This is one pic I think speaks volumes:

Castlevania?

and drop the heavily victimized attitude, dude. the fact is that these conflicts arise because you're always snapping at people for fairly small stuff.

as a sidenote, to kind of build off of sophist's point, if you're always so negative with people when they make decent comments (I agree, some are less useful than others and some are obvious spam, but the former doesn't deserve any sort of disdain) then people will be less and less interested in your project thread because the person directing it is constantly coming off as someone with a superior attitude and predisposition towards arguing over petty things. it doesn't matter whether or not you're actually like that, because that's the impression you're leaving. people don't like seeing people approached with that sort of demeanour unless it looks like they deserved it.

so you see it's in your best interests as well to take this sort of stuff with respect -- this was more or less my point when I said "don't be a snarky bitch, it's bad advertising," albeit phrased in a less abusive manner.

You should present and shar to us your "well done" jobs either than your "not so good" game.

 

[nikki]

Sorry if you dont like my ideas. But thats what I want to do and am sticking to the plan.

 

[Skyla Doragono]

Look, I am sorry for causing trouble before alright? Im just trying to have a little fun here, sharing my little project with others. Can I please not have to worry about getting banned everytime I open my mouth?

Stop being a twat and you won't have that problem.  You hardly made a good first impression, and your offhanded selfish comments make you look like a dick, both on the forums and IRC.

Cool the attitude.  It will get you no where here.

 

[nikki]

Honestly, I dont think I really had such a bad attitude. I just responded to a couple unhelpful comments with honesty. You know, "perv" "your concept was destroyed with one word" "This seems like a crappy attempt to make a game." I just told them that Im making the sort of game that I want to make, and they dont have to play it. I dont see anything wrong with that.

Yeah I guess I did make a bad first impression and some people wont let me live it down. On IRC, I was just messing around and having conversations just like everyone else. So come on, give me a chance and let bygones be bygones. Sheeze!

 

[nikki]

Now if we can move on to talking about the game again and not about my personality...

I have been building more maps today. I figured it was about time to focus more attention on that since I got all of the complicated eventing stuff done, and settled on some fonts that I like. Im using a sort of handwriting font for the modern game but I need a better windowskin for it. Id like to find something that looks sort of like notebook paper, you know the type with the lines and stuff?

Areas I am building include another city street area, this one more slummy, a subway, schoolhouse, chinatown, hospital and a movie theater. Surely I'll come up with lots of other stuff too. Sorry, no screenshots yet, they are still WIP.

seriously rmxp.org is one fucked up forum... ive never seen so many assholes, not to mention mods and sponsors. theres no constructive criticism from ANYONE here. everyone is so busy bashing other people, swearing and insulting that they forget to comment on the storyline/images/maps and such.
so anyway me gots a question - will this be a game where everything will revolve around sex, or will this be rpg with battles and stuff and +some kinky stuff that we all love so much?

Amen brother.

yes, pretty much everything will revolve around sex. Theres two games I am making, one a fantasy based game, and the other a modern setting game. The fantasy one will have battles in it, but setting up all of the stats for weapons/enemies seem like an awful lot of work for me, so for now I am going to let the battles be really really easy. Im going to put much more emphasis on dialog and choices rather than combat. maybe at a later date I will revisit the game and really put some effort into the stats.

Dont forget, even the monsters in the game will be sexy anime chicks whos clothing will fall off when you use certain attacks. EVERYTHING is about sex!

The modern game wont have battles at all. Just stalking, theft, and rape, all that fun and nasty stuff. :D

gotcha, hope this game reaches at least the demo stage. i'll look more into it when i'm finished drooling over the battlers  :grin:

Its so nice to finally meet a like-minded individual Thanks for the support.

How am I forgetting to comment on these things? They don't exist. Show me the storyline, and tell me that it is structured, or even had more than a minutes thought put into it. I've reviewed games before, and this isn't so much a game as a hentai-freak's little project.

Nikki, I'm sorry that my thoughts on your project are upsetting you, but honestly there isn't anything here that could possibly called a game, let alone a good idea. This "project" seems more like a newgrounds game where you undress your hentai look alike roommates in a whacked out adventure...Which doesn't appeal to me. Is that constructive enough for you?

1.the first post covers and explains the basic idea of the game and further posts reveal more of relevant info.
2.so first you are saying that there isn't any content of the game to discuss, then you state your opinion how this game is a bad idea in general. how can you comment on something you didn't see there? that's the same if i would comment on movie that isn't even out yet - it's just your opinion on hentai-based games and not this specific game.
i don't know how much have you read about this game but it has the plot KIND OF covered, and has some of the concept and is more informative then most of projects here. it's also unique in a way that you don't just save the world with 'dark knight' class character.

so i can't say much about this game other then that it's a nice refreshment from "avenge father's death, save the world" games, we will see how it really looks when the first demo comes out. and if you are a competent reviewer you should know better then to make impressions about games without playing them or as you claim

How am I forgetting to comment on these things? They don't exist.

without knowing the first thing about them...

You want me to be constructive? You can have constructive.

I looked through your main post once more. This time trying to put my impression of you asside and being objective.

First of all: I guess your right... your game is... different.
Maybe you already noticed by the way I am writing about it, that I don't like some parts of it.
Lets start with the developers point of view.
So you are planning to involve different battle systems (classical, tactical) into your game. This is by default a bad idea, since the player isn't be to fond of having to learn a new system in the middle of the game. And since you wanted to make the battles easy thats quite like shooting your own leg. Stick with one.

