SBESTER'S PROFILE
I've been an active member for quite a few years now. I started my RMN career by releasing the Eden Legacy Trilogy of games (each entry took 4 months of nonstop work) within one year, and I've gradually shifted to creating other games as well. I now have 3 flagship series: Eden Legacy, Fragile Hearts, and Mafiosi (being remade for commercial release as Crime Opera). I'm pretty much solely focused on the Crime Opera series of visual novels right now, as my band and job currently take up most of my free time.
Currently working on
-Crime Opera Trilogy (Mafiosi 1, 2, & 3 edited, with all original resources)

Feeling nostalgic. Maybe I'll do something.

I'm bac... oh, nothing's changed. Nevermind.
Haha I took a browse through the forums yesterday and happened upon a thread bashing some kid for an overreaction he had (everyone agreed he had to be a kid, based on his behavior). They piled it on, nonetheless. Mods included. I'd hoped the cyberbullying would have stopped by now, but it seems it may even be worse than ever. Shame :(

Thanks! And good tip, I haven't posted one of these in a while and totally forgot about that. My bad.

Yep, I should have probably made my user name s.bester because everyone seems to read sbester as a really awkward sounding word lol.
That would be Nequita, Happy. Fun fact, there's a third girl in the background, Amanda, who was unfortunately held up at the time of the video shooting. Hopefully she will be there for the next video, filming soon.

Suikoden III is so bad it makes me rethink ever touching a PS2 RPG ever again. And I have like 12 I still need to beat lol
To each their own, but I personally can't find one thing I like about it. The things that stick out in my head the most are:
-The slow walk speed
-The big, empty areas, coupled by the fact that it doesn't let you explore big dungeons, but instead opts for the long linear paths found in FFX.
-The world map. Again, there's really nothing to explore on your own anymore, it's just go here, here, or here.
-Stats. I leveled up my characters 15 levels from the beginning, trying to save some money by rarely upgrading equipment. Their stat increases did absolutely nothing. I still died a few times in the first dungeon at levels 25, 24, and 25.
-The graphics. I'm not a graphics whore by any means, but compare it to the previous entry, and it looks like a downgrade. The big empty areas do nothing to help.
-The dialogue is really badly done. It's probably the translation (one can hope), but wow.
-No real direction is ever given (granted, this is a staple of the series).
I probably haven't played enough to judge the story fairly, and music is entirely subjective, so I won't go into that. However, the whole game just feels completely unfinished to the point I've reached, like maybe half finished at most.
