Title: Help With Title >.<
Post by: yarow12 on December 31, 2010, 09:39:21 PM
I need help with picking a name for my RPG. It will involve two characters who venture to an island in search of something (perhaps a legendary sword or simply treasure). On the island, they get psychically contacted by C.C. from Code Geass. She is trapped in a dungeon somewhere on the island and the Player seeks her out for saving.
In the dungeon they encounter a witch and a warlock (perhaps the ones who captured her), some Futa-Chicks (yes, this game will have hentai), and Orcs (hentai!).
When they get back home, they will realize that an hour on the island is three days outside of its range. When they get back home they will have a Gothic 3 moment. By this I mean they will realize that the Orcs (and Futa-Chicks) have taken over and enslaved everyone almost everywhere. There will be rebels, slaves, and mercenaries (slave hunters).
The father of the male main character will be a legendary warrior. The parents of the female main character will be the King and Queen of an empire or whatever. They too will be enslaved (the dad might die). C.C. will probably come with them on their travels.
So far, the only title that I have managed to come up with is "A World Lost".

@NAMKCOR
Not sure if you're serious or not, but no thanks. What gave man the idea of lighting a plant on fire and inhaling it's smoke, anyway?

Think what you will. I personally find the first five minutes to be pretty darn funny. The only problem that I'll have with it is presenting it on the internet. How many people are going to play a game with images of sex in it? *sigh*

This is the internet. Sex isn't your problem. Two dimensional sex involving a squicky niche fetish? I doubt anyone's gonna get into that.

Also, I love how you stress that no one steal your idea, and yet you're ripping a character from Code Geass. Sorta ironic.

Let's break down your idea here, shall we? :hmmm:

Code: [Select]
- Involves character from an Anime. [Been done before]

 - Premise is to save said character. [Hurp durp]

 - "Mom and Dad" = King/Queen. [....]

 - Gothic 3 moment? [Hurrrr]

 - Randomly thrown in hentai [FFFFFFFF]

 - Main character + Father = LEGENDARY WARRIORZ [Yeah... When hasn't that been done?]
 
 - You think this idea is worth stealing.

State your opinions, but don't be an asshole about it. When you die, people are just gonna piss on your grave.
Also, this is my first RPG. Whether this becomes something worth playing or not, do not discourage me. It'll only make you stronger (lol).

1) Many games have characters from anime and other video games and still are considered great video games.
i.e. Soul Calibur (Darth Vader, Yoda, Spawn, Link), the Final Fantasy franchise (Cid, Moogles, Ultimate Weapon, Behemoth, like every freaking monster), the Kingdom Hearts franchise (OMG!), etc.

2) So what? It's common and many people tolerate it. If you don't like that in a video game, make love to yourself and don't play it. The developers and producers really don't care if you like it. Neither do I.

3) So?

4) Ever heard of a "and the bad guy still lives" ending?

5) It's not random. I plan on making the futa-bitches and orcs the main problem with what's going on in the game world. So what?

6) Ever heard of Dragon Ball Z?

Honestly, go fuck yourself. That's how this random insignificant cell feels about you, another random insignificant cell. Fucking Alien Genotype.

His point was to prove your idea is very unoriginal. All your pathetic rebuttal did was severely reinforce his point by literally giving examples of each point. You're an idiot and you clearly didn't think about what the point of his post was before you raged and wrote your own. Funny that it made your idea of a game worse.

1-Also, your first point about 'great' games that use cameo (even though he specifically said anime) is null. 1) Soul Calibur sucks and aren't RPGs. So even if you argue that you think it's good, it doesn't relate to how your game uses a random anime character in an RPG. 2) Mentioning Final Fantasy kind of makes you a dumbass. Oh no, FF9 references things from FF4 or in any combination of references. They're from the same titles and aren't random anime. Just some cameos. 3) Kingdom Hearts is based on its cameos. The whole premiss is about exploring and fixing the worlds from Disney. Take away the cameo, you have no game.

2- Points out that it's unoriginal, again.

3- Points out that it's unoriginal, again.

4- I don't know what this means by either of you. I don't watch your random anime stuff.

5- It's random because it's not necessary. Remove the hentai images or whatever, and (if you actually could even think of an original idea) it would still hold perfectly.

6- Points out that it's unoriginal, again.

