That is to say, N is not dead per se, but I'd be very happy to see someone else finish it, and do what I couldn't because of time constraints. Good luck with that.
As for Nanocrisis, that maybe revived in the near future as a topdown action RPG, but I'll have to see.
Like my sig says, I could use some sprites, although I'd prefer to do them myself.
This topic is for any open discussion on what you'd like to see in an RPG.
Thanks!!

So this is gonna be a bit like mmo style?

It may be easier when writing your own RPG from scratch. But for remakes or ports of an existing RPG, it can be difficult to mimic the original implementation. ;)
I have been working on Ultima V for 3 years now. :wacko:
Good luck! :)

Well Kevin, it's a maybe. I kind of want to focus on gameplay and less on graphics. I'm not a super at spriting, so I know I'm not going to focus on something trivial like that unless people feel graphics are very important. Besides, there is only so much you can do at 64x96, even in 4 level gs. I don't plan to use gs because I don't think I can make 8x8 sprites that are much better than b/w ones. Maybe on the 68k it would be okay.
As for gameplay, I want to see how far I can push RPG complexity. I was thinking that since graphics will probably lack, I'd like to get good gameplay. Like I mentioned to DJ_Omnimaga, I'm shooting for MMO in the sense of diversity. A lot more NPC interaction and involvement in story progression.
That being said, does that appeal to people?

| That sounds fine. However, it's better to have good graphics then bad ones. |
lol, these days, that seems kinda relative ^^
I might get a sprite sheet out and ask for suggestions later, but I kinda want to keep sprites secret for a bit...

.... how....?Well, I think I might upgrade to 16x16 gs, so it's basically back to the drawing board for me.
I might release the sprites I had been working on earlier if people want them. I think we should start some kind of sprite data base similar to project-charas.

Those are RPG Maker 2003's btw
Post by: Liazon on November 03, 2007, 04:04:00 am
those are 16x16???well, this project really won't progress much until after we make sure Lost Legends is completed. Hey, maybe we should be the official host or something? If that's okay w/ grendel.
well DJ_Omnimaga, the main sprites I have to redo are the people sprites, but you're the only one who know what I wanted to do w/ them. So don't tell!!

@Art_of_camelot: Sure, I'd really appreciate your help when I get this going again. When I do, I'll PM the details of what I want you to do, cuz I've got specific instructions.
I just hope all the data and code can fit into 300 kb, otherwise I'd be screwed w/ gs.

If you like, I could design a similar set with less tiles per theme. You would just neeed to specificy what sort of areas you have in mind. Like if you want a castle set, a town set, a dungeon set and a ship set...
Bear in mind, Lost Legends only uses 72 tiles, and Lost Legends II (more detailed) uses 108. (roughly 4 different theme sets crammed together, with minimal objects)
