Talk:Protostar: War on the Frontier

Notes on my edit:

Here's some notes on my rewrite of the article that seem sufficiently important to bring to the attention of other editors.

• The infobox previously listed Joe Ybarra as designer. However, the game manual assigns that position to Vas Nokhoudian and makes no mention of Ybarra at all. So I changed the infobox accordingly.

• I rewrote the part about the game being an "unofficial sequel" to the Starflight series. Although its original design intended it to be a true sequel, Tsunami had to remove all the Starflight stuff, so it's really not a sequel anymore, official or unofficial, because it doesn't present a continuity of Starflight's game world or plot. "Unofficial sequel" would be better applied to recent fan-made Starflight games promoted at various places on the Web like Starflight: The Lost Colony. However, I did emphasize the similarities between the games in the lead section.

• I deleted the "Races" subsection because it is (1) unreferenced, (2) likely WP:OR (based on someone's playing experience) and (3) possibly overly detailed. Besides, I was able to cover some of that ground in the rewritten Plot section.

• Unfortunately, the only WP:RS with game reviews I could locate was Computer Gaming World. Although it was a respected publication in its day, it would be nice to add material from other WP:RS game reviews too. Hence the "may not include all significant viewpoints" template. Feel to remove it once coverage from additional reliable source reviews has been included. (If anyone feels inclined, Video Games & Computer Entertainment or Computer Game Review from around mid-1993 or so may have published reviews of the game.) --Mike Agricola (talk) 00:49, 18 November 2012 (UTC)
