For as tragic a game I knew it would be, I still bought it at launch. And honestly, as a time waster, it is exactly the experience I hoped for. Fast biking through the sky. What does however sadden me is the wasted potential the game truly had. It could have been a comedic take on Pilotwings, but it's squandered the opportunity. New maps would be nice to see in future updates too.
But like I said, I went in expecting some fun trash, and that's thereabouts what I got.

Tragic like... Momodora 4? Or Lufia 2? Or Red dead redemption? Or let me spoil some other game?
What kind of tragic?

Tragic in the sense the game is exactly what you see. It's basic. The environments look like they were borrowed out of a Unity demo, yet it still manages to provide a suitable amount of variety in the six or seven stages it has. The bike choices in the beginning felt incredibly lackluster also, with the starter bike being too slow to be fun, and the better bikes being too expensive to realistically get before growing tired of using the starter bike. This was however addressed in an update, adding tutorial stages with nice amounts of money for completion - letting you ditch the awful starter gear essentially as soon as you've gotten to grips with the game.

It was a good decision on the dev's part if I'm being honest. The update is another thing worth laughing about. It actually tried to fix a lot of the broken English seen in the game. For example, upon buying a bike, in v1.0, it would be listed as "Buyed". Sure, it's bad grammar, but I found it somewhat amusing and charming. Now, while it does indeed say "Sold Out", the miscellaneous dialogue seen in stages is now broken to the point of the puns being lost in translation.

I know it isn't a good game. I really do. But at the same time, I can't help but find myself charmed by it, enticed even. If you have the spare cash and find yourself in need of something you can pick up in short bursts and just enjoy a little at a time, I really would recommend it.

I'm confused what you mean of the type of tragic in momadora revier under the moonlight...I loved the game so you surly arn't talking about it being bad/buggy, and I don't really remember the story having much tragedy...I suppose the story is slightly forgetable but the gameplay is the forefront of it

I am still sad that no matter the amount of skill I put into it, having taken all achievements, including don't even try this, pacifist and imperishable.
Fucking joke, imperishable, no matter what I do Kaho still dies in the end... Hell, let me bend space time and corrupt continuity, I want Kaho alive!!!

PS: And don't even get me started with Cath!

No, I mean the ending where Kaho sacrifices herself absorbing the evil that curses the Queen into herself and later fading away from the world. I.e. dying in order to effectively remove the curse. :sad:
And also, poor Cath, the best you can do is end her fast out of pity.
Also the Pardoner, poor Pardoner, she was just a little crazy, but she didn't have to die like that.

    and i know what you may be thinking, "why become an adult at 21? doesn't that mean that banging an 18 year old would be illegal?"
    first of all, being in a relationship with someone who's 18 is technically ok, as long as it started when they were 18, but the age gap is still weird depending on how old you are. besides, the age of consent differs between different states
    +1
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    also my reasoning for adult age being 21 is because the reason that's the drinking (and now smoking) age is because it "gives them more time to think rationally and not drive drunk"
    so you should have that extra time to mature and think rationally before going to serve in the military or vote

  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    tl;dr the "adult" age and the legal drinking age (and voting age) here in the US should be the same

    It's all good no one pays attention to the law anyway lol
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    What about making kids wait till 18 or 21 to drive? And yea is messed up, you can join army and die for your country at age 18, but you can't drink alcohol or smoke a cig til 21, is ridiculous

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    If someone is in the military they should be allowed to smoke and drink at 18.... Would help drive recruitment lol
    +3
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    We all know they do and will anyways. I think laws prevented them only pushes them to illegally do it. Even tho if was legal, most prob wouldn't even bother. Not a big deal or risque if its legal, no fun.

  • ZeroT21 @ ZeroT21:
    That's why some kids don't mind having a rap sheet or two just so they never get drafted

  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    also, i think the voting age should match the adult and drinking ages too, because by the logic of giving them time to mature and think rationally so they don't drive drunk, then they should also have that time to mature and think rationally so they can think for themselves

    because self deprecating humor is important, as long as it doesn't turn into self hate. because you can't really make fun of anyone if you can't even make fun of yourself
