NEOPHYTE'S PROFILE

Haha, who would combine Breath of Fire chipsets with Secret of Mana!? That chipset was disgusting, the colors weren't even correct.

That new one is way better, Feld. You should post a map from your game because I know you have an inner made with that.

No, it's not solidly gender based, but if gender has anything to do with it, I can almost guarantee that my 'theory' is almost partially correct. I've never done any sort of conclusive experiment on it, but it's something I've noticed with almost every girl I've ever seen play a platformer.

Of course, this is not a bad thing! Usually it turns out that girls are better at RPGs.

Woahh I disagree with this.

The reason those females are not good at platformers is because they never played those games in the first place. I can guarantee you the exact same thing would happen with a guy if he played a game he wasn't familiar with (just like I bet most of us here suck at sports and racing games).

Also, I don't get this. I find girls to be just as good as guys in gaming. It all depends on your experience with games and how much time you invest in them. It has absolutely nothing to do with gender. Shinan and Dudesoft made some very good points. I also don't see how that picture could offend anyone when they're obviously just trying to cater to the casual female gamer. This seems to be a discussion between lifestyles and the type of person you are rather than your gender.

Definitely not. I make games as a hobby, a diversion, with the knowledge that it is something completely frivilous, and that is part of why I like it as a hobby. If I were to do it for a living, I think I'd probably go nuts knowing that I am capable of doing so much more. I have roots here at home, I plan to live here and work here, and hopefully one day be a school teacher here, and I want to be a part of and contribute to the well being of my community and the people in it, and I think that giving all that up to sit at a computer and do flowcharts and talk to computer nerds about the most efficient rendering process would be a huge disappointment for me.

I agree with this a lot.
Also I can't imagine working on something that isn't my own project. It just couldn't be something I could envision. If I weren't able to create my personal project that I make and enjoy for myself, this opportunity would just be like any other job. But that's just me.

If I wanted to list the ones I've played, I would just post a screenshot of my games folder. Otherwise the list would be too long. I am positive I'm missing some from the list above anyway.

edit: Otokonoko, if you have Dragon Destiny II can you upload that somewhere? Because I would really like to study that.

No information has been given out yet.

That being said, this is now something I am now looking forward to. I'm all for games like these getting revived again in a new sequel. And Bahamut Lagoon was awesome.
