The site owner spouts white supremacist garbage and the mods react to my concerns by laughing at me. I'm not going to put up with a toxic community like this anymore.

Has anyone noticed how barebones the database is this time? VX Ace and before all had enough things in the database to make a practice game out of them, without having to do anything in the database. Right now, we only have 4 actors, 4 classes, 10 skills, 4 Weapons, 4 Armors, 4 Enemies and 4 Troops. The weapons and armor pieces are all identical and the enemies differ only by their amount of HP. Even the classes only differ by what skills they learn.
[General Design] What is the worst implemented/thought out system you've encountered?
author=LockeZauthor=SatedProbably either the way you control your stats or the way followers work, though if you asked me while I was in the middle of playing the game, I suspect I'd say the voice acting.author=LockeZI'll bite.
Oblivion's level scaling might be the worst level scaling system I've seen, but it's not the worst gameplay feature I've seen. It's not even the worst gameplay feature in Oblivion.

The followers are hilariously stupid - you can only "equip" them by dropping weapons on the ground right before a fight starts, and they'll often accidentally hit each-other and then start fighting each-other to the death.
I fought mud crabs more fearsome than you!
Navi
Do you have a script that lets you call a specific event on the map?
If so, you could make the skill look for an event called "help" on the map. The event contains the help Clua gives you. If the event isn't found, you can have Clua have no idea what to do here.

Race and Gender in Games
I guess you're right - ambiguity doesn't really make representation a thing as the audience will usually fill the blanks with "straight" "white" and "male" where appropriate.
But I think I know why people think negatively of the word colored:
But I think the sexual orientation bit is much more tricky to handle - while bringing PoC and female characters into the game simply requires a different sprite, having someone - let's take trans as an example - who is transsexual you'll have to go out of your way to 1. confirm this character is trans and 2. give the character some background so she isn't just a token minority. I guess this could be a little easier with homosexuals - all you need is to put two characters into a setting/environment that implies them to be a couple and just have them be the same gender.

Navi
The only part where Navi really pesters you over and over against your will is in the Deku Tree - otherwise, she'll only offer talking to you after wandering on the Hyrule Field long enough or by playing Saria's Song.
As for her actual function, she actually serves two purposes with her dialogues - she's partially there to remind you of your quest and also gives you hints about enemies you fight.
As for your Clua character: Make her give you help depending on your progress in the game rather than on what map you're on (unless you want Clua to tell the player what location this is). Otherwise, the player wouldn't get correct help when backtracking for missed goodies.

MV is OUT!
If you go to system settings, specifically the point about numbering, set the decimal digit from , to . - that avoids issues with the trait bug for now.

Alterego, where did you read any criticism? I've gone out of my way to avoid critisizing any games because they lack PoCs/women/LGBT+ because there's literally nothing wrong with that.
Buying powerful Items near end-game without making the player OP
How about making the bosses bundled into groups (lets say 4 groups with 3 bosses) and beating each batch unlocks a shop? Those shops could have generic power items along with a variety of weapons and armors, possibly centered around a certain playstyle, character or class.

Although I have given a litmus test in representation, I never stated any evaluation in how well you represent a particular ethnicity. I wanted the readers themselves to decide whether this is a good thing or not.
The percentages are listed are by no means a minimum you have to fulfill - it's just a (very narrow) list of milestones to see where your game is standing at.
@SnowOwl: I actually think you're right in one thing - if you feel there's no need for a woman/PoC at a specific point, you don't have to make one.
Finally, the only reason I used 'colored' is because I wasn't aware it was offensive to some.
Since there's still some reasonable discussion going on, I'm not wanting this to be locked yet.
