Controversy: Which FF game ruined the series?

post=153114
I'd say FF8 but but I think FF10 2 might have been the nail in the coffin.


I liked X-2, it was nice to play something a little more lighthearted and less epic than the usual FF fare (well, in the first part of the game at least). Solid gameplay too.

Shame about The Spirits Within too, I thought it was a good movie.

Pretentious Bullshit and Missing the Point: The Sequel to the Game to the Movie

What I don't understand is why the the gaming community tried to use the release of SCMRPG and the resulting controversy and media coverage to argue for the mainstream acceptance of videogames as a legitimate way of dealing with these subjects.
Surely if you wanted to be taken seriously, you would centre your arguments around a game that tackled these with maturity and care so that you (and subsequently the entire gaming community) wouldn't be made to look completely idiotic in the media.

\\Back on Topic
To be honest, there are so few RM games that resort to tastlessness for tastelessness' sake that I personally think it's a non-issue. I think that the majority of the community is perfectly capable of judging a game based on it's merits and shortcomings and that if a game is fun and made well, it'll do well. If the creator can tackle difficult subjects in an interesting and sensitive way, then the community should take that into account when they form their opinions.

Speaking of tact, lets not forget the most (in)famous RPG Maker game of all time:



Basically just an exercise in how far you can push the barriers of taste.

Oh shit is that the original mazda mx-5?
i will never understand how people can tell what kind of car it is just by seeing the bonnet


It's one of the first cars you get in Gran Turismo 3, which I played A LOT. I like cars too.

Hello from a very old RPG Maker...

Help with event issues, please?

Only option I can think of right now is to activate a switch when you walk on the tile, surround the tile with events (or wherever the player can walk), set them to trigger another switch on player touch if the switch on the tile you want changed is activated, so it'd run like:

player stands on tile :
switch TileActive = ON

player steps off tile onto surrounding events:
IF switch TileActive = ON THEN switch TileMadeImpassable = ON AND switch TileActive = OFF

I think that'd work.

Video thread!

Hahahahaha anime. (Kinda NSFW)
