Pro Mods are available to suit any gameplay style

Pro Easily controllable tactical gameplay
Good tactical UI interface which is easily controlled through pausing the gameplay. Once the gameplay is paused a radial menu and be used in order to make decisions on how to attack or maneuver.
Pro Game characters are fully rounded
NPC's have believable characters with fleshed out background stories. Many are able to be used as companions of which will have tons of text interactions that are well written and believable.

Pro Action gameplay that is influenced by Devil May Cry
Has mid-air cancels and a control scheme that recalls Devil May Cry. Developed by much of the same team.

LiEat, a portmanteau of "lie" and "eat", and abbreviation for the games full title The Lie-Eating Dragon, is a freeware RPG by Miwashiba made in WOLF RPG editor. The series has three parts, or three separate games. The first is known as "The Lie-Eating Dragon and the Vermilion Vampire" (LiEat I), the second is "The Lie-Eating Dragon and the Azure Dreameater" (LiEat II), and the third and final installment is "The Lie-Eating Dragon and the Gold Thief" (LiEat III).
Con Too ambitious but unable to deliver
Too many components, which are watered down and poorly implemented. Very much the modern era's Spore and a cautionary tale of how a development house needs to work on doing less things but doing them well, rather than trying to do everything.
