Personally, I would have gone totally original or just have done something 100% inspired by MLP's Lore over its franchise history.Īs an older gen fan I kind of appreciate that they include the Flutter Ponies who are ridiculously awesome ( here listen to them sing how awesome they are while curb stomping a freaking demon ). Not to say they shouldn't include FiM homages I imagine a number of the backers are just going to ignore a lot of the flavor text and use Equestria as their setting and retranslate the FiM elements but a lot of the FiM stuff just seems almost out of place in Everglow's setting - which is kind of a shame.

Personally it feels kind of jarring to go from this mostly original setting with a history all it's own and other races and then suddenly there is clear FiM stuff. Personally while I like a lot of the original touches like clockwork ponies and other things there is one major flaw in the flavor content - it feels too much like they are straddling the line between something original and FiM with almost transparent chraming in of FiM stuff - like the Sun Queen/Celestia, Moon Princess/Luna, Night Mare/Nightmare Moon, Princess Luminescence/Twilight, Unspoken/Discord.
