Hey everyone. I've been snowed in and had no internet so sorry I've been MIA.
Mapping - Im doing some adjusting. I have this problem with making everything symetrical but im trying to correct that. I used to use RM2K3 and I had the exact same problem. All mountains were perfectly symetrical and all the cities had equal buildings on each side. But it will be fixed. Im slowly getting the hang of it. Just habit you know?
Battles - I guaruntee that none of these should be drawn out. Most boss fights are modified so that, even though they are longer than regular fights, they have special events in them to keep it interesting. But if your taking more than 7 minutes on the boss fights, then either your not strong enough or there is a glitch because I made sure that the regular fights shouldnt take more than 3 minutes and the boss fights more than 7.
About what the Blue Mage saying being cheesy...well...yea I guess. To be honest, that whole Blue Mage / Dragon scene was a last minute addition to the demo, so I have time to correct it. Just a simple opening.
