ALTEREGO'S PROFILE

So apparently, freedom of speech is a "centrist" ideology now. Heh; I've heard worse, I just find odd to see that here. But come to think of it. That's really nothing new/shocking when you put it next to: "words/ideas/games are problematic/harmful/get people killed" which are very popular beliefs around here... on a creative community, of all places... for god knows what reason.... But that begs the question. Is the average rmn denizen becoming more, would you say... "radical"? ;) Ah! "Progress".

In other news. Poor LockeZ, he gets so misunderstood. Sometimes I just want to hug him and make games with him forever. <3

*Sigh* They no longer make awesome music/videos like these anymore...

Mmhh. Sounds good, but, I don't have this 'Steam' thing -I'm not much of a PC gamer and I'm not sure what the payment options may be in my country- so I don't know if it's worth getting it just to clear my conscience over pirating an ancient piece of software... Then again, maybe I can revive Nightfall without feeling -as- guilty now. I was planning on going full VX Ace eventually (Or whatever the next rpg maker might be) but at the same time, I had put a decent amount of work in the rm2k3 version already. xP

No, seriously, what's the next rpg maker gonna be? Is it really coming out before 2016 like that timeline in the video seems to hint?

C'mon, you, people on the inside; spill the beans!! *shakesfist*

And the chapel was never meant to be the hub...

I worded that poorly, I guess. The Chapel was probably never meant to be a hub by you, but that was the idea I had. xD I remember discussing this with you, but then we lost contact, so... =( Another bit of trivia is that I had the impression the Chapel would be above ground, that's why there's natural light coming from the windows; but it ended up being underground somehow. =P

Anyway, I checked the game and all my fixes are there, so I don't know what happened... The review seems fair either way so, it's alright.

Also, based on the picture's title I was expecting something much different.

I thought that was the joke (*Gasp*). C'mon, "Dragon Wang" sets a 'funny' mental image. Don't change the name... =/

Regarding the other thing. I think there's a strand of legitimate criticism hidden in all the "peer-pressure-ing" of the last several posts. It is indeed more difficult to 'get' what a character is saying when they have a modified speech patterns in the form of written text than when you're actually listening to them speaking. I remember I hated this in Chrono Cross because I had to constantly 'adjust' back and forth from one character to another, because nearly every one of the 30+ characters in the game had their own quirky speech issues... Is mostly just a mild inconvenience thing for players. But as long as you don't overdo it, you should be fine.

Ironically enough, here's an idea. Don't have every person in this town/restaurant speak in the exact same way. Have some people have a pronounced accent, and others have a more 'normalized' accent. You could explain this within the game's lore in a number of ways. Maybe in recent years people travel around the world a lot more, making the younger generations more exposed to foreign accents; while older people, people with less 'flexible' ways, retain their original tick accents. idk... This way you get to keep this different dialects thing, and the same time, reasonably address some of the concerns people have brought up here.


Drama hidden, because, drama.
