My game, PACT

[Meiscool-2]

I've had the spanish version of RPG maker for awhile, because that's all i could find when i was young. But, now that i have the
english version, i need to know a few things. I'm a complete newb/n00b/noob/whatever the heck you want it to say/ at this msg board stuff, and I wanted to post some screenshots and a demo of what I've done with my english RPGmaker. So, if someone could give me a hand here on how to do screenshots, I'd be greatful.

Edit- Ok i know how to do screen shots now so just skip downward to the other stuff.

push Print Screen which is right of the F12 button. Then go to paint or whatever and push Ctrl and V. It will come up on the screen. Thats a screen shot

Alright, the whole cliche or not cliche thing will be right here.

The basic plot of the game is you and others are monster hunters, it's your job, how you put food on the table, etc.
In this world, there are people called partners, which are people that have made a pact with a elemental soul for survival. Either
the soul makes the pact with the human because it's fading, or the human with the soul because it's dieing. In return, to obtain the pact power, something of equal or greater value most be lost.

Thus begins the story, Small seen where you and others are clearing a huge temple out of monsters, when one of you allies is injured from a monster. He knels over to die, when his blood touchs a sacred artifact, or tombstone, resulting in a pact being formed to save his life. (I don't know what I will have him lose yet, something like his feelings, Etc he can't feel pain anymore, taste, smell, etc.)

To live on he invokes the power and transforms into his pact counterpart, thus making him larger and creating a hole in the roof of the cave temple. You allies rush to get out before the cavein, but the opening to the outside vanishes as you're just about to leave.

You take controll now, and you now have to find a new way out of the cave. After a while, to will find a passage that takes you to another room in the temple, where you find another pact artifact/tomb, but it's covered in webs, cracks, and all that stuff that makes things look old and unused. It talks to you, saying that the soul that the other person pacted with has been leaching away at it slowly, and so you make a pact with it to escape the cave.
Within rules of pacting, it says you must lose something to gain the pact, and the hero here loses his memories.

And here begins the two plots. First is the human plot, where you retrace your steps to find you allies and getback on with life, learn who you are, etc. Second, you pact being wants revenge on the other pact, so friend must be pitted against friend in order for foe to pit agaisn't foe.

Just tell me if this:
A: sounds good
B: sounds cliche
and C: sounds original

I want you to rate it in all three of the above, don't just tell me it wasn't cliche or something then not tell me what you think of the rest.

[ivan mage]

I think it sounds good. I dont think i've ever heard this done before. Good luck with it.    

[Meiscool-2]

Well thankyou, I was going for something that hasn't been done before

[wildguy3922]

It sounds good. I haven't a story like that before.

[PyroAlchemist]

   WHY!? WHY DID YOU MAKE A GOODER STORY THAN ME!? *goes off and cries* After all I've done

[Meiscool-2]

A: gooder is not a word

and B: don't feel bad. I'm a rpg manic and I've been owrking on several plots over the years scence I've learne to read and write. I've made a book about one, and it's 60 pages in ten font right now, I suppose i can sum it up real good if anyone wants to here that plot too, but I won't tell to muh because i don't want anyone taking that plot, i've worked to long and hard on it!

[DragonBlaze]

Well its definately not cliche, at least not to the point were it would be a negative. Right now your story seems very solid, and I like it. Good job

I'll be looking forward to some screenies, I'm assuming you have some after asking how to take them in your first post

[Meiscool-2]

Alright, I'm still working on the screens, I know it shouldn't be this hard but it is, I keep getting "error! bmp not allowed" and other various things so I'm trying to work a way around it. As for screens, I guess I can still give you this one. It's my main character. Take him and use him if you want, but I'd prefer you didn't for the time being.

Charas doesn't support .bmp uploads. Save the picture as a .png and upload it as that

That bchar is pretty cool, but its the main dude of Bahamut Lagoon (I can't remember his name ) BH was a great game though, and I wouldn't mind seeing the bchar graphics in a few other games

The losing feelings and smell and other sensees reminds me of when Collete realeased in TOS when after realesing the seals she lost her senses.

[Meiscool-2]

I knew It was to good to be true when I found that bc on the
internet. It works perfectly as my idea for the main character.

I might change it later, but right now I'm just going to keep it as such.

[Meiscool-2]

Thanks for the bmp, png thing!

Here's screen one:
