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.

Reading about the Mary Sue in literature has made me super paranoid about the characters I write.
author=Sidewinder
Well, I watched a bit of the first episode. The main character is a 37 year old virgin who reminisces about crapping his pants in school, and begs his friend to delete his hard drive as he lies dying. I get where you're coming from, but I'm not really sure I'd consider him a 'literal perfect character'.
At least, he's nowhere near as bad as something like this.
Yeah, his character actually has to overcome challenges for one episode. Then he absorbs an omnipotent being and gains its power, and then he never makes a single mistake again for the entire series and everyone he meets pledges their allegiance to him and/or falls in love with him. He is so popular that his followers literally form a new nation, the first multi-racial nation to ever exist in the world, and name it after him. It's the most hilariously mary-sue bullshit ever.
A Deep Dive into Paper Mario's Design Philosophy
Paper Mario is a nice first RPG for preschoolers who are still learning to read. If you're making a game for a higher age group, not much about it is really worth emulating.
Its biggest fatal flaw is only having two party members at a time, one of whom is invincible. Other than that, though, it at least doesn't make many other serious mistakes that make players wince in pain, like so many other bad RPGs do. It avoids a lot of pitfalls. The game doesn't have any overpowered options that ruin the decision-making, it doesn't have systems that are misleading or confusing, it doesn't reward the player for playing in a more boring way, it doesn't trick the player into making irreversible bad decisions. It just doesn't do anything good either. There's nothing there to make it worth playing, or worth caring about.

author=SoozSomething can be incredibly common and still awful. I think this is an example of that. Give your characters some depth, otherwise they're not interesting.
You seriously want me to list every mediocre fantasy, scifi, and action book featuring a protagonist who doesn't do anything wrong, and who all the other characters love, and is also super powerful? Because there are a LOT of them. It's a really common setup. Just grab a few random books from a particular genre fiction section and you'll probably get at least one.
author=SidewinderMain character from Slime Datta Ken, to name a popular recent anime. I like the anime despite that, though, not because of it. The way magic works is interesting, and the way the setting evolves is interesting, and the political drama is interesting. Most of the characters, including the omnipotent protagonist, are boring as heck.
No, I just wanted you to name one.
Sora from Kingdom Hearts, for a more well-known example. I think video games partially get a pass, though. The main character kind of has to be super powerful by the end of the game, especially in RPGs with only one character. He's still a terrible character though. And I think his pass is revoked because Kingdom Hearts is actually fanfiction. He's literally being inserted into existing worlds and upstaging all the original protagonists.

OBSCURE TWO THING RESPONSE COLLECTIVE
Games with map/level editors
Once upon a time I tried to recreate Final Fantasy 6 in Warcraft 3.
It didn't go well. It's probably actually possible, but I had no idea what I was doing.

CSS can't be copyrighted either, you dip. Reuse of CSS and HTML is an industry-wide practice in web design. That's like accusing someone of ripping you off because they took the same directions to work as you.
The gamejolt site isn't working for me anymore
author=AnimeGirlYou're obviously wrong, since the website works for other people. And if you think nothing on your computer has changed in the last four months then you have no idea what a computer is.
It's not my fault if they change something so it doesn't work anymore and that I could find a way to contact there is not contact information to find. I didn't change anything.
The Return
I mean, names, ideas, and edits of public RTP resources are not proprietary. Anyone can use those if they want, you don't have a right to stop them. That's not how copyright works. Those aren't yours. The RTP belongs to Degica regardless of anyone's minor edits, and ideas can never belong to anyone.
