In development since 2008, [http://rpgmaker.net/users/NicoB/ NicoB's] [[Freeware Games|freeware]] [[RPG]] '''''Forever's End''''' at first appears to be nothing more than a standard [[Eastern RPG]]. Most of the story revolves around the [[Royally Screwed -Up|power-hungry]] King Richard, his [[Evil Chancellor|sinister advisor]] Marcellus, and the [[You Gotta Have Blue Hair|the blue-haired]] [[The Hero|protagonist]] Epoch. After resigning from his position as Captain of the Dragon Knights and being labeled a traitor by his countrymen, Epoch must find a way to stop King Richard from collecting the [[Power Crystal|six legendary crystals]] and ruling the world.
 
For those of you who haven't noticed, this is essentially ''[[Final Fantasy IV]]'' in a nutshell. Good news is that it plays a lot better than it sounds. After the first hour or so, the [[Role -Playing Game|RPG tropes]] begin to settle down, and ''Forever's End'' becomes more its own beast. In addition, the game offers players plenty of custom systems, plot twists, original artwork, and catchy tunes to keep any RPG fan hooked for hours.
