Hmm, is it really this bad? Anyway, the reviewer seemed to dwell on the heroine's promiscuity quite a bit, so is it really "safe for all ages"?:P

It sure looks good. It reminds me of Final Fantasy 6.

And the most important question of all:

Why upload/review/spend space & time with it IF it is so bad? Doesn't life offer enough GOOD games? So why bother with the bad ones?

Oh well, it can't be worse than Knights Of Xentar, so what :-)

I've played all three in this series, first because it needed screenshots, but then because I was enjoying playing it too much. I'd've given it a 4.2, and'd put as positive points:
Finally an RPG that doesn't take itself serious
The humour
Fair rate of random battles

Negative points:
Bit lacking on graphics ------> This's actually mocked throughout the game, too
Not many places to explore  -------> Is forgivable, as it's a tiny team (if a team already)

That said, I think Triton didn't give what the game deserves in the review, rating and pros/cons. It's definitely a great game, especially if you want to get a smile on your face (or a grin, more likely)

Edit: For the record, the jokes're not 'bout the heroine's promiscuity. I've only seen a few of those, compared to the others. And there're no scenes like in Knights of Xentar. 't Mainly's just jokes, and even those that're so bad they're awesome (like how many dwarves it takes to screw in a lightbulb :P ) 't Mainly's just a party-animal heroine that doesn't think too much of anything else but that, and that's where the jokes come from. That, or mocking the game maker's disabilities (like lack of graphical talent, although the battle pics're pretty damn great), and mocking the genre. Just check the screenshots. I've put some dialogs in there that show this :P

Wonder what's so wrong with the graphics? Anyhow, I'm surprisingly giving this a chance, though I don't usually like the genre.

Actually, I'm beginning to think that what's wrong with this game is that it was reviewed by somebody who'd rather have been playing something else - like a nice strategy game or something like that...:P

Possibly. Don't know. The game is still somewhat funny, but I still hate the genre. Back to strategy games! :P

I think that Triton really just wanted to give the impression that he wasn't a total arsehole. Anyway, it seems he's injected a bit of old victorian moral fibre into the review.

Yes it's crude, but that's the way it is. In most games the characters speak very rarely at all and most of them are super-macho American heroes. I'd rather have crudeness than that myself.

(this reviewer thought women were supposed to pretend that they weren't promiscuous and instead try to have an air of innocence about them).

Did I stumble on the Jerry Falwell christian fundamentalist games network here? WTH?

I'll probably hate this game because I don't like FF, but anything that creates that kind of moral indignation must be worth a look.  :blink:

hmm, how can "obnixous jokes" be a negative point?  :huh:

Sorry to revived a so late topic, if my question is not answer, it's not bad.
Why, when i begin a new adventure in chapter two, i can't take my save from chapter 1?
If i do that, i have the same team, with my gear and level but with some items "glitch".
All the time i play with my levels, gears, items and spells i gain from the first chapter is "almost" lost and i go to level 25, with poor gear and loose the gear i get from the guys boy and the intel booster. I've lost a master sword and a tiara, why?

Funny... my thoughts exactly!
I'm a huge fan of Final Fantasy and back then graphics didn't mind me at all :D
