Iron Gaia: Virus Review

I'm pretty sure that Kumada's actually right on this one, gents. Have to wait on word of god for that though.

Mephistos comet :)

Also, Oto, I kind of want to start that band now.

Codename: Never Go Straight

Dude Kumada I almost got trampled during No World for Tomorrow, so I read you like yesterday's headlines.

I can kind of see what you're saying too. I'd rather power on through and finish these pictures than screw around with changing the lineart though.

P.S. this is my least favorite of the pictures. I have no idea why Max decided to use this one as the main image for his gamepage.

@ Liberty: Thanks! I really appreciate the feedback. I agree re: the axe. It was a last minute addition that Max asked for so it just kind of got thrown on there :(

@ Everyone else: his thumb exists but it isn't shown because it is behind his back and for added measure under his cloak. You know, like you do when you put your hand on your hip. And you're wearing a cloak.

I'll do it at some point.

That point is not today.

GET CRAFTING!

If I may, to respond, sorry again I'm not Max:

The short game is "you are a bum who owes taxes, time to make some money," but the short game is only supposed to take 1-2 hours to play through entirely.

If Max put the kinds of quests you are talking about in the normal and epic modes of the games, I think it would be really cute. But then again, I like those kinds of shenanigans.

"Also what about the Axe I picked up? Why can't I use it to split skulls as well as wood? :<"

You can. I just prefer the quarterstaff for defense AND attack in one piece of equipment, plus it hits twice.


I actually never made that. I am an awesome playtester :P.

Fun fact: After the first few playthroughs, I never made weapons in the early days of the game. I found that the axe and later the pickaxe worked fine for my purposes.

(I guess I'm supposed to be JOURNEYING! since I am a Journeyman? or something)


"A journeyman or journeylady is someone who completed an apprenticeship and was fully educated in a trade or craft, but not yet a master." -Wikipedia

Feel free to let Max McGee respond to his own game's criticism though.


I'm sure it would stoke Max's ego to say that he's the only one allowed to have opinions on things, but I don't tend to buy into that philosophy :P

Anyway, I don't really see what's wrong with the menus - how would you change it, visually? - but I agree that the "press z" button minigame graphic must go. Good thing Max said before somewhere on one of these screens that it's going to be replaced.

GET CRAFTING!

Monster repellent. Leave town. Not so hard to figure out what to do.

Also - make a sword and armor out of the firewood and cotton you collected? The woodworking shop and the clothier are right in town... I'm kind of surprised that you didn't notice that if you went into every building.

Pet Peeves, turn offs, and other things that piss you off.

ideally cut back on the slurping and smacking as well
General peeves in terms of women- ponytails. Not the style itself, just the sheer OVERABUNDANCE of them. Wearing your hair down is sexy ladies, let that be a lesson to you.

</whining>

Not sexy when it's raining and your hair has decided that it wants you to cosplay as Hermione from Harry Potter, and no amount of product or flat ironing is going to make it any better.

Not sexy in summertime when it's getting all tangled up in your necklaces and sticking to your skin because it's too damn humid and hot and you just showered like two hours ago but you still feel like the grossest person alive.

Not sexy when you're making out and it gets into your mouth.

In fact, there are times I feel like I'm physically drowning in my own hair and a ponytail is the only thing that makes the pain go away : (. At least I don't have to wait long to see my stylist, it'll be nice to have shorter hair again.

It is hard to be a girl. Boys make fun of girls for being vain and shallow about their hair, but then turn around and say stuff like "why don't you wear it down and look sexy?" Bah.

Edit: My pet peeve is my stupid hair. :P
