OVER NINE THOUSAND

Recently I have seen a lot of discussion about limit breaks, and after talking with Karsu about them today (or was it yesterday?) I've decided that I would like to know how you guys/females (wut) feel about them.

Limit breaks/overdrives/power gauges/force points/superior actions/orgasms, guys, not females. How you feel about SUPER CONDITIONAL ATTACKS not breasts (MOG, I'm looking at you).



Personally, I like them as long as they are triggered often (FF7, not FF10). In the case of them not have a bar filling up but being usable based on player decisions (FFX-2's character-unique dress spheres required you to access every dress on a grid in one battle; FF12 required you to be like HEY I HATE MY MP LET'S WASTE IT), it should be not-easy but not-hard/strange. Being low on health is fine (FF6, Three the Hard Way). Randomly giving up turns for little benefit is not (Xenosaga 2, arguably).

Also I really really really enjoyed overdrive in Tales of the Abyss. It was slow at first (you don't even unlock it until L15 or something) but MAN it's fun to see Anise go nuts (YOU BASTARD!).


How do you feel about SUPER CONDITIONAL ATTACKS go go go

Why (God Why) so many medieval fantasy games and so little of anything else?

I'm pretty sure that they're not rips. I remember Neophyte or somebody else who frequents foreign forums mentioning something about Japanese not liking rips because of the honor of making graphics, etc.

I was going to bring up under-aged Olympians as a clever retort but then I realized that those were Chinese.

Ridiculous projects ideas you've had in the past/present.

Six-seven dungeons does not a small game make. ;_;

Like, you've got EVIL EMPEROR REBELLION and USE OF MAGIC and I honestly can't think of anything else right now.

So how about dem Star Wars.

I can't even remember 5 indie/RM games that came out this year though(fantasy or not). :(

This is funny because I have made at least two of these games.

post your picture

jcavonpark is reasonably attractive.


Him has a nose (six and a half months!!!!!!!)

Roseskye: No, you are a fat black chick.

dragonheartman: I thought you were gay? Also cut your hair.

Grand Theft Release Something! IV: Guns of the Patriots [Sept 22nd]

All of the programming is done except for enemies.



I should probably get on that.

FFX-2 ROCKS SO SHUT UP


Also, Worldsong. It was about snakes raping a half-elf or something

I like "vanilla" fantasy because you can add anything to vanilla. My personal favorite/my general style is to just make everything dark. Even my silly games (Epic Monster Dungeon Explore 2, Versus Xerza, DRESS/Forget-me-nots)* tend to have dark undertones and screentints. The never-ever-completed-ever Arcane Mist is, like, super-twisted fantasy.

To me, "medieval fantasy" is an excuse to have powerful mages, hunky swordsmen, ferocious dragons, legions of vicious goblins... in essence, an excellent way to be a superhero. I find fantasy heroes to be much more attractive and fun to play as/pretend to be than Spiderman/Batman/____man. This is probably why I like the Legacies of Dondoran series so much; it's dark, bloody and heroic. I like bippidy-boppity jRPGs as much as the next forum-goer, but when I make games I try to ease out of that happy-go-lucky feeling. You're fighting for your life, so act like it!

Also, Etrian Odyssey 1 & 2 are neat because they are A)difficult and B)dark fantasy. This is good.


Roseskye: I read all of Shadowtext's post but about 1/5 of yours.


*These games are all complete and you should play them
