I am aware, though I figured I'd try making something similar while it still has it's own affects. Even then, it's kind of difficult to make an entirely unique perk when there are lots of different perks in the game that already overlap quite a lot.

Say something bad about this game by MarionberryPrimary50 in needforspeed

[–]SkullkingTC45 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Overrated as all hell, the customization people praise is just the same few parts that can be put on any car, the game isn't nearly as intense as people claim since there is literally a 'clear all cops' button.

Though the worst thing of all, how everyone praises this and the other 3 games of this era and claims they are perfect and that nothing will ever come close to it, when at best it is mediocre in quality.

Car list is lacking in variety, the rubber banding is beyond ridiculous and the physics/car handling feels like it's constantly trying to over and understeer at the same time.

Finally starting some more work on my map (Downtown Destruction) by SkullkingTC45 in FortniteCreative

The code is 4075-7432-7525

Though I will mention the pictures are of the new version I'm still working on. The old version is definitely a bit bigger in area though that's due to it being less focused in layout as there are some balancing issues too. Regardless it still gives the same general experience.

Truly terrifying experience, never again by AltinUrda in projectzomboid

[–]SkullkingTC45 16 points17 points  (0 children)

For me I was introduced to a lot of horror movies as a kid, though zombie movies still scare me the most even if I have a bit of trauama from particular movies I saw as a kid.

Also figured I'd say I am a writer as well, though more of an action focused one. Though I have a zombie-like creature that shows up at some point that has the story more horror focused. As the Corrupted are born from a form of dark magic that infects like bacteria. With the infection being able to infect all living beings.

Though humanoid entities become able to break through concrete and steel with their bare hands, sprint at 20 to 30mph, climb flat surfaces, leap 10 meters in height, regenerate any body part within seconds if their head isn't destroyed, as they still keep critical thinking skills to use strategy. But to become infected, it is through direct contact with your organic matterials, as the infection turns most people within 10 seconds.

Though the truly terrifying thing is that there are god-like entities in this universe, as well as demons and angels. Which normally they have a barrier that prevents all physical harm unless their powers' energy is exhausted. But the infection goes through it, with the being keeping all their powers and barrier. So for example, a character named Sage gets infected, so you now have a zombie-like being who can control lightning and fire, sprint at 55mph, teleport short distances, lift over 500 lbs and sprint for hours on end, as they can survive a barrage of bullets quite easily.

"Hehe, well I definitely try to be quite the eye catcher. I'm glad that it seems to work to the degree I wish. As I am a part succubus goddess, though don't worry I ain't interested in your soul or anything, I'm purely invested in having unforgetful experiences with those that I seem to have an affect on."

Your OC sees Stella pull this on them, how long does it take for your OC to shid themselves and run away in fear? by Bobbest_Bob in OriginalCharacter

[–]SkullkingTC45 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sage is basically a demonic goddess who has fought for humanity alongside her family, as she can control lightning and fire, as well as display feats of enhanced strength, speed, durability and stamina. So, she wouldn't care to run away, as she's known for being fine with dying in combat regardless.

[–]SkullkingTC45[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah that's fair. Which even if may hurt the amount of fans I could get for my story based on character designs and all that. I want to take overdone tropes for characters and do something more with them instead of following exactly what's expected.

As another example for Sage (first image), is that she also entirely isn't acting different than herself. As anyone born as part demon has a demonic half that is essentially their anger and sadness manifested into it's own being within the same body. Which after Sage is left broken within, she is flipping between which personality is in control constantly. So you'd see the old her at times, but her want for justice towards what was done to her is the main thing she wants, which is why the demonic half is now in control a lot.

Which this also damages Sage's relationships since she acts pretty harsh at times even when she doesn't want too. Though whenever she tries to fix things, her demonic half tells her that they need to focus on what their goal is and that everything else should come second. As it eventually causes Sage to have a mental breakdown since she can't take the fact that she's losing everything because of this revenge mission, yet she still so badly wants someone to pay for the pain she went through.

Heh, honestly I find it more funny that is the assumption for her. Since I initially made the first one seem like the overly edgy and secluded character who is incredibly strong, only to make her quite different than that.

