I'M LIKE TOTALLY CANCELLING THE GAME OR SOMETHING
by the way, Ifrit is differentiated from Fire3-All in that there is no fire3-all spell (even in games where you can multitarget your spells, it splits the damage) and summons have a wider area of effect than normal spells (in systems like FFT). summons deal higher damage than the same-element equivalent and can have cooler effects (sylph deals damage then splits that damage among the party as healing, i've never seen a nonsummon spell represented to do that) (edit: in final fantasy, that is)
so there is plenty of differentiation and everything you just stated about what a summon 'should be' is personal opinion
(even if it's the cooler way of doing a summon)

Summons weren't even summons until FFX. There, I said it. (in terms of combat)
(FF8 tried to make them more "summoney" but failed miserably)
They were just "X FLAVORED MAGIC DAMAGE TO ALL ENEMIES PLUS VISUAL FLASHINESS"
Summons were also used for buffing, healing, debuffing, etc. They have the widest range of effects of any single class of magic short of being "real summons."
Blue Magic is just X Flavored Magic learned in a fancy way
Items are just X Flavored Magic in a consumable
etc
Our goal for today...

That room is extremely barren and plain ... maybe make a differently-colored square in the middle of the room as a sort of designated 'dueling area' would help break the monotony. You could even sprite some posters on the wall since it's supposed to be a cosplay convention or something? :x
Also, a surprising number of those people aren't paying any attention to the battle...

What are you thinking about right now?
author=Kindredzauthor=VersaliaThat makes about as much sense as your earlier statement that I responded too.
your screen name ends with a z, disqualified
Things aren't looking good...
That statement was so obviously purposely retarded on my part I am shocked that I even need to respond. (I will respond with something other than a purposely idiotic and dismissively flippant statement if you actually pose a reason or argument for your disagreement with my earlier statement/s. Otherwise your style of argument is "no it's not" "yes it is" "no it's not" "yes it is.")
author=Bonehead11author=VersaliaI almost chocked on this. Have you ever saw a gypsy? At least on a picture?
your avatar is a hot gypsy, you are an exception
You almost what on this? Have I ever what a gypsy on a picture? Speak English to me please. Also, see above. Jesus

How about a good looking game that plays well. Why are they always, or at least often talked about as if they're mutually exclusive?
Because as you pointed out, developers have strength in one area or the other. Honestly though, if forced to choose between them, the choice should always be gameplay. A pretty game with poor gameplay might as well be a movie.
Don't settle for choosing between them, of course~
VX for Dummies: The Event Screen
Very informative! I'm sure someone will find this useful.
However, the "Event ID and Page Manager Panel" portion is poorly-written. You state that you're purposely trying to avoid getting into specific commands, but then you describe how a page might be used with commands; and in avoiding going into detail, you end up making it sound more cryptic and confusing than it really is.

Game Title Test, what do you think?
I really like that! The clouds are good as clouds go, but I would remove them and see how the title screen looks without them entirely. You might also want to simply use little touches of them around the bottom and right edges of the picture, so it looks more like a sort of "mist" swirling around the edges.

author=heisenmancounterattacks, autolife, MP absorption on top of normal damage, earning MP by removing states from an enemy, states that raise critical damage, etc.You should start making the game look ~pretty using SNES graphics instead of working on creating new battle mechanics.
What.
Excellently-designed gameplay > pretty graphics
