I was listening to some backwards themes before that, and then it hit me. We could visit the "nega-Chaosthroph" whenever we wanted by entering some portal on Orderos. You can visit any location on Chaosthroph, and maybe a new area or two has appeared, one of which would be the "secret" dungeon. Maybe we could thrown in "dimension hoppers" who aren't from Chaosthroph but are from the nega realm. They might reveal what's going on and what needs to happen, but they also happen to sell very nice stuff you can't get anywhere else! ....For prices in the millions of course.... As for how we "solve the problems," I can come up with that as we go. I'm also trying to devise a way for Dimitri to do the things he does. But I'm stuck between: 1. He hates Chaosthroph for some reason. (The war idea was probably his reasoning behind it, but if we drop that idea, I'm not sure what he'd have against Chaosthroph.) 2. He acquires an "ultimate, alien power" that slowly corrupts him as he goes. He used to be a nice kid on Orderos, but then he started to go mad when he got that power. (That could also explain his change into Shira Dimitri at the end.) 3. He's doing it for the lolz. But he didn't just come up with this entire plan on his notebook. No, he's been planning this for years. Manipulating the government, guiding Elyon's path, everything leads to what has been his grand scheme. Ultimately, I liked idea 2, because its not an idea that's "thrown in at the last minute." Its touched upon when we visit Dimitri's hometown. They say he used to be "such a good boy, but one day, he came back to the village with a different look in his eye. The poor boy was never the same." Although, Dimitri has convinced himself everything he does is completely his doing. The "alien" power assumes control when Dimitri's refusal to die becomes overpowering, and from there, he must be killed. I also was thinking the reason Chaosthroph was sent to the "nega-realm" was because of the "alien" power. Defeating Dimitri, and thus the power, was the only way to truly save Chaosthroph. I also had a small plotpoint that the first battle with Dimitri is unwinnable, and after we lose, we are sent to Orderos, and learn of Chaosthroph's disappearance. This happens just about right after we take care of/defeat the government. Basically, I'm working in reverse on the plot. Taking care of the ending and going backwards. ._. Ultimately, though, war or not, I still can't figure out why Dimitri, or whoever, would want Elyon's parents dead. Also, I hope you had a great Christmas, Hannukah(?) or whatever you celebrate. =)
Nice idea, A "nega-world" you say... Instresting! I like that! Let's have it that way!
I see. So, basically, if we create a "final" arc, it will be a mess of levels and items? EDIT: Ooh, I just got another idea. YouTube - Axel and Saix backwards When I heard that backwards theme, the idea that Chaosthroph gets cut off near the end of the game came to me. Instead, we have to enter some kind of realm and fix all the problems in the worlds. What I mean is, Dimitri does some crazy stuff, and removes Chaosthroph entirely from existence! But it's not gone, rather, its in another realm, or perhaps, its on "the other side." On Orderos, we need to save Chaosthroph before fighting Dimitri, and in this "nega-world" all the town themes and even the overworld theme is backwards. The sky is dark, the people are near lifeless, because they are eternally repeating their last day until the world ends. Going through each place to solve the problems, we eventually find that the only way to truly bring Chaosthroph back is to defeat Dimitri. And from there... well, use your imagination. How about that?
Instresting, It is very possible to do so... However... There's one small problem. I ... AM ... TOO ... DUMB!! I finally find the script needed but i have completely no damncrap idea how to use it, But i can make the game stories in just a single game! Though... Now here's another prblem i don't know how to fix. Item Limiter, If i would play Ralz's Story, He would have Elyon's items in his backpack from Elyon's Story, Which is beyond wierd! Damncrap with these scripts! I can only handle the simplier ones! But there's another solution, But then... Level Transfer, Gets in the way, I can make Character Stories in separate games! But i cannot fix that they have the same level in another one, It recries another advanced dumbcrap scripting i have no idea about. I can't say much on this one, It's either zat or either dat.
Okay, so basically, with the plot, you want it pretty simple, right? Abusing the fourth wall, that can be easier, like you said, the characters are aware they are in a video game. I should just rewrite this damn plot to make it far less confusing. EDIT: I got it! What if we split the game among multiple "versions?" Each one tackles a different character's story, and the final one is where it all comes together. Naturally, each individual game will rely solely on their character's story, and we don't really stray from them. The only problems with that, is how would we transfer data? It wouldn't be a problem if they were all individual games, since its basically five New Games with different stories. But the question stands. How could we transfer important data, like money and levels? That'd be kinda important... I'll think about this some more...
I want the Keyblade.
Actually, Skip the Teddybear, I don't have any icon of it. EDIT: I added in "Keyblade" instead.
Nope, But i'll include some! I'll think i'll aid in these. Teddybear Ban Hammer Wrench Lolipop How does these sound to you?
Ooh. Should be good. You got any joke weapons, by any chance?
Hey Ralz, I've being fixing a pair of bugs lately, And i start getting hang of things again, I founded alot of useful scripts, If not eyecandy that is! But everyone likes useless eyecandy! Another version will see the sunshine in afew days, This time... With more moves and other surprises! I have alittle preview on moves! ELYON "New Moves!" Lightspeed Slash and Oversword! RALZ "New Moves!" Cocaotic RAGE!! MEIGUMI "New Spells and Moves!" Electrifying Excitement!, Cherry Blossom, Rosen Barrier, Sunflower Fragrance, Zielregen and "How dare you!"! ALTHER "New Move!" Elemental Spellflinger! That's just a preview! More will come in the future!
Ah.
No, They're are also sprites that was included inside the RMVX, They're just recoloured as well.
Did you make that Elyon and Meigumi sprite, then?
Right, Seen them, The diffrence is that the Ralz Sprite is recoloured, So it's... PARTICUALLY not... well... the orginal, It's usual name is Ralph, But it doesn't even matter, It's named Ralz, It has brown hair instead of orange and the outfit is mostly blue, End of story. :3
Ouch... I came across these videos while working on the plot. YouTube - RPG Maker VX - scripted battle system YouTube - Cliche Quest RPG Demo YouTube - Cliché! - RPG Maker VX YouTube - RPG Maker VX-Boss Battle YouTube - RPG Maker VX-ATB Spin Command Test Battle YouTube - Rpg Maker VX Overdrive System YouTube - Mode7 For RPG Maker VX YouTube - RPG Maker VX World Map (Seven Worlds) I love how the Ralz sprite is used as the main character for most of these. xD
