The story of the game is a mixed bag, with some players appreciating its complexity and emotional depth, while others criticize it for being slow-paced and poorly written. It continues the narrative from previous installments, focusing on recruiting characters for a climactic showdown, and offers a blend of main quests and optional content that keeps players engaged. Overall, while the storytelling has its flaws, it remains a significant aspect of the game, with many praising its rich world and character development.
- “This game will get you mad at Indy for not giving us Bokden any sooner, but will also make you cry if you are soft for good storytelling RPGs like this series.”
- “The game is huge, the story is rich (although it's a full-on continuation of the previous three games) and sets you up for the climax in the last game.”
- “Aldorlea has long been recognized for their fantastic storytelling, and this game is no exception as the troop continues their search to find the new members to flesh out the required 13 total.”
- “The bad writing and painfully generic plot are a perfect companion for the stock assets and poor delivery in this rubber-stamped RPG Maker template train wreck.”
- “There is no need to create a new title that only covers recruiting three people to your party members - I can't think of any other reason to do this except to drag the story.”
- “Tldr: Millennium series is your generic run-of-the-mill mass-produced RPG Maker titles with a mediocre plot and subpar writing.”
