Hell Fire's Reviews [RPGs]
|
Now is a good time to create one of these. I've only added my reviews from the past few years since the ones before that were very simplistic. I'm also only reviewing RPGs since they're by far my favorite genre, and I have a lot of experience with them.

I already made a little comment on the Magna Carta review but it doesn't hurt to reinforce that here. I definitely love the way you went with it with plenty of dry humour while easily getting across just how bad the experience was for you.

Couple of things wrong with the review - first has to be the second paragraph. It looks like you wanted to start a third paragraph at "as mentioned before", but forgot to press enter twice. As it's a big paragraph, it comes across as a bit of a mess to read, and easy to scroll past.
The second is this:quote It’s essentially a First Person Shooter with added RPG elements Don't you mean third person shooter?
But other than that, it's a pretty well written review. Definitely enjoy the sort of humor you use throughout. Reminds me of Vergil's old reviews, in a way...

I write the reviews in Word and then copy and paste it over. For some reason it ignores the paragraphs so I have to do it manually. I just corrected the mistakes. Thanks for the feedback.

The problem I have with your last few reviews is just how close your images are to one another. It just looks really messy when you have a picture, then a paragraph, then another picture.
It's a shame, because they are well written reviews.

Thanks for the feedback. What do you suggest? Fewer images or more text in between them?

I was thinking "more text in between them". Fewer images wouldn't really solve this issue, plus having too few images would just look... wrong.

Alright. I spaced it out a little better this time.
Check out my newest review: Xenoblade Chronicles (4.7/5).
Not only has it scored better than any game from my 35 reviews (equal with FFVIII), it's also my longest. Have a read and find out why you need to play it ASAP!

I really, really want a Wii now. White Knight Chronicles just doesn't do it, especially compared to that... that masterpiece looking game.  Anyways, siiiiiiick review dude. You've definitely solved the picture problem because now it doesn't look cluttered.

Thanks for the feedback. In the future I'll cut down on the images for the shorter reviews.
And yes, the game is amazing. Most reviews will tell you the same thing. For me it's the game of the year.
