Una historia muy corta, en unas pocas horas lo terminas, pero el juego es entretenido. Me trajo recuerdos de cuando era chico y jugaba rpg :`)

Buen JRPG.
Sistema básico, pero efectivo.
La historia está bien, sobre todo la sensación que transmite de que no sabes muy bien qué te ha pasado.
Por otra parte, me ha gustado que hay violencia, lo que lo hace un poco más "realista". Es decir, en la carcel hay gente ejecutada, sangre, etc.
Muy corto, creo que en 3 horas se podría acabar si fueras con prisas.

A mí realmente me gustó, para estar hecho con RPG Maker y ser indie es muy bueno, bastante entretenido y aunque a veces es repetitivo ese sisema de combates está bastante bien la mecánica clásica de combate que emplean, los gráficos me gustaron por ser muy coloridos y muy alegres, sencillamente los gráficos oscuros aunque me atraen, prefiero unos gráficos coloridos. En cuanto a la historia cosa que para gente más apegada al JRPG no les vá a gustar mucho ya que es bastante pobre (no voy a hacer spoilers, pero es lo de siempre, heroe, princesa, amor, villano que miente ser bueno, venganza y final feliz) así que ese no es precisamente el punto fuerte de este juego, en cuanto a jugabilidad yo lo noté bastante bueno pero un poco monótono, y no es muy largo debido a que me costó sólo 5 horas terminarlo (con personajes a nivel 15, 12, 11, 11) y la mejor equipación. Aunque le puedas dedicar de 2 o 3 a 20 o 30 horas y sea un poco caro, indiegala lo estaba regalando así que no quise perder la oportunidad, y si vais a comprarlo que sea en tiempo de ofertas, pero porfavor, compradlo porque lo más probable es que no se van a arrepentir. Por el lado de la música personalmente me gustó bastante la banda sonora (creo de 8 bits) que emplea, la verdad me pareció muy hermosa <3.


_______________________NOTA FINAL 7/10 WORTH TO BUY____________________________

Gran juego, al estilo de SNES, un juego que trae muchos recuerdos antiguos, el unico problema es que es muy corto, en unas horas ya lo terminas, si ubiera sido mas largo seria mas genial.
espero que proximamente lo extiendan o saquen una segunda parte.

Muy divertido el juego!

un buen RPG para los amantes a los videojuegos viejitos me trae recuerdos de los 2 primeros final fantasy, se rescata en poco tiempo, muy recomendado para los amantes a este tipo de juegos, a mi parecer deberia ser más largo pero cumple con todos mis criterios para un buen RPG

heehe miss the old days of gaming plays^_^

Memories of a vagabond

What a game, what a game!

I am so happy I did NOT paid for this game!

Ok, Steam gave me 3 trade cards for it, but still....

Memories of a vagabond begins with you as a hero who has to safe his little girl.
She has been caught by some ♥♥♥♥♥♥ who doesn't have anything better to do then to abduct your girl and let you chase him.

You have to choose out of 3 classes (we have never saw that 1 before), and when you die, you will meet Mr. Grimm reaper and he will give you another body (or you want to be stucked with the class you have chosen, it is up to you).

Gameplay is easy: by keyboard or X-box controller (watch out, the buttons are very different compare with Skyrim or other games!).
The graphics reminds me of the old days of Final Fantasy, the music fits with the ambiance of this simple game, the story is fun, but it is so damned short!

WHY O WHY only 3 quests?

God may know why...

Anyway, after 4 hours I have finished the game and I can say, I enjoyed it.

Graphics: 7/10
Sound and music: 7/10
Storyline: 4/10 (it is too short come on peepz come one!)
Total verdict: yeah, thumps up 7/10!

The idea is really nice how respawn, characted changing, fighting and layout is made but the game is repetitive and gets boring quite fast. got it for free on an offer and gave me 3 trading cards so cant complain XD.

Fun enough, for a while, but really short. Having a New Game+ mode is great, but if the point of your game is the "die and retain your skills" mechanic... maybe make the game's main story either long enough for this to happen or dependent on this happening. Thumbs slightly up but only slightly.

[EN] When I launched it I thought it will be just an average RPG, which will be fun but not great. Though I was wrong. It's a very good and climatic (with fun stuff which doesn't ruin it). My only problems with this game is that it had much more potential, by that I mean it's too short, and it has problems with balance, for example second battle on the arena is way harder than the last two battles. Still though, it's very good for one, climatic session, with good, old RPG (by that I mean generally it's good like other RPGs). I give it 7/10.

Memories of a Vagabond is a small RPGMaker game. That's about it. Aside from 2 or 3 aspects that I may like the game for, this seems to be 90% filler content. It's a functional RPG without a heart of its own. There isn't really an idea or a purpose for the story, and neither is there an interesting combat system.

It's unfortunate for me to start the review like this, but this is what I've felt during the whole experience.

