Threads of Fate

THE BAD:
Well,there isn't anything bad mood at this game,I think.But,sometimes game becomes so difficult-so,that's the only bad think at this game.

SUMMARY:
At Threads of Fate,you can play with two different characters that both two wanting to get Aeon Valen's[Relic]:

One of these is Rue:A mysterious boy that who can transform into monsters that he defeat.Nobody knows where is he from,where he come from and what are he going to do-even himself.He only wants one thing:revive a girl named Claire.Because of this,he wants [Relic].

The other is Mint:A spunky girl who is the eldest princess of East Heaven Kİngdom.She wants [Relic] too,because she wants the throne of East Heaven Kingdom,and she wants to rule the world-yes,she wants world domination.She uses her dual rings for attack with magic.

At this game,you can play at great 3-D areas:Carona Forest,Underground Ruins,Mel's Atelier,Ghost Temple,Gamul Forest,Raging Mountain,Tower Of Maya,and Valen's Fortress.And,you will battle against with powerful bosses-such as Nightmare,Cloud Whale and Valen.Now,enjoy the 3-D action of Threads of Fate!

THE BAD:
The graphics were not up to Square's usual standard. While it wasn't bad exactly, neither was it good. The characters were all done up in a cute, superdeformed style that might have worked except that everything was so blocky. The music was also repetitive and, while it sounded fine at first, could get annoying after extended periods of time.

SUMMARY:
Threads of Fate has the feel of a game that was meant to be played during your spare time. The controls were simplistic and the gameplay was so easy and intuitive that even first-time gamers could get the hang of things in the first few minutes of playing. This is not to say that it would be boring for experienced gamers, however. The world of Threads of Fate, while mostly limited to one town and its surrounding countryside, is a fun place to explore and is full of creatures that you could spend hours just bashing for fun. It's great for stress relief. ^^

The highlights of the entire game are the characters. Rue and Mint, the two principal characters, are as opposite as night and day, yet they both have their strengths as well as weaknesses and both have personalities that make them very hard to forget.

At the beginning of the game, Rue is a withdrawn, quiet young man who keeps his past tightly hidden. But little by little as the game progresses, we get to see more of his personality emerge, and we see glimpses of his tragic past and the reason for his quest. We feel for him as he begins to open up more — the town of Carona and the supporting cast of characters providing the perfect environment for a sort of cathartic healing. In the end, we can't help but cheer for him.

Mint, on the other hand, is almost Rue's complete opposite. Loud and bossy, with a penchant for insulting others even while trying to encourage them, she's an unlikely character for a heroine. Yet she is most definitely a heroine. A princess who was skipped as heir to the throne in favour of her more suitable younger sister, Mint left on a self-imposed exile in search of a magical artifact that would help her have her revenge on her sister as well as furthering her dreams of world conquest. Yet despite her arrogant and bossy ways, Mint comes to care for the people around her and the town of Carona in general — almost in spite of herself.

The supporting characters are wonderful as well, with such a wide variety of personalities that the entire game seems cast in a colorful collage. With such characters as the perky and energetic Elena, the bookish and absent-minded Klaus and his wife Mira, the elegent Claire, the royal Princess Maya, the warrior-smith Rod the Bladestar, the strangely eccentric witch Fancy Mel, and the wise and powerful dragon, Wylaf, the world of Threads of Fate expands beyond the boundaries of your TV screen. The addition of the the bounty hunting duo of Belle and Duke, erstwhile rivals of our two heroes, brings an added element of comic relief and also helps to develop Rue and Mint's characters. Some of the villains, such as the incompetent pirates Smokey and Blood, aren't much except for comic relief, but the ominous-looking Doll Master and his cast of followers have a story of their own and are the perfect foil for our heroes.

Despite the relatively simple graphics and short gameplay, it is the plot and character interaction that make the Threads of Fate such a hidden gem. My recommendation? Go and try it. The ending may leave you wanting more, but don't all good games do that?

THE BAD:
A little to long at times.

SUMMARY:
I want to say first that I love this game.It's alot of fun and has alot to it.I do also want to say that I think that this game should be rated teen because of the langguge and the violence.I do suggest that little kids don't play it cause it has a deep story.

anyway to the other parts,The two main charaters are Rue a tresure hunter,and mint a magic user that wants to get her kingdom back.

When you play as Rue he has a special abblite,when you deffeat a monster some times they drop a coin,when you get the coin you can transform into that monster.there are alot of areas that you can't get past with out turning into a monster.

then there is mint,She uses magic.She uses alot of MP but Mp come around in the game,so she is a good player to use but is kinda hard to use at first because of all places that have low MP potions,but it's still fun to play with magic.

In conclusion this game is very good,good story and great play of real-time combat.And deep story for each charater that you play as.I say that is a game worth buying,and is worth the time that you put into it.

Hope this helps you when deciding to buy TOF!

SUMMARY:
Very cool game. If there was a Threads of Fate 2, I would totally buy it! My favorite part of the game was Fancy Mel's atelier. The animals were cute. I absolutely loved the music and graphics. Blah Blah Blah and all of that other stuff. My favorite characters were Mint, Belle, and Elena.

THE BAD:
well the game could have been a little bit longer

SUMMARY:
the game over all it a must get game if you like squaresoft RPG's which i'm sure you do becsause your reading this

overall the game had a very clever story with them all looking for the dew prism and that was rues desteny and all but he can't remember it and all that mint was to be queen so she trys to steal it bla bla bla well if you want another great game by square buy this one its only a tenner

THE BAD:
it was good, but it was short and the music got annoying sometimes

SUMMARY:
I had tons of fun with it and it was sooooo sad about rue's story, but mint's still me girl!!! they really should make a sequel to this game, and i think that this game was the best i have ever played!

THE BAD:
Um... Fancy Mel was kinda annoying and so were Duke and Belle. And, I was so mad when they wouldn't tell us what kind of past Mint and Belle had.

SUMMARY:
All in all, the game was awesome. I was kind of mad when Rue found Ruenis and there was no sequal(hope I spelled that correctly)......I think we all were. Oh, and Rucian should have realized that will defeated duty much faster.
