What Videogames Are You Playing Right Now?

After not playing Dark Souls in a long time I decided to pick it up again today (I got my younger brother into Dark Souls and him giving me his blow by blow commentary of how he is doing made me want to pick it up again). And given I'm a little rusty it was remiss of me to go up against Manus.

I've shelved Final Fantasy Tactics for a while. Even though I'm on chapter 4 and determined to finish the damn game. I'm just not having that much fun with it. The battle at the Golgollada Gallows, and the the first, and last battle at Riovanes Castle is three bullshit fights to many. I basically had to blind luck my way through the fight on the roof against totally-not-sephiroth and his two one-shotters, and hope that Rapha didn't walk up to the assassins cementing my defeat.

And while we're on the subject of Tactics games. I've been eyeing up Tactics Ogre on PSP. Is it worth me getting it if I'm not having much fun with FFT?

I'm liking your suggestion about the new skill. However the new skill text is animated and scrolls through a bunch of colours like the limit break text from FF7, but scrolling through 2 or 3 colours instead might be a little easier on the eyes.

As for the menu background I'm not sure what I can do apart from mute the colours a little bit, which is easy enough to do.

Been working on some custom systems for a short project I'm working on using pictures.

You buy skills using AP you gain from battles.


A custom status screen to show how much AP you have. Plus I wanted to use weapon and armour icons.


Each character only has one weapon that they upgrade at the Blacksmith.

I want more Steel Spirit SaGa :P

I will get back to work on that eventually. As for my dilemma. I decided to get the nitty gritty eventing out of the way first. Eventually I intend to share a few screenshots of what I've been working on, but there just isn't anything concrete at the moment.

What are you thinking about? (game development edition)

Currently at a point in my game where I'm torn between working on various systems in my game, or working on the story and mapping and going to the systems later. And I'm not sure which I should do.

That's awesome. Were you going for a Tsutomu Nihei kind of look?

[Poll] How do you pronounce Lucavi?

Funny I stumble across this as I'm playing War of the Lions. In my head I pronounce it loo-cah-vee. And while we're on the subject of FFT. I'd like to rant about how I had to practically blind luck my way through the fight on the Riovanes Castle roof because Rapha, having all the self preservation skills of a rich tea biscuit near a cup of tea, kept moving towards the two assassins instead of away. Even with the naked run strategy, one assassin would cast ultima on them, while the other would TKO Rapha. And totally-not-sephiroth kept first striking everyone.

Hey, I have some offensive things to say.

Is there someone else apart from me that didn't like It Follows?

[RM2K] Help with variables redux

A while ago I requested help with variables for a game I am working on. and while my problem was sort of solved, I'm ashamed to admit when it comes to maths and numbers I am really REALLY stupid. Is it possible for the solution to be explained to me in layman's terms?

EDIT:Nevermind, I've managed to sort out the problem. It was simpler than I thought it was. Sorry everyone.

What are you thinking about? (game development edition)

With the size of the RMVXA sprites you could try making your own, take an existing sprite that vaguely resembles a nurse and make a few edits. I'm sure if you post your work on here everyone will give you pointers on how to improve.
