I appreciate the quick and honest response!
Lol, yes, I am aware that the game that I made was garbage, it was more of an idea pitch. I didn't make up ten-towns or Guenhwyvar, they are names from the forgotten realms series.
But I completely see where you are coming from with the dialogue. If one isn't familiar with the series, I can see where they would have no idea what is going on. Also, yes, the writing is horrendous (as I said, I more or less threw it together in order to pitch the idea).
Let's say that I replace Ephidel with something less lazy:
What do you think of an actual narrator, or perhaps just a mysterious character that interacts with the tactician between chapters (if you have played Persona 3, someone like Igor/Elizabeth).
Once again, thank you for the quick response, and I greatly appreciate the honesty.