Your world is big. It has tons of NPC. And all the ladys are your playthings? Oh boy, be prepared for a hell load of work. You have to set up all the different events one by one. Depending on how difficult it is to "get" the NPCs this work will even get more annoying.
Second problem with this is, and I know that you won't get this one at once: Dialouge. I guess I'll take a new paragraph to explain this.

Sex as it comes by nature is very intimate. So I am looking at the screen while playing your game and a sex scene is happening. You know what I am getting at?
You will have to get me emotionally involved somehow. Sex scenes can be used to show a wide circle of emotions. They can be disturbing, make you feel sad, happy, confused...
So how do these feelings come to the player?
Sure one thing is the pictures. I get an overall feeling from that. But most importantly is the great weapon of every game creator who is telling a story: Dialouge.
Through dialouge before any particular scene ( must not be sex) I will know a character better later on. If I don't know a character I won't get to feel anything for them.
So any kind of dialouge is very important before something as emotional as a sex scene. Because honestly: Do you want me to go all "Hm, so know this dude is banging this chick I don't know. Why should I care?" or "Yeah, finally I got her to fall for me. Man am I glad."?
This will by the way be very hard with just shallow characters, you were stating in your first post.

Conclusion: This project will cost you a lot of work. As you are not serious about it (and I still wonder why you posted this) I don't know if you can pull it through the very end.
If you do... Hell, I would even play it to see what you made out of it and to be constructive a bit more.

Hope this is actually seen as helpfull by you

Perhaps you should consider the fact that about 90% of this forum is comprised of 13-16-year-old nerds that probably have never touched a girl and don't even know what a boob feels like.  I'm all for story-based games and smut in said games, and while we allow for such things here (with the proper warnings of course), you have to consider your audience as well.

Also, sounding like a pretentious twat when you say "don't like it don't play it" doesn't help you either.

Yeah I guess I did make a bad first impression and some people wont let me live it down. On IRC, I was just messing around and having conversations just like everyone else. So come on, give me a chance and let bygones be bygones. Sheeze!

No; when you start out as a shithead, it takes a lot of working to convince the staff that you're anything but.  Unless you're just amusing, which is pretty much the only reason we're still keeping you around.

Nikki, this is one reason why you make such a bad impression. I made a post and ment it to be helpfull. But you totally ignore it.
RMXP is easy. Creating a game is not.
Even the shitiest game of history takes time. And please don't tell me you are going to make this shitiest game in history.
Morrorwind Modding doesn't need emotions. Getting someone to care about a fictional character does.

Please don't take EVERYTHING as an insult. I don't want to insult neither you nor your game. Some people just spammed here, but others are giving you their honest opinions. Why don't you relax and take your time to think about it.

By the way what did you expect when you started a project with a theme, which has so many different opinions about itself? Of course people are going to come to state theirs.

 

[S S Muu]

Ive never been to a forum where moderators act like this. It takes some getting used to, seriously.

There's a good reason for this, usually the moderators are carefully picked by the owner of the forum.
Here they're just voted by the members which means they are the ones the members likes the most and not those who are best qualified for the job. (this is not directed to all mods becouse some of them are actually doing a good job)
That's imo one of the biggest flaws this forum has.

Anyway, even thought I'm not really a fan of hentai or anything like that, I'm going to take nikki's side here.
Seriously, if you don't like the game or the idea then don't say anything at all, if you on the other hand have something good to say about it or have some positive feedback (like some, just some of you do) then, you're free to say it.

Unless you're just amusing, which is pretty much the only reason we're still keeping you around.

lulz

ahem, anyway...
most hentai games can be considered interactive novels (granted a few have some gameplay, minigames, what have you...). i like a few hentai games because of their story, character development, and good artwork. (you have a good taste in cg artwork i might add)

but right now i consider your project one huge-ass slide show of cg hentai images. (sorry if that sounds a little harsh)

here are a few suggestions:
-story is important in hentai games (most hentai games have little to no gameplay), make an effort to put some character development for at least the main characters.
-add some challenge and variety, aside from playing the guessing game in dialogues in order to get to an h-scene... make some battles tough, and reward the player with an h-scene. here's an example:
you find and fight an optional boss (doesn't have to be optional)...
and if you win:
 one of the female characters gets injured, you stay with her to comfort her, she falls in love with the guy, and then she'll thank you later in the game for your company.
if you loose:
 you get injured, and depending on your previous actions in the game, one or more of the girls comes and 'comforts' you.

or you can be a total ass to the player and instead of an h-scene, you can reward the player with some gold! hooray!

the only character artwork i recognize is of the monsters, i don't recognize any of the other girls.

that's my opinion about this project, having played a few good hentai games in the past... this one is just a 'slide show' to me.
(please don't take that as an insult, it's just an old title i gave to bad hentai games)
i know it's still in development, but based on what you said... you're not going to get very far.
like i said, i like hentai games for their story, character development and artwork. other people like it for the artwork alone, or any combination of the three.

i'll play it when you get a demo out, good luck.

wow that would be really nice. would require a lot of work but i always encourage to make plot-lines that would require players act in a certain manner for their benefit. that brings some thought and realism to the game and makes you think more for your main character and i guess get a better feel of the game, rather then just feeling as a spectator  :thumb:
