Post What's on Your Mind

It's really weird looking back at some old RM project readme files and seeing game developers write out an explanation for as to why they encrypted their game. Guess there was a lot of anti-encryption folk back in the day? Seems like a really odd thing for people to have a problem with. Someone makes a game, they don't want their resources or events or anything stolen, so they encrypt it. Seems very fair to me.
 
I've got this palm plant thing I brought inside for the winter. I've got a humidifier in my room, and I heard that the steam would be really good for this plant since it's tropical. So I put the plant in my room and notice it does look a lot healthy next to the steam and has been growing some new stems over the past week or so.
But now it reeeaks like sour milk. Idk if it always gives off that smell as the palms open or if some part of it is rotting in the pot.
Now my room stinks.

SONY cancels my game Omega Labyrinth Z, all other systems allows it. Such a dumbass company... Wait a minute, WTF site is this?!!

Hahahaha, oh shit! No way, no way. Gotta back track, and look at all the depression... LOL I knew it. Turn that frown upside down. H-Y-B-R-I-D-A is here for you.

ATTENTION ALT-LEFT


Hybrida Kazumi speaking. This thread is directed at the alternative lifestyle people here, especially Bacon. I know it's you being childish because I don't support, or agree with to alt-left population here. (I never will by the way.)

Listen closely. People have opinions and beliefs in the world. If you don't like those opinions, you don't act out against them. If you do, like Bacon or who ever did, the results could be catastrophic.

This is very serious. I had no idea I was on an alt-left site. Being punished for opinions and stating facts. Not good. Listen, if I don't agree with something I feel is wrong, I'm not agreeing with it no matter what! Sure I post questionable funny things on HBgames when I'm drunk, I'm not alt-Left. I'm straight. Please understand that. Anything else is considered abnormal. If it were normal it wouldn't need a movement, or be 2% of the Earth's population? Right?




HOW DISAGREEMENT TURNS INTO HATE:

If someone is punished for not agreeing with something, it leads to hatred. DEEP HATRED. Now thanks to HB games and a few other places, I'm researching the alt-right. I don't plan on joining them, but I understand their stance now. I thought they were crazy. Thank you Bacon, I was pro left, now I'm pro right because of you. <3 <3

Thanks to places like 4-Chan where I can say whatever I want, I was able to vent and calm down. Free unrestricted speech for the win. Venting is good. It can save lives.


REALIZED THIS:

@Bacon
Let me be clear. The world is not all unicorns and rainbows. IT NEVER WILL BE. You need to understand that. They're people and countries out there a million times worst than me. At least I have full control and restraint. Don't punish me because I post something you don't like. In the real world you can't stop anyone from speaking their mind. That causes revolutions, rebellions, and most importantly HATRED and DEATH...


THE TRADITIONAL PLANET YOU BETTER RECOGNISE.


Most of the population of the Earth thinks like me. Russia, China, India, all of the middle east, Africa, and Etc. 98% to be exact. 2% of the alternative population is fighting a losing battle. No amount of banning or tampering with my account will change that. On 4 chan they would call this post a redpill (AKA the cold hard truth).



LET'S AGREE TO BE CAREFUL


@Bacon
How would you feel knowing your direct actions caused people to get hurt or die? Will you be able to sleep at night? I think before I act. I'm not sure about you. I'm stable, but imagine if I were someone unstable.

Your simple trolling would have lead to something catastrophic. You never know the mindset of a person. I'll never tell someone to kill themselves. They might do it. That's very high among the 'alt-left' according to statistics.


Happy 2018! I'm sure I'll be banned again or tampered with (fake posts). Everyone can't be as strong as me. It's why I'll always be better than them. Your move HBgames. Prove me wrong. Go ahead.

I did my time, and guys proved me 100% right. Rage screaming and getting "rid" of me solved nothing. You still have to live your life. There's nothing else to say on the matter.

Celebrate. I'm back. You know you missed me. The echo chamber of depression is over. Back to nukes, dickgirls, and the occasional Scat... That was a joke by the way. Honestly. Just cause and effect internet material.


Seriously stop being depressed so much. Everyone.
 
How about we just discuss making video games and leave the rest of that stuff to 4chan and reddit?

