LOCKEZ'S PROFILE
LockeZ
I'd really like to get rid of LockeZ. His play style is way too unpredictable. He's always like this too. If he ran a country, he'd just kill and imprison people at random until crime stopped.

RM2k3 - Question about pressing shift during message event
Only time I've ever played someone else's game in test mode was when it had a bug that prevented me from continuing forward. I think most people who have a copy of RPG Maker are amateur game designers, and thus generally have enough respect for game design to actually try your game and see what you've done with it. If they didn't care about checking out everything you did in the game, and seeing what works well and what didn't, they wouldn't be playing it.
Now, when someone who's not an amateur game designer plays your game, that might be a different story. But they're not going to have a copy of RPG Maker handy, nor know offhand that getting a copy would let them cheat.

DOING IT! - WEEK TWELVE - Dialogue
Yeah I don't mean any sort of part of written English grammar, I mean actual literal pauses where the game waits half a second before displaying the rest of the text. Don't do that, it's AWFUL. Especially in RM2K3 where the text shows up so slowly already.
Assistance being requested: Artwork needing help
Is this acceptable? Used the "hue/saturation" tool in Gimp to change all the colors except red to either red or orange. Wasn't able to fix the fact that it's still a fish glued to a robot, though. :)

Could anyone throw me a few city mapping pointers?

I'd assume the spots with ellipses are the ones he's talking about.
I don't mind ellipses when not overused though. Just please don't insert actual half-second pauses or anything goofy like that.

Class Separation
I try to make each character (or class) have a significantly unique style that none of the other classes come close to. If one character (or class) is just marginally faster and less powerful than another, or has different elements, or something minor like that, it usually doesn't feel like enough of a difference to me. I'd rather they have completely different styles of combat. And, if possible, different styles of learning new abilities. In my upcoming RMXP game, each character will have a different way of learning - the swordsman has SaGa style lightbulbs, the blue mage learns spells when enemies cast them, the thief steals skill scrolls from enemies, the summoner learns spells from plot events and sidequests, the mage will probably use some sort of sphere grid...
Most of the classes in Final Fantasy 5 differentiated themselves really well. Black Mages and Summoners, for example, both used offensive magic - but black mages were capable of hitting only one enemy at a time, and could use cheap magic spells when needed, giving them a lot of versatility; while summoners were much more powerful and had some defensive spells, but their spells all had very high MP costs, forcing summoners to spend a lot of their turns doing things to regain MP. And of all the classes in the game, those are probably the two that are most similar to each-other.

I wanted to do Let's Plays of some games.
If you want to make sure you don't make a fool out of yourself, start out by doing LPs of joke games.
I recommend the epically awful Chrono Trigger, mostly so it will show up on Youtube when people search for "Let's Play Chrono Trigger".

...uh, FF5? For shizzle? As in, only one tile tall? This? I just want to clarify, since that style looks abhorrent to me, with the one-tile-tallness and the pegs instead of feet.
You may have trouble finding townspeople of that type. You will probably have to rip the charsets from FF5 yourself, since I've never seen anyone use them for RM2K3 or RM2K.
