SILVIERA'S PROFILE

comment=31769
Perhaps a new set of standards should be applied to the Game Gale contestants, there has been quite the slew of negative reviews for many of them which I don't think is fair given the short amount of time they were in production.

Completely disagree here. Game Gale was a contest and nobody is expecting masterpieces, but that doesn't mean they should be elevated above other much more playable games just because they were made for a contest. This site has a much broader user base than the active forum goers who tend to be the ones who participate and follow this kind of thing. It's unfair for the site's average user to have to try and apply some 'contest standards' when they're trying to search for something to play.

I will be checking this out soon. Probably not as quick as Sol since I'm pretty busy lately but I've really been looking forward to this.

Sorry, honest and careless mistake! I have edited my comment above to reflect that. But one thing that you'll probably agree with me is that in the review here they had a completely different gameplay experience than you, DE and me had. Agreed?

No worries about the mistake. My experience was similar to this review (combat had the same flow of attack/heal but instead of having difficulty I breezed through everything), but yes this goes without saying really, people have different standards and tastes. No one is going to experience a game the exact same way which is why it's important for the developer to get feedback from as many people as possible in order to improve their work. This includes positive and negative feedback as long as they are detailed (this applies to both types) and to me both this and FG's review are well thought out and carefully constructed reviews written by people with vastly different tastes and standards.
