Youve obviously never seen a good game. Go check out Quintessene.
From what I've seen, he's been given a chance and chosen not to seize it.nazra7":1a5k0ru8 said:I guess you're right. But what it doesnt deserve to be is treated like it needs to be buried into the forums until it does. I'm just saying give him a chance, even if he releases a demo and it's not good, that doesn't mean it's over.
I dunno, maybe he's able to take a more objective look at a game that's not his and see the suckiness in the games of others, while blind to his own epic badness. Critique is weird like that. Furthermore, I'm going to go out on a limb and assume that you would have something to say about someone's terrible art, even if you yourself aren't that stellar of an artist.Brosek":1a5k0ru8 said:Anyone else find it ironic that someone like xeph is bitching about sucky games? Take your own advice.. fine line between constructive criticism and having sand in your vagina.. guess what side of the line you are on? Susie.

Sorry if it came off as dissing your art. I was just trying to allude to the phrase "I don't know art, but I know what I like," without using a cliche. What I'm getting at is this: I'm an amateur writer, and I could never dream of being published. However, I believe I'm totally entitled to critique a story that makes no sense, and correct someone's grammar. Just because someone isn't great at something doesn't mean that they can't tell when something's not very good.Brosek":12wmhd80 said:words words words

I'm not sure you're aware that this thread is effectively an advertisement for your game. If you don't present something well, odds are that not many people will be interested. If you type like a brain-damaged chimp when trying to convince me to play your game, I'm going to assume that you have the same lazy, half-assed attitude toward creating anything. By the poor punctuation in your one line of dialog, the barren maps, and the defensive attitude toward criticism, I'm inclined to believe that this assumption is correct.zech04":1lobullm said:Sic Semper Tyranosaurus":1lobullm said:Sorry if it came off as dissing your art.

Since when have MMOs had plot development?GhastlyMasquerade":2764nup9 said:The story was like what? Two lines long?!, No character, environments or plot development. Not even basic concept art, no storyboard.
Ugh...

The fact that you can play online in no way excuses him from actually putting something in the damned game, or even in the thread. WoW has a lush, vast, ever-changing world full of bloodsucking quests that take at least an hour to complete. People put their kids through college making sure that WoW and most other MMOs remain addictive. You can have your very own character created from many, many, many different parts. A game made in RMXP can't realistically provide an experience quite like WoW, partially due to graphical restrictions.Actingman00":2etintot said:Since when have MMOs had plot development?GhastlyMasquerade":2etintot said:The story was like what?

And even characters play teensy minor roles. I still don't know any major characters in World Of Warcraft and I played it for a year and a half.
