Finally finished!!

I couldn't help but compare the game to Cythera. I thought Garendall had the best graphics by far, but Cythera had better game play in some ways. Players actually needed food in Cythera, in Garendall it was completely unecessary and a nuisance.
I wished for a map of the kingdom which included me (!)...it was really hard in Garendall to tell where in the world you were. The Cythera map which showed everywhere a player had been was a good idea.
In Cythera, the player acquired skills and then advanced. In Garendall the quests seemed haphazard, almost orderless, with an "oh yeah" or two added at the end. Besides that, I thought it was great.
