Thoughs on sword of rhivineia and rewrite
I will be honest. I've played the old version, and i didnt like. It was like the game was completely incomplete. Most scene and dialogue seems rushed, and at certain point of the game even the story stopped making sense. In addition, i dont even know what most of the status was suppose to do. But i love the story, the plot, and characters. So i was sad, so much potential was lost beacause the lack of emotion in the words.
That said, wow. The rewrite is exactly--- Actually, is even more than I expected. The essence was maintained, but the author really did an incredible job giving each character a new life. The dialogues are longer, the emotions seem more real, and the personalities of each person seem more faithful to what each one represents (back in the old version, their personalities and how they react were a bit confusing ). The author also added more backgroud to some things that lacked information (like the relationship between Alvena and Isabella). On top of all, the story seems to be going in a slower pace, which in my opinion is better for creating a more immersive experience and a better familiarity with the universe. The story now has some new content too, which brings me to one question. Do you think there will be some kind of magic now?
(spoiler ahead) >! At some point of the game we see Erwin pov, and he is referred to having "a power". Also there is the whole thing with the tree and the witches, and our MC having dreams about this. I dint play the book 2 wip so i dont know if this were alredy a thing there. !<
Anw, love the rewrite and i think the game really needed that.
