Hello everyone! In this RPG Maker Let's Play, we explore the open world of Radiant Arc by Linky/Danny... well, we explore the prologue anyway.

This game has amazing visuals, with some of the best mapping we've seen in a while. The battle system is easy to learn, and the plot, while tropish, is charming. The secondary characters are solidly written and provide a great back drop.

The biggest issue is with the main character, whose personality is all over the map. He needs to be more cohesively written from the beginning of the game, so we can tell what we're dealing with out of the starting gate.

There is also an issue with the time jumps in the beginning.

Lastly, the prologue is about an hour long (about the length of Oblivion's progloue) and may or may not be off-putting for some players.

But overall, this is a fantastic game with a lot of good potential. Can't wait to see what the developer comes up with next.
