Nothing interesting in the way of spells at start and for a long time, no individual strategies, no setups, no neat combinations, no fun to just play. Puzzle matching spellcial move combo game without the combos (I am all for delayed gratification, but I do not want to have to "earn" the game being fun and would like a little something to play around with from the get go).
Bagh, and my saved game is gone as I switch computers... lordy, if only kongregate would let you search for games based on how you saved games were kept (locally or if they actually kept your save files). This is such a disappointing and disaticfy trend that seem to be striking all of the rpg's on this site. Not everyone is just going to live at one computer all day.
I have no problems with last boss.... I guess that makes me super lucky? Animations for all the gem type matches would be neat (a lot of hilarity missed with possibly great energy charging animations). Heal needs to scale just a little as it is useless later. Also, crazy awesome combo amazing set gives like 4 gems, but just sitting their and dying gives 800. More red gems for combos!
Hey, it is that guy from the wall paper inside of popeye's! Why is their no music notes flying off of his head? Is somebody going to get attacked be rawfish brandishing a saxophone soon?
Is it just me, or does Bless do the opposite of what it is suppose to? I noticed when I got it really high, I could not even hit much weaker enemies and I was rolling very high for those 3 rounds (instead of lower) each time I casted it. Is it reversed?
In the first 15 minutes of play I had shop stock as high as i can get it, bought the best stuff in shop in another 10 minutes.... what is money for now? After 2 hours I went ahead and got the biggest back pack just cus'. I have no idea what money is for now. I am winning all the tactical battles no problem with just second level weapons and starting armors, so need their. If money could be spent to break down artifacts or something to get regents out of them, it might matter. I will feel silly if very late game their is a final tier unlock of gear (i see a few unused shop slots still), or if a certain skill will improve what is in the shops past what I unlcoked completely with the first 6 tactical battles in the game (taking all of 10 minutes).
Well, if your going to play a caster you can buy that 2d6 book which almost immediately becomes obsolete. Once you get the craft recipe you can immediately try for the 5d6 book ONCE (2.5 X better!). If you make it, wonderful. If not, and you miss that chance, you are in for a long and painful slog. Kinda flip a coin for the game to be worth playing still, unless you went physical combat.
BAGH! I have defeated and ranked first in the second level league 4 times in a row. I get 3000G and am told I am going to rise to the 1st tier league, just to fight in the same league over again. It is on an endless loop!
Was that grainyness for anything? Or was it really just important that the game locks up every 4 seconds. I was expecting SOME kind of reveal, but meh.
What reason could there be for hard mode being an unlock? I can hope it will be funner? So much tedium to get there though, and I probably will not want to do it all again "for reals". The acheivements do not seem to give me anything.
