Edolie

This game has everything I like: It's long, there are loads of side quests, there are Troll Trees to find which give funny advice. The fights are quite challenging and you have to think about strategy. Lots of interaction between the characters, and a couple of romances can be developed. The graphics are great and so is the music. The character portraits are really well done and you can get an artist to paint everyone on your team. The game is very complicated and I couldn't do it all the first time I played. But Rex9999 has done a marvellous Completionist Guide which helped me get there. Definitely worth playing.

The stereotypical RPG Maker title with bad grammar and anime-esque graphics. Don't get me wrong, I wanted to like this game (because I like RPG Maker). It just wasn't good.

I'm a big fan of Nausicaa, the red haired heroine of Studio Ghibli. I saw Edolie and it had a red haired heroine. Okay, you've got my attention. Her name is Willow? You don't say, that is awesome, I'm on board. While I usually like to have achievements as 'goals' to reach, the lack of in Edolie does not take away from it as a game. If it had them it would definitely make playthroughs more enjoyable but I digress. In this title, there are a lot of quests to take on and a lot to explore in the world of Edolie, making for a very worthwhile game. (Willow is mine and you can't have her!)

I bought this game in a sale for really cheap, but it totally worth the whole price without any discounts. The game has a really nice enjoyable theme and really nice art work. Love how happy this game is meanwhile also everything is turned upside down by evilness. The story itself is also really nice, there totally has been thought good about it and all makes sense in the end. Even though the game isn't that hard, the final boss really is hard. It takes a really long time. Because of that I didn't played it for a few little months and just now tried it again. Once you understand it, it will get easy but still takes a lot of time. So I realised I gave up way too soon. Regretting that now. The only down point I would give this game is about the little side missions you can do. I would go out and search for whatever I needed to find but when you realised you've gone way to far into the game, you cannot finish that quest anymore. Meanwhile it keeps staying in your journal. But anyways, a really good joyfull game for that price. :3

I did finished this game on my channel. If you are curious about the gameplay, you can check my youtube channel. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LQKhiZFcAdw&list=PLlCSaIQsfZRfhBKhWSM9Lh_8HqlU461sx Here is my thoughts: Overall I think this game offer something similar compare to similar game and genre in terms of battle system. For me, the story is what separates this game from other similar genre. When was the last time you play a game that talks about harvest? These will be my pros, neutral and cons. *neutral by this context is depends on the player. For example, long story listed as neutral because if you like the story it becomes the pros, but if you dislike it, it becomes the cons. pros -interesting story - multiple ending Neutral -long story -Similar battle system/gameplay Cons -some quest needs something from other quest -some quest can't be done anymore when you at other region. So, you must finish the side quest at the place or you can't complete it anymore. - some character needs an equipment that does not available at the shop. Example, Tyre.

(This is a review for up to the point where you enter a different realm with the fairies/faeries and have to destroy the plants. No matter how many times I walked around the map, I couldn't find that last enemy and I was unable to progress at all. I am and was uncertain of what to do, but I am not even mad, just a tad bit disappointed that I wont get to the ending. Although, I will make up my own ending regardless. :) ) The game (up to the point listed above) is very pretty. A lot of work went into designing the levels and it shows! There is no dash and lots of walking back and forth, so you get to enjoy the beauty of it all. I will say that if you want a quick game, this wont work... especially if you are trying to do quests. Oh boy, are there a lot of side quests? Nope! But it will seem like a lot, because you not only have to memorize the person who gave you the quest, you will also have to remember what they wanted. There is a snippet in the quest log about it... but otherwise: this game's bonus? It trains your memory! You can also just write it down... not a deal breaker. :) Story line is fine and has its twists. I will be working with it, so I can "guess" the ending (again, problem listed above). There isn't much of character development/background (Their backgrounds are VERY mysterious)... just a tiny bit maybe... I can't tell you anything special about them. There is a "grand event" that happens between two characters and to be honest, it was a strange occurrence. If what happened IS true, that means the characters learned about one another off screen. I also like what they look like and they aren't really annoying, but ONE of them could be... if you let her get to you. Don't do it. Enjoyment was had and that is important. Although unfinished for me, I wish much luck to you, that your game play wont face the same fate. I DO hope you get to reach the end and see for yourself more of the pretty world. :) As for me... I will rest and perhaps next time I hover over the title and start a new game... it will be a different lucky event for me! Thank you for the game. It was definitely different/prettier than some other RPGS and I really appreciate the roads that lead you to your destination... very important feature for someone like me. Thank you!!! :> :) =)

[b][u]Light Spoilers on an optional side thing later in the game and on a minor thing that happens during the story, you'll be warned.[/u][/b] The graphics and music are what you'd expect, fairly good. The story is most certainly quite interesting. That plus all the side quests and stuff you can find and do, along with the journal so you don't forget a side quest if you start it, are very good things to have. But, speaking of the story, the very last bit of the ending through the soulstress route makes me wonder if I need to complete the game in a different book topic route, or all three, or at a different difficulty to get a more thorough explanation, and perhaps, given what it is, more? Or is it there just for no reason other than it being nonsense? If it's the latter, then I would be stunned by why the story would just decide to leap off a cliff, but given how the game is, I don't think it's there for no reason. At least I hope so, otherwise that would be another negative. Unfortunately, the balance seems bad in my opinion. Some skills will just do nothing in the late game, and sometimes a skill will just straight up heal the enemy, forcing you to through trial and error figure out what you can use to actually attack. Now this would have been an interesting mechanic should it have been taught at all, and shown which skills heal what type of enemy, but as it is right now, it's just an annoyance that will sometimes happen. Luckily, it seems more on the rare side of things as I didn't encounter it that much. Another bad thing is the game design. There's an early choice about the book topic that you can make, and if you choose the Soulstress one, you will [b][u]NOT[/u][/b] be able to get all the characters, as Eliza [spoiler]will not come in and rescue you, thus joining your party.[/spoiler] Why they'd have this specific route have that and the other two be able to get Eliza is beyond me. I can only attribute it to terrible game design. Also, it's not that flexible in where you can go, there's some times where it just locks you into staying in a room and into just going forward, I'd like to be able to go back, you can make it to just the island and not to leave it, but let me move a bit more freely, that's what I think. [b][u]\/ The Spoiler \/[/u][/b] Lastly, in the side quest/side stuff area, while they're nice, sometimes it's hard to figure them out. You just have no clue. [spoiler]For example, with Medeia, someone you can release only in the soulstress route as a side thing, only for her to turn out to be evil, but from there you have 0 idea what to do afterwards to reseal her? Kill her? Who knows what you actually do with her. Nothing short of just interacting and talking with everything and everyone would allow you to actually figure it out. I reckon it should leave some clues at least. Granted, I could have just missed something, but I doubt that.[/spoiler] [b][u]^ End of Spoiler ^[/u][/b] Overall, while it does have a few bad parts, the story is still interesting enough to recommend it. This is on the assumption that the last bit of the ending is not there just for no reason.

we need chinese, we need chinese, we need chinese. we need cloud save, we need cloud save, we need cloud save. 我们需要中文，我们需要云存档。没有官中无脑差评了。游戏初体验还可以，如果放在90年代，应该是大作了。fanatical包入的本体约4元，目前就这，看以后追评。

This may not be the BEST RPGM game you'll play, but it's a fine gem for sure. The story and gameplay have the same vibes as the older games in the Aveyond series, and did a solid job of keeping me invested. Though I will say there was quite a bit of backtracking, especially in the final areas - and missing sidequests with no ability to go back was a bummer. All in all, for the price it's definitely worth it. A good fun 8-10 hours if you're not a completionist.
