Reviews for "FF Oblivion Chapter 2"

An improvement

I couldn't help but lose interest during some moments, however. Squall took far too long to summon Locke, a quick flashy effect that takes a few seconds was all that was required, and there's not anything else going on while we're watching those two blobs float around. Also, the magical effects in general are kind of weak. It's nice that you're making your own, but Blizzaga was nothing more than a light blue blob that made Biggs (or Wedge?) float away. It would've been more exciting had the attack incured damage instead, and seemed more painful to the victim.
It wouldn't hurt to proof read your dialogue, either. During the conversation between Locke and Setzer, Setzer actually tells Locke not to tell him everything if he didn't want to. Seconds later, he's thinking that Locke is holding something back, which conflicts with his earlier statement of understanding.
And I agree that the KH Cloud looked out of place, but it was almost worth it for the battle animations. Which leads me to the meat of this movie, the battle against Shadow. Here is where you seem to really shine, as the battle was intense, filled with sound effects and had some very smooth attacks. Shadow vanishing and materialising elsewhere was quite nice, as was Cyan's defense against his shuriken attacks. If all your battles were that interesting all the time, you'd be getting blue scores, possibly even Pick of the Days. Certainly this one is an improvement on the animation, so I predict you'll have some truly excellent movies later on in the series. Keep it up.

SneakyBrothers responds:

I still haven't figured out why my flashmovies slowdown. It can really be seen in this battle Shadow vs Cloud. While testing, the animation was faster and smoother. If somebody knows how to fix this I'd really appreciate it. It's much better watching this movie when its actually playing 30 fps, instead of this slowdown.

Funny that you mentioned that the shining part was the battle starting from the shuriken attack, because that's where I continued it after reading the part1 reviews. If reviewing has this good influence on me, please review more!! =)

Getting a little bit better

Well I have seen the first part and this was a little bit better surely. The text blocks are still a bit too dark, I thought you were going to make them lightblue, why didn't you do that? I don't say it's completely unreadable, but it is hard to read sometimes. I also think that the Cloud sprite didn't really fitted. Everything is about the same type of sprite except Cloud. I think you need to find one that looks better with all the other sprites and the background. The other new character (Squall) did look good with the rest, I hope he'll play a big role in this series cause he's my favorite FF character =) Anyway, as for the rest of your movie, the backgroundmusic was nice again, but there are still not that much sounds for when they use magic. Not that there were that many fights in this part, but I still didn't hear very much when they used magic attacks. I hope you'll find those sounds pretty soon, maybe you should ask around the BBS where you can find some. Well I'm glad that I finally know a bit about the storyline. Overall I'd say this was a bit better than the first episode, but not that much. I think I'll vote a 3 for this. I'll keep an eye out for the rest of the series. Good luck with creating the next couple of episodes.

PS: Do you already know how many episodes this series will have?

Very good!

The 2nd chapter of the FF side story is just as good as the 1st. Keep up the good work! Hope to see the next chapter soon.

love it

i f**K love it man i saw part 1 that was the best but keep me posted when part 3 comes out

well...

i usually dont like sprite movies that arent jokes, but that was alright. making your own ff story is kinda lame, but i do love ff3, its the only one i like anyway. and besides, you did a pretty good job with it, so i give it a 7/10.
