Sad to see you go Fenrir, but don't worry, whether some people might not, which I don't know who wouldn't, but you will be missed. You are a great game maker and a great friend. And I will hold my end of the bargain and do as you requested of me. Thanks so much, if this is the last thing you ever read in the forums, I would like to let you know that you have greatly influenced my game making talents in more ways than you could ever think. Although, the low scores on Mr.Triangle's Sh**ty Adventure 4 were harsh, I guess I deserved them, and it's telling me what to change in Mr.Triangle 5. Well anyways, you will be missed Fenrir! Godspeed good friend.

Fenrir: Glad you decided to stick around after all. Just because I
didn't like FFH doesn't mean I don't respect your talent; if you had
left over that review, I probably would have lost some of that respect.

And now for the retort phase.

- There was nothing that I would call a 'flame' in my review. Yes, I
criticized heavily, but no more than I would any other game out there.
I saw problems with the game, and pointed them out. Sorry if this
upsets you. Guess I'll have to stick a knife down my throat next time
I want to hold an opinion.

- I wasn't trying to attack Fenrir. The only members of the OHR
Community who I've ever showed an utter contempt for are:
Cardcaptor Stacey
Foofeynono
Toasty157
... And I've made peace with two of them.
I don't see Fenrir as my enemy. He's a fellow game designer to me.
His style is a whole lot different than my own, but hey, it obviously
works for him.

- Fenrir is not an elephant and I am not a dog. Fenrir is a wolf, I am
a human being. Figure it out.

- Yeah, I probably do sound like a jackass- but I'm always like this.
Anyone who talks to me regularly probably knows that.

- I'm not going to change the grade in the review. I think the game is
deserving of a 'D,' mainly because I judge OHRRPGCE games the same as
I do commercial games. There are a few OHRRPGCE games that I like so
much that I put them in my top 50 games of all time, but most games
made in this community are deserving of F's and D's on my scale.
Now, had I judged FFH as solely an OHRRPGCE game, the score would have
been higher; but that isn't the way I operate. That is why the grade
stands as is.

- On the same subject, I don't even like the letter/number review
systems. I really think they're a horribly inaccurate way to judge a
game, but I do the best I can. My favorite number-based ranking system
is 'thumbs up, thumbs down;' where you either like a game or you don't.

- About the screenshots in my review: Yes, I suppose it was a lazy
thing to do, but as I explained, my computer is very slow. I use AOL,
and for some reason, Castle Paradox runs even MORE slowly. It takes
me an entire minute to load every forum on this site, and the threads
can take even longer. Downloading a game? Hours. Sorry if this
isn't justification enough for you; but I'm not downloading a game I
don't want to play again for an hour.

- Pringles are best chilled. Fresh Pringles? Psh.


Anyway, sorry if anyone hates me. I'm used to it, though. Hate
away!

Toodles~!

LIFE 2~!

THIS is why I review. What happened to the RAGE, what happened to the anger? Fenrir was willing to LEAVE the community over one bad review, and look at what heights it motivated him to. Criticize! And when you get Criticized, fight back! Feel the thrill of reloading in battle! LIVE!

LIFE 2~!
