I have to admit, I think most of the game that are made in nowdays are focused on making money,find a game made by someone just because he have passion for some game franchise makes me very happy
at same time that makes me concerned about project abandonment because there's nothing holding him to continue the project only his will and passion, in this kind of situation all can do is pray for the best and maybe some good feedbacks.
I guess in both cases there was no check if the quest was accepted so it plays like you accepted that quest. Would probably be more clever if the player arrives at the scene but because he lacks information he goes away or the scene doesn't trigger until necessary.
Don't save! That's probably a game-breaking bug. I should have forbidden you from going into the forest until you get that quest.
Basically, this is my hobby project. It takes too long for each update because frequently I get distracted by something, or work takes 10-12 hours of my day (I have worked for almost a year in a nearby city, so when counting for transportation and lunchtime, I passed 12 hours of my day working), right now, my work is in the same city, but it's a little far and I still don't have a motorcycle nor car, and there are no buses close, so I have to walk most of the way, which is good for me to make some exercise since I'm too sedentary and like the PC as my entertainment, but it also consumes 1:30 hours of the day, plus lunchtime, which I stay in the work, because it's far from home, that makes it 10-11 hours of my day.
Ah ok, thanks for being honest and sharing such a big amount of private information. I guessed as much, you have much to do irl and want to enjoy life so I can understand that it takes so long. Oh well, if perhaps one or two builds can happen each year it's fine for charging nothing while doing this and having it as a hobby and working alone. Thanks for your endurance and passion. <3
I am currently playing the origional. Being better than the original is a pretty big endorsement
Currently played maybe 3 hours of remake(not played original, and likely never will. Not a big fan of kinetic novels or VNs at large).I am currently playing the origional. Being better than the original is a pretty big endorsement
Uhm, you do realize that this is about the VNs and not Paradox, right? Ofc the game can't have so many options and side quests as Paradox due to not being about Paradox but the original trilogy. The dev offers a situational party system from time to time which is more the VNs had to offer where around ~90 % of all battles were you alone vs the monster girls.
Umm.. I guess.
Hm, maybe your wording was a bit off and I read too much into it but no, I'm not some hardcore defender of this project nor do I want to silence people in this thread just because their opinion differs from mine. The dev deserves credit for doing that for free (not that he has much choice, the possible lawsuit for makign cash with this would bleed him for the rest of his life).
Nothing wrong in playing the sequel and getting new ideas that can improve the original. I would be disappointed if this was just a lazy 1:1 copy, just in RPG Maker this time. But there's only so much you can add without leaving the path. Think of it like playing an old RPG (like Morrowind as an example) but you only want some graphical improvements and perhaps some minor mods but it still should feel like the good old vanilla and NOT become something else. Losing that old vibe would be a betrayal and not worth of a remake.
Like cd21 just wrote there was an Ilias path planned (I wasn't aware of such a thing but I'm happy it was dropped both because of leaving the original and the absurd extra amount of required time) but I think this should be another project. The problem I see is that Luka jumps into the story way too late to make it enjoyable.
I wouldn't mind to have this as an extra project. Joining original evil Ilias sounds interesting and has potential.
In case I did that Ilias route, it would happen during the goddess sword thing. Luka would reject Alice and accept the quest for the goddess sword. How would it end? I'm never thought that much about it, but just a quick thought, I think I'd end it defeating Alice at the Monster Lord's Castle. And Luka receiving his reward from Ilias. Though considering the changes I planned to the story of the third game, I guess this wouldn't make much sense from Ilias's perspective. As for things being easy without Luka, that's planned to change.
