Super ARTW Action Review for Super PSTW Action RPG
I'll start with visuals. I must say, you are an amazing artis; one of the best I've seen. Beautiful colring, realistic expression, everything. That being said, it was sort of lagging and choppy during some of the cut-scenes. Especially with all of the special effects during the limit-break. I had to switch to low-quality just to grudgingly get past the attack sequence.
Your audio wasn't all that impressive. there was so much static in the mics for the voice actors, I decided to just turn it off the second time I came up to the arch-rival. The music selection was great, and set the mood wonderfully, but still, quality not so good.
Now, what really drew me in was the customization. I chose to play a typical beefed up flamethrower, because there were so many options I decided to just stick with what normally works in most action RPG's. Next play through I may go for the psychic/archer build, for that one really intrigued me, but chose not to for, like you said, they look to be a bit more advanced to play.
The controls were pretty straightforward, though I found one problem. Blocking never seemed to be very responsive. I came so close to dying so many times because when I hit block, it just wouldn't register. I just barely made it through the final boss since I couldn't block half the time.
My biggest problem with the game is the encounter rate is far too high with very little rest/save points or shops in between. It was so high, I spent all of my money on potions, and ended up using them all up before I made two steps outside of the village (exaggeration, but you get the idea).
Lastly, I just loved your story. It was so original with a twist you would never have expected. I congratulate you on your penmanship, and can't wait to see how you resolve that cliffhanger in the sequel (you are making a sequel, right? lol).
Overall rating - 4/5 and 8/10. Great job.
