Noel the Mortal Fate is a game that I absolutely love but don’t rate highly as a game. Most characters are two dimensional and the characters who had lots of potential ultimately fell flat. Take the Italian/devil themes out of it and it’s still incredibly basic as a revenge story.
I’d recommend this game to people who haven’t seen as much battle anime about shounen or the power of friendship. It’s not likely, but I know fans who first saw NTMF and considered it the second coming of Christ. More power to them for enjoying it, really.

completei recentemente e ajudei na revisão pra tradução PT-BR (chequem o tumblr Tea Party Project!), e devo dizer que mexeu muito comigo em alguns pontos. a história me fez sentir como se eu estivesse jogando um anime shounen em formato de rpgmaker, teve várias músicas que eu colocaria numa baladinha, e no geral foi muito divertido. gostaria que tivesse mais reconhecimento e um anime um dia, mas são apenas sonhos. apesar de algumas falhas, ele faz muito bem o que quer fazer e o parabenizo por ele. jogão (literalmente, longo pra krl).
This is an odd little series that has inspirations from RPG maker horror/adventure games, and like... shounen? It's a strange mix, but as the series go on the series goes in an incresingly chuuni shounen direction that ends up making it a ton of fun to sit down and play through.
The gameplay is... fine? I don't think anything was ever particularly like- difficult, but the boss fights all being based on quick reactions and timing is a consistent method to keep you engaged during them. Otherwise it's a lot of walking and talking. Not a complaint, but it has that distinctly RPG maker vibe, I guess? It's charming to me, so that's what matters I suppose.
The characters and story are really the meat of things here, and they're all great. The main duo of Noel and Caron really carry the bulk of things. Hell, they're the only protagonists for the first quarter of the story. They're both great protagonists who get a ton of time to grow, and their dynamic is always fun. Once the cast started to expand I was... mixed at first, but I quickly grew to like the supporting characters. This especially goes for Fugo that guy is the best. In the second half, the cast expands even further and you really get a lot of time with the characters that matter. Ribellio in particular is awesome.
The villains are also fucking rad. Most of them aren't... redeemable, but you learn enough about them to at least understand them. I was REALLY worried we'd get a 'villain is secretly justified right at the end' moment, especially considering how many of the series' early antagonists end up in at least less villainous roles, but luckily that never happens. These dudes are evil and suck, much worse than our cast of predominantly anti-heroes. Burrows is such a funny dude to watch and definitely gives you the feeling of just loving to hate him.
Presentation-wise the sprites and stock RPG maker assets scattered about are an... acquired taste, but the CGs and character art are consistently great. Series also uses impact font and that's just so funny. The music is largely from libraries, especially early on, but the original pieces here are really standout. This series loves leitmotifs it's fuckin awesome.
All-in-all this is a very special little series, one that I'm glad has finally wrapped up and given me an ending. Certainly has some issues with regards to production most of all I think (those stock assets get pretty distracting,) but the love put into this project really trumps those problems for me. A true labor of love that took many years of work. Really fun, really chuuni, and that's all I need sometimes.

Ultimate example of the blazing passion a creator can put into what they create, the truest labor of love. No work of fiction has stirred such impossibly strong feelings within me.
It's quite fun, actually. Working hard to achieve your dreams.

I read every season of this game, each getting better and better. Never thought a RPGMaker game could go this fucking hard it's probably one of my favorite games of all time.
I love this story, I love the characters, the music, the artstyle honestly everything. Noel the Mortal Fate really rocked my world. Please, play this game. You won't regret it.

Yeah nah dis my favorite rpgmaker style game by a good margin so far lmao
FANTASTIC cast (TE AMO SLUG, FUGO, CARON, NOEL, JILLIAN, RUSSEL, TOAD, PYTHON ETC ETC ETC), great story filled with so many fun twists and turns, BANGER music, quirky gameplay that keeps you on your toes with variety and fun set pieces
Idk man just hits different, simple foundation but the immensely charming character dynamics and the amount of depth put into every single one of their journeys, just chef kiss
I also relate to Russel Burrows too much that man is literally me
NOW GIVE ME THE TL OF THE REST
