Welcome to my world.

I work with people, but I don't talk to them, its lonely.

I live at home with my parents, but I don't have much of anything in common with them so I don't really spend much time with them, and they either dislike or don't care about the things i like so i spend my time at home alone, when I try to talk to them about the stuff I spend my time doing they say stuff like why aren't you spending time looking at stuff for what you want to do with your life.

You know what maybe I should look into trying to send myself into a coma so I don't have to worry about the outside world anymore, maybe that'll get them to get off my [tornado fang]ing case.

So yeah... Its lonely.

Original / Re: Why does everyone like Mega Man 3 so much?

« on: August 30, 2013, 07:50:01 AM »

Mega Man 9 easily has the best weapons of the series, mostly because they were far superior than the Mega Buster in practically every situation i.e. they were overpowered. The stage design aside from Wily Stage 1 never forced you to use any, which even then I don't see why this would qualify as a bad thing. That said, Mega Man 9 actually did have brilliant stage design and enemy placement which encouraged you to use your special weapons over your buster, and if you didn't notice this, I'd encourage you to replay Mega Man 9. Mr. Perfect and good Time Attack scores emphasize this point well.

The weapons are "The Best" huh?

Laser Trident= Basically a stronger megabuster, okay this one is good.
Black Hole Bomb= Slow moving projectile that sucks things in, it can be useful but its more conditional.
Magma Cannon=Atomic Fire that shoots in three directions, wow totally original 10/10 capcom, I never found any use for it.
Concrete Shot= Conditional, forced usage for stupid lava lasers in Wily 1 and stupid lasers in Wily 4, runs out of ammo too quickly to be of much use.
Hornet Chaser= Good for getting items and killing Mr. Angry Rock but not much else.
Tornado Blow= Forced Usage in Wily 1, can damage fire dragon miniboss but its not that great.
Diamond Barrier/Shield/whatever= Its a stupid shield. Good for telly grinding but [tornado fang] barriers.
Plug Ball = Okay it hits enemies on the ground guess what its not good for much else.

The stage design should not under any circumstance force you to use special weapons, you should always be able to rely on your buster since that is the most handy weapon in the game. That's not fair to people who either use said weapons to kill enemies then you're [tornado fang]'d because you don't have enough to move on. It wasn't a good idea in Megaman 1 with the Magnet Beam (Though the Weapon energy respawned IIRC, so it wasn't too big of a loss but if you didn't pick it up before hand you would be screwed.), it wasn't a good idea in Megaman 2 with the Boobeam traps (Not level design but its still a [parasitic bomb] boss.)

You say just Wily Stage 1, but Wily Stage 2 had those bullshit jumps underwater where you either needed to be pixel-[tornado fang]ing-perfect, use concrete shot or Rush Jet (If you could get rush to you without him teleporting away because of how [tornado fang]ing narrow those spaces were), or taste death by spikes.

And again, Wily 4 and the lasers you have to block with concrete shot. Unless you just suggest I run through them and take damage.

I'll say it again, Megaman 9 is terrible, the level design is weak, the game is basically photographic proof of capcom giving head to megaman 2 because its hailed as the best for some unexplainable [tornado fang]ing reason. Its totally cool that some people enjoy it but I don't get how people would want more games like it because it honestly isn't very fun.

Roleplay / Re: RP Character Discussion: Love Interests

« on: August 30, 2013, 07:29:06 AM »

Back when I was in my so-called "Cringe Era" I didn't really use love interests for anything but that, somebody for RMZX to lust over/protect or something. Needless to say, it bugged pretty much everybody else that I RP'ed with, well, that and using established characters as love interests.

Anyway, when it came time to start doing Wilypocalypse, I decided against using a love interest at first, since I didn't want to fall into my old habits. But I decided on adding Akai relatively early, though since I didn't want to make her into another waifu thing, I avoided giving her a name or design. That's what led to her being the character she was, I let somebody else create her design and her name. And, after her "helpless girl" personality was essentially overwritten, she became sort of her own character, I did eventually take her out of the story because I didn't want her just hanging around with nothing to do. After her original death I tossed the idea of introducing another love interest, but I quickly scrapped those plans and instead focused on re-introducing Akai into the story, with her trying to do something besides be a cheerleader. This culminated in her breaking up with Josei. I'm not sure whether or not I'll bring them back together or if I'll have them just stay friends. Or hell, I'm not sure if I'll do something stupid like introduce another love interest.

As for RPM-Vengers, Josei/Batguy has no actual love interest. He just pines over pretty women. I'd like to imagine his character as in the slump that I was in a few years ago where he has waifu on the brain and is reluctant to do anything about that.

Roleplay / RP Character Discussion: Love Interests

« on: August 30, 2013, 05:10:58 AM »

Quickie's thread on Tragic Backstories got me thinking on something that pops up often in said backstories and is also a prevalent force in pretty much all RPs, Love Interests.

What are your thoughts on love interests? Do you see them as simply romantic foils or as characters with more than just "I love so-and-so" to them? What kind of process do you use when developing a love interest? Do you base them off of an existing character or are they original?

I'm sure there was more I meant to put here, but for now this will work. Anyway, I hope I can create some discussion.

Oh, this wasn't brought up earlier but there's going to be a collectors edition of WWHD.

The only difference is that it comes with a statue of Ganondorf, It'll be $60 and its coming to both America and Europe.

American one is Gamestop Exclusive, go figure.

Posted on: August 29, 2013, 03:57:32 PMOh, apparently the release date for Wind Waker HD being September 20th only applies to the version included on the Limited Edition bundle and the Digital release. The physical release is still October 4th.

I guess they're trying to get the people who are impaitent to buy the digital copy but I find that to be a poor business choice by not having both on the same day.

God this Red Wiimote is sexy as hell.

Why doesn't NoA want to sell these again? I mean now I have to give money to Nintendo of Europe or a seller on eBay for a Red Classic Controller.

Still... $41 for an authentic Red Wiimote and Nunchuk (with some minor damage) is a pretty good deal.

Oh yeah, VLR is $25 for a while, up till September 13th or something, like a promotional price or something for now.

And Natsume (Harvest Moon guys) wants people to suggest what their next VC game on the 3DS should be. Maybe some other companies could do the same thing.

Also, buy one street fighter and get the other two half off (for like a week or two). So at least you're not paying $24 for three copies of the same game but still. The EU version is "Buy two street fighters, get the last one free." so it still comes out to about the same.

Posted on: August 22, 2013, 11:31:25 PMWario Land 3 is out this week... Finally.

More than one game a week, which is a maybe at that. Please Nintendo? Its not like we ask for much.

Roleplay / Re: Character Creation Discussion: Traumatic Histories and Good Taste

« on: August 29, 2013, 08:33:21 AM »

Hmm, never really thought about stuff like that.

Though I guess in the sense of my characters both Josei and Josei-Prime have lost people close to them, Josei's loss being a female friend/lover who had an accident (Said person is who Akai's appearance is modeled after.), Prime's (And Keco's by extension) loss being the mutilation of two of his robots, whom were considered as children or sisters depending on which person it was.

Though honestly, I don't try to force drama. I only try to do it when I feel it could be done well. Like with RPM-vengers there's no need to go over the "MY PARENTS ARE DEADDD AHGHGAH" stuff with Batguy because he's not meant to be a serious character.

Poses don't necessarily need to be floating or jumping.

But yeah, if you absolutely need stands get Act 4.

Act 5 are more meant for larger figures and models.

Oh boohoo, Nintendo's making a budget model of their insanely popular handheld that I'll never have to buy because the original and XL models are still widely available and won't be phased out by this.  Cry me a river.

Sounds accurate.

I'd prefer it without the "gold" filter, but it does look nice, regardless.

We'll only know if its a gold filter if a Japanese boxart comes up with the image in full color.

And knowing how Japan loves color, that's probably what's going to happen.

EDIT: This is a photoshopped image but it looks kind of what I would expect a color version to be.

Thats a lot of scars.

Personally I'm glad I've never had something happen to me where I'd need stiches or something. If something like that did happen, I'd rather suffer with it and let it kill me instead of getting surgery.

That's how uncomfortable with surgery.
