The Sword of Rhivenia

[h1]PLAY THE REMAKE INSTEAD[/h1] Not gonna lie, the current Steam version of The Sword of Rhivenia is simply not very good. It has some great ideas, but that doesn't matter much when the execution falls short. [b]So, why did I give it a thumbs-up? Well, the only reason is that I wanted to show my support for the upcoming remake, which takes the original idea and improves upon it in every way.[/b] As I mentioned earlier, the current version is mediocre at best, so the author decided to completely rewrite it. Honestly, I think that turned out to be a great decision. [b]If you want to give it a try, google "The Sword of Rhivenia (Remake)" and you'll find the free demo.[/b]

Seeing some of the negative reviews for this I was kind of wary but the premise was enough to buy me in. It has some minor writing problems and a kind of rushed ending, but overall it's a pretty interesting ride where you really get to craft your character and their presence in the world. And the ending could be mostly forgiven if they actually plan on a sequel, which I hope happens, but doubtful. Discounted, it's a steal. Full price? Personally, I'd say it's still worth it. It's as good if, not better, than similarly priced novels.

I've been a fan of this game since the demo and am really looking forward to the sequel, however, there is one(maybe two?) feature I would really like to see added if possible: a save/load option. I often find myself having to restart the game from the beginning after making a decision that I misinterpreted or was executed in a way I did not intend. I understand that not being able to go back and undo things helps with the realism and immersion but I think it can also be a detriment to the game. I spend more time quick-firing through the story to get back to where I was to make a choice more in line with what I initially wanted than actually trying new routes and interactions.

I have played many of these games made by hosted and this one is the best one out there, the writing is great and the relationships feel real its a shame the developer stopped making part 2 hopefully she continues it because it has the potential to be even better than the first one. Link for the start of part 2 https://dashingdon.com/play/nutellaqueen/tsor-book-two/mygame/

This book is mainly for creating your character and relationships- the overall story is abrupt, but I actually suggest it! If you're still hesitant, wait until book 2 comes out and see then.

Good but short, a few outcomes are railroaded in. Its been a long time but still no part 2, so I suspect this will never be properly completed.

Really makes you feel the burden and responsibility come with the throne and your choices.

La historia esta bien, no obstante algunas de las habilidades no parecen tener efecto en las decisiones, además de que varios de los personajes que tienen una barra de relación apenas interactúas con ellos. A parte de eso, el juego es muy entretenido y la historia es interesante.
