>>58472205I played Saiph.
It wasn't bad, buuuuuuuuuuuut It was also a buggy mess. There are sections of the town map that flat out don't exist, I even tried to walk though walls and only found half made areas that were clearly abandoned for the final game. The sprites also like to freak out from time to time. (the glitch in the party menu is caused by just trying to use an HM), and there are some weird ass bugs like in one of the routes, you can fish on a tile of the road and encounter wild pokmon 5 to 10 levels higher than you should (great for grinding).
Still I did have fun? I dunno, I would recommend it over Dreamstone, Dark Rising, and Sky Twilight for what that's worth.
