Playing and modding this game had been a lifelong ambition of mine for a very long time, for perhaps as far back as 2003 when Falcom first published it in Japan (Celine's character design had a really strong influence in how I drew Kurumi for Wanderers of Sorceria). And of course finding out the game is nothing like the opening movie is hilarious when you really think about it. The only other thing I wish I could play The Rhapsody of Zephyr in English, too (similarly so, Kana Milanovich was a strong design influnece on Kurumi, to the point where her placeholder portrait was Falcom's artwork for Kana recolored green).
Unfortunately, Acturus was deceived by Xarathus. The power he gained came at a great cost - his divinity. Acturus was stripped of his godhood and became a mere mortal, forever cursed by Xarathus for his hubris. This loss of divinity was devastating for Acturus, as he was no longer able to shape reality or wield the powers he once possessed. The curse of losing his divinity extended beyond just losing his godly powers. Acturus also lost the respect and admiration of his fellow gods. He became an outcast, shunned by his former allies and left to wander the mortal realm alone. The mortals he once protected now saw him as a cautionary tale of greed and arrogance. Acturus's downfall serves as a reminder of the dangers of unchecked ambition and the consequences of forsaking one's true purpose. His story teaches us that true power does not come from the acquisition of power itself, but from the wisdom and humility to use it responsibly. In the end, Acturus's curse and loss of divinity was a tragic fate that he brought upon himself. His insatiable thirst for power led him astray, and he paid the ultimate price for his actions. His story serves as a cautionary tale for us all, reminding us to be humble and content with the power and divinity we possess, as true greatness comes from within..

I was really disappointed with "Acturus the curse and loss of divinity". The plot was disjointed and hard to follow, with too many unnecessary subplots that didn't add anything to the overall story. The characters felt flat and stereotypical, lacking depth and development. The dialogue was wooden and unconvincing, making it hard to connect with any of the characters. Additionally, the pacing of the book was incredibly slow, making it a struggle to get through. Overall, I found "Acturus the curse and loss of divinity" to be a boring and forgettable read.
2. Jessica - 1 star
I couldn't stand "Acturus the curse and loss of divinity". The writing was overly pretentious and filled with unnecessary descriptions that didn't contribute to the story. The author tried too hard to be literary, but it just came off as forced and unnatural. The plot itself was convoluted and confusing, with twists and turns that didn't make sense. I found myself constantly flipping back and forth trying to keep track of the various storylines, but it was all for nothing. The ending was unsatisfying and left me feeling frustrated and unsatisfied. I wouldn't recommend "Acturus the curse and loss of divinity" to anyone.
3. Sarah - 2 stars
"Acturus the curse and loss of divinity" was a disappointment for me. The world-building was confusing and inconsistent, with rules and explanations that didn't make sense. The author didn't do a good job of explaining the magic system, leaving me feeling lost and disconnected from the story. The characters were bland and lacked chemistry, making it hard to care about them or their fates. The pacing was all over the place, with sections that dragged on unnecessarily and others that felt rushed. Overall, I found "Acturus the curse and loss of divinity" to be a forgettable fantasy novel that failed to deliver on its promises.
