Aveyond 3-4: The Darkthrop Prophecy

The last game in the series starts off quickly. Really loved how we got back the characters we all know and love. The plot was good and I liked the new features because our choices actually matter in the long run. The story parts of the game were exceptional and the characters were awesome! I was again pleasantly surprised by the amount of gamplay, which is the highest for this game. For me, the only game that didn't do as well as it should've is Aveyond 3-3: The Lost Orb, though I love all of them dearly. In the end, I just want to thank Aveyond Studios for making this series. I loved this journey and would love to see more stuff from you guys.

Last part of Aveyond 3, it was very well executed and story comes out full circle (I don't care what the "canon" is, thank goodness they let you pick, because Edward would not go for butterfly girl. I love Stella, but no!) Also, this way our sweet darkling is also happy so it's a win-win.

My childhood :') runs well with no bugs despite being an old game

Aww I love mel I just hope amanda put more effort on the script to give the characters more intresting

Gameplay experience improved from the previous entries as haste boots are obtainable early on and nothing important is missable (tip: unequip edward's sword before doing the trials). I really do love the story with this series, it was a journey playing through it.

I really, really disliked 3-3, but this one is pretty good! Not the best in the series (still enjoyed the first game better), but a pretty good conclusion! I binged the whole series and came to a point were my frustration of not having the items from my previous saves forced me to use the goody caves. I would have loved to just have played the game as is even if it halved my levels...or even if I kept Stella's spells (you keep Mel's chicken dance one), but, alas, no such luck... SO, yeah, i "cheated" to get though...but half my hours was wondering around with characters that felt even slower than previous ones or just afk. Anyhow, here is what i loved: the plot! even when my bf saw part of some of the side quests he enjoyed it too. I also enjoyed that, after ditching Stella in the previous game, this one gives her more light to shine one. It felt like a great surprise and a great risk. it made the end choice of who we rooted for/shipped a bit more believable instead of what 3-2 made me feel regarding what is "supposed" to be cannon(there is a clear favorite, but even the ending is pretty similar between the main 2 enough to feel like Stella wasn't a throw away character after all). I also really enjoyed the new area, however... What I disliked aside from what's stated above; that we can't go back to the old areas at all! we are stuck in this new world. And, believe it of not, I dislike how little screen time Mel has. Even though I ADORE Stella, Mel could have had more time with Nox and Uma. They were pretty cool and I enjoyed the after credits! I, however, LOATHED not being able to go the the moo hatchery. It really made it feel like any progress made in the previous games made NO difference. Like previous games, some of the areas you do see are changed for now reason :/. Also, the only plot that affects this is the first game and the intro/beginning of the 3-2. that's it. Nothing else felt like it mattered. In conclusion, I agree with others that the last 2 parts should have been one. The plot of the last two felt pretty short anyway. There could have been a good explanation to weaken your characters and for Stella to have to learn some spells again. How unfortunate that this part of the game made certain development choices feel lazy :/ (I even accept Edward having to use a new sword with new upgrades!) All in all, I still enjoyed the ending here! Feel free to skip 3-3(watch the beginning 5 minutes by a let's player or play through a demo), but still support this great series! Fans, thank you for supporting this team long enough for us to see more of these games. I hope there are more risks taken moving forward, but I'll happily accept this as is too! :] Edit: I did miss a reward from a side story that kept me from opening blue and red chests...so don't be surprised if i used this excuse to play this game again (and gain more hours playing this game xD)
