Gaming and game design are my hobbies. I've spent the most time with VX Ace and 2k3 (prior to Steam release), but the only thing I've ever finished anything with is 2k.
Psychology was my first degree, but being responsible for depressed kids was too stressful. So I got a Masters in Healthcare Management and now I'm responsible for depressed adults!

Final Fantasy 6 Remake!
I feel like SE has actually been using a modified RPG Maker engine for the 2D remakes of I-V. Everything from the font to the positioning of stats screams "slightly scripted default RM menu" to me. Just look at the health in one of the screenshots.
It says "7910/_______7910". Did somebody mess up the x-axis value? Max HP is 9999, so it's not like they're holding space for future stat growth.

Experience and Leveling Up
I like the way Mana Khemia 2 handled level ups. There were no actual "levels", but you purchased stat increases, skills, and attack effects using points earned from battle. By just battling enough, your HP and SP would go up. Equipment also provided you with generic skills and stat increases, as well as special effects. You purchased from a "Grow Book", where tiles were unlocked as you synthesized items using Alchemy. You could grind for as many points as you wanted, but you would also gain obtains necessary for synthesizing new ones, but were restricted based on which item recipes you knew. You couldn't get the best skills in the beginning of the game, but you could accumulate a lot of small stat increases. The first Mana Khemia game over-restricted you by requiring you to unlock adjacent tiles before you could continue through the Grow Book. Missed one recipe from an early dungeon? You need to go back and find it if you want to ever increase your power.
It worked really well, and Mana Khemia 2 also included a Hard Mode to make the battles more difficult and offset the stat increases.

Pokemon X and Pokemon Y - the 6th generation confirmed!
author=Sanaauthor=Ratty524Let's not forget the pokeball pokemon~author=Yellow MagicPokemon based on trash, ice cream, cotton candy, and candles exist. Why are you so surprised? :P
A KEYCHAIN Pokemon? Really?
Lol, does Fletchinder have a monocle!? *o* My team out of that list: Malamar, Slurpuff, Hawlucha, Barbaracle, Noivern, and Gourgeist. (I try not to use starters, but! Since Sycamore's giving Kanto starters, if I had to replace one it'd probably be Gourgeist for Venusaur~)
Full team of Bergmite for me. Anyway, this is looking like the Ghost-type generation. Gen V gave us the good Bug Pokemon, and now we're getting so many ghosts.
All Hallows' Event 2013
author=RachealDo it. Take the plunge. It's just three weeks. I originally thought "Hmmm. Can I actually make something worthwhile in this time? Will it interfere with that one-night Salsa lesson? I guess I'll go for it." And now I'm having so much fun. Never would have made a game like this normally.
I spent the first week hmming and haaing over whether I was willing to take a break from my current project to enter this or not. Still not 100% committed yet, but we do have an interesting idea now. Might flesh it out over the next day or two and see if it's going to lead to anything significant.
All Hallows' Event 2013
I will be making a survival horror with a dash of Halloween comedy. What can you expect from a psychology major who is also a known sociopath? Stay tuned and find out.
Pokemon X and Pokemon Y - the 6th generation confirmed!
author=Ratty524We can now have goatees in this game. Now I REALLY want to get this game!
I think that was the deciding factor for everybody on the fence about it.

@Backwards_Cowboy: Do you know how hard it is to not click on that show button... *saving throw successful, for now*
There's pictures of all three supposed final evolutions out at this point. Not even going to post the picture since it's everywhere at this point, and for your sake.

Somebody got the game early (Reports of it selling early in Canada and Italy), and is now posting images of his progress. http://instagram.com/kosthedin#
He took the images down. Supposedly did so at the request of Nintendo, judging from his "Got Nintendo'd" image.
