and whats wrong with tellin it how it is?


that's what everybody else is doing by giving you constructive criticism like "maybe you should clean up those mismatching mountains"

I also suggest that if you are just learning an RM* engine you look into VX as it is the most current and up-to-date engine with the widest variety of options available to it. If you don't know any of the RM* engines you might as well pick the most customizable one to work with. Download Yanfly Engine Melody, it has the RM2k3 battle system that actually works properly, and other things.

sorry to be the bringer of devastating news but this is just a project to get a completed game under my belt. nothing more.


that is an incredibly stupid thing to say, what good is a completed game if it is ugly and has minimal effort put into it? minimal effort is not the same thing as minimalist.

seems like you're only saying this to avoid taking criticism

Emo Require: Do RPGs need a story?

me: eh, Shadow of the Colussus
the game is 100% gameplay
you are a dude, with a horse, a sword, a bow
but I don't consider it an RPG, it is a platformer with a sword
because all story and plot is completely implied

craze: yes
I would agree with that
but replace it with strategic turn-based battle mechanics and maybe some dungeons

me: story is integral to RPGs as a whole, whether or not it has to be the primary focus
FFTA2 had a shitty story and great gameplay
it's clearly an RPG and a good one
but it's not fantastic, because its lame story holds it back

craze: okay
so what if you took the exact same gameplay
and took out the cutscenes.
I am not saying that you can't have flavor without an overriding storyline

me: I wouldn't then call it an RPG
everything about the world and your role in it is implied

craze: are roguelikes RPGs?

me: I would say so, in the purest form of "role playing"
you have a specific role to act out other than 'little dude jumping on turtles' which clearly doesn't count as an immersive role

craze: I am starting to hate the term "RPG"
so much

me: regardless of overarching story
you have.. a detailed world
focusing on you as a person
as opposed to Shadow of the Colossus
a detailed world, focusing on
climbing... tall shit
and stabbing mountains


Basically, RPGs need to have SOME FORM OF STORY AND PLOT or they aren't an RPG at all as far as what I determine the genre to represent. Story and Plot are requirements of an actual RPG Setting as opposed to With-Rpg-Features. I've heard a lot of people argue that "THEY MADE DRAGON AGE 2 AN ADVENTURE GAME" but it's still an immersive world with explicit stories and plotting - it's clearly an RPG with Adventure Gameplay. Compare Super Mario World to Mario RPG - a clear example of the same game as a Platformer and as an RPG. Story exists in both, but is obviously more important as the driving force in the RPG.

In short, yes, they need -a- story. It doesn't have to be great, but like any other game feature, if it's BAD the game as a whole suffers for it.

I have been told it helps if you imagine everything I say in House's voice.


Wow, that...works really well.

I would start telling people to do that but it would make no sense. But imagine everything I say in Ursula's voice.

What makes you laugh?

That part was true. My grandfathers was a half insane sick old man and forced me to learn that swordsmanship style the hard way, which I just recently found out was a style he made up during WW2. It does suprize a ton of people though, with the whrillwind spin in the first strike.
