So what happens when the fate of the world falls into the hands of the most irresponsible bubblehead to ever trip over royal birth?

My review is based on the one-hour trial. As an experienced RPG player, I was glad to see a new one on BFG. I'm aware that it takes hundreds more hours to create an RPG than an HOG, though all games are the same price. The game play and menu navigation is very similar to most others, as is the sound. If you like character or story-driven RPGs, give this one a try. The maps were interesting and varied compared to many games. In the first hour, the battles were few and easy. I found no sidequests, which would have added a lot of dimension to the game. I found myself disliking the main character after one hour. Her flaws were really overdone. However, the two other characters I met so far appeal to me. Still not sure whether I'll buy this one. While the Aveyond series has become the gold standard of RPGs, their success took time and was hard won. I like to keep in mind their earlier games when I play an RPG from a new developer.

This is the type of game I enjoy. No, it's not fast-moving, and you need to find some very small stuff, but there are a lot of quests happening, plenty to find and do, buy and sell. There are a lot of different locations, and a map you can gradually uncover and use to jump from place to place without retracing all your steps. I didn't get stuck at any time, and I plan to buy this game with my next credit.
