There's no BYOND forum for this game, so I'm posting this here.


I knew this was one of those anime games which removed enough of it’s premise so that it no longer broke any laws. If I did not know what it used to be, or recognize the name though I would not be able to tell what the game was about from it’s hub- it’s tagline is “Do you have what it takes to achieve the Final Resurrection?”; I don’t know what that is or why I would want to achieve it.

The lengthy descriptions on the hub MAKE IT VERY CLEAR THAT THIS IS BASED OFF THE GAME “FINAL RESURRECTION” AND THAT IT IS JUST AS GOOD AND BETTER. It repeats this in the FAQ later in-game.

Question 2:

Is this a fan game? No.
This game is inspired by an old BYOND game known as Final Resurrection. Final Resurrection was loosely based off a well known anime, and that means there is some similarities between that anime and this game, but that is as far as it goes. The game is not based off any anime.

I entered this game because you cannot knock things until you try them, (saving that slogan for the day I get caught with a dead hooker in my trunk and high on black tar heroine).



The creation screen is a series of alerts reminiscent of those annoying surveys with an unknown number of pages, at first I thought “there’s no information for these races” but no fret, the game provides you with another alert for that! This makes me miss the HERE IS EVERYTHING NOW PICK approach in most anime game creation screens, featuring every single hair style, skin color, penis size, eye color , or race in game.



Oddly enough, instead of finding a happy medium in terms of how much information is provided to the player at once, they jump to the other spectrum and give as little as possible, at least visually.



Any way I took after the title screen I was staring at for the past 30 seconds, and name my self MoonMoon, the something I-don’t-remember-that-sounds-like-fake-Japanese cyborg who does Jujitsu. I tried to walk and realized there’s no WASD movement, so I wrist-painfully strolled about for a while clicking NPCs to no avail, and then I remembered what this was, and right click them and selected the talk option.



I walked up to some ghetto part of town, which looked exactly the same, I say ghetto because as soon I walked down the street some guys attacked me- finally!, I want to - wait how do you fight? I tried clicking them, and I looked up and down the guide quickly, noticed it was well written but mostly stats and tables. I just walked away and the hoodlums furious rage settled and I looked at the menu, not seeing any controls option.


I did find this however:

9th Crimson (Toddab503) 16 days, 20 hrs, 22mins
10th Zamm (Union_Head) 16 days, 4 hrs, 43mins

That’s some cold and depressing shit I thought to myself, as I right clicked a punching bag to begin training and did nothing else to continue it. Oh- so basically the mechanics encourage just going AFK, how engaging and rewarding, exactly like real life work-outs and training.

Finally, it dawned to look at that FAQ as “how do I punch in this based-on-an-anime-based-game-about- fighting game?” seemed like a valid question.


Question 3:

What are the controls? This game does not use very many preset controls because it allows you to set up your own controls as you see fit. To do so simply look at the top left of your screen, click File, then click Options & Messages,then click Client, and then finally click Macros... The key is the button you want,and the command is what you want it to control. For example, to macro punch to P you would enter P as the key,and then type in "punch" without the " marks as the command. The only preset controls are TAB, which can be used to lock-on, and to cycle through nearby targettable mobs, and the arrow keys that are normally used for movement.
If you would like to change the controls for your movement please check out this forum post that was written by a helpful player: http://www.frredemption.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=43

What. I hit options in the menu, and pull up the macro list to find out what the controls are for this game. Oh, there isn’t any, at all. A few moments of disbelief later, I close the game.

Using the built in macro system AND leaving it blank "for players to set up their own preferred controls" is doing customizable-controls wrong.

The overall feel of the game is “meh”. Training seems extremely boring, so boring in fact the game allows you to just minimize and do actually fun stuff - BUT then you “get tired” and have to come back - basically turning what you’ll be doing 75% of the game into a shitty version tamagotchi. I didn’t actually fight because I can’t be assed to set controls but I assume it’s the same old same old.

I don’t recommend this. 3/10 Twerks.
