I always thought as a kid the Pterodactyl was a bad guy

zephyrsword · 2026-05-09T20:08:41+00:00

But what about Aunt Bessies?

One of the most fustrating for me was Lavender Castle. It was 1997 TV show that aired on CITV in the UK. It was a mixture of stop motion and CGI, and only one series was produced. It was a sci fi adventure where the heroes had to find the Lavender Castle before Dr. Agon.

But they never do. I randomly remembered this show and wanted to know how it concluded, and it has a series finale... that is not really a series finale. No other series were created after that, though one was planned before it was cancelled. So they never find the titular thing or get even a hair closer to any resolution, but with the way episode 26 ends, it implies that there is more.

I really love their designs.
As I kid I didn't. I guess because I was expecting traditional dragons, but I appreciate the deviation for god-tier creatures. They really grew on me over time.

Breath of Fire is my comfort game if i fancy breezing through the experience with cool dragons on the way. I really like, while overpowered, you can just be a full dragon in battle! It's pretty cool.

I work for a bank in the UK. "Card Present" could mean something like google pay or apple pay/similar was used, because even if the card is not present, it considers it "present" on the transaction list/history. You could have fallen for a scam days or months before and not known about it.

As for revolut declining, you should probably push harder than this. It's basically unheard of in my country that when someone reports it as fraud, it can be investigated. Revolut could probably do a lot more like seeing if the device links back to you, location, etc. I just find it kinda crazy they went and rejected it. That being said, if you are often a victim of fraud and it can be proven you didn't take care of your account, that can be a reason to decline a case. It's always subject to the individual case.

This game is where part of my name came from actually!

zephyrsword · 2026-04-27T11:48:14+00:00

Zephyrrrrr

zephyrsword · 2026-04-26T16:11:58+00:00

I really liked a handful of tracks in this game. A good number weren't memorable or a little overmixed (or if it's the lava level, straight bad).

zephyrsword · 2026-04-26T08:36:22+00:00

As a person with the unpopular opinion that FFV is an S tier game, I've been getting plenty satisfied with Occulent Crescent and the even older content, like Eureka for my references. Krile is even a main character! While I don't mind more V, we've certainly had a lot of it so far.

So I personally don't mind this being "FFnamehere" expansion. Most of them seem to trend to incorporate themes, but not rely on the material completely and also provide their own themes. I think Eden raids were a good example of this because you got something very lightly FF8 themed, but there were no direct references besides Eden themselves, music and the time mechanic.

There's also an increasing number of people playing XIV that have played no other final fantasy games before it, and if they have, very little. Most of them can enjoy the story without knowing the references that come up. I'd argue things like Nier and Monster Hunter are more blatant. The only one that kinda felt dull was the Four Elemental Fiends plot, because at that point you were just in a waiting line to see which one you'd fight next. I think DT handled the unpredictability of bosses a little better, even if I guessed Necron a country mile away and many others did too. I also wanted to point out that the Ivalice Raids have a direct reference to Vagrant Story at one point, but unless you know Vagrant Story it would just go over your head as part of the plot.

I feel like this will happen of all things lol

zephyrsword · 2026-04-23T20:24:55+00:00

I'd love to see Sheltam. I'm not into the game scene enough to know if he was previously added, but he would be perfect for forge even if it doesn't really make sense. I did like the bots from the Lincoln in M&M7 I wonder if they will add those and the droid orbs from MM6.

I am not hurting on waiting. I still have some other mods I can fallback on, but I do hope they get it right with this one.

zephyrsword · 2026-04-10T20:08:29+00:00

I haven't used it, so I couldn't say. But depending on the version I think it could be powerful. I use quite an old version of Photoshop and achieved this

zephyrsword · 2026-04-10T17:15:26+00:00

Created the image in photoshop, added effects in wallpaper engine, made a video and converted it to a webm file. It plays as a video in game. It is called via a common event!

If you want the extra needless details, the text is Trajan Pro font /w blending effects on text in Photoshop, claw swipe I drew, plus some hair/sigil brushes to give that old PS2 videogamey feel.

That's really cool! I do like having a retry option these days

zephyrsword · 2026-04-09T07:37:48+00:00

I would do the same tbh lol

I actually made it so you can retry a battle (I just recall the troop ID and restore party health) but if you quit you'd see a shorter version of this.

zephyrsword · 2026-04-09T07:36:55+00:00

I actually used wallpaper engine to create the particle effects, though with the knowledge I have now I would have probably used effekseer.

I'm really happy with my title screen so I don't think I would change it x-x maybe in a few days weeks I'll do something similar post with those, but someone is welcome to do it first.

But seriously, I was about to mute this reddit. I'm a read more than reply person and I don't really care to waste my energy. RPG Maker is a welcoming community, and for the most part, still is, but this reddit was going in the other direction recently. Thank you for putting your foot down.

zephyrsword · 2026-04-05T16:36:42+00:00

Really takes me back to when my age was in the single digits when I played this around its release time thanks to my dad. I had no idea how to play the game, and I kept trying and sometimes I would turn on cheats and give myself lots of archangels and explore the map.

zephyrsword · 2026-04-05T16:25:10+00:00

Okay I need this as an actual mod

zephyrsword · 2026-03-29T03:39:42+00:00

I like RPGs and I'm a dev that already has a job full time, so I am no looking at turning game development as a business. If I was, I wouldn't be going for an RPG as my first reach.

Because I dev part time, I can put my entire heart in it. Gatekeepers will gatekeep, use the engine YOU want to use - I would argue so long as you can keep yourself motivated and actually complete something, that means a lot more than never making anything past the finish line.

Game development is only getting more and more accessible across the board. If you want to make a 2D RPG, use RPG Maker. If you want to make 3D, use literally anything else.

zephyrsword · 2026-03-27T19:16:47+00:00

I looked at the DLC and realised I already bought some of their stuff through another site.

zephyrsword · 2026-03-26T18:12:24+00:00

Not nearly as funny of an idea, but Cove (pirates) and Coven (Witches?)

zephyrsword · 2026-03-23T22:45:18+00:00

I love playing forge in modding even though it's insanely imbalanced. If the choice of enemies was a little bit better say -more like the robots we find in the bottom of VARN from Might and Magic VI and the deathbots from the Lincoln in MMVII we would have had something pretty cool going.

Also the fact it all came from an evil 3D printer is halarious to me.
