It's not really rivalry. It's just that some characters don't get along with others. Oriens is the only one who wouldn't get into fights for that reason. he is merely test Kairi because he, as well as Rin, believe that Kairi will play an important role in all this.
First off, don't worry about your absence. I completely understand. It just gets sort of lonely when nobody else is contributing ideas. As for your idea with the eclipse, it's kinda like a love/hate scenario for me. I have four issues with your idea. here is what came to mind first. I don't think that the KH moon gravitates around planets, heck I'm not even sure if it is really even a true moon. I think it just has a moon-like appearance. If you remember, the yellow moon in TWTNW, stayed put and pretty much was just a floating object inside of the world. I think that these moons only linger in space, I don't think they revolve around anything. If this is true, then it makes your idea problematic. My second issue is that I don't think I would be able to get over an eclipse that was caused by a heart shaped moon. just thinking how that would look kinda seems a tad lame, no offense. The third issue here is that an eclipse will simply cause a shadow to roam across the land. That prevents the world from getting dimmer as the moon draws ever closer. A moving shadow would also would be very noticeable. So the plot twist would be easily ruined. My final issue is the lamest of them all, but I feel that an eclipse would kinda kill the name of the world as well as idea of the sun being like a candle going out. Despite these issues I like your idea of having a sort of plot twist, I just feel we need to work with it a little. I think we should keep the sun so that it always is halfway to lowering below the horizon. I also think that we should keep the moon in a single place. So then how does the sunset? It would simply just go out. It would be just like blowing out a candle. Edit: We'll have to play around with the element thing. I think we should try to avoid making the keybladers like the org as much as possible. I also think that Kairi should be on bad terms with Eclipse. Kairi should also get into fights with Oriens, but only because Oriens is testing her. Riku should be on bad terms with Blaze and Turpis. which leaves Rin and Xehanort for Sora.
I'm no expert, but I would have to say that being depressed for 15 weeks is a sure sign of depression. The only advice I have here is for you to go back and talk to your teacher again. the worst thing you can do when you depressed is to not talk to someone. I highly advise you to speak with you're parents. It's a parent's job to be there for their child when they really need it. You can't really just become un-depressed unfortunately. Getting rid of depression is something that you need to work at. You need to talk to people and you need to do it consistently in order to feel better. I you are suffering from depression, then 6 talks that last like, what 30 minutes? well 6 of those aren't going to help you at all. you need to make the effort to continue those talks until you feel better. And when you do finally feel better you need to continue going to those talks for little more than a month. If your depression comes back, then you start having talks again. that is the best way to fight depression. You need to work at it.
hmm... this is kinda a though one for me to give help on, at least in certain aspects it is. First thing that comes to mind is that there are underlying issues here that you are neglecting to talk about. These issues are probably personal issues, and they could be either something that you are aware of or something that is unconsciously affecting you. If there are other issues going on, then I won't pressure you to mention anything. Like I said, chances are that these are personally issues. however, I will say this, I could probably be of more help if you did say something. If there are no underlying issues here that you can think of, then my next guess would be that you are almost in middle school, or you are in middle school already. The reason why I think this is because people can just be plain nasty in middle school. I don't know about you, but for me middle school was h***. I literally only had one friend in middle school because nobody wanted to be my friend. Everybody made fun of me for everything I did and said. Sometimes they even attempted to physically attack me. Along with all the teasing, I had many personally issues going on at home, and let's not forget that around that age you start undergoing all sort of changes physically and mentally, so it was like I was being attacked nonstop. I left quite an impact on me, those three years that I spent in middle school. I am currently almost 21 and I'm still trying to get over some of the things that happened to me. but anyway, all I'm suggesting here is that the reason for everything that is happening to you could be because of your age range. The best suggestion I have for you here is to talk to your parents. They can be the best people to go to when you are feeling down. I'm a guy who is practically an adult here, and I still talk to my parents when I'm having problems that I can't work out myself. It helps a great deal! As for the running away part, Don't. Trust me, you will not be better off by running away. You are much better if you stay put. I really don't have much else to say here. I would need more information in order to give any good suggestions.
A fire can create chaos. think of a forest fire. that is the only reason that I suggested Blaze. Oh, yeah, these are not keyblade masters so they don't have an element, they just stand for an ideal. So Blaze would stand for the idea of chaos. he would be the opposite of Rin of represents order. Both of them are good people, but they have different ways of getting their methods done. Blaze is more of what they call an anti-Hero, while Rin sticks to the rules. Rin's number one rule is "no meddling in the affairs of other worlds". This is a rule that Blaze would break all the time, but not to help those that live in those worlds (like sora does). Blaze is more like I'll need to save the universe as fast as possible and by any means possible. This kind of thinking leads to reckless decisions and it also puts those that get involved with him in danger.
actually, they don't represent dawn in the least. they probably represent light more than anything else, or even better, a light going out. fades would work best for them. I'm all for fades, as in a fading light. k got it
Ok I have keyblader names here. Hope/faith = Oriens(Latin for sunrise), curruption = Turpis (Latin for foul, ugly, morally corrupt), order = Rin (I think Rin is a better name than Rai. Rin sound more authoritative), Chaos = Blaze (fire makes chaos, and Blaze is just a cool name), and finally for despair = Eclipse (I nice name I think. the loss of the sun during an eclipse is symbolic for despair). So there you have it. these are the names I like. Oriens, Turpis, Rin, Blaze, and Eclipse. what do you all think?
