The Great Gaias

"...If we do not question our reality, we cannot understand it. Without understanding, we shall forever walk in darkness, unable to enact change." A journey that kept me hooked for its intriguing storyline and plot twists. The character development is great (Considereing that there are 16+ playable characters) But with every movie with so much cast, the later part of the games lacks much interaction or developement between the many characters... But the story more than makes up for it. The gameplay was to my liking, it was challenging at first but proper strategizing made all the difference. Usually i would select favs of a pool of characters and stick with them, but this game pushes you (In a good way) to utilize most if not all of them. (But you have ample opportunities to level the characters, so I didn't find it difficult) Trying to get all the achievements (Currently at 80%) and about 80 hours of ingame play. Time and Money well spent! Looking forward to future projects from you guys :)

I honestly don't understand the negative reviews (and there aren't many, but still). No game will ever be "perfect", nor will every game be the right fit for every player. That said, this game does a lot of things very well. For me, for an RPG to be enjoyable, it has to not only be fun to play (battle mechanics, exploration, crafting, etc), but it has to have a good story and well fleshed out characters. This game delivers all of that, and more. I'm a completionist, so it took me about 200 hours, yes, 200 hours, to finish. But I wanted to craft everything, beat every boss, and get the "perfect" ending. And to do all that, I had to grind a fair amount, and use the guide. I could have finished in 1/2 the time, easily (which is still an epic game), but I never would have beaten the final boss, nor achieved the perfect ending. The story revolves around Pots, a thief, who through a series of events, forms a band of characters - The Children of Light. They are all different races (elves, dwarf, etc), and each one has a different reason for joining the group. Further along, you get more involved in their individual stories, and what they and their people have suffered, which really is a nice world view of how events can have a rippling effect. There is a coliseum to compete in, crafting to upgrade your equipment, quests - if you like the feel of a classic RPG, this definitely fits the bill. My only complaint (which to me was minor) is that I did do a fair amount of grinding to get all the achievements. Even early on, you realize quickly that if you're going to 1) complete this quest 2) beat this boss 3) win enough events to get better prizes, you're going to have to grind a bit.

The best JRPG ever made. Literally worth every penny, then some.

A great game. I really enjoyed this one. Plenty of extra stuff to do and I was able to sink 100 hours into it. Will be looking forward to more releases from this studio. Glad I took a chance on this one.

一款西方魔幻的rpgmaker大作！剧情充满史诗感，跌宕起伏，制作者的官网甚至放出了游戏世界观又长又复杂的完整设定，[spoiler]我感觉应该深受指环王影响，比如拉夫们给我一种戒灵的既视感[/spoiler]。 音乐也是完全原创，让人热血澎湃，绝对值得一玩！ 主体玩法还是标准的jrpg；但游戏中有一些西方rpg的要素，比如挖矿掷骰子判定之类，但是没什么存在感，判定失败也不会有什么惩罚，再试一次就可以了，有些鸡肋；还有牧师真的是板甲钉头锤，哈哈； 缺点有一些，但是都是些小毛病，比如换人必须通过酒馆（在我看来很多游戏的通病）；刷合成装备的材料非常麻烦（别怕，我们有修改器！）；角色能力差距过大，主角作为刺客过于全能，几乎是必带的，而一些角色则在后期显得非常疲软，比如炼金术士[spoiler]炼金术师在普遍缺魔的时候很有用，因为她不需要魔法就能治疗队友，但是后期打boss几乎没有作用，完全被牧师平替[/spoiler]；前期法师角色可能会非常缺魔法值；主角团过于庞大，一些后期加入的角色几乎没有太多个人剧情； 总体来说，如果你有足够多的时间，想沉浸在一款西方魔幻元素，注重叙事的rpg中，这款great gaias是非常值得一玩的 ^^

Well what can I say, this is a dumb game, as simple as that, do I recommend it? No not at all, why? Because your main character is a child murderer and another of the main characters is another mass murdering psychopath. Now supposedly the MC feel bad after murdering the kid... nope that isn't how it works, if you are evil enough to murder an innocent little child in cold blood, you can't feel guilt 5 minutes later over having done it. So end result is first the Devs decided that you could ignore having a child killer and a mass murdering bastard in your party, BUT having women was just too much, only a token few are made available and its impossible to not have a guy in your party if you feel like only running with a girl squad. So finally as I said, this is a dumb game and I can't recommend it at all, its a shame I took too long to play it due to my backlog of games to discover your MC was a child killer and I didn't look far enough in the information available to discover their were only 3 bloody females out of 17 chars on the roster, if I had known either I wouldn't have bought it and if I could I would absolutely try to get a refund, but sadly now its far too late.

Great start, and then the RNG madness comes. It's a constant battle to keep your allies alive, while random mobs ( not bosses ) consistently kill your allies faster than you can revive them. Keep in mind I was already over leveled from grinding original area, and still couldn't keep up. Just too imbalanced. Needs to be refitted for balance.

O jogo poderia ter uma tradução para o Português. muito bom.