I see what you're saying. Tough, I'm still planning on using the hentai images. I'll see if the game turns out to be a hit or not. Everyone's got their own tastes. Some people love random comedies like Lucky Star, Furi Curi, and Girlchan in Paradise. Others don't.
I just really don't want my spirit crushed before I even finish the game. Understand? I'd rather that happen after people have actually given it a chance.

Nice sig by the way. Who made it?

Understood. I don't know what any of those 'random comedies' are that you mentioned but I would imagine somebody has to love them. Also, this is an idea and sounds like you've done absolutely no work on this yet. I'm sure you'd muuuuuch rather appreciate such harsh critics after you actually put any hard work or time into this project. Best that you know we all hate it now. If you can find 2 people to some how support this idea (and their points of liking it not being because of the hentai) then please, by all means, come back and try and argue how good of an idea this is using their points or something. I doubt they'd be good points, and would be annihilated immediately, but at least you'd have someone supporting you.

Also, I forget who made the sig. It's a series of posters that I wish I owned. Found it using StumbleUpon.

I have to officially come up with the plot. Everything so far has just been popping into my head randomly since I started making what would be a simple island with random events that might actually turn out to be download worthy (practice with making RPG's)

This isn't the Sewers. If you have nothing constructive to say, don't post. (I'm looking at you Strike)

That said, the idea is pretty contrived and unappealing to me. Just remember that there are literally hundreds of RM games on sites like this one - when someone is looking to play a game, you kind of have to make your project seem somewhat appealing in order to stand above the rest. The basic premise is cliche RPG fare, and a vague suggestion of orcs raping some random character from Anime X really only makes it worse in my opinion.

I don't say this to discourage you or crush your spirit - ultimately, RPG Maker is a game; play it the way you want to and make the game you want to make. You'll enjoy it and your friends will probably enjoy it too. As long as that is all you are going for, then what a bunch of strangers think should make no difference. But don't expect everybody to like it if you decide to share it with an online community such as this one. If that is important to you, then it actually is constructive that you know right away that people dislike the idea.

As for a title: titles are important and really should be chosen carefully; it is the first thing a person will see when browsing, and it should be creative enough that it encapsulates the themes behind the game - it isn't really something you can get a bunch of strangers to choose for you based on a half-page synopsis. I would suggest you think about it after reading these two topics: http://rmrk.net/index.php/topic,29558.0.html & http://rmrk.net/index.php/topic,32255.0.html.

Post by: yarow12 on January 03, 2011, 04:43:19 AM
Thanks, but believe it or not I actually checked those topics too and they made it even harder for me to make a title. @.@
"A World Lost" is the one that I am using until I get further into the development.

This game is coming from my tastes.
Auto-Tune the News: Bankers' Song - We Didn't See It Comin  (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-fTh2GffJsM)
Girlchan in Paradise Episode 1 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_CLgpd241Aw)
TFS Abridged Parody Episode 18 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bsPujgqpx8w)

Many of you will probably definitely not try it now. XD

The premise is a bunch of random shit piled together for no reason. it is a pile of shit.

Sure everyone deserves some constructive criticism, and here it is.

here's a quick rewrite of the premise that would not be completely fucking stupid.

 It will involve two characters who venture to an island in search of something (perhaps a legendary sword or simply treasure). On the island, they get psychically contacted a goddess. She is trapped in a dungeon somewhere on the island and the Player seeks her out for saving.
In the dungeon they encounter a witch and a warlock who have imprisoned her and control a great army of some Amazons, and Orcs.
When they get back home, they will realize that an hour on the island is three days outside of its range.  By this I mean they will realize that the Orcs have taken over and enslaved everyone almost everywhere. while many years have passed There will be rebels, slaves, and mercenaries (slave hunters).
The father of the male main character will be a legendary warrior. The parents of the female main character will be the King and Queen of an empire or whatever. They too will be enslaved (the dad might die). The goddess (who's character design is based loosely off of CC (ps: herp derp)) will probably come with them on their travels.

the goddess can basically be the white mage of the party the female the black mage and the dude can be the physical attacker. or something like that.

keep your porn if you want but it's completely fucking unnecessary, and only serves to make your game a joke.

I find it hilarious how my post pointed out things I thought were unoriginal and the most insulting thing I said was: "You think this idea is worth stealing" Compared to what others have said, I was tame about it, yet I received the rage rebuttal.

Well, good luck making a niche game. I'm pretty sure Animefan will be one of the only few people that will enjoy it.

