Hm.. this sounds really kewl! A lot more kewler than pokemon or digimon, after a while all that digimon and pokemon crap got annoying. I mean, it went more to the little kids and never changed, and that was annoying. This could really be kewl.

Just one thing, if you use rmxp, since it is much more illegal than rm2k/3, even if you did get a ruby script for it to be online how would you put it online without basically telling enterbrain, "HEY! I've got an illegal download of yours! FINE ME!(or whatever they do to you.)"

I would use a legal version of rmxp, and include all the files needed to run the game in the game file (so you wouldn't need rmxp to run it). So yeah its legal.

And I'm trying to keep my game as far away from pokemon and such as i can. Yeah its gonna have some simularities, but it'll be aimed for a higher age group, and all the monsters will be cool. I remember once when i was baby sitting, I saw an eposode of digimon where there was this big gay teddy bear that shot out heart shaped bubbles from its gut. There will be none of that in my game.

Oh, BTW, I need to think of a name to call this game, if anyone comes up with any ideas, please let me know :)

That's the German "esset"(double s) I think. A German would see it an say, "WTH is ssreed?"

Monster sounds good though. Basic, but good. better than my idiot idea.

I don't think I'll use monster for a name, I just don't think it has that special something that a name needs. However i may use a term that these monsters are called as a name, although I'm not sure if thats a good idea cuz pokemon and digimon do that as well.

Yeah thats an esset :D, I have no idea how to even get that character with the keyboard I have. I don't think i can since i dont have a numpad...

Yeah, DragonBlaze, this could make a pretty cool game, with good programming and enough selection and customizing.

Some of those names are pretty good. I'll most likely use the EBON to get a name (or at least a starting point for one) :)

Thanks, but your gonna have to wait a long time before you can beta test it. I want to wait till enough gfx are made for rmxp that I won't have to use any rtp gfx for chipsets or npcs. And then I'll make all the monster sprites myself so they will all be original and never before seen :D. Also I want to finish up my current game I'm working on (will take about two weeks) then get a ways through my next one (which I am also currently working on :))

Allright right now I need some suggestions on what the various monster types should be like. I don't want to have any "stupid looking" monsters in it such as diglet from pokemon (I had to watch an eposode with them when I was babysitting some kids  :x ). I'll add a few "cute" monsters just because some people may like them. However I want most of the monsters to look "cool". I'm going to through in a variaty of dragon like creatures becuase a lot of people find them "cool" or at least they don't  have much against them, and a dragon type creature can be widely assorted into creatures like snakes, creatures like raptors, and the regular big four legged ones. I am going to need some suggestions though on what other types of creatures to use though...

Making this in BYOND would be supa easy.  And it allows the MMORPG element in it. See, in BYOND, the difficulty depends on what you want to make.

The type of fighting you're thinking of is actually the simplist to make in BYOND, while an RPG battle system would be the hardest. The only problem I can see with yours is having enough maps for the amount of players.

If you want it to be single player up until battles, then BYOND is not the route to go. But if you'd like to make it kind of like a community, start looking at Zilal's Beginner Tutorial 1, that would be what you're looking for.

Well I have no idea how to use BYOND, if it requires any scripting language, I doubt I'll use it for this game. I know how to use RM very well and I know how to make every system I need for it, if I use a differant maker, then I have to learn how to make everything I need, which will probably take a very long time. I guess the only way I'll use it is if it has an interface a lot like RM2k(3)/xp or if I get a lot of help from someone who knows how to use the program well.

No matter what maker I use, I want the begining part to not involve anything online. Then later on when you train your monster a bit, you can go off to the rest of the world. Like I said in my first post, I got a lot of the ideas for this game from an anime called "dragon drive". In the first 5 eposodes they train they're playing a virtual reality game called dragon drive. Once the main guy gets strong enough, a person from another world brings him to that world becuase his dragon is some holy dragon, and also they were afraid that the people running the dragon drive game would use his power to do bad things. I really want to stay away from using anything like a virtual world or being sucked away to another world, but I don't want you to be able to just go off into the world at the start of the game. I have a few ideas that aren't cliche at all for this part, so don't worry :D

After you go off to the start though is when you could meet up with other players, if I'm using RMXP, that would mean you could only battle them (asuming I get that scripted), if I make it with something like BYOND, then you could actually talk to other players and such.
