"This game, unlike FC 1 and 2, has many flaws."

It is too hard. Even with the guide, I have no idea how to defeat the royal guard. You haven't explained sword fighting that well in the guide, and the music is too loud for me to hear the grunts. I have no doubt it is possible, but i have already tried several times. At one point I managed to damage him, but I'm not sure how.
To modify this, make it so that you can 'block' all the time if you want (i.e. put in a pause button so you can think), and so that you have more health. As it is, I have no idea how to make the character counter attack. Have more practise stuff at the start, and some weak foes. It is very hard beating enemies that can only die one way, and it doesn't improve your sword skill. If you could practise making openings, that would be easier.
Make the checkpoints work for every battle. I can kill the guard quickly, but it is boring to do so.
Give an option to turn down the sound.
Make the storyline more interesting. It would be better if he was rescuing a princess, and if he talked with someone (if you can't write dialoue, just get someone to help you). As it is, I don't care in the slightest whether anyone lives of dies.
