What Videogames Are You Playing Right Now?

Ar Tonelico 3: Gibberish Subtitle

No excuses, this game is a lesson in terrible game design. Not only that, but its plot is a huge, discombobulated mess. It is, by all objective standards, garbage.

And I love it.

Favorite videogame world.

May or may not've begun redoing the Speak No Evil OST in FL Studio....

You should at least remake the boss theme (The Silenced Ones, I think it was called). It was totally badass.

So I started playing this yesterday. Normally I wouldn't post if I didn't have anything constructive to add, but I just thought I'd drop in to say that this is potentially one of the most demented RPG Maker games I've ever played. Maybe not the best, but definitely one of the most unique, and one that gets more juice from the RPG Maker 2000 engine than I've seen higher iterations pull from theirs.

Considering that somebody mentioned The Observer in calunio's review, would you be interested in translating that one too? Or would it be too much work, or would you rather expend your efforts elsewhere? No pressure, but calunio's brief comment about how weird The Observer supposedly is makes me kind of intrigued.

The Observer reeks of first game-ness (it's technically not my first game, just the first one whose existence I'm willing to acknowledge). If I actually attempted to translate it I can see myself rewriting most of the script in an attempt to cover up what I now perceive as glaring flaws. That's not to say I won't ever translate it, but I'd prefer to focus on turning Doble Filo into something half-decent for the time being.

Edit: Also, it's not really "weird", at least compared to the likes of Dhux's Scar.

Dhux's Scar Review

Oh boy, this review only further convinces me that I have to take down Doble Filo's demo down before some poor sap downloads it expecting something with even one fraction of Dhux's Scar's uh, "uniqueness", only to be hit in the face with the most awkward mashup of animuRPG stereotypes ever conceived (not that Dhux's Scar isn't an egregious example of this itself, but I guess it at least does some things right!)

But I digress. Thank you very much for this fantastic review, yamata no orochi!

oh and out of curiosity, about how long is the game + how much leniency is there with PE for getting the good ending?

The game is around 6-7 hours long, I think. Also:

author=Erilex
The minimum required for the good ending is 26. It is possible to obtain an item that restores 15 PE, however, so taking that into consideration, the bare minimum would be 11.

(both the location of the item mentioned above and the "key" to obtain it will be provided after -if- you get the bad ending, so don't worry about missing it)

edit:
also this game managed to use the word "fuck" without sounding awkward so BIG UPS ERILEX

ACHIEVEMENT UNLOCKED: Master of Profanity

In all seriousness, though, I'll probably avoid cussing in any games I make in the future. You don't get lucky more than once!

How about Translationg Megaman Battle Network 4.5 Real Operation with RPG MAKER?
Thats a horrible idea.
How so?

Remaking an entire commercial game with RPG Maker just for the sake of translating it? Gee, I don't know. How does that sound even remotely like a good idea to you? It would be far simpler to just translate the actual game, but that would be beyond the scope of this topic, so...
