SAILERIUS'S PROFILE

post=140293

Sorry if I came across as sounding arrogant. That wasn't my intention. I just don't like reviewing demos because they're a work in progress. I know that personally, whenever I put out a demo, I know that a lot of areas are lacking polish so it's redundant if someone were to review it and tell me that "area B needs to be cleaned up/is buggy/is empty." Generally, with a complete game, the creator has the game polished to his satisfaction, so reviews can make him aware of flaws that he wasn't aware of.

I'm not making a bunch of demands. I thought it would be fun.

Welp, fair enough.

I have three finished games on the site. All of them are fairly dated, but I think that Backstage and Iron Gaia: Virus stand up fairly well over time on the merits of their stories. Not everyone agrees. If you'd like to take a crack at either of those, I'd appreciate it. Both have a play time of ~5-7 hours if I recall correctly. In either case, I am looking for a measured and informed opinion somewhere between the haters and the fans, preferably more on the side of the latter than the former. : P

Be warned that Backstage is a psychological horror adventure game, and IG:V is a very nontraditional jRPG with CRPG elements that is a gaiden to a game that you have never played and a game I might be embarrassed to have you play, if your standards aren't calibrated to the standards of 2004. So you can choose whichever of those two tickles your fancy better.

As for the pitch, I'll leave it to the game pages.

five years old now, and still no review on here.
Mana Conquest is the first game I ever completed, and while it's dated by most standards, I'd appreciate someone saying something about it, even if it's bad.
edit:
I don't think he came off as arrogant. Not all of us have all the time in the world, and he just wants to make sure he's not wasting his time reviewing something that is not in it's final iteration/may have already been fixed/changed/canceled.

I'm playing it now and I'm stuck on the soldier's training. I'm at the question where it asks the name of the town. It is Dera, isn't it? Is there a specific space I need to put at the end? There are quite a few empty space characters. I had no problems getting Eddie.

Also, one of the quiz questions is "What is your last name?" Seriously?

err, all of them are mentioned in the game at some point, it's Raygley, I think that was the spelling. I can check if that's not it... XD
Dera is the right answer, but you don't need a space at the end of a four letter word. I did it that way because the hero naming screen is glitchy and doesn't show the last letter of a word that has an odd number of letters in it.

My first game submitted to this site, its a short puzzle game with an increasing difficulty level.

Ooh, a review thread! Time to fire the PH cannon!

Here's the deal: my first three games are all complete, but they also all suck and are well-reviewed. Feedback on them wouldn't really help me much.

My 4th game, however, is in development and has a fair-length demo on which feedback would DEFINITELY help (because there's still time, oh so much time, to fix and change things).

Finally, all my games are essentially clones of each other, so in that sense, it doesn't matter which you play (they're all the same!). Though I'm trying to fix things with the 4th that were painful and bad with the 1st three.

All that said, here's the pitch!

Would you like to play my game, Pokémon Hunter*? It's a series!

He can indeed review or not review whatever he wants. As can anyone else.

But no one else is posting a topic asking for games to be pitched specifically to them, for them to accept or reject. They're just reviewing the games they feel like reviewing and not reviewing the games they don't feel like reviewing. In fact, aren't we specifically not supposed to be plugging/whoring our games on the forums anymore? Isn't that what gamepages are for?

The other thing that seems strange to me is that with all of these standards and requirements, Sailerius has never reviewed a single game on this site. Fallen-Griever has reviewed 20 grojillion games and has no special requirements to consider your game for review. I'm just saying.

Obviously Sailerius is free to review or not review whatever he wants and people are free to react however they like to his disposition and manner.

Anyway, I am done here. Everyone go about your business.
