After beating Pokemon Light Platinum, I've finally made the time to write a review for it. This will be the first romhack I have played on vizzed, and I can definitely say that this game is very well put together and it without a doubt meets and even surpasses the standards of your average Pokemon game. I greatly enjoyed Light Platinum and all it has to offer, so I will be comparing it to the standards of any normal pokemon game. Without further ado, lets get into it. Graphics: 10 When it comes to Pokemon games, graphics are an important factor to me, and this game definitely delivers in the graphics department. Everything in the game looks realistic, and the pokemon themselves are pretty impressive as well. I have to give credit to Wesley FG, the pokemon look exactly like they do in prior games, and the hack itself looks as if it could pass for an actual pokemon game. Everything from the buildings, the background and the towns themselves are all very well constructed while paying attention to small details like the bricks in the buildings, or the puddles on the ground. I also have to say that I was very impressed with how great the Zhery and Lauren regions looked, like I said, this game is really up to par with other pokemon games in the graphics category because the regions, the scenery, and the pokemon are all fantastically well put together and detailed which is why I scored them a ten. Sound: 9 As far as sound goes, the music in this game is the same as Pokemon Ruby's, despite this, it actually fits into the game quite well. Like most pokemon games, the music can get quite repetitive if you stay in a particular area too long, and eventually the tune will repeat itself numerous times which tends to get annoying on several occasions, but this game progresses like most pokemon games, and it shouldn't take long to move on in the game, but if it becomes too repetitive for you to handle, you can always turn off the music. Sound wise, the game has pretty basic sound effects that are pretty standard in most games, the only thing I noticed is that quite a few of the pokemon cries in the pokedex are the same which is kind of odd, but it isn't that big of a deal on its own to take away from the game as a whole. For the most part, the sound in this game is pretty good, I personally would've liked to see the creator introduce some different music and change things up a bit, but the sound/music is still good for the most part, so I gave it an nine. Addictiveness: 10 This is the one category where any and all pokemon games shine....I can safely say that as soon as I discovered this game, I was pretty much hooked from there, the main reason being that this game offers more, and it is just more demanding in general. The one thing that sticks out to me, is the amount of rivals and enemies you face compared to regular pokemon games, in this game, you will face your rivals more times than you wish to count, and this could be a good or bad thing depending on what you are looking for. Personally, I thought it was annoying at first because rival battles are usually supposed to be random, but after ever few gyms or so, you ended up facing them again. It can get pretty repetitive and dull at times, but I eventually got over it and didn't let it ruin the rest of my experience. In the end, it really comes down to how much of a challenge are you looking for, if you want a little more difficulty, then this is the game for you, otherwise there are plenty of other good hacks out there that aren't as difficult. Overall I scored the addictiveness a ten mainly because I like the fact that this game was harder because I've always felt that the majority of pokemon games were too easy to beat, so I really felt that this game stood out more in addictiveness and depth. Story: 4 Generally speaking, Pokemon games have never really been known for having an incredibly detailed plot or storyline which I think is a good thing because it would take away from the gameplay experience. This is perhaps the only noticeable weak point in the game, for the most part, it is a lot like your average pokemon game, the only difference is that you have more rivals, and your character talks and acts on his/her own as opposed to not saying anything in other games. I guess you could say that this game takes away from the character's individuality because he or she, doesn't feel like they are truly your own character. Aside from that, you also have Team Rocket as the main "villains" of the game, they don't really live up to the title of villain if you ask me, but you will occasionally encounter them along with your rather frequent rival battles. Overall, the story is pretty simple and doesn't really introduce anything new to the game which is a little disappointing, but this is really the only gripe I have with the game, nonetheless I rated it a four. Depth: 9 If anything, this game has a lot more depth to it than most other pokemon games, and even other hacks, the main reason being because it has two different regions with their own elite four. This is easily one of Light Platinum's best features because the game offers so much, the rivals are actually challenging, the gyms require you to take your training more seriously, and the elite four is also more demanding than what you've probably been used to. These are some of the reasons why this is my favorite pokemon hack, the game itself expects you to train more, and it also requires more time and dedication to complete which is good because most pokemon games can be beat in a week or less, so I'm glad this hack takes a completely different approach to things. Time wise, it took me about two weeks or so to beat this game, granted I spent a lot of it doing extra training, but if you are committed, it shouldn't take more than a month at most, then again, it all depends on the player. Altogether, this game provides you with a lot more challenges than any other pokemon game I've played which can be a good or bad thing depending on your experience, but I like a good challenge, thus I rated the depth a nine. Difficulty: 6 For the most part, this game really isn't that difficult, sure there are a few puzzles here and there that might stump you, but you can always ask people in the game chat, check the game threads, or even look it up because this is a pretty popular game hack. All I can really say is, it is important to take the time to create a balanced team because you will be faced against a variety of trainers with different pokemon. It is always in your best interest to have as many different type pokemon on your team so you can get the most coverage possible. Other than that, you should also take the the time to properly train your team and level them up because this game has two regions, and it is significant;y more challenging than your average pokemon game. For the most part,?Pokemon Light Platinum?is definitely more?challenging?compared to most other pokemon games, but is still?isn't incredibly difficult, hence why rated it a six because?you don't have to have prior pokemon experience to play it, although it might help.? Scoring Graphics: 10* 25% Sound: 9* 25% Addictiveness: 10* 35% Story: 4* 5% Depth: 9* 5% Difficulty: 6* 5% Total: 9.2/10 Overall: 9.2 Altogether, this game really does take the regular pokemon gaming experience to a whole new level, everything about this game is so well designed and put together, I have to give credit to Wesley, because this game came out great. I would definitely say this is one of the best hacks I have ever played, and perhaps one of the best pokemon games I have played on vizzed as well. This game truly met and surpassed my expectations and I don't think I can ask for anything more in a game. In the end, I highly recommend this game for those of you that like pokemon and pokemon romhacks, it is definitely worth your time to try this game out, and I highly doubt you'll be disappointed.

One thing I really liked about your review that some reviewers don't do is that you give reasons for why you don't give certain categories a 10. I see some people giving the score a 9, and yet they don't say anything wrong about that category which makes me wonder why it would be a 9 instead of a 10. Personally I think that you should try to be a little bit stricter in terms of your review, but overall, it's well done.

Now that was a great review! Well done. It went into depth. I believe that review was better than my essays in school. Each score has a detailed reason to why you have chose that score, which is great because it shows us users who haven't played the game, and for those that has, about your personal opinion. Thank you! |
