Still, if you were stuck on a part of the game, would you just quit because you don't know what to do? No, a walkthrough/FAQ section would be the area you would look for. Since the games here are all RPG's they are all extensive and some are bound to have tricky parts that no one can figure out. The section would allow people to stay into games they have started already. _________________ Kweh! |

Complexity in OHR games? The day that happens is the day I faint of joygasm. Actually, it's in Powerstick man, at least. |

Chocobo, name ONE game made in the OHR you couldn't beat because you couldn't figure out how to do something.
EDIT: That wasn't due to a bug or really shitty game design. _________________ Preserve OHR history! Do it for the children! |

Chill guys, I'm not trying to start an arguement. I'm just saying that I think a Walkthrough section would be great to understand games more and it would be another way for people to understand every aspect of the game. _________________ Kweh! |

Blazes Battles Inc., to answer your question, it was a hypothetical example. I'm sorry if it wasn't really accurate. _________________ Kweh! |

Okay, look, I'm sure there would be a section if there was more than the two or three walkthroughs for OHR games that exist. But since there aren't, and I know they weren't all even submitted to be put here if there ever was a section, it would be pretty pointless to have an entire 'Walkthrough List' that had either one or no walkthroughs in it. _________________ Preserve OHR history!

As with anything, something can't be good if people don't use it. You could have the best website in the world, but if no one visited it, then it would be pointless. It's the same with this situation. If no one submitted walkthroughs, then it would be pointless to have a walkthrough section. But who knows, things might change...the games might get tougher, and walkthroughs might be required. |

I personally think that having a fairly empty walkthrough section would encourage people to write walkthroughs. It'd be a good chance for people, like me, who can't make games to do something for the community. _________________ You got film in my video game!

Yes you are totally right. In order to start a walkthrough page, I'm just saying, people who play the game make them. Not the creator. I guess I'm just use to seeing other faq/walkthrough pages like gamefaqs.com. _________________ Kweh! |

Squall: That's true, although you're not bad at making games. But then again, there are always reviews aren't there? |

I'm still for a FAQ/Walkthrough section, although you guys have definitely brought up some good points. I still think there are even demos/unfinished games out there that are deserving of a FAQ/Walkthrough. Motherland would be a good example of this. _________________

Reviews are for judging and rating the game, not for a whole walkthrough. Or does this site work differently? _________________ Kweh! |

What they mean about the reviews is that you said walkthroughs would help you pick out the good games and get a better idea of what the game was about, or whatever. Reviews DO do that. _________________ Preserve OHR history! Do it for the children! |

However, walkthroughs are more in depth and would provide an even better understanding of the game. _________________ Kweh! |
