We only show off the cool parts of our projects lol. But we all do the repetitive and dull tasks too, since they are necessary. Actually those dull tasks are the hardest part, since it makes you want to just abandon your project and start a new one (since you always have plenty of cool ideas you want to implement).

I'm still trying to figure out how to stop enemies from acting stupid. I'm sitting on one of the most comprehensive, detailed and strategically rewarding battle systems ever seen in rpgmaker but it's potential is wasted by a lack of adaptability. I think there is a reason most srpgs just resort to having you hopelessly outnumbered as their 'difficulty' system.

Hey, for what it's worth, I am not making an RPG. It's more of an adventure game, AND you're still making progress.

*proceed to steal some sweetrolls*

Its a crime if you're wrong about not getting caught.

Ignorance is a cultural anathema for some reason. So much so that people will lie, misrepresent and put their foot in their mouth just to keep up a facade that they aren't...ironically this behavior often keeps people from learning. So we keep ourselves ignorant just to appear as if we aren't a lot of times.

Hurray!

I replay FF Dimensions at least twice a year.

Yes, but definitely not Minecraft.

I go back to Minecraft every year or so. Always feels like a fresh new game when I do.

When I think about a "horror" game, I always remember my first play of Resident Evil on the PSX, and the cat I had at the time. A cat who, when hearing the dogs in the game, would patrol the house growling in a tone just for that game--adding to the effect.

I don't like that genre either.

Dude I feel the same...

Since it's been brought up, the kind of RPG world I long to make will be a much more merciful one. Other creatures will be pretty much equals, and I don't just mean cats and dogs. I want to make it so that humanity never decided on those awful habits @Benny Jackdaw pointed out. Hunting in particular is quite cruel, so that won't even exist.

Now I know what you're thinking: "How will that even work? It's not realistic!" My answer is simply: It's not supposed to be!

I also wanted to go for a semi-futuristic setting, which goes back to my original post. The future I have in mind is not a bleak and gritty future, but a vibrant and exciting one!

I will think about that when I do tilesets :3

Ya much like @shadefoundry said, if you spend too much time doing this nothing gets done. I make the maps as nice as I can that day and I don't spend more time on those ones. Just the events.

I sometimes feel a bit unsatisfied when looking at my old maps. If they're not like huge, I'll remake them, but in most cases they're still serviceable and leave them as they are.

Yeah I set up the basic layout of my maps but plan to do a few renditions as my game progresses. It's natural to improve throughout a project.

Poyo?

I know right!

You're never too old for the zoo.

So adorable. The next time I go to the zoo, maybe I should get a porcupine plushie.

I guess they were on vacation? Gotta give the Nooklings a break sometime!

I feel like then Nook would have roped some traveler who just moved into the town to help him clean his shop. I think this nook is an impostor!

Tom Nook IRL

You're not doing anything wrong, it's just a forum issue that's currently being looked into.

Really? Ah, ok. Well I hope it won't be too much of a hassle to sort out!

Bright sunny days (like today) on the other hand, those are the real danger. More people are injured due to heatstroke than any other weather-related injuries, you know how many construction workers fall off of roofs or people just plain faint each year because they just don't think about staying hydrated? Far more than people getting struck by lightning, tornadoes or floods I'll guarantee you that much.

The louder the better and the flashier, same thing. I love thunderstorms and can't get enough of them!

They can be startling at times, and growing up where there are a lot of tornadoes makes me cautious, but I love lying in bed listening to the rain and thunder.

making a battle she does hard work. I need several for 2003, but making one for MV as a whole nother can of worms. however, I wish you luck and would love to see what you can come up with. it might help to use a simple Style.

Thanks! I managed to make a start with it, but it's going to be a loooooong while before I make some ample progress. Doesn't help that there are other distractions to keep me busy!

Ah, those blasted distractions. I know them well.

@The Mighty Palm Huh, you learn something new every day!
@starlight dream Ooh, that Is interesting(Despite the fact that I have no Idea who that is...).

Also, welcome back! I hope you're doing well lately.

Starlight came back today. This is interesting.

@Marsigne LOL My comeback was on a boring Sunday. How fitting

@Mystic_Enigma Dali was an... interesting... artist
