PHC, just so you know, i think that most OHR games have crappy graphics. Very few get my approval in the graphics department.
And for one that gets pretty close to a professional game, check out Blu Eternal.

When reviewing, I tend to compare with a similar calibar. That is, compare it to RPG and games that were produced for say the SNES, Genesis, or GBA systems.

To be honest, I'm glad Rinku gave it that grade. I personally thing Walthros is overrated (of course, I've never finished it and thus can't comment completely on the story). Graphically and Gameplay wise it is lacking, and the latter of which is extremely important, even, the essence of games. The game is tedious, which is why I have never finished it yet.

Though from what I've heard, this is one of the few OHR games that manages to have both an original and professional-grade story, which is something we certinaly could see more often.

I think, although I am not sure, that Cube's system in Dimensions was released before FFX came out.

cube's dimensions idea is very different to that of FFX and was thought up of before FFX was released, but because of server difficulties was released after FFX.

in a game the only difference that should be noted is the amount of effort the creator/s put into the game. the game system's limitations should not be a problem, many people improvise and develop a new way to get round the limitation or meet the limitation altogether.
either way, it all comes down to the amount of effort the creator/s put into the game. whether or not the limitation is large or small.

Exactly, Flamer. Now I don't have to write a big fat post reiterating the same point. Thanketh ye.

Alpha 2 ran on the CPS2, and GGX2 ran on the Atomiswave. Of course they're more likely to look better. Atomiswave is a fucking Arcade Dreamcast.

Also, don't make me pull out my Alpha 3 and CVS sheets to prove you wrong. There are so many differences in them it's not even funny.

"Fine. I will, from now on, compare OHR games to professional games made for a system that isn't ten years old. Man, do these OHR games suck or what?"
Actually, no they don't suck. Origin is much better than, say, FFX-2.

"Fine. Prove it. Make a game with the same kind of gameplay as Fallout, Baldur's Gate, hell, Wasteland (graphics aren't a consideration when comparing with the original then) with the OHR engine."
Funny you say that, considering that you're one of the people whining because games use "old graphics".
Also, why would anyone want to remake crappy games like that? Unless it's to improve it.

Ok, this is a little bit offtopic. As much as you want to repel his arguement, please do play the games (Fallout, Wasteland) before you say they're crappy.
