Sad to see so many feeling frustrated with combat. I am contemplating on adding a vn mode, no dev wants to limit their audience after all. Although i am worried what's going to be left out. It's like losing a tool to convey what i want to convey. I am no writer, i suck at visual presentation, being partially visually impaired. I can add an option to skip all the combat encounters, would take me like a day to implement the option, but how am i to express all those things in those encounters? That feeling of Kreios being at the brink of death all the time because he forgot his armor, or the frustration of Heimdal that has to stick around to heal him. I feel like just cutting it would leave you with fragmented disjointed skits instead. If i am to cut the prologue what i am to replace it with? I don't feel like a screen of cold recap would cut it
And the saddest part is that i feel like you guys gave it a fair shot, and it's not clicking together for many of you. The lack of player choice is one major flaw (skills suck, i will be the first to admit i never use 90% of them) which i am currently addressing. It would be very insightful if some of you that feel the combat lacking could hop on the discord and have a discussion with me. It might be just a personal preference that i won't be able to address or maybe i would be able to get a glimpse of some flaw that can be rectified so that everyone might have a better experience
JUST DON´T!
you gotta do what you enjoy,
the rest comes with time!
whiners are loud
but those that enjoy what you do
will fail to show proper suport,
just remember a tree makes no sound
while growing only when falling!
so ignore those who lack the talent to do what you do,
they just want you to do their work for you!
if they had the talent, they wouldn´t be bitching they would be doing it!
it seems the type of game i will enjoy, so probably gona give it a go!
i will reply and rate it later once i do!
in the meantime there are 2 examples of games i had great hope for,
one was love of magic the other was battle for luvia, one suceed greatly
the other one the author lost heart and is currently abandoned!
so ignore the nay sayers, yes take criticism but never to heart
and remember keep going, the rest will fall into place
the best way to finish a project it not planing it, its doing it!
sometimes things will get stale, so make sure you have many diferent shit to occupy yourself
when one gets boring, just do something else!
best of luck!
