The Great 'What's The Best Final Fantasy?' Debate Thread.

I've played only one of them fully, and that was X. It was alright. I guess. :3

My roommate's (who has played a good amount of them) favorite is 6. Based on ratings on these games, I have a feeling a lot of these games are overrated. Solely how much praise they get and how much they're talked about. But that term is kind of meaningless anyway. If someone enjoys something, that isn't a bad thing. :P

And now to randomly piss people off, Kingdom heart's plot is beyond retarded and the concept of this game is a terrible one.

Sacrificial Characters and Writing their Deaths

I honestly hate worrying about balancing in RP's of any kind, because in the real world and in most fantasy world's, people aren't equal is a fact of life. Usually the villain or antagonist are suppose to be the best, but that doesn't mean that they will win, in fact they usually die in the end. But that's not the main point, so I'll leave it at I wish more people would let people follow the rule 'no god modding' while also not butchering their ideas of their character by being overly picky.

I have written sacrificial lambs before, it helps when you're the GM for a RP, and you have most of the plot written down in your mind before hand. I actually love character death, and suffering. Dark drama is what I live for. And I've never had a problem with writing villain's characters or good characters, meant to eventually die. My fiction usually has wonderful body counts. I'm never been selfish to keep my creation if it meant making the story better as a result. But it's a lot easier when you're RPing with friends.

Depending how you want to write the death, you can as someone already mentioned, create 'death flags' for the characters, though sometimes unpredictability is better than heavily foreshadowed death. It's hard to really hard to say exactly, how I write them, because it varies wildly depending on what I'm writing for. Never make it too obvious or it won't be any fun. I usually tend to avoid deaths that can be seen coming a mile away like being very old or being very sick. Usually making the character suffer and dragging out their struggle not to die, helps add to emotional weight. Though, quick and abrupt can work just well. If you're not the GM or at least the CO-GM of a RP, make sure they know. In fact, I'm actually thinking about doing something similar in a RP, I just joined. But I digress.

Good luck with writing. :3

Descendants Reform School

@KindledBeast
Jay looked up at the student, quite surprised to hear someone addressing him. Seeing that he was sitting next to him too. Though he thought the question was sort of a stupid one, wondering if the student was being sarcastic. He decided that he didn't really care and responded politely. "I'm here for class..."

Descendants Reform School

@KatherinWinter
Leo gave his sister a confident grin, as he was sure of one thing that he could get the baggage in a room without difficultly. As he watched and took the key with his sister and started to use his powers to make leg muscles become stronger. "Just go to class, I'll be there on time." Leo assured, and with that Leo quickly took off to the staircase, hoping she'd just head to class as he sprinted to his destination while the appropriate music played his head. "Hopefully she'll understand..." Leo thought already running up another floor's worth of stairs.

Inigo wasn't very pleased with absolutely no responses from anyone of them, not even a mere look his direction. "Damn kids, don't know how to respect their elders." He complains inside his mind. Inigo turned his head away in disgust. "Hmph, if I had taken a chunk out of them, then they'd pay attention to me, the little twerps." Inigo mutters under his breath, turning his attention to them once again glaring at the three students because he didn't have any thing better to do.

Meanwhile, Jay continued to stare down at his desk wondering why class was taking so long to start, the teacher hadn't arrived yet and it was five minutes until the class started.

What's Got You Up At This Hour?

I'm usually up till 1-2 am. Been up till 5-6 am a lot recently. Sleep is for the weak. (and normal.)

So screw that. :D (I don't really have any legit reason to be up right now...)

Let's Gush!

Spent time with a friend I haven't seen in a long time, and had a really good time today, and my month (past 30 some days) has been quite enjoyable overall.
