I can only tell you a small part of the story because other wise I might spoil a little bit to much for the time being.
Story:
Story update
Whyon,
A world like many others.
A World with it's own legends
One of those tells us of four forces,
which symbolize all living things.
These four forces where sealed away by the gods,
into a relic.
The humans got hold of two parts of the relic,
and passed it down from generation to generation.
Amongst the humans story's where told,
of Elf's owning one part of the Relic.
Where the other part remains,
is but a mysterie.
The once so peaceful elves began a war against the human,
trying to get hold of the part’s which the human’s own.
The Humans where afraid of losing the relic,
and sealed away one part into a certain young man.
Many years have passed and the war is still raging,
and so this is where we begin our story.
Beginning:
Your journey begins in a small village called Borun. You get waked up by your aunt. It seems like you overslept your self and need to go hunt to get some boar meat for the geusts at your aunts Inn.

Characters and other stuff will be added later on. Hope you guys enjoy and tell me your thoughts.

The prelude is kind of generic, and reminds me of the typical Zelda plotline. The starting off hunting a boar (though used in Tales of Phantasia) is a neat idea.
Also, is this perhaps the transformation?: 
Good luck!
-
The whole good/evil power, evil fighting good, thing and such is all over used and cliche. Something more original there would be nice, but otherwise, looks decent.
-
Fusion? Transform?!?
Have you ever played Naufrager Crimson: Legacy 001? I think you do! The graphics are from that game, so is the main character, so is the transform(nemesis) technique, so is the Fusion, so is the battle system...and so on!!!
...aside that, the features look good but the story is cliché.

Nope it isn't Mine will be different

Well I've played that game for 2 hours and quit I haven't seen the fusion and transform in that game.
And for the graphics those are from Star Ocean a snes Game

Those graphics are NOT from Naufrager Crimson: Legacy 001 or whatever. Those graphics are ripped from various snes games. A lot of the graphics in Naufrager came from Star Ocear, probaby a few other games as well. You can't blame him for using graphics from naufrager, otherwise you'd have to blame naufrager just as much for using graphics from star ocean. A LOT of games use the same graphics unless they were customly made, which these were not. And transformations and fusions are in a lot of games as well, and it doesn't mean they were copied from naufrager.

Thanks for that, that was exactly what I meant :D

I didn't mean to offend you guys or something :/...And I know that the maker of Naufrager ripped A LOT...but he did it himself...oh, well. Doesn't matter really ^^.
I like the story much more! Good job :)

Well it's much less cliche now

DragonBlaze using the word 'cliché' is cliché.
Good vs Evil has been used for thousands of years because it's a GOOD concept.
Ok? Die in hell.

Cliche is just a word. Its like saying talking in english is overused. Sure, I could have said unoriginal or something instead, but it would have meant the same thing. And while saying that something is cliche may be used a lot, it doesn't change the fact that the thing described is still cliche.
Good vs Evil is a good concept, but not one to base an entire story off of. Why is one force good, and why is one force bad? Everything needs reasons, and once things get reasons and stories behind them, its not really a matter of good vs evil anymore, its one unique side vs another, which is a lot better conflict.
Having the good force vs the bad force is very cliche and used a lot. And if you play a lot of games, seeing the same basic ideas in plots again and again gets very old.

Its kinda hard to tell someones expresion from text since it really doesn't show emotion or anything like that. Unless you use smilies a lot :]] But anyway, it sounded like (to me at least) that you were complaining that he was using graphics and such from another game, which is kinda stupid since the other game used graphics from Star Ocean in the first place. But anywayz, no worries.
-
One glaring problem I see is the gfx. If I were you, I'd try not to mix chipsets because it makes people less likely to play your game since people are gfx whores these days.
-
Not to be a stickler, but the elf has rounded ears. Is that an intentional feature, or forgetting to touch up something?

good you noticed :D I uploaded the wrong picture

Check this no more good side and bad side of a force :D

sorry for the double post but I edited the 2 system files for the text and the battle layout please tell me your thoughts:
think it's better then my last one?
-
Haha, you have the same system as me (exept I made mine red), so I can't say it's bad isn't it :happy: .
