eclipse Posted September 7, 2014 Share Posted September 7, 2014 Much as I'd like to. . . 1. I don't have time right now to put it into picture form. 2. I don't think people are looking for a mess of pixels that look like a captcha tossed its cookies, because that's what would happen if I tried to do the weapon icon. Were you planning on holding the poll here, or on an external site? I don't know how 32 pictures will look on this site. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Were you planning on holding the poll here, or on an external site? I don't know how 32 pictures will look on this site. The weapon icon isn't necessary. If the concept is good enough, I don't see why it shouldn't be voted or selected. Many people basically put a simple recolor of a pre-existing GBA FE icon, and that's totally acceptable. Anyway, I was planning to put all of them in a poll here but... well, now that you make me think about it, perhaps it's not the best solution. Any ideas?

Book of Ereshkigal Posted September 7, 2014 Share Posted September 7, 2014 (edited) Use Google forms/survey or whatever it is? (You use it from google docs, I think? I've never used it lB) Edited September 7, 2014 by L95 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tryhard Posted September 7, 2014 Share Posted September 7, 2014 (edited) Don't have any weapon icons, sorry! Since the forging thing seems similar to Tearring Saga, I took a couple of the interesting weapons there (there were of course a few more like the Shield Sword increasing defenses between 1 and 20 whenever in combat, but I doubt that's possible without ASM) If "can be used to recover HP" isn't possible, then perhaps Heal 5HP per turn? This is exactly the same stats as the Dragon Arrow from TRS. Range could possibly be 1~3 as well and stats are subjective to change. edit: Alright, here's my other one: Sylpheed, also from TRS - cannot be countered, but I added cannot double as it was pretty OP, but it may still want other weaknesses. Reduced the might to 13 from 18 as it was, and that's about it. Stats still subjective to change etc. Also probably could use other names but I'm not creative enough.

I'd do a vote via SF PM, if you don't mind the inbox spam. If you do, then MAYBE something through Google, but that may present some verification problems.

Klokinator Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 (edited) Good luck getting people to read details on 32 entries before casting a vote. Most people will likely make it ten entries down at best and just vote for one of those (Meaning entries near the top have the most vote pulls) or they'll vote for whatever looks fancy without reading the details.

Alfred Kamon Posted September 8, 2014 Author Share Posted September 8, 2014 (edited) Here's a sample of the poll. The order of the pics is randomized, so that there's no primacy bias. You must choose at least 2 weapons. It's very intuitive, so it doesn't require much brainpower @Klok, I think people will take their time to make some proper votes. Have faith. Moreover, a little patience is required in any kind of survey. This one in particular will require only 5 minutes. Also, why don't you partecipate Klok? I'd be curious to see some of your stuff. Only 5 slots left! Edit: This is another sample of the poll. And I actually prefer it. It's based on a point system. Select a weapon and award it 1, 2, or 3 points. Not selecting a weapon will award it 0 points instead. At the end of the poll, the weapon with the highest rank will be inserted into the game.

I've seen some of your work and it's very impressive. Hey, I like this. I might use it, though to a more nerfed degree.Yeah, some of the TRS weapons have some nice effects, but the fact that is between one and twenty is a bit much, a lot of the weapons in TRS end up overpowered. especially since you can get them on enemies in the arena Edited September 8, 2014 by Tryhard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Klokinator Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 (edited) Also, why don't you partecipate Klok? I'd be curious to see some of your stuff.Any awesome weapons I could think up for your game I'd be more likely to put in my game, silly boy :P Also I don't like the idea of someone not knowing what to do with their game so they crowdsource ideas and call it a "contest". I mean, why would you only want one of these ideas? You could implement like, all of them, and it wouldn't take very long for someone like you. Might as well just call it the "Midnight Sun Playermade Forging Topic", much like how instead of holding a contest for a "lucky few" to get their mugs in Roguelike Emblem, I just let almost anyone submit one. (Well, not counting the really bad ones, obviously.) I dunno, it makes sense to me anyway. I've seen some great weapon ideas in this topic, and if you're really only gonna use two, I might as well use some of the leftovers :P Edit: Eh, I can make one, but no weapon icon unfortunately. Also I'm taking creative liberties with the weapon effects so you probably won't be able to use it without ASM, unfortunately. [Removed for redundancy's sake, look some posts lower] There's my weapon idea, it's the only one I'll submit XD Edited September 8, 2014 by Klok's Juicy Tits Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Name: Hell's Bane Type: Axe Rank: A Uses: 20 MT: 8 Hit: 70 Weight: 16 Crit: 10 Range: 1 Forge With: Devil Axe Devil Sword Devil Lance Hirudinea (Because why not) Effects: Cursed (Rate of 20-LUK so 0% curse rate is possible) Double damage on light magic users Steals HP from dark magic users +20% curse rate against anima magic users (So 40-LUK) Increases STR by +1 whenever 10% HP is lost Gives +5 RES and -5 DEF There's my weapon idea, it's the only one I'll submit XD Reply to bold: The fact is, dear Klok, I perfectly know what to do with my game. And I'm creative enough to make innovative content with my own strenght and effort, as I've always shown in these past two years. The reason I'll implement only two weapons is, of course, because this is a contest, nothing else. A contest of 32 entries with 16 winners would be a bit awkward, don't you think? And I don't want my game to be flooded with other people's ideas. This is just an opportunity I'm giving to the community to have some fun together. I could be that guy who works in the shadows for the whole time and doesn't give a crap about other people's opinions, but I'm different than that, and I like to share the work on which I've invested more than three thousand hours so far. So yeah. Feel free to reuse any of these ideas for your own projects, if you want (and if the owner of the idea approves, of course). I'll also give my humble, personal criticism to all the submissions once the poll is over. Ah Klok, would you mind submitting an image like everybody else is doing? <3 I like the concept of that weapon anyway. Even if I doubt some of those effects can be implemented. The change to the Devil effect formula is particularly interesting, perhaps I'll apply it to the other Devil weapons as well.

Klokinator Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 I thought you said not many posts back that images weren't required though? I'm no spriter so I can't/won't make an image. I can ask one of my friends to do so but that seems like wasted effort if the idea doesn't get used. Though to be honest I wouldn't submit an idea I wouldn't use myself so I'd just use it as a PRF weapon in my own game or someshit. Yeah I'll ask someone else.

Brendor Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 The devil routine probably looks something like mov r0,#0x1F ldrb r1,[r4,#0x19] sub r0,r1 lsl r0,r0,#0x18 lsr r0,r0,#0x18 Point being the 0x1F or 31 value is probably hardcoded meaning once you find it it's not hard to change Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazycolorz5 Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 He means an image like screencapping it and submitting that, or putting something in MS Paint, not an image like a weapon icon(which is the thing that's not required).

Brendor Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 That looks like a legit icon but the name Hell's Bane sounds weird cuz like its a devil axe but Hell's bane implies a righteous holy weapon (unless you're using the archaic definition of bane) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teapot Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 It could just be taken as "the Bane that belongs to Hell." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Klokinator Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 (edited) Well, if you say "Hell's Scourge", you can either mean "A scourge upon hell" or "A scourge created by hell". I tend to think of Hell's Bane as being "The bane of light, possessed by Hell".You're right it doesn't make a ton of sense but "Light's Bane" on an evil devil weapon sounds lame.In other news, I'll go ahead and submit a second weapon.Icon again by Aeo '3' Edited September 8, 2014 by Klok's Juicy Tits Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
