Wow. Lot of trolls today. I would answer you guys but I have to get ready to leave town to visit my parents. But then again most of you are too pathetic for my notice. Like the buzzing of a fly caught in a spiders web. Just making noise in the vain attempt that someone will hear you and a miracle will occur. I might have some time left this evening though. So please entertain yourselves until then.

heh heh heh. No. My mind is already far too bazaar for me to try and alter it with 'experimentation'. I'm just trying to live my life by a rule I set for myself when I was a kid. "Never grow up, no matter how old you get" As long as you retain the childlike outlook of wonder at the world, you can do anything and still be responsible. I've been happy with it. I think other people would be too. It also helps if, after buying something that is not required to continue living, by saying, "I got a new toy, YAY!" I convinced my mother to do that and she admits that it is a lot more fun when you say it.

Heh. I'm 22. I'm trying to finish collage and get a job before I start making pitches to software companies. Or, if something unprecidented happens and the Never-Gonna-Happen-Chance of someone reading this board thinks that my stuff is good enough, then I would go right for a job. But basically, I just spent my years observing trends in gaming, listening to what the fans want, what types of games go under for what reasons, and basically create games that would entice me as a gamer. I place a lot of value on my own Gamer-Sense-Tingle when I think up an idea. I've come up with some good ideas on doing fake info leaks to propaganda sites, exclusive interviews with people who actualy have the trust of the average gamer, and other ideas. Basically, when I think of what kind of games I want to make, I think of what emotion or concept I would be a driving force behind it. (Just so you know, I have named all these games but I do not wnt to reviel them here at the moment) For the first RPG I decided upon 'Family' as the main concept, which leads to a war to join two different worlds together. In this game, both the Main character and the villain are really nice guys. They both want only what is best for the world and a complete family. But they think of both those things in a completely different way. Therefor there is a planet changing conflict between them. The second RPG I have been developing is based on "Self-Loathing". The Main character was once the strongest man in the world, and still is. But one day he was caught of guard by pure cicumstance and the one thing in his life that made him a good man was lost to him. Suffering from wounds that should be fatal he and others who eventually feel similar losses work to kill the main enemy, not for justice, but for revenge. This concept really strikes my heart, because Ihave already plotted out about a dozen different scenes to show how deep a person can feel the loss of what they cherish most, and how that rings with them forever. But what I am most proud of, is the idea that, in hit dreams, the main character remembers what he had, and then when he wakes up he has to remember all over again that he has lost it forever. For the monster hunter series I have decided on the emotions of Lonelyness, Responsibility, and Doubt, in that order. Lonelyness, because he lost his only friend because of a mistake he made early on. As in, bloodily lost. He then closed himself off to keep it from happening again. But the night his friend died, he met 'the one' girl. True love found while he weeps on a bar stool with an untouched bottle of vodka in his hands. The rest of the game deals with Judgement Day, but more over with his coming to terms with himself and letting the woman he loves into his heart. Responsibility, because he exists. When he has a terrible dream that he was the center piece of a cultist ritual to consume the blood of an angel and gain the powers of god through drinking it in a special form he wakes up with the ritual wounds on his body and the loss of almost all his powers. Content to live a normal, non-death immenent life with the woman he loves, he tries to retire. But his sense of guilt and personal responsibilty for the disaster being perpetrated by those who stole his power drives him to duty once again. In the end, he finds that it really is his role in life to protect, instead of to wish for peace. Doubt, because he is not the only one. In the bible it says that angels mated with mankind and their offspring were special. Many people have the blood of the angels in them, and another one has the awakened power. But the pain associated with a power greater than he can shoulder has diven him to try and find an escape while preserving his life. If that can happen to one like him, would it happen to the main character? Has it already happened because he understand exactly what the second powerful being feels as he searches to escape a life of agony? And as for the Alien Samurai first, The Journey. His lord whome he loved more than his own life is dead. Killed. As much as he would like to die beside him, he cannot. As long as the killer is out there, he must search for him. His master must be avenged. It is not emotion that drives him, but truth. And end to the lie of assassination by disclosure of identitiy and finally, execution. But what happens when he finds the one responsible at the end of his Journey, and is not ready for the Truth he finds? Second Alien Samurai, Weariness. Much to his dismay the samurai still lives, and for some reason he cannot allow himself to die. He has not atoned to himself, but he holds no ambition anymore. One day he is ambushed, cut with a knife that should not exist. A knife that twists what it touches until it is no more. In desperation the samurai throws away his warping flesh, certain of the death to come from such an injury. But for some reason he cannot comprehend he is still struggling to live. Why does he feel the need to continue? Why was he targeted by what should not exist? And why is he being mocked by an old man from the shadows, that are just barely within his hearing? But more importantly, why does he want these answers when he had no desire to live? But against his desires, he is pushed forward, by something inside himself. And yeah. Those are the ones that I have thought of so far. As a great game maker once said (not verbatum), "When you make a game, you must have already created the game that continues it." I have taken that philosophy to heart. That is why I have not fleshed out a fourth game series, because in order for it to be a full series I need to have a greater knowledge of tradgedies that occured during the Cold War era. But hey, one day that project might go gold. Heh heh. I just realized I wrote a few pages on something that is completely unconnected to Star Wars. Sorry ^_^

