[Critique] My Game's Story...so far.
Thank you all for the input. I will try to come up with a new name, and title name now too.
I think I might keep the ring as, well, a ring. I like the idea that you have to wear it, and the fact that it is a simple ring that causes such great power. At first I was thinking of changing it to a stone, but then where would the stone go? The idea that this powerful thing can be seen, but not quite understood is important. I also thought of changing it to a creature that would kind of posses someone, but I think I will stick to the ring.
@LWG: Yes, this is true, and a great reminder. My main concern is pacing, because I tend to throw in a ton of sidequests, so I am wondering how the average gamer will react.
Thanks to everyone who helped!

Creativity: Thinking about "Experience/Leveling Systems"
You could give stat points or a whole level for completing different missions, or sidequests. And the harder the mission, the bigger the EXP.

Thanks Max for your input. And yeah, I understand how painful it can be to read a huge thread.
I really don't think it will come across as being like LotR in gameplay and storytelling, I'm wondering if I hadn't even said anything of a ring, maybe a necklace or a stone causing all of this, if you would have thought Tolkein? As for the evil Empire, I too have grown sick of this, so the main conflict will not come from the empire itself, but more so the journey and twists that the main character goes to find his sister, and how he changes because of what happens. (This is my hope at least) I will consider coming up with a new name, but for now (essence with an L) stays haha. =D
But your input has given me some more motives to stray away from the cliche. Thank you good sir.

I have started my old game idea from scratch in the past few days. I am mostly just mapping and figuring out the main plot at the moment. Any critiques and suggestions would be awesome!
Lessents Story
The main plot of Lessents Story revolves around a ring of great power (and a hobbit...just kidding). Whoever wears this ring is granted their deepest dream to be a reality. The act of putting on this ring not only grants you your dream, but also bonds the wearer and the ring together: for as long as the wearer is alive, the ring's pact can't be broken. More mystery could possibly surround the ring.
To summarize, many years ago the last person to hold the ring threw it up from a floating isle, after it cost him his life, and everyone he ever loved. The ring landed in the ocean and eventully found its way to a cave. The game starts out in a normal town, with a normal young man, Lessents. Basicly, Lessents' sister goes missing after she discovers the ring, and decides to put it on, not knowing that it would grant her the dream to be the Princess. Lessents goes on a journey to find his sister, and finds that an Empire has been searching for the ring for years. Upon his Sister's new identity and pact with the ring, the original Princess is on a journey to discover what has happened to herself, and why nobody recogonizes her. Destiny will have it that Lessents and the real Princess join together, along with many other companions to discover the secrets of the ring.
I don't want to give too much away, but I was wondering if this sounded interesting or original at all. I have many interesting twists and turns planned.

RMN Snews - Issue #16
Just wanted to share my support in your efforts! Thank you for making a great site and keeping it updated. No matter how small a community is, there is always room for growth and dedication.
What are you working on now?
Thank you for the quick advice. I fixed the fence, and the plants. As for variety, the town is going to be much larger up top, so hopefully I can add some fun parts to it.
And someone should petition a screenshot topic, was wondering why none was made...

Help - Can't find cloud overlay...
I found a video displaying the exact overlay I am talking about.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GaYswrcg7s0&feature=related
It is the simple clouds shown towards the end.

Help - Can't find cloud overlay...
Hmmm, I will check that out. The one that came with 2k3 is not what I am looking for though. This one is more singular clouds floating by. Thank you though.
Help - Can't find cloud overlay...
I have been on a journey for the past hour looking for a simple cloud overlay that I use to have. When used right, the shadow of a few clouds would slowly float on top of everything. I can't for the life of me find this! Any help/direction would be much appreciated.
