Hoping for a sequel - Please !

Do you want a fun turn-based RPG, with humour, really cool character developement, great crafting system - and a bit so-so story , but nice enough ? Then this is definitely for you ! I really love the fact that the tank here is a little girl ....and the healer is the really big guy ;) Crazy :) ! And you get to go fishing ! Negative ; The story is not the greatest, mostly because it seems you are in the middle of a book without any beginning, and also not really an end. The last is ok - I really hope for a sequel ! The first is of course because this is originally a comic - so lots of people knows the start and characters already. I wish there was a little intro about it, because I have never heard of this before. And many with me. But the minus is only a very small one ! The Positive ; Absolutely Everything Else ! The dungeons change every time you enter them - and you need to enter them more than once, if you want to get it all. ...and remember to watch out for "Airship Syndicate " ( the developers ) - they sail the skies , looking for you, and attacks at any opportunity ;D

Battle Chasers is an incredibly fun comic series, but Joe Mad left comics to pursue video game development (on games like Darksiders, which only fed my desire for more BC more considering how good that series is), so when time came around for Nightwar, I was pumped. took me a mite longer to get around to finally picking it up, haha, but it was well worth the extended wait to be able to see some of the fantastic characters again, like my boy Calibretto.
