WAYS TO IMPROVE THE COMMUNITY/MAINTAIN ITS AWESOMENESS.

Posts

In my later stuff, I started making the normal equipment boast speed (not including accessories, of course). That my was attempt to remedy the situation. I'd like to think I succeed...but of course I'm in no position to answer that objectively. =P

3. Don't hate. Nobody likes haters.

Thank you Tony Hawk.


I agree with the rest of your post though, but I think its too fashionable to hate on gaems these days anywhere. As long as you're providing constructive criticism, your words aren't empty when responding to games.


See, that's the thing. Disliking/hating a game is one thing, and you're right; providiging constructive criticism is absolutely warranted and helpful. Being a hater, on the other hand...

I actually had an idea to preserve the compatibility with people designing around the 2k3 agility. What would happen is that the global battle time would be normal for a short second (so the player can take in what happened) and then speed up to the next action by some battler. If you've played Grandia before you'd notice everyone on the ATB zooms up until the next thing happens.

So it's just glorified CTB. (If multiple actions go off at the same time, then it'd be different, but...)
Guys, that was my subtle hint to stop talking about RM2k3's agility and get back on topic.

I'll be less subtle this time: stop talking about RM2k3's agility and get back on topic.

Sorry to repeat myself, but it'll help you remember.

EDIT: Contests can be fun, challenging and ultimately very motivating for competitive people (like me).
Yeah, contests are awesome. I'm not a very contest-esque person myself (I'm more of a consumer in that regard), but I love seeing them.

Also, don't make butt games. There are more than enough discussion topics on gameplay, game design, game distribution, etc etc for an astute person to read and put all of that together and be able to creatively and competently make a good game. Don't make butt games.
What's a butt game?
i don't know what everyone is going on about. I don't see annything bad about this site.

An ass game.

DISCOURSE.
The "Us Vs. You" mentality that seems to run rampant in most RM communities is particularly detrimental, especially when it comes to gameplay and design philosophies. Some people act way too full of themselves, thinking their design philosophy is the only one that is worthwhile.

It's not. There are plenty of options available to everybody here. I don't think any of them are inherently bad or good, it just depends on implementation and execution.

What constitutes as "fun" or "an experience" varies from person to person. You will not please everybody. Finding the audience for your game and then building upon that is something all developers - amateur or professional - do. We should be nurturing these differences in every developer, not tearing 'em asunder just because they don't fall in line with what we think is standard.

Voicing your opinion on how such designs can be improved and sharing it is very much to the benefit of the community, but insulting someone who takes a different approach is not.
