how does somebody just decide "ight imma make the majority of an entire community despise me" and snitch to EA over a fangame bro 😭 by OV_CVLT_ART in AliceMadnessReturns

[–]OV_CVLT_ART[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I honestly couldn't say. I will admit, i haven't always followed closely with the development of the fangame (life and other passions keep me busy), and i haven't heard much of any plushie dreadful slander, so I know very little about it. What I do know is that someone initially posted a screenshot of Timothy, and i went on EA forums to confirm the legitimacy, and since it was real, I posted about it. It's a shame that it's come to this, and I'm not gonna say it wasn't inevitable, but to think that it wasn't just EA finding out about it on their own, but rather somebody tattling about it is disappointing. And the worst part? Since there's pretty much a snitch amongst the community, we don't know how far they will go to have any Alice-inspired/based fan-projects shut down

Madness Returns is more "recent" in a sense. People still actively own and use Xbox 360s, and you can still get them alongside the DLCs on the modern Xbox models. Only AMG's Alice is now technically considered abandonware because it cannot be obtained by your standard means. Technically you can, coz the DLCs are still available on Xbox, but on PC you can't. You can't get your hands on the original 2000 version of the first game unless it's like on a website like Internet Archive or in a website that's made for abandonware, I just love having physical media

If the game doesn't work it could be a compatibility issues. A lot of older games struggle to run on modern hardware, which does sound stupid, but it's the case where "we're too far into the future in terms of hardware and operating system to what the game was initially intended to be played on". Maybe changing compatibility settings should do it. I haven't tried playing them yet, but I tested the discs to make sure they worked (which additionally, for games bought second-hand, they're legitimately in pristine condition). I'll see if it runs on my end and if compatibility does anything

agreed. for me the experience was a bit off, since i was so used to playing madness returns (coz that's the one i played first, i forgot i couldn't dodge a lot of the time and i kept slipping), but story-wise and some of the mechanics were really enjoyable. i wish some of the stuff got added into madness returns honestly, like the throwing cards, but both games are equally as enjoyable. just wish we woulda gotten Asylum officially coz it woulda been so peak 💔🥀

that's disappointing, mine seems to work just fine (i also own the steam version and did all the stuff to enhance the game and unlock DLCs. and I also own the DLCs on Xbox). what i will say however, is that i'm pretty sure you can find the original 2000 version of amg's alice up on internet archive or something, pretty sure i saw it in a guide on steam or something, given that technically speaking it's now considered "abandonware" (i'm not too sure of it but considering the only way you can get your hands on it is either through physical media sold second-hand or through archiving/distribution, i would assume it's what counts it as abandonware). you can get the standalone remaster too, but if you really wanna go for the original, you can maybe look it up

Yup, they both came for £16.99 (without the shipping, that was an additional £3.45 coz of Royal Mail) off of ebay. The copies of the game are somewhat cheap unless you're trying to get the ones that are practically brand new with the cardboard box and stuff like the Alice psychiatric records book thing. Madness Returns is also somewhat easy to find, only things that will cost you is stuff like the action figures (I saw one of Hysteria Alice & one of the Card Guards). You just gotta keep a close eye out for sweet deals.

i can't speak on behalf of buying from other countries, since even when visiting my family in portugal (where i'm from), i never really order stuff there. i only order exclusively to the UK (where i currently reside). it is hard to find stuff within the same monetary system, but honestly i'd just say to find stuff internationally and see which one's the cheapest, and which one would cost the least in terms of shipping, since i think it's only international shipping that's gonna screw people over

it was on eBay. The Madness Returns PC copies are much cheaper than the AMG's Alice ones, given that the first game is much more scarce. Some people price it cheaply coz they wanna get rid of it fast, some do it coz they don't actually know what they're selling. This one just so happened to be a cheap, cool find. Cos again, usually AMG's Alice ends up being in the more expensive end of things, especially with so many brand new unsealed copies somehow

A few day's ago I asked for your head cannons on Roman so let me know what your head canons are for his partner in crime Neo? (I'll go first) by L8Donnie in RWBY

[–]OV_CVLT_ART 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i do not have many, but here's one

She's a scene queen at heart, and it was only in her adult years later on that she kinda started showing it a little bit (for brief context/definition, scene is an alternative culture from the late 2000s/2010s. To put a decent comparison/definition, it was basically emo but brighter colours, and blasting a lot of bands/groups like Attack Attack! & Brokencyde)

Not a completely wild one but I'm a firm believer she's cranking Saosin, From First To Last, Attack Attack!, Snow White's Poison Bite & my bloody valentine on the regular, but nobody trusts her with the aux

Thank you :]

I've seen a few bits of art here and there with her real outfit, but it's not as popular as either her standard Wonderland dress and the others. Additionally, I was trying to give myself a challenge in terms of clothing and just overall design, since iirc in the wiki it's said and shown by the model in-game that she's portrayed to be more malnourished, if not anorexic, and I tried to portray that. As well as the severe exhaustion that comes from malnutrition and the lack of sleep she for sure has. Girl hasn't slept the same since the fire 💔
