What annoys you in a game?

Eh, not a big fan of merely renaming stuff. (as mentioned in my above post, renaming "Dark" and "Holy" elements MEAN and NICE.)

I think if you want to assign your own name to stuff, that's fine, but it shouldn't be because you want to show that "LOOK I DONT HAVE POTIONS, PHOENIX DOWNS, AND EXCALIBURS IN MY GAME THEREFORE IM SO COOL. Instead of I restorative quaffs, flamingo feathers, and Envelope opener swords that do the exact same thing."

I think a dramatic mechanical difference is required before renaming stuff. There is an unwritten RPG language that helps people identify what stuff does. Potions heal. Tents do what tents do. Etc.
Huh? I'd rather have creatively-named items with generic functions than items taken right out of Final Fantasy.

Fallout 3: ESCAPE FROM DC.

No, fuck that:

My Life: Escape From Fallout 3.
I returned it to Blockbuster a few days ago and I'm going through withdrawals. Ah well, at least I'm getting more work done, both on my game and schoolwork.
Also, new avatar.

New blood?

Here's a suggestion:

We need more goddamn RMVX scripts and we need them organized into a convenient and easily accessible goddamn database. The lack of these things ANYWHERE ON THE INTERNET is really pissing me off.
Agreed. It's incredibly hard to find something that fits your ideas out there. I've thought about taking up RGSS2 myself, but it'd be the very first programming language I'd learn. Is it worth it?

That is one seriously sexy title screen.
Also, I've reworked the first dungeon about halfway so the mapping doesn't suck. I'll post some screens when I'm not on a school computer.

Those are some badass battle graphics, especially Baron, but they're god damn enormous. The screen looks really cluttered.

Toast pots and roast tots and all that.

Hooker is the best class ever.

I have to say, I hate those forests/mountains. Use autotiles or have separate tiles that can be linked together. A bunch of identical mountains in a perfect square pattern looks terrible.

Simple, Good or Bad

Simple, if done well, can be really really good.
Case in point: Mage Duel.

The one that was supposed to be up today. The official one, not Code Monkeys.
