    [​IMG]Shinju Forest reviewed the game demo of Aurion: Legacy of Kori-Odan, which is still running on Kickstarter. They like the demo, but think the English translation is bad.

    I would like to think that if there's one thing I'm known for, it's being really quite fond of Chinese RPGs. I think they're ace, and I like telling people so. Repeatedly. Whether they asked about them or not. Games that reflect their home team's culture are something to be treasured, whether that's Japan's Okami, China's Xuan Yuan Jian 6, or even plain old Worms from the UK. So finding out that a team from Cameroon had their African-themed action RPG on Kickstarter was pretty much all my birthdays come at once, and then things got even better when the team very kindly emailed me a link to a playable demo*!

    ...

    Overall though Aurion: Legacy of the Kori-Odan is off to a good start - the artwork's gorgeous, battles are a lot of fun, and all the clever little touches littered throughout the demo show that this is a team that are serious about creating a damned good RPG. But RPGs, especially ones that hinge on taking you through unfamiliar territory, need a clear voice - and Aurion's is currently completely lost in translation.​
