One of the golden remnants of the flash game era of the internet, I still remember when EBF 3 came out in 2010 and it was phenomenal for what it was. This is no different and is even better than it's predecessors. lets just say getting pwned in 2024 brings a tear to my eye :,)

EBF5 is a bit of an enigma to me because it's one of the few JRPGs I truly enjoy, but it's a tough sell to other people. The animations, world design, and especially the music are outstanding in this game. Maybe the coolest part is how the game reinterprets and modernizes a whole bunch of mechanics from different JRPGS and fuses them into one cohesive package. I can tell EBF5 very much is a passion project. Both the battles and expansive overworld were clearly made with a lot of personality that bleeds though the game. There's so many extra touches and content that didn't need to be there, but was put there just because it's cool. So where does the tough sell come in? Well for one, EBF5 is still at the end of the day a turn-based JRPG with all of the oddities and slow gameplay that comes with it. It's a very technical JRPG made by someone who is obviously a huge nerd for these sorts of things, and that could be off-putting to some. The other thing is that well... the game's just a bit stupid. Intentionally for sure, it's very inspired by Newgrounds era flash games, but I could see the writing, humor, and parody elements of the game putting some people off. STILL! I had a really good time with this vibrant and well-thought out adventure and even went back a few more times on harder difficulties. The parts that work with EBF5 really do shine that well.

EBF3 was my go-to game when I was younger... I remember beating it several times over and learning where every single chest was, knowing exactly which enemies were where and what their weakness were without having to look. I was practically obsessed! And I know I played EBF4 at some point as well, but I had other things going on and never got around to finishing it. I am so, so thrilled that I finally picked up EBF5. I love this game! I didn't expect it to have so much content. Even nearing 60 hours in on hard mode, I still have a respectable backlog of things to do + places to explore. I'm really looking forward to curating the game using the custom difficulty modifiers in NG+. The dialogue is my favorite part of the game however - it's silly, upbeat, and rarely takes itself too seriously. The characters make so many little quips at each other and the world around them, and I find that really charming. NPCs are just funny and snarky and breath life into areas that might otherwise feel mundane... it makes trying new equipment & exploring the overworld that much more enjoyable. Thank you Matt! For the memories, and for the fun. The EBF series is always going to hold a special place in my heart.

The EBF series has been my most memorable game since my early exposure to internet and flash games. It's the kind of game I go back after a long break forgetting it, and return happily when the mood is right again. Just decided to support even further by buying it on Steam. The 5th one is pretty much the culmination of every previous series mechanics and imo the most unique take of a turn based fighting game. Characters and npc all have their silly personalities and interactions. Designs all sick and cute with sometime subtle details you'd miss until you look again. THE SONGS is something I LOVE putting them in repeat in spotify. Phyrnna make the most memorable osts in video game ever <3. For the first time in my life, I decided trying to 100% medals on this playthrough. Wish me luck! Thank you, really, for creating this series as a core part of my childhood

I haven't had this much fun in an RPG game in a long time. Better then Undertale, better then Omori, better then Deltarune.