I may not agree with everyone here on some pretty fundamental issues, but I don't bring it up because it's not relevant to why I joined this community. And I'm not going to barge into someone's house just to pick a fight with him. The people here were very friendly, welcoming, and helpful when I needed help with Himeko Sutori. And I keep coming back because they stay friendly, welcoming, and helpful. I left RPG.net because they couldn't just discuss RPGs and their politics became intolerable. We don't have to turn this place into another internet brawl.

You're cool. Don't worry. I understand the escapism. My country and Europe isn't going through good times at the moment. We're here for the games, and creativity. I'll try to keep it that way.

Seems like something catastrophic happened here while I was incognito / undercover for the past 5 months. *shrug*
 
I think RPGs scratch an itch in a way reality doesn't with systems that will always reciprocate your actions in meaningful ways to compliment deficits. A wheel of samsara. A Causal plane of karmic patterns rooted in a database otherwise known as the akashic records. It is a realm of lesser lights, the bardo, between 2 lives. Where you realize everything is set in motion by you and letting go is the only escape.

Absorb thyself in this Great Sea of the Waters of Life.
Dive deep in it until thou hast lost thyself.
And having lost thyself.
Then shalt thou find thyself again.
Even as it was written, she had her dwelling in the great sea,
and was a fish therein.
Changeless. This great sea of elemental water remaineth forever pure.
Because of this it possesseth the quality of stability.
From water do all forms have their beginning.


Lately it's been a theme of isekai anime series to transition from earth to otherworld via reincarnation.
Bastion, in the Neverending Story, was trapped in Fantastica and went through a similar process of rebirth. Literally seeking the water of life.
The Kabalistic motifs featuring the Sephiroth in so many worlds is no coincidence either.
I hated, no, loathed Digimon Frontier for the longest time. They lacked Digimon partners and the meaningful relationship. But I can appreciate the whole Spirit Evolution thing now and understand what they were doing with Sephirothmon and Mercurymon. It's genius. But frustratingly stupid.

I just started playing (20hrs in) Legend Of Legaia to beat it because I never did. Man I can’t help but smile at how amazing this game is. They really don’t make games like this anymore. There’s so many different aspects that go into why this game is so great. After the company went defunct and whoever the fuck picked it up REALLY dropped the ball. I would really love for a part 3 to be picked up by a company that understands what made this great.

I did miss you hybrida <3
I know <3. I'm the arrogant guy everyone loves to hate. Proud of it. Imagine a story with no antagonist. Boring.

I may keep a low profile here. I hang out at 4Chan under this same name. The humor there is great.
/pol/ /v/ and especially the yummy /d/.

Also:
Currently playing Diablo 2. (Such a good ass game)
 
Looking at some ideas on a GBA RPG project and what's possible with the hardware from a modern context.

  • Perspective 3D, rotating world map
  • Parallax scrolling battle scenes
  • Up to 4 players controlling party members in battle (support wireless adapter?)
  • Balloon message boxes
  • Shadows
  • Half-tile movement
  • Wavy water reflections
  • Random weather
  • Time of day (Real time clock if available, otherwise on an in-game cycle)
  • Configurable screen type (GBA, SP - default if DS BIOS detected, TV)
  • Bonus enhancements with compatible flash carts SD file systems (Voice acting? FMV videos? Higher quality music? Mod support?)
  • Sub pixel quality bitmap artwork (when available)
  • PC connectivity of some kind via GameCube USB adapter (maybe multiplayer with a future PC version or an online network system?)
  • GameCube Player gamepad rumble support

EDIT: It would be very interesting to build custom tracker software for producing audio that advantage of the full-range of audio options on the GBA. Games on that system traditionally would either use Gameboy audio for music, PCM for sound effects, or PCM for music, Gameboy audio for sound effects, or entirely PCM (in the worst case scenario, entirely Gameboy!).

It would be cool to make a tracker that lets someone make a single music track use both Gameboy and PCM in it. Not sure what the tangible benefit would be - PCM can emulate the Gameboy audio "good enough" so going entirely PCM is probably still acceptable, but maybe the cleaner Gameboy sound will actually come through and be noticeable.
