| Mage's Stance Review |
| Game Created By: Mystic Gohan86 |
| Graphics: Well..default...really boring. At the beginning, some of the rope graphics were cut off when coming down the mountain. Towns layouts were extremely boring with 1 or 2 houses to go in. Overall, pretty bad even for RTP. Theres a few missing files, one of which caused the game to crash and make me stop playing it.(it was miscellaneous) Grade- 7/20 Storyline: Well, I kind of like the fact the main character isnt some battle hungry warrior, but he sure as hell looks pretty cliche. The whole obssession with the one guy being so obsessed with beating the other guy he supposedly kills him. And the whole thing about who Seingfred or however you spell it suddenly becomes evil...Overall, a classic cliche game with some messed up shit in it. Grade- 7/20 Gameplay: Well, the battle system has a few new features such as blue magic, however they werent fully utilized to their max potential. Seinfred or whatever, had nothing speacial about him at all, and during the short point I had to play as him, he was boring. Overall, the gameplay has some potential in Rian, but its not used to well in this demo.(or at least till the point where I couldnt continue). Grade- 10/20 Design: This could be catorgirized(sp?) under graphics. Well the design of the game is shit. The towns have 1 or two buildings you can enter, and some of the people in the town dont even talk! Kinda pointless to put them there I would say, eh? The game is also up to the point I got to, 99% linear, besides the little dating game part, my actions were practically controlled. The towns, like I mentioned before, were pretty patheticly made. Grade- 2/10 Bugs, Text Errors: The game, has some pretty big bugs, one of which stopped me from playing, there was a missing charaset. There were also, quite a few spelling errors, plus he didnt put a space between the period and the first word of the sentence. Well, pretty bad shit here. Grade- 3/20 Overall Grade: 29/100, 29%. Sorry Mystic, your game needs quite a bit of improvement in all areas... Some Contructive Criticism: Well, the first thing you should do is get someone to rewrite all of the dialogue for you, unless you think you can do better. Fix the spelling errors at least. Also, add some buildings you can actually go in, not ones where you click on a door and it says "how come noones out" or some stupid shit like that. Secondly, take advantage of the great idea with the Blue Magic. If used properly, you can whip up some pretty kick ass stuff. Also, fix all the bugs so I can actually finish the game, ok? And redo the graphics, because they are just boring and bland RTP shit. Also fix up the town layouts, and have EVERYONE in the town say something, even if it is stupid. And finally fix up the dialogue espeacially with the little rivalry thingy you got going there between Seinfrieg or whatever and Rian. You should make it so that Seinfrieg isnt actually a spy, and make it so he eventually plans for world domination and goes to outspoken limits to prove he can beat Riane. Could be quite interesting. Well, thats about all I have to say about Mystic's game so, Im concluding the review. Reviewed By: Dreaded69(me) Link for Game: http://ctglenngaming.homestead.com/ MageS.zip |
