(buried)

Pros:
- Took initiative in setting the story during the 21st century

- Winged creature with split skull was terrifying, and was executed perfectly

- Some dry humor

Cons:
- Plot was dense and weak

- level design was cramped and ugly

- puzzles were simple and copied

- The English was the poorest I've ever read

- the voice acting was unbearable

- the atmosphere was tame

- It cut corners in most level design (namely forest and drainage) -- hell, I could see the BOTTOM of an area that I shouldn't be able to see

- puzzles that solved themselves (keys that were supposed to be "hidden" had their location written on a note not so far away)

- involved few monster encounters

- pacing was absolutely horrid, might I add, as none of the events lead up to a scare, they only were anticipated upon grabbing an item

- story was nonsensical and an enormous cliche, mostly ripping from the original game without any secondary creative thought involved

- Basement area was small and cramped, and the rods took me less than two minutes to find.

Overall, this custom story was one of the highest voted that I have played that was absolute crap (IMO). It seemed to have been created by someone who was eager to release the story without actually finishing it and polishing it. I would say that I look forward to more (better) custom stories of yours, but I would not be truthful. Please consider working with others when doing such a project, as their creative insight may help you more than you can help yourself.

To add to my last comment, the game autosaved roughly 15 times within 20 minutes during the Famine passage. Yet it did not save the entire time I was in the War passage. Now if I had to backtrack for some reason, I have to redo the entire thing.

There's an oversight by the developer(s) that should be addressed.

SPOILERS AHEAD

________________


Upon retrieving the orb pieces from the final hidden chamber in the War passage, you are assailed by a monster. If you die by this monster, you will respawn in the mentioned chamber. There are two problems with this:

- upon donating the thalers, you are immediately able to pick them back up again
- you cannot leave the chamber, as there is no secondary means of escape

Please fix this. Thank you.
