One Night: Full Circle

[moog]

believe me man, im not putting you down, my point was just to make sure you have all your bases covered or the internet will be a cruel mistress

WHY THE FUCK do you like to pick on me so much?

because you consistently give me reason to. sorry, but it isn't a personal thing, and never will be.

'sides, I'm not the only one who's of this particular school of opinion as pertains to your work.

@Atlet: Dude, everyone knows I struggle with criticism initially. Then I lighten up later. That's just how I am.

if you know this then stop it before it starts!

That, perhaps, might be all reason people look at your games then realize you made it and push it aside.

Okay, sure I understand you. My mistake, I jumped to a conclusion and now have to clean up the mess. I've learned my lesson.

Its not that big of a deal man, and I see your point overall. Just be careful in jumping the gun

Guys, I know this isn't personal, but if you haven't figured it out, I over-react a lot and am easily upset, so I'm sorry if I perceive this as being personal. In my experience, whenever people pick on me, it is personal, so I can't help getting worked up in this way.

[...] so I can't help getting worked up in this way.

of course you can. people all over the greater community manage it every day.

 

[Dark Gaia]

Yes, well I have a problem controlling my emotions yeah? I'll rephrase that: It's difficult for me to not get worked up over that.

 

[mawk]

well, deal. there is a 90% chance that like most people on the internet, you do not actually have the fundamental psychological problems you attribute to yourself.

Dark Gaia, man, you gotta rellllaaxxxx and just smoke some weed :smoke:

 

[Dark Gaia]

Okay... I've calmed down now. Really, I just want to clear this Misaos thing up, that's all. I've had a bad run with this game so far... Mixed reviews... A resource scandal, and now this. Phew.

I know how you feel about that, but you just have to remember that people in this area or work are not calling you out on something at a personal level. We're all here, on the internet. We don't know YOU as a person, and you don't know us. It never pays to take anything online to offense. Just take few breaths and remember that no ones out to get you; everyone wants to see you improve. You've got talent, you're able to improve if you take your time and don't take what people say about your projects as personal offense.

 

[moog]

Dont worry too much about it. Just carry on with the game and put it behind you.

As for this topic, I feel its been derailed enough!

I think give this a whirl though, just to see what all the fuss is about. Do I need the RTP?

 

[Dark Gaia]

That's true. You're right. Thanks for that, I'll keep it in mind.

I really do want to improve, but it just seems that by now people have just sort of given up on my games so even if I do improve they won't care. Legionwood is an example. I've posted on many forums saying I'm committed to revamping it and addressing all the things people dislike about it but everyone's just sort of been "meh".

 

[moog]

If you want, you can post a thread in Concept Development about ideas and ways to help revamp your games or future ideas. Its a really good way to get noticed and further build your rm skills, since the majority of members here know their rm stuff.

It doesn't take much to talk a big game. Anyone who tries to sell something does this.
What people really care about is the actual product though. I know you're working on the improvement of your stuff,(legionwood, I know) and I'd like to see a lot more from you, because I think you got the talent, but you're focused more on selling than developing.
People are 'meh' because you sold them to your project, but you don't KEEP your 'customers' as it were.

 

[Dark Gaia]

Good idea! Since I'm currently working on redoing Legionwood, I may just set up a topic there.

Anyway, we've gone really off topic now (talking about my personal problems in a Game thread) so I'm gonna just forget this all ever happened.

Yeah, I'm gonna work really hard on Legionwood and I'll just let the game's quality be what people like, not my hype.

A capital idea. I liked what I saw of Legionwood. Good luck with it, I'll defiantly offer up anything I can say if you get a C.D. thread for it going, man!

 

[Dark Gaia]

I just set one up. Let's work hard to make my game a better one.
