Dragon and Weed: Origins - Prologue

什么傻逼游戏，真就点点的ppt？还一直给我卡星空看不到正常的画面，按个空格才显示，空格又是设置菜单，真有你的嗷，退出游戏就是杀毒软件报错可以操作。牛

This is my opinion just for the PROLOGUE based on what I experienced and what I feel after finished watching. I received the Chapter 1 for free from the developer giveaway itself but I haven't watching it yet. PROS --Artstyle. I like the type of the simple character and environment drawing artstyle. --Dialogue/story. For me at least, the story is good to listen. I'm quite curious to know next chapter. CONS --I think this game is buggy, sometimes after finished cutscene especially the pink purple galaxy with stars, it keep repeating after I click to the next cutscene, I heard the voice, but the image is stuck and repeat on the galaxy scene with no subtitles for more than 6 times. In other case, if I press spacebar which is pause and menu, and after return to play, the cutscene and the commentator also repeat himself spoke again from previous dialogue. --After each cutscene, it took few second before I can click to go to next cutscene. And this makes the story feels like pausing and pausing. Imagine you had conversation with someone, every time you talk there is 3 to 6 second gap before you reply to each other. Its like thinking continuosly. In short, not smooth enough. RECOMMENDATION --Background music. I'm aware this is like digital novel/story, but its quite boring without music. Especially every cutscene transtion, conversation that is not smooth. The intro and outro have some good music and I appriciate that. Just simple music will make a difference. Background music it is not really necessary, but this type of digital story, the experience will be much improve if some BGM added. Just improve the cutscene timing transition and the conversation part.

Плюсы: +Хорошая озвучка.(Даже мне не понимающему англиский, понравилось как войсеры старались и не переигрывали) +Хорошая музыка. +Интересные персонажи и не совсем клишированный сюжет. +Локализация. И на этом все плюсы закончились. Перейдём к минусам: -Очень дерганные переходы между "сценами". -Нету автопрокрутки, от чего ты тыкаешь постоянно сам клавишу "дальше". -Бюджетность анимаций прёт прямо таки со всех "щелей". Это иногда портит логику происходящего. (Например сцена с тремя солдатами и вертолётом. Один солдат тупо "растворился", а остальные двое даже не подумали занять укрытия, потому что это же надо анимировать. Мы лучше для крутости и будущего задела сделаем так что они стреляют в верт со своих "лазерых пулемётов") -Во всех новеллах пробел это "дальше". Тут же пробел это-настройки. Причем во время настроек звук и анимация продолжают проигрываться, а музыка заглушается. -К слову о звуке. Мне пришлось выкрутить ползунки почти до минимума, чтобы мне в наушники перестали "орать". По итогу: Для бесплатной новеллы, вполне "на один раз сойдёт" игра. Но если с текущими проблемами следующие эпизоды будут именно "продавать", то покупать такое я бы точно не стал.

this is essentially a log cutscene, but you have to click after every sentence is spoken. odd choice. the art and animation can be janky.

Prologue chapter for a fully voiced and animated visual novel about two elite soldiers being recruited for a top secret mission. Things are a bit choppy here and there but hopefully that will all be ironed out by the full release. Looks good can't wait for the fully story. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2236197609

Meh, the prologue was very tiny, only lasted for 5min, the context was vague, and I understood about nothing about the story line.

Play for 5 min. Just a long cut scene as well as having to click after every sentence which is strange but nothing that makes this game bad. Art style is nice but not really worth your time unless your bored and have nothing else to do.

Dragon and Weed: Origins - Prologue is not a game. It's an advertisement/demo for an abandoned visual novel/e-book series that only had one chapter made. It's a common mistake when unfamiliar with Steam to launch demos/advertisements as full games on Steam instead of tagging them correctly as demos. Here's the instructions for putting a demo up on Steam, to demonstrate that there is a correct process for this, which hasn't been followed here: https://partner.steamgames.com/doc/store/application/demos While it might seem like an inocuous mistake, publishing demos and advertisements as if they are full games is misleading and in some ways harmful. This advertisement is taking up marketing space and visibility that would be better made available to a developer that's done the right thing and created a full game. Instead, that visibility is given over to a demo/advert that's been published incorrectly and is polluting the marketplace. It's unclear if this mistake was made through incompetence or a deliberate intent to mislead gamers, but at the end of the day, I can only recommend full, correctly published games to gamers. Even if this was the full product, I still couldn't recommend it because it's not a game, it's an e-book. My gaming rig is not a Kindle. Because this is just a demo/advertisement for something that isn't a game, I can't recommend it.
