How's it going everyone, in this RPG Maker MV First Impressions video we take a good look at Aetherea: Lords of the Sky demo from SirGamesOne. This RPG has a great battle system that showcases dozens of custom animations and action sequences. The camera work done on those action sequences is top notch. The custom made character battler sprites sheets and SV enemy spritesheets were done extremely well. All of the moves felt impactful and the sound design was also done well. The core game-play loop and audio selection make for a compelling game that holds up well, even compared to some of the best games on MV. The mapping wasn't bad, but it also wasn't especially breathtaking. There are however a large number of maps, so I award some points for quantity. Let's move on to a bit of the negative. The writing and narrative is a complete mess. It fails to take advantage of story moments to add cut-scenes, and the way it's worded just sounds confusing and quite clumsy. There we're however, some nice cut-scenes. I liked the auto-map panning when you zone into new maps, and some small quality features like that. Overall I really love this project and hope it continues to get better, by removing more and more of those default assets, and using some new tilesets and new maps etc. You really want to play this one, thanks for watching! :)
