Everwind Chronicles - New Stuff!

Hate to break it to you, but it sort of was. I mean, sure, it was a little harsh, but a lot of times harshness gets the point across better than just going "Oh yeah, the mapping wasn't good, but it was still a good game!!" How does that help you? He was giving you good tips on how to improve your game, and you freaked. Anyway...

Well, I just sort of played a bit of the game, it's pretty average so far. Mapping is a bit sub-par. They seem too square-like, even for VX. I like how it immediately thrusted you into the gameplay, however, the intro wasn't very good (I didn't get much of a sense of action) and it would've been a lot better if you had made sprites of the enemies dead, instead of them disappearing. Also, it kind of defeats the purpose in my eyes if you say that the villain is the antagonist right at the intro, then have them all lose their memories. You could've taken that opportunity to create a twist later on. (albeit an extremely cliched twist, but a twist nonetheless) Anyway...haven't played much, although the battle system is pretty repetitive, as previously mentioned. (although I don't like any VX battle systems in the first place (except Gubid's TBS)) Didn't know if you caught this, but if you use the water skill, it will still show his bow.

If Avadan wanted to change all the character's levels to 99, then why not? If you left the demo purposely unencrypted, then people should be free to whatever they want. It should also be expected that you would've wrinkled out bugs before releasing it, instead of making us fix them. Not only does it show laziness, but it makes it seem like you didn't put much effort into playtesting. Anyway, I'll shut up now, just my two cents.

Wow Fight's are annoying...
How about you chillax and watch some charlie the unicorn or something...
If not? Go lick a toilet omfg

Was that really needed? Flaming and spamming in one...gratz  :straightthumb:

I did work out all the bugs, but in the previous demo Shingu found a bug that I didn't, and I was really cnfused and had no idea what to do so I figured leave it unencrypted instead of just bothering with that again.

now THAT is an example of some constructive criticism.  take notes Avadan.




EDIT:

also, to kind of clear some things, I'm a WAAAAY better mapper in XP.  Unfortunately I still haven't really gotten good at VX mapping yet.  I'm still working though.  If you wanna be "wtf no u ain't show me proof u suck at mappin evrywhar"
then ill show you some XP maps >_>

Yes, master Luminier.  I am done with my immature foolish rampage.

Man xephyr14, you have a terrible attitude.

People told you your VX mapping is bad.  Who cares if you're a better mapper in XP?  Instead of saying crap like that, you should improve on you VX mapping.

Anyways, you have a horrible attitude.  No way in hell am I playing your game now, because you only want feedback on it if it's good, and from the looks/sounds of it IT ISN'T GOOD.

(Started writing this before Lumi and you so...  Yeah, concur w/ Lumi.)

because you only want feedback on it if it's good

I took Dadevster's bad criticism just fine, didn't I?  Just saying.

 

[MukanshinBlack]

If he didn't 'sprinkle' his post with goodness like he did, you probaly wouldn't.

Dadevster = no sprinkles
"Mapping is a bit sub-par. They seem too square-like, even for VX." = Your mapping is below average.
"the intro wasn't very good (I didn't get much of a sense of action)" = the intro was pretty bad (the action scenes had no action)
"Was that really needed? Flaming and spamming in one...gratz" = *sarcasim*

 

[Xephyr]

It's not the sprinkles (though sprinkles are good on ice cream).

I only take criticism when it's good criticism.  Go ahead and download it and speak all honesty as long as its good criticism.

I don't wanna mention Avadan's post at all cause i dont want a warning or anything.  But I just thought his criticism was really stupid.

1.) Do not Complain about CriticismUpdated as of 5-26-08
The primary purpose of this board is not just to get your game out there for others to see, but also for others to comment on your progress.  If you can't take criticism, no matter how harsh or friendly it may be, then it's not a good idea for you to post here.

Also, just because someone gives you negative feedback, that doesn't give you a right to flame them for their opinion.  If you feel that the poster is giving you a negative response as a personal attack then report their post instead.

Lastly, do not request your topic to be deleted because you don't like the responses you get.  We won't do it unless it turns into a blatant spam and flame fest, and even then we will only lock it.

Don't think you read the PD rules but...  Get used to negative criticism.  That is what most members here at RMXP.org offer.

Anyways, I'm done with getting off-topic.
