About Broken Ties

Viscordia.
In this world, peace never lasts. Humans are a chaotic race, with ever changing leaders who have no reason to honor their predecessor's word. In the north, there lies the town of Frost. Brokering a deal with humans, the town grew quickly. It was the perfect place for the new King Kalavant to start his plans to eradicate all of the other races.

You have been forced to flee from your home, and must seek out others to help you stop the eradication of the world at the hands of The New Order.
In your journey you will travel across Viscordia, meet interesting allies, and perhaps even find romance when your journey comes to an end.


Features


Low Numbers System
Put off by extremely high numbers? I've revamped the RPGMaker system to create a low number system for easier stat management.

Realistic Monster Hunting
Your everyday creatures doesn't carry sacks of money around in its claws, around its fuzzy waist, or in its pincers. Take the tastiest and shiniest parts and eat them, sell them, or even find an alchemist to turn them into useful supplies.

Three Classes

Be the Archer:
Use quick speed and high chance of critical hits to take out weaker opponents in combat!

Be the Soldier:
The tank of the adventuring party, take a defensive stance or deal high damage!

Be the Sage;
Take your time and learn the weaknesses of Viscordias monsters. Attack with the right elements to do massive damage!

Unique Skills


75 Available Skills
All Allies in the game have their own classes and unique skills, but to truly find power above the rest, you will need to find techniques locked away in ancient artifacts.

Five Continents
Each presents its own style of environment and enemy types, from the icy vistas of the Arctic Elves, to the maze-like crags of the Dwarven mountains.

Feeling tired? Bored? Nap through all those long scenes of dialogue. Everyone needs their beauty sleep.

Fairly generic RPGMaker JRPG, but with some more effort put into the mechanics and writing than usual, even if the writing could have used some proofreading. Unfortunately, that effort came to making the difficulty rather obnoxious, with one of the early examples being that you are constantly poor, often too poor to afford recovery items, because monsters don't drop gold and just occasionally drop items you can sell for money... and then the second continent is the Land of Nothing But Poison, where you need poison antidotes or resting at an inn after almost every fight. Boss fights can also be fairly RNG-dependent, but that's another way of saying they're short and painful, which I don't dislike. This one is a tossup for me. Some parts of it were pretty good, like the amount of options for dealing with the final conflict, and the amount of times the game remembers optional things you did earlier, enough that I'd give it a thumbs-up for being an amusing short game, but then there was that second continent... ...eh, I'm feeling kind of merciful. Recommended, but with a warning that if you hate hugging up to a recovery point and grinding as much as I do, you might be very displease…

In Broken Ties, you get to choose from one of three character classes and embark on an epic quest to rid the land of The NWO. (No relation to the NWO in WCW / WWF as far as I know.) You level up, slay a variety of beasts and other creatures, collect their parts, and craft potions and elixirs to aid you on your journey. You can also find hidden artifacts throughout the land that will grant you special bonus abilities when you extract the power from them. Is your party's health and mana suffering? Stay at the local inn, or purchase some food and water to replenish their life force! THEN, back on the road to start slaying and questing once more! I won't give away too much of the story, but there are a couple of scenes that remind me a little of the movie Avatar, and we all know Avatar was a pretty good movie! I got a few hours of enjoyment out of Broken Ties, and the developer is very active and helpful if you have any questions!

Well, it says I played the game for 7 minutes three years ago, and I didn't refund it, so I guess that means I believed it would be good. The whole thing about the New Order and the revamped numbers really caught my interest. Will have to sink my teeth into it later.

A nice, fun little RPGmaker game. Same sex options for relationships are a plus. 20 lvl cap and a possible glitch that lets you max up your party by constantly fighting a minotaur.

This game is so much fun especially if you like older style RPGs. Make sure to look at the controls at the bottom of the page before starting.
