Septerra Core: Legacy of the Creator

This is a steal in sale. I loved the adventure and story when I first played this game on a pentium 2. I didn't use a guide then and remember getting lost in the story somewhere. I recommend using a guide when you play. The order for doing things is not always strict. Sometimes you can choose. You will have more and more characters to choose from during the game. In some occasions you want to bring brute force and in others a mechanic (sort of mage). I have not finished the story yet as it is quite long, but i will soon.

The story is great and the world is really interesting and well built. Combat system is interesting and entertaining. The only downside in my opinion is the imense amaounts of trash combat.

Like others have said, the game starts out well but soon gets tedious. I don't think I've ever seen a game reuse so many enemies, and most of the game is pointless meandering through repetitive areas. Also there isn't enough advancement at the later levels--you hardly ever get new weapons, for example. The straw that broke the camel's back for me though was the combat at higher levels: several of my characters would miss way over half the time, making them almost useless. This was really irritating.

Well i first played that game given together with a computer games magazine for free, and it blew my mind with its nice amosphere, story, battles, design, everything!!

I remember playing this way back in 2001 (it was a little dated by then) I think I got the Shogun and Septerra Core pack for like 10$. Great game if you don't mind the endless experience, which is usually what gives some games the depth that compose them. 5/5
