VERSALIA'S PROFILE

*is lynched for poking fun at "Kill Kount"*

Sorceress Ultimecia is ekstremely disappointed in your antiks.

Doing a short game (~2hrs) to practice scripting and class systems. You're three minions defending your Overlord's castle from invaders, but there is a severe shortage of soldiers - you only have the Stylist, Gourmand, Maid, Courtier, Vixen, and Postman classes to defend your base with. You fully expect to die against the waves and waves of enemies, but fortunately for you, this is the Netherworld and you can possess a new body.

You fight until your body gives out, and then you reincarnate into a new body/new class, with a certain number of slots to equip skills from your earlier bodies' classes, until there are no more chumps left to bodysnatch. :<

The # of slots you get is dependent on how early you used the class. If Vixen is your very first class, then you'll have the bare minimum amount of Vixen Skill Slots. HOWEVER, carrying forward stat bonuses based on how long you lasted (you went for 20 waves as a Vixen, you get +20 Focus every time you reincarnate). So you have to choose the order in which you progress through the classes: Earlier classes give more stat bonuses throughout the game but give you less of their skill slots. (Fortunately you have 3 people to play with the ordering of the classes!)

Stealing from a professional and stealing from a hobbyist are two different things. Yes, theft is theft and you should try not to steal resources, but when comparing the two it's much, MUCH worse to take from someone who does their work for free, for their personal enjoyment.

But being illegal, neither should be allowed at all. That's the true double standard.

all games now require being 100% RTP and Custom graphics for approval

Why is this a laughable notion? Even if it's a difference of a greater of two evils, they're still two evils. It's truly sad how many people in this community insist that art can only be made by stealing from others. The sense of entitlement is pathetic.

I completely understand your point of view, but you know what? Not everybody has the ability to make their own custom graphics. I don't think you should just rip whatever you can find, ESPECIALLY other indie designers who did the work themselves, but I can't really fault somebody for making a 2k3 game with FF6's graphics. Am I tired of seeing it? Yes. Is Squenix realistically suffering for this "theft" in any way, shape, or form...? It's really hard for me to care. Forcing people to make ONLY RTP GAEM is not a very appealing option.

(but seriously, stealing from a paid professional vs. an unpaid volunteer is simply a matter of the greater of two evils)

I got past 3 floors without anybody dipping below 1800 HP, suck it
