Secret of Mana RPG v6.6

[Paillan]

From preview triggers I can already see a lot of broken triggers (marked in red). I don't know if it's a bug from the preview triggers option or if those triggers are indeed broken.
It's actually the opposite way man, you make a good map description and then we can talk about accepting you map.

Ok it's all updated, and those "broken triggers" were in a category called "off" because I wasn't using them.

Hello,
I played your map with a friend yesterday for about an hour.
Here is our review:

Pros:
-Nice implementation of secret of mana elements like the cannonball travel.
-Respawn works good to have the grind factor
-Map design is good and especially the starting area reminded me exreme of SoM.

Cons:
-Please fix chemical rage. It is a nice dmg boost to the male hero,
but it deletes all your weapon upgrades and also the visual of an alchemist does not fit.
(I think this is urgend, because a lot of people would stop playing your map after grinding for weapons and then everything is gone)

-Try to make creep camps more innovative and maybe refer name/design from SoM.

-Your respawn mechanism of creep camps can maybe be improved. It is ok to just have an internal timer,
but you will always have to wait if you want to grind.
From playing SoM I know that it respawns, but you can easily skip it and it only respawns if you go out of the zone and in again.
This could be a good solution for your map, some sort of barriers/zones (maybe town entrances) which respawn trash if you cross them.
Also you can make creeps lose aggro if you go in a town.

-The people in the town always talk to you if you go near them after a while.
This is nice if you are looking for hints, but I think everyone gets the inn price after reading it once.
An extra option to read it again or an interact button could help here

-Its good that you are not game over after dying 1 time, but I think your map needs some sort of challenge to beat.
Try to make it somehow not infinitely reviving you so revive items are not useless.
A possible solution could be an option to revive your team member in town and game over if both heros die (or one in single player).
For boss battles I would recommend a health reset after running "out of zone".

Improvement suggestions:
short summary of all points
-Fix chemical rage
-Zone mechanism like in secret of mana
-Maybe a dialog system rework
-Harder gameplay (not infinite revive)


Sorry that i criticize so much, but I think your map is really nice and I hope that I can help improving it so more people play it one day^^.

1. Repeating dialogue gets old very quickly
2. Player not in cinematic can see all map
3. The terrain is lackluster and plain to say the least.
4. Buying the same item twice not only not gives you the item, but the money you spent is lost.
5. Spells are just normal warcraft 3 spells
6. Warriors ultimate deals less damage than his flamestrike
7. Chemical rage bug
8. Items are very plain and quite overpriced
9. Creep respawn system is not intuitive at all
10. Bosses use repeated models
11. Bosses use repeated attack paterns and spells
12. what's the use for the second Hero that is in the middle of nowhere?
13. Cannot sell items
14. Wolf quest is boring
15. Speaking of quests, there's a quest log but it's empty
16. Lacking proper credits ingame

Overall, this map needs a ton of work before you can even talk about approving it. An RPG wasn't made in a day.

A credits list is required where the names of the resource (models, skins, icons, spells, sound etc.) authors are mentioned along with the specific resource. It would be a luxury to have links leading to the used resources. Credits in the Quest Log would be appreciated.

A changelog in the first post would be helpful to reviewers and notify fans about the newest implementations to your map.
