Theia - The Crimson Eclipse
author=LolloRocketDiverauthor=This is a really great game! It's the best RM2k3 game I know at the moment. I'm not good at writing reviews, I guess, but usually I don't comment about games at all so it means something that I wrote about this being great^^Well, this means A LOT to me. I mean... A LOT. XD
Thanks Cherry!
I'm downloading the plugin and I'll make an updated version of the game.
(what he really means is “senpai Cherry noticed me”)

The story is slow to start, that’s true. That said, I think you’re expressing your opinion on 10% of the overall story, if you stopped playing there, so there’s that. It does get a lot more engaging as you progress (and I mean *a lot*)

For the english version, it will be fixed soon, but there shouldn't be very big errors. Enjoy! :)
Unrelated, but that was the most entertaining review I've read in a while. Good job!

From what's been written here, I can either assume this issue is due to some type of hardware acceleration being enabled, or maybe this depends on the monitor's refresh rate. It is true that the game has been tested, in the course of four years, on many different setups and this hasn't been a common issue. Technology changes, that much is true too.
Now, please do understand that we have very little control over the hardware side, since this is not our own executable: Theia uses a patched RPG Maker 2003 engine, after all. There is only so much we can do, on our end, to address these issues (also because they seem to affect a minority of the players).
Given our limited resources, the fact that this is not a paid effort, and the fact that we have very little information on your setups ("my PC is very fast" is not much to work with), it should come naturally that support is not something we can snap our fingers at. I wouldn't write Sierra an angry email because my PC doesn't run MSDos point&click adventure games natively. :) If you're finding an issue with your own setup, but you still want to play the game, you can probably look into the cause and correct the issue on your end way faster than we would. And you said it yourself: another RPG Maker 2003 caused the same issue.
There's many options available to keep playing the game: you could just copy your game files to a different machine, play through that part, and then resume your game on your PC when that's done. It's not ideal, but it's something easily done. Better than wait for us to patch something we have no control over.
Of course, no one's asking you to do anything. Theia is provided for free, and you can keep playing for as long as you enjoy it. If the troubleshooting to play RPG Maker 2003 games on your machine is too much for you to bother, then don't bother. It's a bummer, because we want people to enjoy the game, but we won't be throwing Exceeds at anyone if they stop playing because their setup doesn't work.
