  1. So I’ve recently been thinking about game mechanics(for a theoretical Game I have neither the Time Money or Skills to actually produce but yet am designing anyways) and want to know if anyone wanted to hear my ideas… and/or see some UI designs I made for this Theoretical Project with a Whose Name I kinda want to change because it feels weird but I guess Death Stranding can exist so whatever.

      • well first of all you have a single pool functioning as HP and MP, Energy. when performing any action(moving and basic attacks included) you spend energy, which regenerates constantly. attack inflicts wounds which lower the cap you can regenerate to, and healing magic restores a bit of energy but also heals some of the wounds.

  2. Do any of you like the litten line’s shinies? I think they’re weird and could be much better, but they’re the colours of the Polish Flag, so I like them for that

      • Easy
        B: Rock Wrecker: Charged projectile that can be stored but is treated like a heavy object, it does most damaged if released at critical
        Side: Take Down: a powerful ramming attack that has recoil and brief super armor
        Up B: Drill Run: Wario Corkscrew clone
        Down B: Bulldoze: a stomp attack that interrupts a oncoming attack
        Final Smash: Horn Drill: If preformed at an opponent or group of opponents they get stabbed with a powerful drill garuentee to do high damage and high knock back

      • Hmmmmmm

        B: Psyshock: sends out a blast of psionic energy
        Side B: Dizzy Punch: a punch that stuns for a second
        Up B: Psychic: a psychic aura surrounds its for a few seconds and lifts you up
        Down B: Reflect: projects two walls that deflects projectiles
        Final Smash Reunion Ravage: Summons other Reunicles and they focus their psychic powers together forming a powerful blast

  3. Continuing from a previous chain- So you also have 3 stats, Attack Defense and Speed. you also have derived stats such as Evasion Accuracy Guard and Counter. you can equip 7 weapons to your actual weapon through a binding system and 3 sub weapons to a sub weapon, 7 armors to your armor and 7 accessories.

  4. I missed all of the pre-order opportunities for the SNES Classic because I was in class at the time. Thank you, based Nintendo.

    • I love how we must call each slightly changed depiction of an imagery ‘censorship’. German Nazis burned down whole libraries and banned thousands of titles, that’s actual censorship.

        • Censorship is about the oppression of a single opinion or view someone has. Changing a box art of a video game by replacing one thing by another isn’t censorship. Nobody is oppressing your opinion of Mexicans, it’s still in the game, you can do whatever you want with it and you certainly won’t face legal repercussions. So no, it’s not censorship.

          • Did you forget that censoring swear words and nudity is a thing? Censoring faces of people that don’t want to be shown in tv? You call that censorship, because the word has diffrent but in ways meaning. It’s like not calling cold an illness cause you won’t die.

        • Of course, but I feel it’s so misused nowadays that people cry for every single thing that changes, that people tend to forget what censorship is really about. Not being able to stroke the tits of a 14 year old video game character isn’t about denying you rights and opinions, it’s about changing what it seen morally decent by different demographics. And something like what Saudia Arabia does is on a whole different level compared to some of this video game ‘censorship’.

        • Oh. That’s probably wise. Mario in a sumbrero is kinda shakey without proper context and can’t really show if the culture being appropriated is being treated with any kind of respect or if it’s just being offensive

          • I mean, isn’t that too much? It was a small picturei n the bottom corner. Not meican people wearing mexican outfit has been in diffrent media for years and it shouldn’t be that big of a deal