Well, I can certainly understand the lazy part. Now. As for the "Spamming". I explained what I was doing in the very first post in this thread. It's purpose. I have also modified all my previous posts so that the only parts containing unneeded information were condensed into a single post label very clearly as a "Thank you post that does not contain any valuable information in it" after some other people complained, and rightly so I suppose. Perhaps you can take another look back to see if it meets with you requirments now about non-spamming, and then tell me if I was yet again incorrect about what you are talking about. I would like an answer though, as this discussion has intreaged me a little.

REG, no offense, but learn to use a capitol letter. The post you quoted was one of my original posts. I moved it to this one because people at the old one encouraged me to do so. And now, because you have used a quote that is non-conforming to the question you asked, I am confused by you. Therefor I cannot provide you with any answer. Please ask a clear question with a proper quote and I will give you the answer to the best of my abilities. And yes. I know it's Revan, because someone pointed it out on the old board after that post. I left it like that of purpose. Because I am lazy.

Aegis, since I have no intention of having this go on forever, how about this. I have already deleted half of my abrasive posts, simply because I do not like the way they reflect on me. If you delete all of your abrasive posts, I will delete the other half of mine and this topic can go back to normal (post deletion will include this post of course). That way it'll be like it never happened for the most part. And in the future, if we want to rumble we can create a new thread for it. Let me know your answer when you see this.

I would say I am really creative. Especially since I have been fleshing out ideas for...how many...7 games in 3 different game series for possible pitches to game designers. I can give info on characters and plots because I have this info Date Stamped already. But I won't unles someone asks me for it. The first series is best described as SquareEnix inspired RPG style, but following the myths of anchient Europe, including Quintessence, and a multi-dimensional universe to explain new chatacters and worlds with different rules of physics to them. I have the broad plot, character designs, combat and magic systems (including a bounty system) planned out for them already. This encompasses 2 games currently, and more when I get the planning for them done. The second series is a little harder to describe. Imagine that all the occult things we watch in bad movies are real. Image that the goverments and churches know about it. Image the governments made political deals with them. And image that the churches are hunting them. And that the public knows nothing. And also, imagine that there is one man, the 7th generation multiple with a 7 percent chance of exhibiting the powers of an archangel. Imagine that the church's hunting groups found him, raised and trained him. And image that every time he uses his powers he feels an equivalent amount of mental and physical pain, including wounds appearing on his body that coincide with turture methods (used by the church in the inquisition no less). That is the setting I have come up with for three games, each with their own hook. 3rd person fast paced action combat (sword and gun in conjuction) utilizing a combat system that allows fast grappling, using corpses and furniture as mobile shields, puzzle solving, instant power changing to fit different situations, and a penalty system for overusing your powers. (And before anyone says anything, I have never played a Devil May Cry game, so I have no clue if this is anything like one. This idea was influenced more by the Anime Hellsing than anything else, and that only in artistic vision) The third series is a little wierder (and that is saying something). Image Feudal Era Japan. Now, image that the people who inhabit this place, are all of an alien species. Five or more to be exact, each with their own god/dess that is responsible for their creation. Now image that there is a Pantheon Of Balance that keeps the planes of Heaven, Earth, and Hell in equal power (this of course is not revieled until late third game). Now, imagine that the main character is a hard core Samurai General who's master, the Emporer just died. Masterless, he becomes a Ronin. And as a Ronin, he is flawlessly used in a plan to install the Emporer's son as the new Emporer while killing off all that could defy his NEXT plan. The emergence of the peoples of Hell to settle the world they once lived on before being banished with their god. --Oh, and by the way, all the weapons and armors are high technology while eveything else is low tech. People still use plows and oxen, but spears unfold out of a cylinder and armor is stored in a light disk hidden under your clothing. And war machines are built into the bodies of giant beasts. I onlt have 2 games mapped out for this series so far. Oh, 3rd person combat adventure with instant weapon swapping for certain situations. Objective based missions with a randomizing element to them. Money and food requirments for surviving (meaning that in order to make ends meet between big jobs, you have to take minor jobs in local towns in exchange for food and board. A little bit of Seven Samurai influence there). This is the kind of imagination that I have :D

