SKYLIDE'S PROFILE

1.5 is bogus.

I think you're on a low review score trip

I rate games based on enjoyment and gameplay. I didn't enjoy the cheap encounters and bosses that would show up and not being able to save in the middle of dungeons (or right before a boss). Also, there wasn't enough given to me in the beginning that really made the combat fun.

I bought 6 phoenix downs and went through one of the dungeons, but then realized I didn't have enough due to the cheap encounters. I don't think there was a way to warp out of the dungeon, and I already used a save point. At times like these, tedium happens where I have to waste time backtracking to an item shop just to have to meander through the dungeon again. I think 6 was enough, since at that point I had a healer so I thought I would be fine (since I had potions and status curers).

If the review were based on dedication from the creator and apparent size of game, it would be 5 stars. However, I thought the instakills were a bit much and made the early game too unbearable with the sole reason to play being that the late game may have promise.

If the game used a version of DynRPG compatible with the ATB Overhaul Utility and used it, then it would be tolerable. The game's story is easily ignorable, so the experience would be much better if the combat could just be sped up. Although I would never touch a class with skill names that don't give away the effect of the skill ever again.

I'm disappointed that I can't have a scenario like Ragnarok still being somewhat powerful during his 200 year rest after feasting on the remains of Jeremy and giving Pandora like all of her skills at lv 1.... (although that wouldn't make sense at all storywise, so I get why that's not in the game). Other than that though... I really enjoy this game and all the effort put into it. I like it when a game has a world that actually fills its world with interesting stuff and takes care not to make backtracking a huge pain (letting me go to the part of "dungeon" areas the story wants me to go to instead of having to walk all the way to the furthest room is very considerate of you). The skills of the characters also make me happy (Damien's "buff" along with the offensive buffs and skills of the other characters makes for a good show). The story is engaging through all the stuff about the characters that I can constantly find without having to go through long amounts of grind and walking around. I still have to explore to find everything, but when I do explore, it's not a chore and I find the extra bits in a short amount of time. I've liked the characters so far and I think they're believable (although I don't know how to cohesively support my reasons for that). The only problem I have is the level caps on the summons and how I have to level each one individually, because I don't want to level the ones with a low lv cap, don't want to grind to keep more than one summon at a decent level, and cannot take a lower level summon into combat and reasonably expect it to survive (a certain someone can't have too much armor on due to their "job", so that means I can't have that certain someone underleveled or else they will get cut to shreds before they can use their "charming" skillset). Overall though, the rate at which I get new skills/characters has satisfied me enough to overlook the fact the issues with summons and just(You had something that helped with this in the game all along... ♥♥♥) I enjoy the game for the engaging and entertaining experience it gives me. Thank you so much for creating this game and offering it for free.
Also, how did Ran teleport out of Elrios and get an identity change in the Abyss?
