Septerra Core: Legacy of the Creator

I was really looking forward to playing this game after watching some videos of it online. But when you click new game, the game just freezes on the loading screen. I left the game running for an hour+ just on the off chance that this game has the longest loading screens of all time. It was still stuck on the same screen. Oh well. 3

The world of Septerra is truly not beautiful thanks to both good original ideas and solidly executed "cliches", one can truly feel the energy the creators put into the game to create all the lorem all the NPCs, all the nicely done puzzles and all the millions of mobs that will make you scream in rage as you slowly grind through their respawning numbers. On scenes with combat it is not uncommon to fight ten or more enemy groups and many dungeons are made of number of scenesm where movement between scenes causes the enemies to respawn. The combat itself opens in a "cutscnes" as PCs and enemies leap into positions. This takes multiple seconds for setup and then you wait for action bars to fill up. And while there is number of interesting fights a grat number of them are nothing but the most basic mind-numbing grind designed to douse the passion of human soul. Septerra Core is terrible thing that I reccomend to anybody with limitloess patience or willingless to use the cheats to get by the worst of its "gameplay".

I found the plot interesting, taking a little bit of final fantasy. I felt lack of no specific classes/professions during the battles, however one of the two negative points in this game in my opinion was the dev's having put point & click together with RPG. I had to take walkthrough because I often did not know where I was supposed to go or what to do with the items i found. The other point was that there were no save points inside enemy areas to heal the party. But apart from that I enjoyed the experience.

This is a good game but it only runs in Windows XP or Vista. GoG was very good with me and got me a refund because i was not able to run it on my current rig. Thanks GoG

This game is absolutely amazing! If you love CRPGS you'll love this game!