I have already edited my posts and condensed all my "thank you"s to a single post. Which will make it far easier for people to either read them, or if they don't wish to see them, skip them entirely. Even though you never suggested anything like that during you "tantrums" you were still the one that convinced me it was a good idea. Also I removed the "Biography stuff". As it usually turns out, writing something in public just because you are bored is not a good idea at all. So, after comments from multiple people, I understood and removed them. Sugi, sugi. If I felt like posting them in public I would. But thats not really relevent. I was just describing the feeling I got from them. I felt that it was only fair for me to thank them in public because they encouraged me in public. And thanking them infront of stangers as well as people who are familiar with them is a great jesture. It that a wrong thought? Sugi, sugi. Obviously you don't understand why I was acting that way. I did it because I knew it would make you angry. And it would keep you posting. So I could continue to mock you in this thread. And it worked. Don't hate the playah, hate the game. Sugi, sugi. Yeah. That was not very mature of me. But I have always been highly protective of others who are not there (or capable of) standing up for themselves. I've actually started fist fights over that. But most of the time I force the people to act like civilized folk instead. I'm already removing that, because I am ashamed of what I wrote. Sugi, sugi. Well, as a child of a Sicilian father I have been taught to meet aggression with aggression. If you had not had that bit of bite in that post, things would have gone a lot smoother. But that is just as much my fault as it is yours. Probably even more so. Sugi, sugi. Did I ever say I was? Nope. As a matter of fact, like I said earlier, I was goading you into making a fool of yourself. And now I am satisfied. I always win flame wars, because I always know how to manipulate the other person. To quote Brent Sienna of PvP, "You got Ninjaed" Have a good night's rest Aegis!

Okay. The reason why I included all the posts? I wanted to thank everyone by name on a more, 'one on one' basis. I can't help but feel that that kind of gesture is more heart warming than just saying "Thank you". And as for your possible reasons for my rereading them, you missed a fourth possible reason. Why do people looking at pictures of family vacations, or read love letters, or listen to songs they heard when the were happy? Because there are good memories and pleasant feelings associated with them. I reread them while I was reposting them because they give me a warm and fuzzy feeling inside myself, akin to that of the remembrance of affection from either a loved one or a stranger. And thats all I have for an explanation right now Aegis. But I'm certain your going to try and twist my words and intentions once again. After all, your the kind of person who has to cling to their self respect in such a way that ever experiencing any kind of arguementative defeat is devastating. That is why I am 100% confident that you are going to respond to this post with something like "HAHAHA! That is so self serving!", or possibly by calling me a lame-o or some such. I will be anxiously awaiting your response (but not really).

Thank you JMR. I will do so. I still have at least 3 subjects to cover on my own, but most of their content is pure conjecture. As such I will have to be careful about how I present my ideas and arguements. It will take a little time and a clear head to do that. And as of right now I have neither. I hope to experience yours and everyone elses patience in this. Domo Arigatou Gosaimashtah

You know Aegis, out of that whole thing, all I really feel the need to respond to (because it is simply not worth the time to write anything down about your other arguements, since I have answered them several times over already) is this. I included that because I felt it was an accurate description of you and your attitude. I decided to use a mature term because the words "a wah-wah-cwy-bwaby-snoty-snot-snot-snot-doody-head" would have been a little juvenial, and thus, mean. Thats not to say it is not an accurate term to use, but I didn't want to take the risk of offending you. Thats why I would never dream of calling you that. And BTW, you try living in constant, mind numbing, body ripping pain for two weeks. It'll seem like a big deal to you as well, I'm fairly certain.

Give me some credit! I left a link on GameFaqs for people to follow. I also told them to check for my gratitude. Also, after I figured out that I was going to be throwing a bunch of stuff in here that doesn't really matter at all I decided to make it Orange. Color coding the part that is not needed gives people the ability to see, and skip it if they want. As for why I put it in in the first place. I was bored. And whenever I write something it is always stream of conscousness and by the seat of my pants. Sure I'll revise it later if I have the mood to do so, but for the most part I write what I do on a whim based on the emotional flow that is running through me at the moment I am writing. And when I reread what I wrote before, some of the memories resurfaced so I just ran with them. Like I said before. I'm wierd. NOTE: I have now edited my previous entries to try and make them easier to read. And this entry itself has been modifies to reflect my efforts as well, while preserving the fact that I did a goofy job of my first attempt.
