Oh you don't need to submit an actual DEMO to the site. The site keeps track of games in progress.

So do I talk to you about submitting the game?

Well I don't think we need to really start a battle, Rose! It's pretty futile to try and make someone change their mind. You have to show them a way to change it themselves.

Didnt I just say that.. and since when did I say I was trying to make you change your mind? Just not to diss XP.

You dont have to abandon your pirated 2k, but you dont have to go on a personal crusade and say that 2k is better because its been out longer.

Quoted myself for justice.

This is hopeless.. use whatever you want.

Its like a battle between Jehova's Witnesses and Christians...

Better yet Jews vs. Christian. Similar beliefs with a few variances.

You guys dont get me.. its like everytime I try to make a point someone puts words in my mouth.

I said I dont mind a cliche game.. that brings something new to the table.

YET! I dont want to play a cliche game.. everytime I play a game. Someone has to break the chains. Its like, I dont mind playing a good Rm2k/3 game.. but when someone sticks with the program (illegally) just because they think its the best maker.. its basically a lost cause. That's like Nintendo staying on 16 bit because there was a fanbase back when it was a hot topic.

I go back to play the original SSB on 64 every once in awhile because it was fun.. but I in no way shape or form think that SSB is better than SSBB or SSBM. It's just they're all fun in they're own way. There is just so much I can play without just sighing and walking away from a game. I prefer playing XP games... well GOOD XP games, because it's nice to see what new things people are trying with the game maker. YET, I've seen 2k for 8 years.. Im not going to just stick with the program because its retro. . Havent you seen the VX advert? PIXEL ART IS AWESOME!


In short, too much aging an piece of bread causes it to go stale. . If you repeat the storyline in a genre too much people will lose interest. There is just so much I can take to seeing the same thing over and over again. There is a difference between being a hardcore gamer and a fanatic gamer. A hardcore gamer would play a game.. no matter what graphics it has just for a new experience. The type that'll play FFVII like it was a visual bible.. A fanatical gamer would play a game as long as its on a familiar basis. If it steers too much from the original game its no longer valid.

I was once a fanatical gamer, now Im just the opposite. It's like eating too much candy.. it gets old.

RoseSkye, I think you're forgetting that we are controlling little sprites on a screen with numbers that decide every facet of their existence.

Who cares if a kid can wear plate mail and carry a sword larger than his body? In fantastic media we are expected to suspend our disbelief when something unusual happens.

Also, as a side note, the average gear of modern day American infantry is heavier than the heaviest of medieval cavalier knights. And they run a lot.

Not once have I said that we're living a real life in GAME.. using the QUALIFIER 'GAME' should of ended the assumption. Yet, I've implied that game makers in general should try harder to captivate their players with a beautiful story. Not just some weeaboo cliche piece of steamed regurgitated recycled filth. Here Final Fantasy: XZY Its a fangame about a spikey haired hero that fights an evil villian and saves the world.. different weapons this time. I did not mind kingdom hearts, disney characters were something I havent seen together in a rpg game before. In fact I was hooked after CoM.