Context
First off, I got this game for free. I've seen it around in bundles and/or giveaways a few times, and decided to give it a go. I didn't go in with any expectations, but unfortunately, the game did nothing to win me over. It didn't do anything too wrong either! It's just not interesting at all.

I beat it on Hard Mode in 5 hours.

As with every other RPG Maker game, the engine doesn't allow for resolution options, only Fullscreen on/off; when I go fullscreen, it screws the aspect ratio up, so I can either play with the screen displaced and low resolution, or in a tiny window.
Aside from that, I haven't had any technical issues.

I've read quite a few reviews on steam, and they're mostly positive, which I don't understand. I mean, JRPGs aren't all that common on PC, but Memories of a Vagabond does absolutely nothing to stand out or be a memorable experience...

However, I do respect the developer for supporting this game nicely. From what I've seen, he's been solving problems posted in the Community Hub, and is also launching a patch tomorrow.

Anyway, here's the review.

Presentation
The visuals here are mostly standard. A few of the objects are pretty nicely designed, but there isn't much to say.
The combat effects look pretty smooth, which I appreciate, but it's nothing mind-blowing. The combat backgrounds have a different style, being seemingly hand-drawn (well, digitally, but you get the idea). They're fairly simple, but it gives the game a bit more personality.
There were also some graffities spread around. These were completely out of place, in this fantasy setting. I'm not sure if they're an inside reference or what, but it seems completely random to have these.

The music, as noted by other reviewers, is certainly the game's highlight. And I didn't even consider it that good, for the most part. It's fitting with the locations, but it's mostly orchestrated, which I don't think fits very well with these low-res games. But again, it's good, especially the one from the last Boss. That was certainly a well chosen song!

The sound-effects and menus were, once again, standard. I've had a few interface issues, though. Those problems were caused mainly by some of the mechanics, so I'll right about it when I get there (1).

The writing and story has probably been my least favorite aspect of this game. It just seems very amateur, the characters have nothing interesting about them (on the contrary, many of them seem very childish), and the story is also a very bland damsel in distress scenario.
The game's tries to keep a more or less serious tone (no too serious, but serious), but then throws in some really out of place jokes.. I don't understand what it was trying to do, to be honest. There was a funny area near the last area, but again, it just came out of nowhere.


Game's Structure
In here, you go through Dungeon-ish areas, and also have an Overworld, to travel between them. The areas are pretty small (including the overworld).
There are no random encounters! You can always see the enemies walking around, so you can approach them at will, and when you're ready. I think that's good. Also, once you kill the enemies in the dungeons, they're dead and do not respawn. If you're having difficulty issues, you can grind a bit in the Overworld (a couple of levels make all the difference, and are quick to get).

Other than that, there are a few sidequests, with very minor rewards (both in terms of equipment and interesting events, they're completely filler).

There is also an Arena of sorts, where you battle increasingly difficult groups of enemies. I always like this idea in RPGs. However, the game doesn't take advantage of it at all. There's no adrenaline-pumping ambience to it or anything. You go in, fight, and get back out. At the end of each fight you'll get a pretty decent reward (in gold, items and equipment).
There's one fatal flaw with this, though.
The arena's difficulty is not scaled with the main game at all.
I've only managed to finish 3 fights before the enemies got too strong for the point in the game. I could have endured it, maybe grinded a bit, and tried to keep going, but there was not point! After the third fight, I went and beat the final boss without any problem at all. I had the best equipment available (by simply buying it from shops) and yet, the arena's difficulty was already too high. Yet another elements that feels pointless and misused.
I suppose it was intended as an end-game thing, perhaps. Without an interesting combat system, however, I have no desire of trying it out.


Combat System
As is to be expected, you can use a Basic Attack, Skill, or Item. Skills require mana to use, and can be normal attacks with an added bonus, or status ailments. The status ailments, however, are completely useless against basic enemies, and cannot be used against Bosses (or at least their hitting rate is reeeeally low), so there's a big portion of the combat rendered useless. Most of the time, you'll be going between strong attacks, AOE, and healing. There isn't any deep strategy to the combat. Battles usually take no more than 3 turns, with Bosses being the exception, just because of their amount of HP.
There are no phases, interesting skills, or anything of the sort. Everything is just as you've seen in every other JRPG. It does, once again, nothing to stand out.

Not replenishing your pools after each fight -- relation with Random Encounters and Difficulty
There's one huge problem I have with it, though, that modern RPGs seem to have eliminated. That is how you have to manually heal and restore your HP after a fight. Most of recent RPGs take the route of each battle being self-contained. This way, you don't need to worry about the time between battles, and just wasting time buying and managing potions.
There's another design route that comes with this, and that's taking the random encounters out. With random encounters, it makes sense for you to be "permanently" damage, making the dungeons tense.
With a limited number of enemies, however, that stops working in the game's favor. Another possibility is making each battle almost like a puzzle. Each battle can be harder, but also far more interesting. Without the nuisance of having to buy and manage potions, you can have more difficult fights that bring you to the limit, without it being a problem. As it stands, it just ends up being a couple of conflicting design decisions that make the combat much worse.

