BUGFRAGGED'S PROFILE

@Liberty: On Steam, the dev took issue with your claim that he did this on multiple sites. I know about his multi-account violations on this site, but what other sites did this happen on?

I believe his claim that he merely copied the review text from legit Steam accounts, but I can't argue with the consequences of using multis in this manner and breaking RMN's trust, especially when he could and should have found more ethical ways to get reviews. Plus, Steam reviews cannot be easily transferred to RMN without the original reviewer's help because of the completely different rating system.

Also, I remember that a game, "Chronicles of a Dark Lord," had the dev use multis to review their own game and even downrate a competitor's game. However, unlike Astoria, the Dark Lord game was removed from the site. Is there a reason why Astoria's page is still up?

I agree with a lot of your points in your review, especially about money drops from enemies. As a personal preference, I'm not as strict when it comes to mapping and RTP use, though this is partially because I've never seen the sample maps before. On the other hand, I'm surprised that you consider the story the strong point, since I found the villains generically evil in personality and goals.

@Euphoniac: Your arguments seem to focus more on accusing the mods of being biased against commercial devs among other vices than making an actual defense for GoldenUnicorn. And no, the game's lack of attention is not a valid defense for transferring reviews in an unethical manner. Plus, when you're this aggressive against people giving low-scoring reviews for games you like, you make it harder for others to give constructive criticism due to potential flame wars from rabid fans.

@Whoever vets these reviews: I'm surprised the transferred reviews weren't immediately detected for IP matches or whatever you use to detect sock puppet accounts.

Sorry about that. I tend to be lazy in recording gameplay in that I stop the recording when traveling on the map or fighting mobs, mainly because I have a horrible sense of direction.

I also posted a comment on Kakigore's deviantart page because I didn't know the best way to contact the developers. Basically, I found a glitch in the desert area where you can control an invisible Lear and talk to an "NPC" Lear to trigger the next cutscene. I also wanted to know if it's alright for me to upload a gameplay video to Youtube.

Those would have been interesting ideas for familiars.

The item descriptions for Skill Ring, Goddess' Tear, and some of the Thunder sorceries claim to reduce MCT. However, Skill Ring's description also claims to reduce skill charge time, which should be SCT. Additionally, Atwiki uses CT for all of these, which seems to refer to SCT reduction if their description of Full Moon Sword is anything to go by.
