What kind of Story you Like???

*CLAPS!*

Oh my GOD I laughed so hard! I totally agree with EVERYTHING you just said!

And what would a great side-character be without bad fanfiction? Nothin'.

You need to put that in your sig!

Woot, I am <3'd.  Maybe we really do need a Quote of the Week, or something.

...Can anyone point me in the direction of a fanfic starring the Wonder Chef, from Tales of Symphonia?  'Cause man, he's awesome.

Do any games have only one of what was listed? most games have elements of at least two.

That's precisely what I was talking about in a previous post:

Agh, you and your.... ambiguous choices...

Sthrattoff has used combined categories of plot and setting, as if they were differing genres of story.  It is possible for a game to be both science-fiction in nature and heroic.

Actually, I've never played a video game of any genre that didn't include any manner of heroism.

man, I didin't even read the second page, lol, i guess I jumped to click reply and get my thougts out when they were already said.

You haven't played Tetris? Or Super Tennis?

You know what else I like in, well, any kind of story? Crazy bizarre sci-fi psychological/dementia type shit. I love seeing characters lose their mind and slowly turn insane.


Clearly, I'm a fan of Evangelion.

RIGHT HERE MANG.

Thing is, I only got to watch bits and pieces of it, cuz blockbuster sucks. NEEDS MOAR INTERNETS. Probably do it this summer.

Neon Genesis Evangelion was awesome. I also agree that a shocking ending may serve a good purpose. Also having heroes with a deep psyche is very interesting to me. I like heroes who tend to do psyche self-analysis.

Yes, but psyche and self-analysis are different from eroticism, which is what Corvus Sangreal seemed to be saying.

Hehe, I have not said that it all must be connected with erotics. Perhaps I put it wrong, when saying that about erotics in first sentence. It  is only one of possible aspects for deepening psyche. I actually specially mentioned that because of poll's option - romance. And romance without little erotics in it is too dreamy and unrealistic for me, but opinions on that can vary of course. Self-analysis is great to familiarize chars with player, that way story will be more intriguing, and player will become attached, wanting to know more about what happens to this party, because if you are good in story writing, player will probably emotionally attach to them. Like in dnd, it is always more interesting and fun to play with players that made good job on their char's psyche, and if they really play like it.

Term eroticism for me is in the first place art. To make someone sexually aroused (with your clothes on, other than that it is mostly pornography) you can use special motions, words (mostly ambiguous) and such to invoke in someone desire, emotions, passion... It gives real power to romance. Because romance for itself is too dreamy, and some people will find aversion for it. Personally I like it, and most of my poetry is romantic. But never forget the power of sexuality for humans. Sex is the mankind's best way of pleasure. I understand that most of this forum consists of people younger than 16/17, so you probably won't be much impressed and/or introduced with artistic side of sexuality.

All good video games need humor... if I'm not laughing, or at least smiling, I'm not enjoying.



Still looking for a fanfiction starring the Wonder Chef.

what if your laughing at how bad their mapping is..or how bad the game is

That can be fun, too.


Have you ever played a game where the dialogue is seriously written in chatspeak?  With the characters and stuff saying
"ill dstroy u!!!!"

HAHA. *starts writing name to second game 'Chatspeek' The game of RTP and bad writing*

I guess some of you have played a game that had it all, romance, an average part of funny situations, pretty good story and all of that mixed in a way not to spoil the original pretty much "serious" gameplay? The name of the beast... Tales Of Phantasia, 4 Nintendo?

The guys and girls who wrote dialogs went even into something i had not yet encountered; at one point during a travel with a ship, the guy in your party asks you something like "ummm, she has a such good *CENSORED*, she probably also has a very sweet pu*CENSORED*..." well, until that scene i was assured that the game is without any funny elements...

MY OPINION (who cares!!) THAT A GOOD GAME HAS:
60% Serious Gameplay
20% Shocking Elements
10% Funny
(I doubt that a hero whose life is on stake smiles when fighting a dragon)
10% Romance
(And i doubt he gets "horny" when killing Goblins, or maybe he does?)

Hey!
Who said the NG Evangelion things here??
I



Very Like it! Concept of my project's story mostly based on it.

10% Romance
(And i doubt he gets "horny" when killing Goblins, or maybe he does?)

The game, The RPG game, is not all about killing goblins. That would be hack and slash game.
I mean, what freak of nature your char must be that his only joy is killing goblins??

Goblin was just and example,
well in D&D we have Dragon Slayers, whose only joy is to kill dragons.
Sex, Drugs and some Dragoon'ass whoopin!

I believe too much romance can truly spoil a game,
but we have some games which revolve all the time around
romance but still manage to provide excellent and unsurpassed gameplay.

I keep thinking your name says 'Amon Amerth"...the band

I keep thinking your name says 'Amon Amerth"...the band

The translators of the DeJap release of Tales of Phantasia have admitted that they exaggerated much of the dialogue, and most of the "suggestive" conversations never actually occured in the actual game.

Just putting that out there.

Well, anyways it was a good game!

Yeah...not the BEST tales game though.  I think Symphonia is the best that I have played so far ( and I don't own it...my fried does.  However, I played along to, as Genis and Rayne (?) so it was fun.)


I like Fantasy/romance/ serious stories.  I'm not the one who goes for humor-filled games.
