DEMONLORD5000'S PROFILE

Guys, this is getting out of hand. Sauce has his valid points...this whole mess is just adding fuel to the fire...and de...while I can understand what your trying to do, emmy can handle herself.

Here's my opinion to turns things around (hopefully). While I've been watching the game. I havn't really played it yet since it's not my style of gameplay. I rarely comment before playing...but seeing this whole mess...I'll make the exception.

Emmy wrote a well written review, who max took out of context because it was an outdated demo, but it was probably the only demo up when emmych downloaded the game. Am I on the mark so far? Anyways, emmych did her part and even left it unrated knowing it wasn't the final version of the game, and seeing it looks like any of her reviews, I seriously doubt there was any conspiracy as it was put.

Max wrote a raged induced essay on a whim (I don't know him personally, so I could be wrong about the whim), because either he didn't like the review, he had a bad day, or for some other unknown reason. Now I admit it was uncalled for, I don't think all the negative comments helped toward his response.

In the end, I don't presume to know max's plans (though I would enjoy seeing him do another story based one, but people change, so I won't hold my breath), but he should probably comment on this whole mess when hes more calm. I'd advise letting the flames die down a bit, and hopefully max can respond in a more rational manner. Otherwise, if the fights continue to get out of hand, then a mod would have to get involved.

The comments on the game itself...that will wait till I actually play it (which could be awhile). Max, whatever route you choose to take, I wish you luck with your game. I probably won't be replying..cause that'd ruin the whole point of this post.

Edit: Also on a less serious note...this is coming from a demonlord of all people. What is the world coming too?

Pretty much agree with the whole thing here. I have to say I was astonished by the lack of secret passages. It's been awhile, but I only recall about 3 in the whole game, and they weren't that challenging to find.

The whole grind for ep thing I forgave due to the fact I just recently got the system, but I agree I would of liked a spot besides the world map to gain it. Even an optional area to explore would of helped a huge bit here I think.

Writing and battles were the games weakest points in my opinion, but seeing the game is only 2-3 hours in so far, it's completely salvagable, and it's not too late to go back and change things. I do think the game has lots of potential, but some things were a letdown.

Well, thats really all I can think of to comment on for now. I'll come back and edit if anything else hits me.

All this arguing has forced my hand, I'll put my own opinions into the game, since I bothered to complete it. The fact you want to make a realistic caterpillar system is understandable, but shrugging off peoples opinions of it isn't the way to go about it. Rather than have it where you can get trapped, how bout make it you can talk to your party members, and ask to swap positions with them? Granted it's not the most efficient fix, but it keeps it realistic. There were a few decent jokes in the game, but the rest just didn't do it for me. The walking around in some places is tedious because they are built like a maze. The fights were way too easy. The final boss was disappointing, and I was wondering why I learnt new skills after beating the game. I mean all the fights are predetermined, so what was the point of the level 5 skills in the end? Also, I have no idea what that one item did. It just says it upgrades my 3d powers

All in all, you tried an interest concept and put it into a game, only it didn't have enough effort put into it to pull off what you wanted. Keep trying and improve on the game. It's easy to come up with ways to improve your systems, just think about how they work, and how can they work for your game.

Ps. I cheated your blocking system. Shift to run and ditch your party members anyone?

Edit: Sorry bout double post, they are both the same, don't bother reading second one. I clicked post, and for some reason it went in twice. I'm thinking my computer lagged, sorry bout that.
