Septerra Core: Legacy of the Creator

I wanted the game the first time I read about it in a gamers magazine. I'm a lucky owner of original CD *big smile* and even when I was selling some of my old games I kept this one. You won't find a game like this again. For a reason I can't comprehend it never became popular, which is so undeserved. The story just pulled me in. It's interesting, well told and makes you want to know how it ends. Unfortunately the game had a bug or something which pushed the story forward without you doing the things in between. The game is hard and easy to get lost in, but so memorable.

I played that one MANY years ago, and it's still in my TOP 10 (and I play VERY much!) It's so sad the company's second project never made it to completion because no one wanted to give them the money... sigh... I'll make it short, because everything has been written already. Pro: - The Story (still one of the best ones I've ever read... and I don't see the BIG plotholes some reviewers said they found... play somthing like Resonance of Fate and you'll see what REAL plotholes are) - lovable characters - somewhat unique, interesting battle system - long playtime Con: - It has some lenghts in the middle (and that's bad for the story presentation) - the battle system indeed is slow More than worth the price.

I bought this game from a bargain bin because it was part of a 2 game package with Shogo. I was a big fan of mech games back then. Shogo was/ is great for what it was; Septerra Core on the other hand is just great. The World of Septerra is rich in history and character, so much so that back tracking in this game doesn't come off as a chore or cheap trick to extend game time. Now the game has draw backs, like constant battles, some adventure game flaws [how was I to know that's what the developer wanted me to do], and repetition but none of that is enough for me to take a whole star away. My official rating is a 4.7 stars so I'm rounding up. BUY THIS GAME! You won't regret it.

The very first PC game I bought, It came in a dual jewel case with Shogo: Mobile Armor Division back in the late 90's. Wasn't into RPG's (Still not really) But this game is an exception! :D AMAZING game ALL around, It will suck you in and have you hooked....Even in the year 2016! Lost my original copy years ago, But luckily GOG has saved the day!!!!! :) BTW $5.99 is a steal. AWW the memories! ^_^ 90's....Here I come (Again!)

Normal jRPG Nice world, nice graphics (especialli for it's year) But there are classic jrpg cons: no choice on level up and many storyline logic problems. Being unable to understand just what to do next, you'll be visiting the same locations again and again, fighting tiring battles every time... Honestly, I couldn't finish it without having a look into walkthrough 2 or 3 times.
