I was actually thinking about that. I probably will now that someone has mentioned it ^_^

Keep an eye on the thread I might put one of S.L.A.D.E soonish :P

I always thought S.L.A.D.E. looked fun.  Honestly, Dwarven Hive just isn't that ready yet - although I do have a new update for it soon.

8/10 on originality? I take it that's a typo with the explanation provided.

It's a fair overall note, don't worry about that. If I don't post much in my threads, it is usually because I want to avoid double-posting or there don't seem to be questions that need to be answered. I suppose I need to make more posts on development things, otherwise the threads might be buried in a vicious circle of the "there's no questions, no need to post - there's no posts, no point to ask questions" type.

The Zelda mod is probably more interesting for adventure mode players than for fortress mode players at this point, and in the next version, but I'm sure there are more interesting things coming for fortress mode as well.

Actually it isnt a typo, the explanation might not be the greatest. I was trying to say that yes it isnt the only mod made after a game, however there are only I few that I know of that have been made, 4 to be precise, and a few in production. So it isnt completely original but it is kinda unique considering out of 14 mods I am doing atm only 4 are based off of games ^_^.

And Zelda is one of the more popular games, am pretty sure it must be hard to keep the audience satisfied since it's so popular :P

Your review should mention how many forts you have spent with the mod for the review and what's the largest and/or longest fort you have got with it. In an example, you probably wont see anything interesting with the fortress defense mod if you only play it for a year. It'd also be nice if you also write some lines about what features you think should be included in the mod. And I might be going ahead of myself here, but review my mod some day. Not cause it's my mod; I just wanna see a review starting with "This mod adds nothing to the game!!"

I don't get how Monster Hunter Universe got a 5/10 in originality then.

The reviews are super cool and all, but there should be a greater level of consistency.

I understand that ultimately, it's your opinion in the end, but stronger consistency makes it much easier to get a feel for the mod from the reviews.
