The Lost Girls Review

This is still my favorite review ever in my biased opinion It's like an island full of taglines waiting to be discovered by a passing ship :<

Star Stealing Prince Review

author=alterego
I think the "drama" truly stems from this "all reviews are precious snow flakes" mentality we adopt, when that's not true for anything.

Edit: "Like idk, do people ever have a problem with positive reviews focusing way too much on one aspect?" - Sometimes. =B

I think we're onto something here haha. I've never seen anyone blowing a gasket over a vague positive review before. It does bring in the question if there's a double standard going on. :(

Not every reviewer has to adopt the story, graphics, music, gameplay template to express their opinion to the player. Now if the whole review was focused around the music direction alone, then I can understand the uproar (In a bizarre way I would love to see that). But as he's talking about the gameplay here that makes or breaks a game, then I can't really see how this review is automatically void. =o=
Err???
Which category of a game is most important is a personal opinion as well. You can't say that gameplay is more important than music.
If I only play RPGs because I like RPG-ish music, then I might as well rate a game on the music alone. Comes down to the same thing.

True, it would also factor into the gerne as well. I can see how a music review might be suitable for an rpg game inspired by Dance central. But at the end of the day, what distinguishes games from any other medium? :>

Off semi topic of reviews of reviews and not that I suspect it applies here at all. (or maybe it does?) But I always found that most review drama boils down to our primal urge to discredit people who "dislikes what we like" and find any justification in why they're subjectively wrong. If one person doesn't share the vast consensus then it doesn't mean his opinion is invalid.

I'm going to be a hyprocrite here, but my only gripe with Ayanins piece is that you can mostly copy and paste this in any review and you wouldn't know that it was tailored specifically for SSP. Other than the lack of identity, I personally don't have a problem with it.

Cavern of Doom Review

author=Tabris_Macbeth
Oh, grow up. You want some xenophobic dumbass site where no one has to learn anything about the world around them, then make it yourself.

When I saw the site's new look and read about the new "standards", I thought this place had gotten all stuck-up. Clearly, though, that isn't the case. I applaud the staff for allowing non-English reviews; it both broadenings the site's potential audience and pisses off simpletons who can't be bothered to learn a language that's not all that hard to learn.

I totally agree! No offense alterego but you're not making yourself look good with the "Speak english or GTFO!" attitude.

Edit:Oops! just caught your comment, but I still think you're being a tad aggressive to poor little Yunkel :(

Lost Legacy: An Animania Story Review

Buen comentario! :D

AFTERMATH VX - Version 0.4 Review

author=amerkevicius
But I have to ask. Aside from trolling other people's reviews and bitching about people and their ideas, have you yet written one good review for this site, or even posted anything worthwhile? Have you done anything good for this site at all, or has the garbage between your head managed to spill into the internet so that it consumes unwanted space wherever you go?


I always found Tabris_Macbeths posts entertaining, you can actually find some well constructed points hidden away in his well disguised troll comments :P

Content of this review was better than most I have read so far on the site. It was a fun read.


Yeah truthfully I enjoyed reading it as well, my ego was destroyed in the progess.

Good luck with the battle system especially, it really seemed kind of a mess. : )


I've changed the battle system so that when a enemy attacks it no longer cancels your move. It wasn't actually a bug but a badly chosen design choice, I wanted the player to be able to re-adjust to the battle on the fly e.g if you were to line up a normal attack and the enemy inflicts slow upon you, you could choose a different skill to debuff it in one turn rather than spend two sloooow turns just to react. But I threw it out in the end because it was frustrating from the players perspective.

The Lost Girls Review

Errrrrghhh, I guess I'll have to spend another month on rewrites -o-
Thanks for the review Max!

Edit: As for the poorly implemented ideas, you have to keep in mind I spent a year constructing custom graphics (it reached 2000 pngs the other day :o) and not once did I dive in the editor during that time. Hence bad everything else. I really have to settle on a tone as it wasn't my intention to make it anime like, oh and yes it is set in alternative history. Don't know what else to say.
