    39 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    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 lore 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 mediocre plot and subpar writing.”
  • gameplay
    7 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Gameplay in the game is characterized by a challenging start due to a grinding mechanic, but players appreciate the option to select difficulty levels, enhancing their experience. The inclusion of directional arrows helps navigate the game world, addressing potential confusion. Overall, while the gameplay is noted to be more difficult than previous installments, it is well-designed and enjoyable, with excellent artwork complementing the experience.

    • “I love how you can select your level of difficulty (I always select story mode for a more visionary and involved gameplay). You can select arrows that show you overall where to go, because it can be easy to get lost or take too long to find your way in these games. This is a big plus for me.”
    • “The artwork is excellent, and the gameplay is great and problem-free.”
    • “But the game design and gameplay are great, so I definitely enjoyed this challenge.”
    • “The game can be difficult at the beginning due to the grinding mechanic.”
    • “From the gameplay perspective, Millennium 4 is a bit harder and more unforgiving than the first three games.”
    • “This episode tells you about how desperate the marine, the main character, is in getting 3 new characters for her party within a time limit, which doesn't affect the gameplay.”
  • graphics
    6 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The graphics in the game are a mixed bag; while the fourth installment showcases improved visuals and graphical effects, the RPG Maker engine limits full HD support and lacks customization options, leading to a subpar experience in fullscreen mode. Despite these technical shortcomings, the artwork is praised as excellent, contributing positively to the overall gameplay experience.

    • “The 4th installment in the game features even better visuals and graphical effects, enhancing the overall experience.”
    • “The artwork is excellent, contributing to a great and problem-free gameplay experience.”
    • “The plot gets even thicker with new quests, presenting an even better challenge alongside improved visuals.”
    • “Like all RPG Maker games, the poor quality engine displays badly in fullscreen and doesn't have full HD support or any graphics tweaking options.”
  • music
    5 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The music in the game is highly praised for its emotional depth and motivational energy, enhancing the overall experience. Reviewers highlight the melodic and catchy tunes, as well as the effective use of background scores that complement key moments in the gameplay. Unlike many other games that feature repetitive audio, this title stands out with its unique and engaging soundtrack.

    • “Despite the numerous screens, the energetic background music that was played in these maps also motivates you as you play.”
    • “There will be some touching moments when she feels uncertain whether she'll make it or not, which I found to be executed perfectly - both the background music and writing were done well to make you feel emotional.”
    • “Also, the music score is one of the best ever, and has some very melodic catchy tunes, and soft moody background expressions in the scores.”
    • “Many of the games seem to repeat the same flat audio/music, and I am happy to see the Millennium series is more unique.”
  • grinding
    4 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Players note that the game features significant grinding, particularly for achievements that require 4+ hours of effort. The grinding mechanic can make the early stages challenging, and many users report spending additional time replaying the game to unlock various grind-heavy achievements.

    • “The game can be difficult at the beginning due to the grinding mechanic.”
    • “I spent the rest of my playtime to get the other grindy achievements and replaying the game again from the beginning with a fresh save to test if one achievement will be granted that way.”
    • “The in-game clock says that I finished the game in 11.5 hours with an imported save from the previous game, and that's after grinding for 2-3 hours for an achievement.”
  • emotional
    4 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game features well-executed emotional moments, particularly during scenes of uncertainty, enhanced by effective background music and writing. While some players find these moments touching, others feel the overall story lacks depth, though it is noted to be more thrilling and emotional than previous installments.

    • “There will be some touching moments when she feels uncertain whether she'll make it or not, which I found to be executed perfectly - both the background music and writing were done well to make you feel emotional.”
    • “There's some very good emotional moments and a lot of it is accented by the fact that they are so pressed for time.”
    • “More thrilling and emotional than the previous parts.”
  • humor
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    • “There is plenty to tell as you go along, and Aldorlea does so without letting the story bog down a single bit.
