EPLIPSWICH'S PROFILE

Just one of those who enjoys playing indie RPGs and looks out for really good-quality ones.

I'm also an unofficial game translator and have finished English translations of two top-quality Japanese RPG Maker RPGs: Seraphic Blue and Nocturne: Rebirth. Both games and their game pages can be accessed on the right of this profile.

Finally, I'm currently working on translating a visual novel called Aiyoku no Eustia :) I'm also eyeing on three future Japanese RPG Maker RPGs that I may plan to translate in order of priority once they're out and I've played them. The official and blog sites are as follows:

- Hatalonia: A New Little World (literally Hat World) (v210) (Now available in Japanese!)

Legendary Legend Review

author=newdisciples

But ya know, that doesn't give you the right to dump on a featured game because you didn't like it.
actually everyone has this right and if they did not this site would be awful
That should have read "dump on this game so nastily". It's 3:30am here, I'm tired and I'm giving up on defending this game. I just think people are being spiteful about it. It's easy to take shots at a noob like me, but we'll see how you detractors feel when it's YOUR game getting mercilessly ripped on.

Shooting is pretty much what criticism is all about. People wouldn't even care if it isn't featured. If my own game is criticised to this point, i would improve at it rather than shoot back. While i know you are pissed that there are people who are shooting this game, this is what criticism is all about. It's a harsh world out there. What would the world be without harsh criticism?

I think you have yet to seriously see the outside world. And I also think you're overreacting.

Though I must say, this kind of criticism just for this game is really unnecessary, since the author has pretty much moved on to other things and is an old game per say. He won't come back, really. So these people are really shooting at the wall. Doesn't hurt to voice out though, of course.

I'd at least bump her up enough to push her out of OHKO range for most attacks; as it is it takes excessive leveling, GRDBoost, and GRDCrush to survive shit like Gas Cylinder.

Oh, and GRD Boost does nothing, since the GRD stat does nothing either. RM2k3 bug.

This is proven, by the way. Try equipping Demon King Cradle, which reduces GRD stat by 500, and see that it makes no diff at all.

It is awful on people like Indy, who can barely survive a single hit.
Hear, hear. Placing Indy in your formation forces you to revamp your entire strategy from offense to defense. (Which can be fun sometimes, but gets irritating in the tougher fights.)


I agree. Indy's HP may be ultra low, but that's highly expected since she is after all only but a kid who is very frail up front in defense,

even though she's older than Celia, but Celia is a different case since she's the chosen one.


Also, one has to account that Indy starts off at a lower level than other characters, but with enough levels and the right equipments, she does have potential to own. She's even stronger than in the original, so to speak.

Yes, I'm aware...? "Supporting Protagonist" and "Silent Protagonist" are two completely different concepts. Link is a silent protagonist but not a supporting one, Leon is supporting but not silent.

But yeah, I agree with Sun. Having to level up the bonus characters just to make them usable was very annoying. Only having three gimmicky abilities to start with, especially when they can only be obtained after the game is finished, is silly and ensures that they will never be used. I never used them at all, except during the replay I'm doing now because I want to fight the Reverse Mirror bosses. (The only challenge that I have not yet completed) Having all of a character's abilities at once allows you to get used to them and incorporate them into your strategy from the get-go.

Well, what sun is implying is right from the beginning. I definitely do agree that bonus characters should have all abilities unlocked since players have played this far, so the rewards have to be great. But I still stand as to have the main characters start off with less abilities, though, I have to admit, not to the extent of the current bonus characters.

Finally, I probably would have had "Exceed" abilities be unlocked after reaching certain levels (maybe 30?) so that the player has to get along without them at first, preventing them from falling into the pattern of relying on them exclusively for the entire game. It also becomes more of a treat when you finally unlock them and can start using them.


This is exactly one of my issues with the game. I find that their powerful abilities being unlocked from the start just takes the fun out of the battle system.

And I also believe the role should be swapped between the bonus characters and the main characters, ie.the main characters should be the one to start from level 1 with few abilities instead of the bonus characters. Why I say the bonus characters should have almost all abilities unlocked from the start and at decent levels is because the player has already worked their way to the post game, at least make the bonus characters more rewarding. They should instead be made tougher to unlock.

Solitayre's review at its best...I definitely agree with many of the points brought out. 3.5 is definitely a fair score to give for this game, one that is great and with potential, but isn't at the truly legendary level.

A Home Far Away Review

This game isn't too bad, but i definitely agree with solitayre on most of the points in his review, the most prominent being "It does not come together as a whole". I agree strongly to the fact that this game has just way too many inconsistencies, and certain parts of the story being out of place and such. It's still quite an interesting game to play though (mainly due to the mini games), but unfortunately one of my least favourites as a whole. ~ ~
