DEVHYN'S PROFILE

author=CCM
Oh, no, gil is pretty well balanced, especially with all the adventurer guild quests giving plenty of it. I just wanted to see how other people deal with it, whether their solution is "only equip a core party of 4/5/6" or "rotate party members" or whatnot. I didn't think to sell elixirs, though, which should alleviate that. I just got to Aquaria.

I'm pretty bad about sticking to one group and maybe swapping one or two people out on pretty much every rpg I play with big parties. If I want to try other characters, I typically play through a game multiple times rather than spending time grinding to level and gear everyone (not that leveling is an issue here either). That being said, I didn't feel like I had a lot of problems with gil when keeping up with sidequests and stuff. Plus, I fully explored every dungeon to get all of the items available before leaving.

My first play through, I mostly used Karina, Elysia, Aeth (me! such vanity etc.), and Dag or Cass, but I'm trying to swap people around a bit more this time. This time I've been using Level and Miko a lot more.

I played this game a little before you released it on this forum but I didn't like how char development went in this ff fangame. First of all it's full of strange characters with non-matching sprites. They speak things understandable only to people who plays ff online. Well as for me, you should consider changing game heroes to be more "epic" than they are now, because it may scare people who aren't familiar with you.

There are definitely still some inside jokes, and there are a number of references to FFXIV as well. This was intentional, but the the story should stand up well enough on its own now. I'm not sure what version of the game you played, but a lot of back story has been added to explain where all of these seemingly random characters are coming from.

As for sprites/portraits, I think it's pretty commonplace for those not to entirely match. o: All of the recent Final Fantasy remakes come to mind. But in our case, a lot of the sprites were made before portraits were made, and a lot of the people these characters are based on went with different character design and were changed when FFXIV transitioned from 1.0 to 2.0. (For example, my character--Aeth--is a male miqo'te now rather than a hyur.)

even "Aeth" has its charm.

Aww, thanks! The full name is actually Aethaeryn, but Ry said it was too long and too hard to spell. ;_; Plus everyone calls me Aeth anyway.

(Edit: I keep omitting words and writing confusing things somehow.)
