Because I wanna know!

Journal Entry: Tue Apr 15, 2008, 6:39 PM


Just for fun

Everyday as I walk to and back from school I day dream. It is a 40-50 min walk so I have plenty time to think.
And well the most recent thoughts have been purely XM related, like to do with the comic and all. but the one I had Monday was what if I went back to my roots of this story and tried to make it into a video game like I originally wanted to. (action RPG)

This is where I ask you, If you were to control one character and have 2 other characters as party members who would YOU choose? XD
Please tell me why as well.

(think of a system similar to ff12, where you are not stuck using the main character.)

Hiro: Average overall
Kilara: +Healer -strength
James: +strength +skill -speed
CJ: +speed +skill -defence
Naya: +healer +spellcaster -defence
Chowli: +100%accurate +spellcaster -strength -defence
Kestrel: +strength+fast -defence
Tank: +strength +defence -speed

If you dun know the characters, look at my shout board for character sheets




DO NOT USE MY CHARACTERS, CREATURES OR IMAGES FOR YOUR OWN RP/STORY/COMIC

I really like your design for Chowli, so I would definitely want him in the party. I'm also intrigued by Kestrel and Tank. Of course, none of them can heal, which might make things difficult. ^^;

Kestrel as main, because she kicks ass, and probably naya and hiro as second chars :). Hope to see more of you on DA, but I pretty much feel not showing up much either on DA. Hope school has been going well for you ^^. *hug*

Well, if I had my choice I'd jsut make a character for myself, but.

I'd play Hiro, most definitely, and have Kilara as a side girl. Though, I have no idea who else I'd pick. Almost all their personalities irritate me and I'd never get along with them. XD

Kestral as my main with Hiro and Naya as supporting characters

Probably Hiro as the main and then kilara and Kestrel as backup.

The main character, in my mind, is best as being the person who's good all around (which ususally tends to be the average person). Kilara is good for healing, and then Kestrel for the attacks. :]

I'd choose Naya as the main, mostly because she's my favorite character of yours, mostly just because she's a cat. ^^; but I do like to have a spell caster/ healer in my parties, very handy.

For party members I'd probably chose Tank because, well, I like having "tanks" in my party. Someone that could withstand powerful special attacks and revive other party members in a pinch.
The second party member would be kestrel because of strength and speed. When I can I usually just charge in a whack things and don't actually use much magic. Plus I really like her design.

Although, I'm sure I'd use all of them at some point. I'm playing FFX now and I change my people around all the time.

Kestrel as main character (most of the time anyway), Naya and CJ as supporting characters.

I have a weakness for speed/strength characters. It's all about quick attacks for me. I kind of imagine Kestrel to be able to pull off some crazy martial art combos. C:

Naya, because she could take on a double role of the main healer and main spellcaster. Plus, she's really cute! (Nothing like solid criteria for a group member, huh? <XD But seriously, every group needs a lil' cutsy! <:3) I bet she'd be loosing loads of MP, but I'd want to make that up with any of CJ's skills (I imagine they'd be kind of like techniks in FF12. Only there'd be a much larger number and variety of them).

CJ could help in battle through direct combat, special moves as well as with some minor healing and buffing skills perhaps. Kind of. Balancing things out?

I could alternately switch CJ for James or Hiro, but I like him too much to do so. C:

Another choice for a party would be James, Chowli and Kilara. Kind of a classic tank-spellcaster-healer combination, but I like those too. (Plus this party gets +93853945 points for having Chowli in it. :D)

Now I just keep spacing out in front of the comp imagining how the game would look. Ah, nothing like a good distraction from homework... C:

I normally use every character in a game. I try to keep their abilities, strengths, level, etc, etc, as balanced as possible. While I do have favorites, I still try and use them all. So there wouldn't be any one set of three I'd use all the time. Even during boss fights. I'd use the strongest three to win.

I actually love all the characters and like FF 12 i think you shuld have them all avaible and able to switch out and change the leader etc.


How ever my favorite three are:

Kestrel;; I have a horn fetish. I haven't a clue why but characters with horns appeal to me. Ontop of that it be interesting to have a character that only uses claws/talons to fight. She provides interesting character and along with the following two their would be balance within the group.

Tank;; I think we need more bulky sweet guys in games. It actually provides for a game and story instead of KH or FF games where all the guys manages to become extremely juciy in looks. But i adore tanks personality and i love how you made him a blacksmith along with his severed hand which is replaced by the clockwork arm. (i dunno it appeals to me because its different and provides a nice story) besides thier is always that one character that needs to have a strong defense and attack. (gotta love those in games ;;)

then

Chowli;; absolutely love the character design (lolol) he's adorable for some reason. Most games have at least one spell caster, healer, etc. perhaps he's all in combined. i'd enjoy him i think the most just because spell casting is usally most effective in the games.



Yah. here is my opinnion.

:]
