marketing x quality never applied to movies or food, mate.

Not? When I don't like the food I don't eat it. If I never heard of the food I don't eat it either. So it applies for me.

@Moogle1
For me Valkyrie Profile had enjoyable gameplay will Dragon Quarter had awful gameplay that made me quit after 5 minutes playing it. I wouldn't consider Valkyrie Profile 2 tactical. It was only about a good setup of equipment and skills and inside battles it was pretty much straight forward button mashing (at least I could finish it like that on the easiest mode). Very enjoyable for me.

I'd just like to point out that you can't really rate or review a game based on the easiest mode available. Especially when it only involves button mashing.

You can rate any game no matter what, because you can always rate how much you enjoyed the game.

And Calahay, your quotes are again totally unrelated.

I could probably get past the first floor, I beat the aegis shields, but got bored and stopped playing it.

Darkmoor Dungeon is for the hardcore crowd anyway (VoM is much better for casual RPG players), but it really ticks me off when you say like you can make bosses just as good. I know you'll attempt to prove us all wrong, but it's really a self-focused attitude in my eyes.

Well if I don't bother you claim I'm too stupid and if I prove you wrong you say I've a self-focused attitude, so no matter what I do I'm bad, right?

Well... Yes. You left the worst possible impressions.

Last night I figured out that you are probably one of those people that only want to associate with 'high class' things, such as artists or genius games, while everything below that are average/below average.

I think my subconscious feelings dictate that you saying you could make battles just like Darkmoor Dungeon is to say that good boss battles are easy to make, and don't constitute much.

So yeah... I am very offended in this thread. Even the good things you have done such as bugtesting for Bloodlust are hard to stomach, because I know you'll use things on that to look down on us in the future.

I guess I didn't start off too well then.

The problem is that you don't differentiate between playing and creating a game.

When I play a game I have 'high class' standards out of the simple fact that I only want to play a game I really enjoy playing (like Bloodlust) and not a game that I don't enjoy but the rest of the community likes (like Darkmoor Dungeon).

When I create a game I'm all different than that. I love to help everyone even if he / she isn't very good as long as they want help. Only persons I wouldn't help are those that don't even appreciate my help. I mean I really helped Tamaria a lot with Dreams of Light and Darkness and she isn't the perfect artist either. She asked me for my help and was thankful, that's why I kept helping her.

I don't really think tactical battles are easy to make. I just know that I'm good with that just like I know Moogle is good with that. Of course Moogle is right I don't know all the new OHRRPGCE features, but I'm pretty positive I could learn them fast if I wanted to (and invested some time).

And that still doesn't mean I'm perfect, I often said I'm very very bad in other aspects and don't even plan on getting better in those. Especially graphics and music are something I don't like to do at all and feel no motivation to learn. Plotscripting I could actually learn but I was too lazy all the years (I'm positive about that because I studied computer science and never had problems learning a scripting language in some weeks there).

Anyways, I'm really not looking down on anyone except that you mean if I offer help I must consider that I'm better than the person I offered help to (which might be true but I'm not helping to look down on people, I'm helping because I love to help).

That's absurd that I should stop posting here now only because some people don't understand me. >_>

It's true that I want to play games that are better than anything I could do, I don't see anything wrong with that.

The others things I already tried to explain in all my previous posts.
