Title: B-charas for my game
Post by: Linkforce on July 18, 2005, 03:42:14 AM
Well, I have been having a few thoughts about this.  Alot of people like the Narikiri style, and I agree.  They are pretty sweet.  But, I have realized that lately, It seems that I have limitations to the diversity of my characters.  Like I cant choose what weapons they use.  And I cant really choose what they look like.  So I have thought of using sprite sized.  Most people like the B-charas on my game, but thats not what the game is about.  It's about the story.  So please vote on what you think I should use.  Thanks. :D

I agree. I like the Narikiri BChars, but there's only so much you can do with them. I would much rather see sprite over Narikiri (or something custom, better yet).

I disagree, because then the time that the people who edited those for you (including yourself) was a waste. So I vote Narikiri.

Thats true.  But it was just a re-color.  And only two of the B-charas were done by others.  The rest by me.

if you think about it the Narikiri ones are original in their own way because everyones (including myself and ace) are using sprite sized so why not stray from the group?? I kno you think you cant do much with em but i bet you you can do more then you think...i personally like the Narikiri ones better because no one else is using them and it makes your game stand out to me

I agree that it does make my game stand out, but its like im copying TOS and what not.  Its just not my characters.  It's like I'm altering the TOS ones.

lol. well i vote rtp style.

i make this vote because...you know...i like rtp alot.

plus there are SO many rtp resources...and the option to have weapons change graphics...i dunno, i LOVE rtp honestly...and most of the resources ive made for battlechars are rtp...

PLUS you can use the generators.

seriously.
RTP.

sorry linkforce but I gotta go with sprite.
After all when you use sprite(RTP or not) you have much more options mostly cuase 1) you did them yourself or generated them, 2) you can make more custom things such as longer attacks things like that, 3) you get to have out of battle fights if you use sprite sized!!!

now I have said my part and bid you farewell.

EDIT: also if you want look for the Nakiri Spritesheets they make great large battlecharas...

DON'T LOOK AT ME, CUASE I AIN'T HELPING YOU FIND/RIP/MAKE/OR ANYTHING ELSE WITH THEM!!!

Yes the Sprite sized is better. For me its cooler cuz you can make some neat battle animations real easy.. And with just some POSES !.. I prefer SS (Sprite sized)¨. Thank you

I like Nakiri the best... makes the game more Special... much harder to make them though... >.<
LF, you are going to keep using the Nakiri bchars right?

Everyone is so opinonated on this subject. Fabulous.

I myself will tell you to go for whatever would be easier, although majority usually rules.

I have voted "sprite".

You do know that your decision on this matter might change the way that people think of you when you ask a request, right? Just keep that in mind.

I vote Narikiri, But it seems someone voted on my account...?
I vote Narikiri because I spent some time making an edit on one. I like the way it is done and it looks far better! But I don't use that Sprite style though...

Post by: Al~Len on July 18, 2005, 11:24:15 PM
I simply voted sprite sized because those are what I for one enjoy the most.
You'd be able to do more with them most likely than the 'Narikiri' kind anyway when it comes down to editing, especially for a variety of moves and what not.

Sprite sized, for reasons you already know.

Post by: Sqoad on July 18, 2005, 11:45:06 PM
Hehe! The only people who prefer editing/working with normal sprites don't do Narikiri probably because they are too lazy ^^ It really isn't that hard.

Because you had people do something for nothing. Sure, you didn't know you would come to this decision, however, now when you request, request fulfillers might think to themselves "How do I know that he won't change his mind later on? Eh, I don't wanna do it." Just telling you, because that's the reason I don't do map requests anymore.

You brin up a good point.  I can't really comment on that, or decide yet what to use.  Here are the pros and cons of both.

Sprite-
Pros: Diversity in weapons, diversity in appearance, different battle animations.

Cons: Might not get requests done.  

Narikiri-
Pros: Look really cool, make game stand out, unique.

Cons: Not much to work with, have to copy TOS appearances, limited to weapons.


Hmm......this will be tough......
