Post What's on Your Mind

Coming up with a story is the easiest part. Writing it for a game is the hard part. Majority of RPG Maker games get this horribly wrong with their 16 minute introduction cut-scenes with pages and pages of text to mash-through because the developer accidentally wrote a film script for their story that they spent more time on writing the origins of the universe than actually detailing the game-play experiences the player has.

Then the actual story is written so incredibly rigid and single-minded that the game turns into a top-down visual novel and does nothing to exploit the player's freedom and ability to make choices.

lol.

I need to continue writing the script for the first issue of ruthless.

I hate that every endeavor I embark on costs me money.

I AM POH
 
Is this coming from the guy who just bought 5000 cards for a CCG? And who speculates on cryptocurrency? Either you're not actually poor, or I can list 5001 reasons why you're poor.

lol!

the 5000 cards were $40usd. It was some throwaways I guess. And the cryptocurrency is penny stocks!

but all my endeavors cost money and will "hopefully" make me money in the long run. I need a skill that makes me money now... or an endeavor that doesn't cost anything to pursue.

so I'm looking for a battle system on rmxp that suits my fancy and I came across 3 that looked very appealing to me.

Charlie Fleed's CBS
Ar Tonelico CBS

I'm kind of leaning towards Ar Tonelico's. Any of you guys have any experience with any of these?
 
Got to acceptances to two of my unis. Nice.
Now I just need to actually finish this course. I failed to hand in one assignment on time but everything else is going well I guess.