yeah, but it's a bit repetitive. That's the whole reason why we are introducing new keybladers, is to make up for lose of the organization. fighting the different keybladers will make for some epic boss battles, just like the org boss battles. plus The Legion is a Ghost Rider villain. "We are many, but we are one" is his line. It would also move us away from the path that we have already set for the story. It's a good idea, but it could involve entirely rethinking the story plot. I'm also not convinced that devives would be the strongest type. devives are a heart combined with a body and soul that is nearly compatible. but because they are not completely compatible, the devives' three elements of life probably wouldn't work as well together as the three elements of life in a normal desoul. however seeing that a devive creation involves a nobody, it means that they originally had a strong heart. that being the case devives are still up there when it comes to power, but they are not all the way up there. As of right now, I would have to say that a dehero would stand among the strongest type of desoul because they have a strong heart and all three elements of life are fully compatible. As for devives being connected, I don't think that this would go too far. Since the conditions that create a devive rarely happen, most devives would have only one counterpart. And even if it wasn't a rare event, I don't think that their minds would be connected. I believe that the mind resides in the soul. I think this is the case since Nobodies, unlike heartless, are intelligent. granted this could also mean that the mind resides in the body, but I think it is more likely to reside in the soul since, after all, the body is only a vessel. I'm not even sure if devives hearts would be connected. there would be some sort of attraction between a devive and its counterpart(s), but I think that that is probably it.
It looks great! what did you use to make it? I think that all it could use is a small silhouette of a village along with the chapel as well. I think that this town should only have desouls in it like how twilight town only had nobodys (not counting Final mix version and CoM)
It's ok, that's would be interesting to see as well! I'll check it in a sec. I was thinking of a chapel as well. Oooo you know what would be interesting? there should be something special about it though, like something in it or at the top of the tower.
It's been very quiet recently.... well.... hmm.... we are pretty much done here with the desouls. well almost done. How should it look like when they appear they appear? And what should be the name of the most common form?
Oot 2D was in the works, but half way through, the guy working on it decided to call it quits and to avoid the backlash from the fans that had been patiently waiting, he faked his death. eventually people realized that he faked it, and then everyone got pissed. He was 15 and went by the name Dampe online. Me, I'm nearly 21 and I'm Majoring in Game Design. So something like this would look great for my portfolio. again, if anyone knows where I can locate sprites, I'd be grateful if you let me know. btw, thanks for the tip
I think you should just say that it just slipped. that way he'll know that it was accident but at the same time he'll still feel good somewhat because he'll think he is getting that much closer with connecting with you in that way.
thanks for the update Mike. sounds interesting.
As the title states, I've may attempt to reconstruct the Majora's Mask in 2D. I know a Majora's Mask 2D project is "supposedly" already in the works by someone else, but I just though, heck why not beat him to the punch. I will probably attempt to make it in Game Maker. It's my first time using it, but I'll figure things out. right now I'm working on sprites. I have no idea how long that may take with everything else that needs working on in my life. But I think I can do this. After the sprites I plan to do the levels first. I downloaded a strategy guide online that gives me detailed top down views of the map. so I'm pretty much set on that. If anyone knows where I can find some sprites I'd very much appreciate it if they let me know. At the moment my biggest challenge here is making the sprites. I'm not very keen on the idea of having to make them all. So any help here and I'll be very grateful. Also, if anyone knows of a way for me to take a look at the code for the game, I'd like to know. That would help a great bunch. I am a decent programmer, but not a fabulous one. so a look at their code would help.
You made a design for Highnoon Hamlet?! I'm excited to see it! Did Twilight town and Traverse town both have a sort of tower? Traverse town had like a bell tower and Twilight had the clock. I remember them both having something like it when ever I think of Highnoon Hamlet I think of looking above me, out of a window near the ceiling of a tower. The Sun is shining through that window. I've been thinking that is could be where that light keyhole for Kairi could appear. What sort tower should we have here I wonder? I imagine the tower having a dome.
Wow, this is an old topic that I started, I'm surprised it came back to life. anyway, yeah I know, I don't think Axel is Reno anymore.
Hey, it gives me something to do with my life, sad as that is T_T..... we have a wiki site where we post everything. There is a lot less there to read.
Ok, Xehanort - X = ehanort which is an anagram of "No heart" I'm not too sure about Paradise. Here's my thoughts here. despair = no hope + Y = Yophone, Nyopheo, Nypoheo, Phyoneo, something along those lines.... corruption = corrupt = impure = Not pure + Z = Tuzprone don't know how to pronounce that..... so the bad keybladers add either x, y, or z. Order = is law + T= Twasil, Twisal, Twilsa, Twalsi, i don't know. Chaos = a wreck + U = Krawecu ????? Hope = is faith + v = Fivistha, I don't know I'm not sure how to pronounce any of these made up names Oh, and it would probably take longer than summer break to make a game like this. I'm a decent programmer, but I don't know if I would be able to program something like this. then again, this is my major, so I may be able to meet someone who is interested in programming such a game. but like I said before, as of right now I'm not ready to consider making such a game. maybe someday, but not today. Hmm.. interesting. Lets play on this some more and see where it takes us. Edit: Ok I have keyblader names here. Hope/faith = Oriens(Latin for sunrise), curruption = Turpis (Latin for foul, ugly, morally corrupt), order = Rin (I think Rin is a better name than Rai. Rin sound more authoritative), Chaos = Blaze (fire makes chaos, and Blaze is just a cool name), and finally for despair = Eclipse (It's nice name for someone who represents despair, I think. the loss of the sun during an eclipse is symbolic for despair). So there you have it. these are the names I like. Oriens, Turpis, Rin, Blaze, and Eclipse. what do you all think?
I think it sounds pretty interesting, It's kinda like the bosses are going Hulk lolz.
