Aveyond 3-1: Lord of Twilight

All the Aveyond games have great story. This is a rather short first part of the the third game, but it does a good job of introducing the characters. Much love for Aveyond series.

Aveyond 3-1: Lord of Twilight is a charming old-school RPG with genuinely beautiful maps, a fun cast of characters, and some surprisingly witty dialogue that kept me smiling throughout. That said, the lack of direction is a real issue — I found myself wandering between areas repeatedly with little idea of where to go next, and the fast travel system feels too expensive to be a reliable solution to all the backtracking. Combat is simple but serviceable, and the touch-based encounters at least let you avoid fights when you want to. Just be aware going in that this is only the first chapter of four, and a couple of quests literally cannot be finished until the next game. If you pick it up on sale and enjoy classic RPG Maker adventures, it's worth the ride — just keep a guide handy.

WELL MADE

A classic

Also, das Game ist ein typisches RPGMaker Spiel. Die Qualität der Sprites, ist jetzt nicht das Gelbe vom Ei. Leider sind die Overworld-Sprites, die gleichen, die auch im Kampf benutzt werden. Zur Story kann ich jetzt nicht viel sagen, weil sie entweder, sehr offensichtlich war, oder aber ich einfach die Texte durchgeskipped habe. Kämpfen ist verdAMMT langweilig, aber der SUCK Skill von Mr. Te ist verdammt OP. Außerdem verstehe ich nicht, warum 3-1 der erste Teil der Reihe ist und frage mich, welchen relevanten Storyinhalt wir in 1-X und 2-X hhätten bekommen können. Würd ich jetzt nicht unbedingt nochmal spielen, geschweige denn, anderen empfehlen.

I got this game on sale because I played it when I was nine years old and wanted to relive what was, back then, an amazing experience. This game still has a special place in my heart as the first JRPG I ever played, as well as the first story-based game I ever played. This game probably changed the trajectory of my life a good bit, and I have to respect it for that. That being said, this game commits just about every sin it's possible for a JRPG to commit. It's riddled with cliches and recycled fantasy settings, the gameplay is unbalanced and unengaging, and the story as a whole is arbitrarily separated into multiple episodes so the creator can squeeze as much money as possible out of their players. I like the characters, particularly Mel and the dynamic between Te'ijal and Galahad, but none of them really get that many opportunities to show off their personalities, which was very disappointing.
