Story of Integra

Hello Tosi-Taku,

I was about to make a review of the game in this post, but then stopped myself. I'll finish your game and then review it. So far though I really love the story, god damn it it's just...

Key plot spoiler below.
I love how she's going through this dark world and realising everything's not sunshine and flowers. I'm "only" at the part where Althoran turned into a Vampire and only need to beat him tbh, damn this part of the story is the toughest I've gone through, so many vampires everywhere, no places to heal (This is where actual RPG skills come in I guess?) Luckily I hoard a lot, so I have lots of pots but esther is the issue which I should've bought more potions against. I'm even trying to use super effective moves (fire moves and smite that deals unholy dmg to dark beings? Seems to deal more dmg against Vampires at least).

A question though (please check if the team is fine as well, I play League, have played WoW and have a general idea of what a team should consist of.
I'm using lvl 16 characters, too early at this point or just fine? My team for this quest is of an assassin (Couldn't change him), bard (necessary healer), dragonborn (fire dmg) and the one that deals smite dmg... forgot her name D: she's worshipping the moon at least. I probably should have taken the Tank since he have a lot of HP, but at this point imo he wasn't needed, the Dragonborn and the Warrior is like a mix of dmg and tanky.


Now please don't spoil anything, I love it, is the sequel the same style btw?
I haven't checked the story yet, but I had hoped it was about Integra as well, but I accidentally read something about Matik... welp.


TL;DR: I love the story and the progression of the main character.

New to RPG. I'm probably at the wrong forum...

I'm thinking, if free rpg's can be this fun, then what about paid ones?
Just as a warning, this is not always a reliable measure.

Yeah I know, but it was mainly because of the positive ratings. The trailer looked nice as well. I will most likely be careful to buy any indie games. I will pick the indie games based on trailers etc.
I found an interesting site made from VGPerson and he translated some neat rpg games too. In fact Ara Fell will probably be the only RPG I bought. At least in a long while.

Also, thanks for the links earlier :)

Ara Fell and Remnants of Isolation are more exceptions than the rule. They're great games, but most paid indie games tend to be as unmemorable as most other indie games. Don't let that entirely put you off of paid games. There are plenty of really good paid indie games out there.

I'll be sure to be on the lookout for that as well.

Now, I'm not the type to play a game several times to get several endings, I play it once then I move on. Especially in this case as there's just so many games out there... Is that a no-no or? I don't expect to become an elitist, but more the casual gamer. I will probably cross some buggy games (already did in fact), same with some bad translations/grammar or whatever's out there. I'll probably think it's funny, but at the same time won't look down on the main thing itself, the game. However that might be difficult on story-heavy games, .

Alright, here I go.

I will say this in advance, but I will check the links LATER, as damn there's a lot and I'm currently just taking it one game at a time. I don't have much time anyway as I work 8hrs a day so... bear with me with this :)

All of the people I've listed have made games that are the exemplar of what a good indie game should be. As for puzzlers, I'm not big on them either, but check out games made by CashmereKat or Jeroen_Sol. They've both got some fantastic puzzlers.


Gee thank you for the long list.

Welcome, Nikechu!
Just a showcase of the trailer for the expanded version of OneShot:




There are also other RPGs that I like, but they probably are not the ones you're looking for since those are pure RPGs that are more into levelling/fighting bosses (pretty much the early Final Fantasy-style games) and are a bit more to the hardcore side.

Thank you for the trailer, that actually really caught my curiosity as it can be difficult without knowing what I am going to play. To start with I may be playing the top rated games first, well because they are good. I did the same with anime tbh, then later got into lesser famous anime and enjoyed them as well.

Edit: Oh, also for the notification system, there is not one in place like this with @sthsth, it is often used to adress people in posts though (as you did).
You automatically get notifications for new posts in threads, statuses, reviews etc. you created by default.
You can also subscribe/unsubscribe to specific threads or gamepages to be kept up to date with notices to anything added to it. It doesn't count edits tho, thank god. That's how this site works.

That kinda seems annoying, but I guess it's how things roll here, I'll get used to it sometime. So far I really like this community and will probably stay here.

author=Kylaila
And as a sidenote, most developers here aren't in it for the profit, either. It is mostly a hobbyist-community. So it's just normal game-loving peeps for the most part.

Yeah, if it was something with full blown ads and every post where like: "Check my game out it's great, only 0.99$" then I'd be thrown off by it, really. But if it's something like @Sooz did then it's fine.

author=Marrend
Fair enough, Sooz. Let's provide a link to The Book of True Will while we're at it!

Will check it later.

This might be in poor taste, but the game I made (Ara Fell) is currently on sale for 4.99 on steam with a 92% positive rating. I don't know if a commercial RPG Maker game is the best place to "start" per se, but I might argue Ara Fell is one the most well-rounded RPG Maker games out there.

There's a free demo, and you can also refund Steam games if you play them less than 2 hours. If you do decide to give it a try, please let me know what you think!

How funny, I just bought it before I read your quote. I'm thinking, if free rpg's can be this fun, then what about paid ones? Definitely going to give this a try. It's not like I'm against turn based RPG's, I remember once playing a turn based game in Playstation and I loved it, I forgot the name though...

Sorry gotta go, I will check up later if I missed some comments!

Holy frikken cow.

Sorry this may be a bit late, but I've been playing The Gray Garden and focused on that, which is why I didn't check in a while.

I'll be taking some time to read the comments, thanks for all the help :)

Wow,

I've only ever used MAL, but man there seems to be cool forums for everything out there, thanks everyone, you too, Marrend. Didn't notice you edited your post untill BlackWolf1992 commented on it.

On a side note, there's no notification system like @?

@NeverSilent & @LockeZ thank you very much.

Both of you suggested the list of featured games, I'll make sure to read through it. Sadly I don't think I will be a developer of games, I'm not looking for profit or anything like that. I do however like people who put a lot of effort into the games, like Fummy. He even made a novellette(?) which I of course have to read at some point xD

Alright so I've noticed this site is mostly about "how to create your game", so I'm probably in the wrong website. If so please re-direct me.

Here's the thing, I just started, literally two days ago, playing RPG Maker games. It started with how Markiplier was about to play the game "The Witch's House", but I wanted to play it myself so I went through the progress of installing RMVX and RMVX Ace, also installed RPG MV, which was probably unnecessary.

Since then my curiosity for RPG games sky-rocked. It's very few, but I've played The Witch's House, Mogeko Castle and currently playing The Gray Garden. Usually I wouldn't play turn based games like The Gray Garden, but the story caught me.

So my question here is, if anyone would bother answering at all, which games should I start with?

Honestly I'm not fond of horrors, I'm easily scared and can be a coward at 3D games, but 2D is creepy too however I can tolerate it, ofc with sound.
I guess I would like to play games with, idk, puzzles like The Witch's House. Some adventure RPG's with a good story (at least decent) like The Gray Garden.

Sorry if it's a bit long, hope I receive at least one useful reply, in advance thanks :)