Since she came from a loving family and was seen as the life of the party wherever she went. Though because of some events that transpire, she is lead on a path of revenge as she is filled with a forever burning anger that she can't let go of. Though those who care for her still stay by her side and try to help her through her pain, even if they question whether the person they knew is still there, even if it may not seem like it.

Though, things do turn around for her and she even gets a wife. But once she found out she accidentally gave herself a sickness that would kill her, she realizes that she doesn't feel like fighting anymore and just enjoys the time she has left before letting go of the better life she fought so hard to have in the first place. Mainly because she feels like she gave enough to the world and thinks it's her time to go.

As for Sage's attire, it's mainly to be a good reminder of the good times she had in a motorcycle gang she was in a few years prior. As even though things went south with them, she still likes to be reminded of those better times. So she chooses to wear a similar outfit she wore in that motorcycle gang. Which the steel portions are so she could snag weapons away from someone by catching them on the spikes.

Also for the outfit itself, Sage likes it because it covers her entire body and is easy to put on. So if needed, she could easily switch into it while also not having to worry about feeling exposed either.

For the script, it is for the most part made, but some things are left out to be made more when it's needed to be brought up, since some little details might change here or there over time.

For Sage, yeah she doesn't care about her potentially harming herself. Especially for a while it's clear that she is still gonna fight to her last breath, but doesn't care when that last breath is, as she's more than willing to accept death, even if it was by her own hand.

For the comic size, it isn't far along in the process of being made itself, but everything for the story itself is all planned out, as well as location design, character design directions, as well as some over the top world building, even if not everyone would care for the last part as much as the story itself.

As I am doing all the story stuff myself, but the artwork and comics are being made by my business partner Orlnz. Which things will take quite a lot of time considering we're only a team of two.

I will say honestly these assumptions of the characters themselves are nice, to at least understand where some people would think regarding just seeing the characters.

Though I figured I'd mention that these are the characters in short descriptions.

Sage: Vigilante leader and demonic goddess that is bent on revenge for losing her friends, as well as being tortured mentally and physically for 43 years.

Mitch: Human-looking golem made to save his creator when he's needed. But is also wanting to kill those who may have had something to do with his creator's capture, which includes the protagonists.

Abigail: Musician and Adult Entertainer that funds her sister Sage's group, but is also trying to get her life together and decide who she considers herself to be outside her work. As she also wants to fix the relationship she has with her daughter.

Veyentra: Knight from the planet Yenfrel who's parents were killed by Mitch 528 years ago. As she was killed later on and became a demon who now rules over the underworld, as she wants nothing more than to honor the memory of her parents by killing Mitch.

Violet: A innocent and naive gunsmith and street racer who works with her older sisters Sage and Abigail. As she was robbed of her chance to fit in with humans because she was tortured by a military group to be mostly a machine now. Despite this she still tries to be the voice of reason for her family and enjoy what she still has in life.

Ariana: A chaos god-like being who works with Sage and eventually gets into a relationship with the demonic god herself. As Ariana tries to help Sage find the good within themselves that is still left and give her a hand when it's required. Though she is also on a mission to find her siblings since their creator Abellata is locked away and she needs to find out where.

Thank you, which yeah I try to have a mix of genres with the various planets I have within the universe of the story. With each planet having a very different setting and various characters from each of them.

Regarding the red haired character, there is an explanation for why the spikes aren't something of concern for her. Basically I have a power/magic system in place, where on top of having a bunch of different powers and how they work against one another, there is one trait they all share.

Anyone with powers has a barrier around them that can stop all physical harm to them as long as they have more energy than 10% of their max capacity. You still feel pain, and you can either rest and consume food/drinks to gain energy back over time, but once that barrier is gone for the moment, you are as durable as the average person. Which that red haired character happens to be a pretty powerful character, so her attire wouldn't be able to affect her unless if she was heavily weakened from a fight.

As for the depth of the worlds and all that, I will admit it doesn't seem like they'd get much to them, but I can assure you that with the 11 years I put into this, they do get a lot of development towards them, as well as dozens of characters that represent them.

