As for the dual techniques, it'll be pointless to call me out on it. There were dual spells in FF4 & FF9 as well.

Oh yeah…I forgot about that! I guess that it’s more of a Square-Enix thing, then.

I know that ROS is the face of Lufia, but to be honest Lufia FOD is where my heart is. I'm more inspired by it. It is THE RPG game that got me to take RPG games more seriously. We go way back LOL

Really, Lufia 1 is your favorite, then? Wow.

Then again, I get the same type of reaction when I say that Final Fantasy IV is my favorite game in the Final Fantasy series, but that’s mainly because it was the game that got me into RPG’s back then, so I can kinda relate to you in the same way that you prefer Lufia 1 over Lufia 2.

I appreciate that you're excited about the game, it encourages me to keep it going.

Oh yeah, any time that I see a Lufia fangame in the works - I’m definitely excited for it! It’s better than what Square-Enix gives us nowadays when it comes to the Lufia series, lol.

NHL 2021 Stanley Cup Playoffs / Pool Prediction Thread ~ Kentona's Redemption ~

Keep in mind that Kentona was absolutely SENSATIONAL in the First Round, going 6-2 with 4 of those picks being perfect, and then he proceeded to go 0-6 in the Second Round and Conference Finals - combined - with him needing Tampa Bay to win in 5 Games, in the Finals, in order to have any chance at all of tying me for first place in the end - and he actually managed to squeak it out JUST barely! A prediction that I managed to make at some point, during the pool, that actually came true!

But, still, a win’s a win no matter how much you manage to slice it. And Kentona definitely deserved to get something out of it in the end, and I’m glad that he did!

And, yeah, now that NHL Playoffs will be returning back to its original format and starting in the Spring again – I’ll definitely let all of you guys know in advance on here and on Discord before it starts up again for next year, alright? It would be nice to have some more participants for next year other than just the four of us, even if some of those participants just guess blindly.

(Although...that did work quite well for Kory that one year when he actually did that, lol.)

OBSCURE HALF FOUR THING RESPONSE COLLECTIVE

As for the background, it's just an experiment, I don't intend on using it. I just wanted to see how it would look if it was re-colored.

Really? That’s a shame, I really like the background.

And are you sure about doing animated monsters? I know that Lufia: The Ruins Of Lore had animated sprites for the party members and such, but not so much for the monsters, as they just sort of shuffled back and forth in place. It just seems like a lot of unnecessary work to do, especially if you’re trying to capture the more Lufia 2 type of style and feel to it. But, it’s up to you.

And as for duel techniques, although it would be pretty interesting to see how the Lufia series would handle something like that in addition to IP attacks, the only downside to it is that a lot of players might compare the mechanic to Chrono Trigger and think of it as strictly a Chrono Trigger like thing, so they might call you out on it.

Either way, whatever direction you decide to go, I can't wait to see more!

What Videogames Are You Playing Right Now?

What’s with all these spam bots posting in this thread lately, anyway? It’s weird.

I mean…spam bots, we do have over one million different topics to post in. Why constantly choose this one?

Happy bday Kentona!

So the same day that you became champion in the pool (well…co-champion) is the same day as your birthday??? Ha. What are the odds.

Since you’re getting pretty old now – you’re going to need this:





(It was either this or a box of prunes.)

NHL 2021 Stanley Cup Playoffs / Pool Prediction Thread ~ Kentona's Redemption ~

Oh yeah, definitely for sure. It’s a shame that we didn’t get more of a larger turnout this year, and even last year was pretty miserable as well.

I think what I’m gonna try to do next year is try to make an announcement, or try to promote it on our Discord Channel and see if anybody there (including newcomers) would be willing to come back to the forums in order participate for next year’s pool, since a lot of forums users that used to be here have moved on to that. I would also like to make an announcement on our social media page about it too, and what not, but I don’t use Twitter, Facebook – or whatever the hell the kids are using nowadays. I mean, that could always change in the future if I somehow manage to get into the social media game like everybody else has, but, from where it stands right now - that’s probably not going to happen. (But you never know, though.)

- We’ll see how it goes for next year. I’m hoping that now that everything is going back to normal with the regular divisions again, and having the playoffs actually start on time properly instead of late into the summer, that maybe more people will participate next year when things FINALLY go back to normal again.

Playoff Update:





The Montreal Canadiens magical storybook run has officially come to an end, as the Tampa Bay Lightning manage to win their second straight Stanley Cup (their third in franchise history) as they win it on home ice in front a packed house in 5 Games. Lighting goaltender, Andrei Vasilevskiy, manages to pick up the Conn Smythe Trophy for playoff MVP: the first goaltender to win the award since Jonathon Quick in 2012 for the Los Angeles Kings!

Kentona was the only one who managed to pick the Lightning in this one and picks himself up 2 Points - which then doubles to 4 Points total because he also got the correct number of games right as well. Kory_Toombs also picks up A Single Point for predicting that the series would go five.

And with that - we have one winner and one loser to announce:



First off, Congratulations, UPRC! Thanks to Kory_Toombs’ single point at the end, you managed to finish in dead last and earned yourself the Ashamed Fan Award! Which is odd, because, from this person's perspective - you have nothing to be ashamed OF, including your favorite team - as it was all just a matter of numbers...



And at long last - the redemption of Kentona has FINALLY come to fruition as it took him until the final hour for him to finally break the curse and win himself a share of the Connor McDavid Award! (- Bout time!)



Both you and Addit will have your names engraved on this year’s championship banner, as, for the first time ever in RMN Stanley Cup Playoff Pool / Prediction History - we have more than one winner this year! So both of you will share the honor!

And thus concludes the NHL 2021 Stanley Cup Playoffs!
See you next year!
