Fernz Gate

not worth even looking at. on the hardest difficulty, the game is easier than your average pay-2-win browser based mmorpg. you auto battle through fights, because they all take 2-3 turns for the entire game, and the game runs at like 5x speed during auto battle, and wombo combo everything in the game. even if you dont use the 1000 gems the game starts you with on the weapon pack, the weapons you get through the game and the frequency of the stat bonus seeds, enable you to just faceroll everything short of a boss. they take maybe 5 turns to kill. not worth anyones time. the writing is meh. the story is meh. the characters are meh. the game DOES NOT HAVE THE ABILITY TO GO FULLSCREEN. and theres no filtering applied to the 2d sprites made of multiple sprites so they all look terrible.

I've played other Kemco games and enjoyed them. They're always a bit on the easy side...usually autobattle thru to the bosses, and the bosses present enough challenge that you'll die a few times in the game. They force you to update your gear, do the extra stuff...so on. As to being in full screen, I just use fullscreensizer and viola, it's enjoyable. NOT this game. It's just balanced all wrong. I'm less than 2 hours in, playing at the expert level, and I literally can't die...2 super strikes and the bosses die. Ridiculous. I wonder if Kemco REALIZES this game is so easy and mis-balanced?? Until they fix it...avoid. Refunded.

Ah Koei Tecmo, time for another 16 bit RPG that was ported from mobile to steam. This game is quite enjoyable, however its also rather short. The primary reason that I've even played 34 hours is due to trying to complete everything. (in fact I plan on writing a guide to part of this game here on steam when I get home tonight.) But this brings up another point I wanted to discuss which is they brought back the record keepers! Well kind of... They no longer are physical NPC's on the map but instead are labelled as trophies in their own separate menu. I've managed to get 18/20 of the gold trophies, and the last two one my playstyle simply put would make it a slog to obtain, and the other I don't know how to get. But this brings up something else I want to talk about since this is a Koei Tecmo RPG. This game and most others made by the company suffer what I call 'Fourth Act Slog' which I will be denoting as FAS from now on. What is it praytell? Well most books follow a three act structure of a beginning, middle and end. KT tends to do four acts though, which are a beginning, middle, wrap up, and end. However the fourth act KT has a tendency to bog down TERRIBLY. This game's main plot line the fourth act isn't so bad, its more like how much extra stuff there is to do. SPOILERS BELOW For example to define the four act structure in this game or at least in my opinion: The first act runs from the start of the game where Alex wakes up in Fernland, all the way up till when you meet Clangorrah for the first time and everyone regains a fragment of their memories after the Stiletto fight. Or when he finally decides to join the support squad. The second act then runs all the way through to the second Belthazar fight and he decides to join the resistance full time. Or the second Stiletto fight where everyone remembers how they die. The third act runs up until the first fight with Endrey and then gaining the ability to finally access Clangorrah's castle. The Endrey fight in my opinion is actually where this game's writing is at its best. Sure its foreshadowed, but personally Endrey if he was more developed could sway the story so much. The final act actually doesn't occur until you beat Clangorrah and get the normal ending. Since like every KT game there are two endings, and the 'better' ending requires you to do an additional set of dungeons. And here like usual there is pretty much no charm within them. The best thing in the fourth act is honestly the design of the true final boss, which kind of ripped off Neo Exdeath, but I digress. There's no real character development in the fourth act, and it feels like things were drug out longer than they should have been. Plus the like 6 bonus dungeons at the end are just that much more extra padding. But I still recommend.

It's Kemco - Exe time again. Now for the record...I played this offline so my real playtime doesn't show. And for the most part it was like playing something I've already played several times with just a few different pixel. For the story...I guess there is one...the usual save the planet from evil. ahh, let's talk about the differences between this and other Exe games: There is no free roaming around the map...you chose your next destination and....you are there. Of course that still means that you must conquer several dungeons to reach your point. The other big difference is the Buddy system. Your party is split into different blocks. Each block has 1 fighting and 1 support member. Now that sounds more exciting than it is. In reality simple fights are prolonged. And believe me, most fights are BORING. Just after 2 - 3 hours into the game you have access to the ingame shop. That means you can (like in most other Exe games) play lottery and win overpowered weapons or buy items to destroy the (weak) ballance. I mean it is nice to have an level 6 character with an weapon that kills every opponent with a single blow....nice but boring!!! Of course you can overpower those weapons even more with merging them with other found/won weapons. But that's not enough...Exe thought that maybe there are still some 5 year old finding this game too hard...so after every fight your Hitpoints and Mana is restored. I started this game on Hard and than switched to Expert...and it is still so unbalanced. To make it laughable are those scripted fights were you wipe the floor with an enemy...only to have him beat your party (after he lost!!!) with a single blow. Conclusion: an unbalanced game, no exploration, straight ahaead quests (side-quests are just fetching or killing), story overused and childish. Overall BORING!!!!

It's a KEMCO game all right. Played this on the Switch to the end and it was pretty ok on there. I really did like the characters and there sad stories but now after 5 years and coming back to play it again it's the same old RPG Maker crap. The story and characters are great but the gameplay is just boring and barely gets you excited at all while playing. Man ehat was I thinking back then while playing this?