There's also an element to the attack types (with Fire, Wind, Earth, Ice, etc. having weaknesses and strengths) but with the fights in the game, they're useless. The enemies don't really have an apparent type so that you can play with that in mind. It's mostly guess-work. But in the couple of hours of this game, there's no chance to use that strategically.

Conclusion
I'm sorry for being this harsh on a small game like this, especially when the developer cares for the game. If this was a first game, more like an experiement, then that's fine. It's functional, despite the many flaws, and everyone learns from mistakes.
Still, I can't recommend this, when there are so much better games out there. I didn't enjoy it at all, due to it lacking personality. There's nothing that the game's trying tell or do, unfortunately.

Average RPGmaker game. I will compare this to an old Final Fantasy. The combat is good, there may be some bad balances, but overall it's good. It's a good introduction to turn-based RPGs as well, if the player haven't played those. Another good thing is that the game is very short. You won't be sitting for 20+ hours like in Final Fantasy. This game features all those things - classes, spells, items, chests, skills, stats in just 3 hours. But yet, it's too short, the story wasn't gripping (at first the game wasn't gripping at all but I had to force myself to finish it. It is just 3 hours though).
But there are far better games to play in this time. Sorry for the harsh words, developer. I bet you are reading this (because developer is so cool that he is actually reading and responding to discussions and community hub). You said you will be working on a new game. I wish you most of luck to make it far better than this one. You have the potential!

Good old school RPG, even tho it's short it had quite a bit funny moments in it. Skills didn't matter too much except I could've weaken enemy while dealing addditional hit on em, but not too much. I'd like if it was kinda longer, maybe couple of more islands and dozen more quests could've made it way better, but still good enough. I got it for free so I enjoyed it every bit. It would've been cooler if you could have totally different stories with different classes (different quest for lets say warrior where you needed to kill mythical beast, or for mage where you needed to open portal that allows people to lift misery from them or something like that). Anyways good game, definitely thumbs up from me as I am old gamer that doesn't really care about graphics as long as game is interesting, and this one was for sure. Worth buying as well.

Although this game is better than your average RPG maker game, it still has way too many flaws to be worth your time.
Mainly the simplicity of the battle system (most special skills are useless and you'll end up using your normal attack and a single special skill during the whole game [except if you're a mage, I guess]), the quality of the plot (it's pretty shallow and forgettable, don't expect anything mind-blowing) and the length of the game (you can beat it in 2~4 hours).

I've also heard a few people experienced glitches as they played the game, but nothing like that happened to me. The game worked perfectly fine.

I wouldn't recommend this game at full price, but it may be worth your time if you really like old RPG games and you happen to find this one on sale.

Short game, bad story and the combat is bleh. The music is the best part of this game, along with the trading cards. This is a game that is not for everyone, including myself. Either you love this type of stuff or you don't. Since I got this game for free I can't really complain because of the card profit, but it's still a game and I can't recommend it just for the cards, sorry.

Finished this game in 5 hours.

PROs:
+ It's easy to buy equipment and potions
+ Shop everywhere
+ Lots of skills
+ Easy to level up heroes
+ Steam cards set only contains 5 cards.

CONs:
- Low variation of enemies
- Cliche story
- Music makes sleepy
- Gameplay duration is too short
- No achievements

Netral Point:
* If you're dead, you can choose another body (class), but all experience and equipment will be lost. That's why try not to die.
* New game plus only retain your gold.

Memories of a Vagabond is a decent rpg maker game, concidering the size of the game and content I would say it's not worth buying until it goes on sale, but I got it free so I had to play it. The game itself was not long as I beat it in 3 hours and all the side quests. I will be going back to play the other classes and modes. The music is well done and very nice to listen too, basic turn based fighting, and a few diffrent type of monsters and bosses. There is crafting but not really worth it unless you make a few bombs here and there to get some secret chests. There is fishing, dosen't really do much except for a side quest. Mini game if you want to call it that called "the trials" a few rounds beating monsters and getting some better loot.

Hopefuly we get a dlc or update, they could take this story farther after what happens in the game (won't spoile the game for people), maybe add in few more islands, cities, some more side quests, items, monsters, refine the crafting system a bit. I'd pretty much take anything.

Good:
-good concept of a game
-great music
-side quests
-crafting

Bad:
-way to short
-not enough content (items, spells, locations, dungeons, mini games, achievement, ect)
-$4.99 (should be free)
-story to cliché (needs a twist)

overall it's a good game to me, I love rpg's but to most I see that they wouldn't get into this. 6.5 out of 10.
