    Finally finished the game, and thoroughly enjoyed every minute of it. 49 days, level 46 Elf Mage. Major kudos to Crescent Moon, just a wonderful title. Would love to see a sequel or some sort of expansion!!

    So what is happening? I am waiting for the ipad menu's to be sorted out before I start playing.

    Given how quite this thread is though I am starting to think everyone has moved onto other games.

    What is the status of the next update?

    I understand the next update is currently in beta testing; I'm not 100% sure what's included but I think this is the one with the Paladin class.

    Perhaps I alone still play Aralon... but I doubt it.

    we've done some things to optimize memory more in certain areas, as well as completely revamping the iPad UI. Hopefully Apple reviews it quickly and its up soon!

    Game Impressions

    Best game I ever played on IPAD, finished the game as a warrior but here some remarks and comments :

    Impossibe to access like many players the giants den, tried so many time but impossible to get a green active cursor on the door.

    Impossible to finish the banker side quests, The NPC (finneus) now wants to kill me... as I apparently killed his boyfriend lord telmon. This is quite stupid.

    By the way, it is also completly stupid to let active the quest of killing lord telmon and talk to the NPC in the street who wants you to kill lord telmon...... if you already killed him ! After killing the NPC in the street, this quest should disappear from the quest screen as soon as you spoke back to lord telmon.

    It would be great to fight a huge and tall king of fire, not some bullshit common fire spirits ennemies just more powerful. Same for the ice queen, not just a priestess painted in blue !

    It would be good to be able to slay ennemies from your horse, your wolf or your dragon, exactly like in rise of Ayden sacred odyssey. Hope the paladin class will allow it !

    A huge improvment that would save a lot of hours to imprudent players, would be to warn player that selling or dropping very important items will not allow them to complete the main quests : the spirit dust, egg, scepter, keys... Even more, these special items should be stored in a special quest items bag that player cannot play with.

    In fact would be good to have at least two more bags.

    It would be good to buy some very expensive items like for example : 150000 for a magic golden sword very powerful doing 200 damage.

    it would be good to find some hidden quests that you could only unlock by accomplishing some very hard quests, like finding some plants to cure some npc, but not just 2 meter from a house (like the soothing balm for the dragon) but in a remote place in another map or in a corner of a street of calaheim. Then the NPC will share some secret and allow to tal to another NPC who will give you a quests which will grant very precious or powerful items. This is simple to implements, but must be very hard to acccomplish. We could imagine that some NPC would only come to a place at night for example. One NPC would say : "go to this remote place at night and help this NPC to kill some bear, he will surely be very thanksfull for your help"

    When the game is finished, no challenge anymore... it would be good to be able to access a map with enormous monsters that would be so powerful, that only continuing to find or to craft some extraordinaries items would allow us to walk inside of it. Honestly, only the orc king was a challenge and was impressive in size. The last boss was beaten at once when i arrived with a huge level and kill his demon ass like a nobody.

    I like very much the tall boss looking like a werewolf into a cavern at the beginning, even he was very weak. What a shame they are not many of this monsters around.

    What is a stupid in this game, is the fact that npc cannot detect you even when you are fighting with their friends 4 meters away, even worse they forget you when you run away enough.

    Accumulating money in this game is useless as killing massively enemies will bring you more powerful items... free ! What the point of buying them in the shops, as they only provide bullshit armors and weapons, and very expensive when you start ???

    Last thing : the gonlins are there for what purpose ? Maybe a futur quest ?


    No matter what, a great game, thanks !

    ah it warms my heart to see that when these devs cant fix a glitch they program the game to crash over and over.....

    This is a joke.... I wait months for a update to fix the dim screen glitch and now i just crash when i try to load a save file... I will definently never be buying anything from this horrible company again...
    ps: Congrats this is the first app i have ever deleted from my iphone
