We're almost done with this project. Expect a release either late this year, or early next year!

I am looking forward to it

[Evan20000]

Glad to hear. There's only a little bit left to do on our end before we ship it out to the testers.

Also it features 3 difficulty modes, so hopefully there's something for everybody.

About how long is a playthrough of the quest going to take?

[Evan20000]

Longer than Eiyuu and Umbral Cloud.

Not nearly as long as Isle of Rebirth.


We don't really have a solid estimate yet until we see testers go through it, since it's obviously much faster when you know where everything is.

I might give this a chance even after getting really dissapointed with Umbral Cloud.

In all honesty, a lot of the things you disliked about UC are present here too, so it may not be your thing and that's okay. The areas themselves are definitely a lot more fleshed out though, with having 2 people working on it and all.

So bosses who can have a chain of attacks that you can't dodge because of your current position? Ugh. Okay, i may still give it a try, but i'll probably refrain from making a review if it's going to be the same thing.

If this was the norm for you in Umbral Cloud, consider playing on Normal/Easy mode? Not even meaning this as a "Git gud" comment, you should play at whatever difficulty feels fair to you, don't feel pressured into not having fun. Also this quest does have potions since I recall that was a complaint in your Umbral Cloud review.

This is what we've been waiting for, Evan-- this is the big one! Really looking forward to it, but you probably know that by now

[Norzan]

Lowering the difficulty doesn't change the fact that depending on your current position and a certain combo of attacks you will get hit regardless of your reaction time. There was several times in Umbral Cloud i would see the attack coming but because of my current position i couldn't dodge because there wasn't enough space for me to dodge and Link wasn't fast enough. I don't care about the damage (even though the gap damage between Standard and Stronger was rather large), i just want to be able to dodge attacks regardless of my current position and not being unable to dodge from my current position even though i saw the attack coming. I do like that the quest has potions, i though not having them in Umbral Cloud was a terrible decision.

 

 

I think i'll stop with the negativity, gets tiring after a while.

And let`s not forget that bonus bosses can just do outright unfair attacks. For instance, Crazy Frogger and his lightning attacks. 1-2 frames - and Link is zapped by lightning for 1/4*MaxHP in damage plus literally blinding wave effect, without any warning. And this on Normal mode. Add *4 multiplier in Hard mode.

I would like for late-game bosses to ONE-HIT-KILL Link on higher difficulty modes. Complete with bloody mess ala LsiCV.

Looks great.  Two great designers, Can't wait to play it!

[Mitsukara]

I haven't played nearly as many quests as I'd like, but I'd like to give this one a try. Perhaps I can make it to the Daahku Woruldo.

[Nightmeres]

im looking forward to this, maybe i'll do a lets play of it at some point
