To Scratcher!!!
Can you change your review for alternative heroes? I don't mean the score (though that would be nice!), but with the new version your criticisms have been made redundant.

I hope you see the light:p

Hmmm... That is indeed a problem with reviews... Once there's an updated version of something, arguments of a previous review may not count anymore...

Except...
Reviews are usually invalidated when a new version comes out (if the new version includes massive fixes, or the old review specifically deals with problems with the old version), such as with Legend of TerraEarth Demo 2.



In any case, Scratcher did review v1.5, and gave it a higher score (0.5).

Well his review should be invalidated, as it mentions problems that are not in this version!:p

Such as this passage in the review...

"Also this tutorial lacks at least one alternative char, what's wrong with bonca? it has many different colors, attack and anything needed. I don't take it necessary main char being a human/intelligent person.. it just gives dmod a nice shade, and more opportunities as the main character's an animal. Also, the info in the end of the tutorial, is unuseful as if an author that doesn't know what to do, just uses those lines, he'll propably soon goes into trouble and doesn't know what the heck to do.. You also learn a lot more if you do that stuff yourself, and look for the commands in tut.txt inside develop.dir "



Well I may not go into great detail on bonca's, but what can I say? They are mentioned in the "creative" section, and let creators develop them how they will.





And as for the part about using the lines I supplied, that has been changed due to the scripts released with v1.5.



His review is IDENTICAL to the one of v1 apart from the score. And as his review is very untrue to the file (like me doing a review saying that fiat would be better if it was larger than 4 screens!) I feelthat it should be invalidated, and he can review it again if he wants! :p

Sorry Scratcher, but it's the way i see it!

Hmmm... True. If a review is inconsistent with what has been released, it should be invalidated too.

Other choices could include controlling a bonca, a slayer, a dragon, or a few other things. These are not all great ideas in my opinion...



The words above were the only thing about bonca in ver.1.5, and I didn't see why scratcher's point is invalid.

It looks like scratcher's review was invalidated, but to me most of, if not all, what he said in the review still stands for the current version.
Re: Except...
May scratcher feel free to review it again, I don't mind much.

But really, there is not much too be said on the subject of Boncas is there?:p

I seem to be p**sing a few people off right now, so I'm sorry about that.:(

Nonetheless, I think that there have been a few overreactions to (perhaps badly worded) comments by me, *COUGH*Simonk*COUGH* :o

I would just like to say that if a post by me sounds really out of order, I was probably in a rush typing it and have not noticed. I will only ever get nasty (deliberately) if someone does it to me first.