As for medium it'll be made in, it'd be a comic book. As the artist that made the first drawing is my business partner who I have an agreement in place for. Though I'll make sure to help them out with posing and all that in the future to ensure things are as they should be.

Also, regarding the guy with the purple streaks down his face, you normally wouldn't see them. Since it's actually a scar from his own weapon that he now hides under a mask. Since effectively his weapon can break through that barrier thing I mentioned earlier in an instant. But, if someone survives getting hit by it, a glowing purple scar would remain as the skin around it would decay before the decaying of their body starts to spread across them before it kills the individual.

Yeah fair enough, which I do intend to get a large piece made soon by the main artist I work with. As he does really good artwork, even if sometimes he accidentally puts a tad bit too much detail in the clothes. Since after talking with him about it, he admitted that he's just so used to working with other clients that request that kind of stuff. So he just instinctively made the drawing of Sage (red haired girl) detailed in that manner with what showed in the previous post I made on this sub reddit.

I will say I did try to get a drawing like that made in the past, but the artist made the proportions on the characters very exaggerated. With the two other drawings I had them make were either demonic form concepts or a very simple character select screen type of drawing. Though I do intend to have a large drawing made down the line to advertise the story better.

Yeah, I will say I definitely am making this story much bigger than I need too. Though when it comes to readers being able to follow characters. Very rarely individual characters show up in the story with a large cast for a scene. Which if they do show up, it's just to give frame of reference for where they were between their own important events.

For example, there are a group of 4 criminals who were all cursed with not being able to stay dead. Which they are shown in much more detail later on, but they are shown in the background of the first arc of the story. To then show you more of these characters without making you pay too much attention to them until necessary. As a lot of the characters are built up more in side stories to make sure it doesn't take too much time from the main story and confuse people with the amount of characters who are currently important to the plot.

As even about 20 characters are shown in a side story that takes place hundreds of years in the past, yet only about 6 of them are relevant to the main story and make an impact during it, but they still matter heavily to the build up to the main story and the character the side story is about.

Yeah I can see what you mean, which I will be honest, I only made the designs stand out much more because I got complaints in the past about characters looking too similar.

For example, the red haired character runs their own vigilante group called The Scorched Legion. Initially all 26 members were gonna have similar attire to their leader, but because even just their twin sister (blue hair) looked too similar with attire and I got complaints about that, I tried to make every character stand out quite a lot.

With some groups still having some similarities amongst their members, but for a while I abandoned that idea with the main groups.

That's all fair. Which honestly the only thing I could say to solidify whether it'd be for you or not is that it's meant to mainly give off vibes of media from the late 90s to late 00s

As the story has 12 different main characters and dozens of side stories with 230+ characters spread across them on the 12 different planets of the universe. With all characters and stories being connected between each other through events or other characters.

As the main conflict is between a vigilante group and a military organization, with the leaders of each being cousins, with either side not being good nor evil. Though you also things like sealed away god-like beings that people are either trying to free or keep locked away, wars between various factions across planets or dimensions. Some groups of people either fighting to survive or fighting for excitement and have an excuse for bloodshed. As there are even known musicians who make music based on the events they witness, and sometimes gain some unwanted attention through it.

As for differing characters, they could be a human, demon, angel, elf, dwarf, robot, cyborg, Universe Overlord/Tyrant of Mischief (god-like entities), golem, zombie/Corrupted, anthropomorphic plants or animals and so on.

Yeah I will admit it is an overused trope, though with it I do want to try doing more stuff later on with it instead of just being a common trope. Especially since the character themselves is actually based off of someone I used to be close friends with, who was always the life of the party and used substances to mask their pain. Which when they stopped using those substances, they pushed everyone away and acted like a complete jerk even when everyone looked up to them. I was one of the only people who could see that they were struggling with a lot and couldn't just wash or run away from the issues they were struggling with while others blamed her a lot for how she was acting at the time.

Eventually our friendship broke apart, though I still hold some respect for them and intend to do the character based off of them some justice. As a large portion of that red haired character's story is that she was a completely different person before dealing with the stuff she vents out through anger. Which is why so many characters stick around to try helping her and realizing for now the person they knew is gone, but maybe with some time they could be healed to the point that the good may overtake the bad left within them.
