Oh hell YES!
Jerry you magnificant bastard thank you. I was begining to doubt NG produced this kind of stuff anymore! I was put down a bit after just reviewing "Bubble Tea" and this got me right back up. Breakdown:
Graphics: I could kiss you if I wasn't stright. I love your style, never gets old. And it's improveing all the time. The blending, the movement, the advanced view of the human body in motion, even the horse frame in motion it's spectacular. Make more of this please.
Style: So good it just has to be fattening. Your style of animation and plotline are just wonderful. Within fifteen minutes you got me to care for the hero, to cheer when he victored, and to cry when he fell. The hero cycle at it's best. I thought at several points you were going to give us a cliffhanger and continue in another spot but nope! Good to see you still got it.
Sound: Heres your downfall with me. The music, A+ but the voices and sound effects... the begining just didn't do it for me. I mean the point where he's walking through the woods you want to instill a point of silent divine. A lone warrior, full of keen sences and cat-like reflexes. The shifting sound and turning sounds are too bold, bland, meant for something else. Invest more time in finding better sound effects.
Violence: Excelent work with the blood, swords, just the everything. I was especialy impressed with your new use of propper wounds. In the ending scenes where you get a full view of how sevire the hero's wound is was well done. My only tick is the king. When he dies it should be a big stab scene, the evil is gone, in his last breath he thanks the hero THEN falls. But great.
Interactivity: Closest to ten I've ever given without pause, ff, and rw. The loading menu in the start was just breathtakeing. I know it must have taken a long time. Wonderful.
Humor: N/A, but 5 cause I like ya so much.
Overall the best piece of non-series or volumed flash in a very long time. Keep it up!
