spanky1 12/20/18 12:40:28 PM #14 | I loved them at the time but I recently tried replaying them and they are REALLY hard and clunky. I couldn't beat the cave troll. He takes a million hits and you die in just a couple. It seemed so smooth and advanced at the time, but I'm afraid they didn't age well. --- |
Topic | SNL seriously did a whole skit about Weezer? |
spanky1 12/19/18 7:25:17 PM #6 | It's a funny skit, and the feeling of "they seriously did a skit about Weezer?" is the entire point of that skit, as shown by the reactions of the characters played straight in the skit. It's absurd that two people would get worked up over Weezer of all things, and therein lies the humor. --- |

Topic | Just clearing up a board rule ITT, so you guys are all aware. |
spanky1 12/17/18 7:50:22 PM #1 | On the topic of board invasion, and how it is defined, here is what a mod had to say: Board invasion is when a large group of users from one board suddenly flood another board to troll/harass the users of that board. Simply innocuously linking to another post you made on another board is not an invasion. So in other words, if I were to, say for instance, make a topic on some other social board and link it to this one and say to them "hey check this out, what do you guys think", then that would not be against the site rules and would not be modded. Just wanted to clarify for some of the users here, as well as mods, since some seem to be confused because they're suspending accounts for doing this, saying "do not encourage other users to invade another board." So just a heads up is all. --- |

spanky1 12/14/18 9:35:30 PM #15 | Some choice thoughts: Vyrulisse posted... Orc Women are hot so with. That's a legit compelling argument. I love she-orcs, and if I went with orcs a she-orc would be a featured character. She'd get captured by our heroes and be a bitch but ultimately side with the good guys because of a greater evil. Master_Bass posted... I prefer a story without them. It wouldn't be terrible to include them, though, since you already plan to add other mythical races. That's kinda why I began to consider throwing in elves and orcs in the first place. I've already got all these other fantastical things. Like, a fairy or pixie will definitely end up being a main character (think Puck from Berserk). I just thought it might feel weird to just have a bunch of humans around, and then bam, fairy character. The elves and orcs make it known that this is a fantasy right away. But then, eh, elves and orcs. >_> Tyranthraxus posted... I don't really care for the "noble savage monoculture" elf seen in various discount fantasy literature/games or the "I am better than you at everything" elf that tolkien used. I don't like the tropes you don't like as well. It's funny you bring up Dragon Age city elves, mine would kinda be like that. They're going to be short and physically inferior, be kinda weird physically, like they have four fingers. They have no nation or real culture of their own, they're treated like garbage by humans and anyone else, worker class. They would have strange personalities, like not proud Tolkien style and not humans with pointy ears, but like, almost autistic kinda. They'd really be limited in both physical and cognitive abilities and are straight up a lesser race. They get employed as simple servants and prostitutes and stuff, or just live on the streets like bums. specialkid8 posted... It sounds like you have enough to work with already so it could work either way. Elves would be hard to do as wild animals though without changing the generally agreed upon outline of what an elf is. I think orcs could work as even more devolved then they usually are. Rather than a savage warrior race they could basically be cavemen types who can only make basic tools and have no real speech. Oh I think you're mixed up there, the elves and orcs would be integrated in society in some way, they wouldn't be like wild animals. I'm saying that I know I'm 100% going to have stuff like trolls and fairies and stuff and they're like mysterious creatures off in the forest. But yeah the elves and orcs would be plenty evolved like normal, with slight differences. *** Lotta orc hate, I honestly like orcs more than elves in general. My plan for the orcs would be, they're very rarely seen, no huge armies or society, but are a dying race, they live in the deep woods in small tribes, and they're like seven feet tall and super dangerous. None of this chopping down orcs left and right stuff, you'd need multiple fighters to take down just one. Even she-orcs! I'm still so split. I do feel like elves and orcs dumb down the work, and make it more nerdy D&D style junk. But also they can be fun, and I'm going for kind of a fun story here. I dunno. :( --- |

But those kind of creatures are a very different thing compared to straight up elves and orcs walkin' around in plain sight, you know? Not having those Tolkien races would make the story more believable and grounded and "less nerdy", but then also those races, especially if I put my own spin on them, could make the story more fun. I'm so fifty fifty on this decision and I change my mind every day and I'm at the part in the book where I need to make a decision. --- |

Giant_Aspirin posted... why that much? a ROI of 5% is pretty conservative, so even "just" $1M would give you $50k/year, which seems like more than enough. Inflation though. When you're old enough to retire, 50 grand a year won't cut it. --- |

spanky1 12/13/18 9:07:31 PM #1 | So far I haven't noticed too much of the dreaded "tugging at her braid" type stuff, but I'm still pretty early. I do completely see what people mean about the female characters though. They're all the same, and they're all kinda abusive. Like, even random side characters that just have a little page time, yep, they're threatening to beat up their husbands or something, lol. The three main women are even described very similarly, physically. They're all short with dark hair. I'm picturing Christopher Loyd as Thom and Geralt from Witcher 3 as Lan. --- |
