Aveyond 4: Shadow of the Mist

If you love turn-based RPG games, you'll love this. This is one of my favorites. Love the humor!!! Would love to see more RPGs like this!

I will say this game plays very differently from the others in the series. That being said it was still very enjoyable and I loved ho much play time there was. I didn't find the characters as lovable as previous games either but really liked the dialogue written between them. I also liked the revamped fighting style and new game play aspects that were included with this game. Overall I would definitely recommend this game.

Great plot and maps, nice to see the Aveyond stable is still being increased by quality titles.

This is one of those games where I wish I could give it a neutral recommendation. I'm giving it a positive review, but just barely. See, the game starts out fairly strong, with a charming plot and characters. I love the idea of a retired supervillain having to come out of retirement to go on a quest that will lead to him becoming a hero against his will and save the world. And the idea of a supervillain retirement community, where the game begins, is just great. The problem is that this all falls apart about halfway through the game. Boyle, the supervillain main character, gets shoved into the background and turned into a joke as more characters are introduced, with a new, far less interesting elf character taking his place as the protagonist. The plot also gets bogged down into really annoying fetch quests and then gets wrapped up in a sequel hook for a sequel that never happened. As for the gameplay, it starts out rough and then becomes tedious. Maps are maze like and take forever to traverse due to the characters' slow movement speed, which is combined with TONS of backtracking in those fetch quests. This all comes to a head in an absolutely infuriating puzzle section in the middle half where, if you don't have a guide, you'll probably end up pulling your hair out. Combat is fine, but lackluster. There's no depth to it and you have to do a fair amount of grinding in the latter half of the game. In the hands of a better writer and designer, this could have been something really special. Instead it's just okay. Get it on sale and give it a shot, just be prepared for when the wheels come off.

Great game, played this before and am replaying again its so much fun, lots of quest and things to find and do

Finished Aveyond 4: Shadow of the Mist. A good RPG maker game in the style of the previous 3 games. This time focused on Boyle, a reluctant retired villain forced into saving the world (and his minion Fang). Little grinding required as long as you don’t avoid all enemies and the sidequests are ok-to-good. Includes both fairly simple quests and multipart quests that start near the beginning of the game and complete later; there are also some unmarked quests focused on the player noting NPC speech and remembering to fetch them certain items or go certain places. A bit too much backtracking with only moderate movement speeds and no player maps although the different zones / maps are simple enough that you don’t get lost.

yes

jrpg精品，推荐。 游戏节奏把握得非常好，探索地图，剧情和任务穿插，不会让人觉得无聊，要刷怪练级什么的。 这系列从2006年开始接触，除了分4章才讲完的第3作，其他都通关了。不知道还有下一作不。

I liked this game, nice idea for a story.

I am a huge fan of the entire Aveyond series, and each game has its own charm. I've replayed all of them numerous times, I highly recommend this and any other Aveyond game.