Constructive Advice Here (http://rmrk.net/index.php/topic,32116.0.html)

I've already read NAM's How To. Thanks anyway.

Glad to know you kinda ignored most of my advice then.

Your game world is horribly contrived, if you're making an RPG, the world needs to be cohesive, needs to make sense, and needs to flow.  You really need to look at things like that, rather than just throwing together the things you like.  Even FLCL made sense and had a cohesive plot, regardless of how over-the-top it got.  There was still something that drove it, and made sense within the rules established by the show.

Nothing you presented makes sense.

An RPG's story is its backbone, and it's what drives it.  More than the Turn Based System, more than Character Designs, more than Music, it's the story.  It's the role you play.  Players thrust into your world have to be drawn in to an organic, living, breathing world.

Players in your world would be constantly reminded of its absurdity and disjointedness, this is not what you want.

Please do yourself a favor and rethink your game.  If you want to make a porn game, make a porn game, but don't mask it as an epic adventure RPG.  In fact, porn in copious amounts only serves to take away from a plot.  Look at how movies have maybe 1 intimate scene between a key romance.  It punctuates it.  If you want sex to be a big plot point in your game, there needs to be moments without it.  To compare.  If a game is all explosions, the explosions get boring.  You need plenty of moments without explosions.  You need contrast.  Black looks darker next to White.

Also don't start working on a game without having the full plot thought out, or at least the main plot points.  You'll end up with plotholes and even more disjointedness.

I can tell you haven't thought this through, and that's not a good start.

Yeah, I hear you all. But understand that I wasn't hearing most of you before my flaming of Grey Fox. Nearly everything that was said just made me more pissed off.

I plan on making the plot later this week. But first, I need to get some relaxation in my life. Being suicidal is surprisingly dangerous. :P

I'm sorry, But I have to be a prick regarding the little list you made, because Boba Fail to say it clearly:

Quote
1) Many games have characters from anime and other video games and still are considered great video games.
i.e. Soul Calibur (Darth Vader, Yoda, Spawn, Link), the Final Fantasy franchise (Cid, Moogles, Ultimate Weapon, Behemoth, like every freaking monster), the Kingdom Hearts franchise (OMG!), etc.

Have you ever heard of the word 'Promotion' & 'Fan Service'? Because technically this was made for either because said 'company' or 'group' had putted money in the development of these games or movies & such, You are not but doing it out of ignorance no matter how much we're warning you that people will look down upon your project for that, noobs will only go fan mode while veterans & professionals will look at you with eerie eyes.

Quote
2) So what? It's common and many people tolerate it. If you don't like that in a video game, make love to yourself and don't play it. The developers and producers really don't care if you like it. Neither do I.
No, they do care, otherwise they'd loose money. Second, it';s not common, Name me 50 games That do that? Amuse me . . . if you don't care, then fuck off, no one wants to play a shitty game with an asshole producer for the heck of it.

Quote
3) So?
So do your homework before biting at us like that.
Quote
4) Ever heard of a "and the bad guy still lives" ending?
Where the fuck you mention this? And no, it's only done when theres:
A) Bad Guy Redeems himself
B) The Bad Guy is captured and his fate is obviously imagined to be either executed or be in prison for all of eternity
C) The asshole lost everything and it's obvious his fate won't be pretty.

Quote
5) It's not random. I plan on making the futa-bitches and orcs the main problem with what's going on in the game world. So what?
Your Taste of Fetishes Disturbs me greatly . . . .

Quote
6) Ever heard of Dragon Ball Z?
The fuck is this have to do with Anything here? So I say . . . I point your whole project is unoriginal. . .

====================================================

With that crap out of the way . . . I'd say revise your idea, unless your basing your game with images from another game you download it makes sense, thou drop the sex-raping, unless what you wanna make is a porn game and not an rpg . . .whatever moves your boat.

Any other thing I say had already been said by technically everyone else. Now I leave while I recover some lost time from this post.

I fail to. In my defense, I was only being an asshole (though, I don't think of it that way) as a retaliation to everyone else. In particular, Grey Fox. Accept that and be careful what you accuse people of being when don't even know them. Who amongst us has not gotten mad before? Who amongst us hasn't taken it out on the last person to anger us? I certainly have.

I'll be taking time off of this game's development. I just can't put it on my shoulders while I have school crap to deal with. It's not healthy.
