jpegurl: tbf this is pretty heartwrenching without context too
well that’s good to hear, sorta hard to tell how much I’m getting carried around by Plot Information sometimes
it’s a pity FFXIV is an MMO (and narratively a kind’ve clunky one at that, I love it and it’s plot, and it deserves the praise it’s gotten but there is a lot of wind up and filler, especially in earlier expacs) and as a result a lot of people, very understandably, avoid it on principle, hohoho
My favorite panorama in the game is the one you can find deeper in the TV maze! Surprisingly, I drew it all with a mouse.
This NPC was originally going to be killable, but I didn’t program it right.
@cachicordova found it as a bug, but was like “No keep the squish immortal” and I agreed, so now he’s the immortal squish. :0c
Here’s my favorite character in the game (small spoiler since he’s hard to find):
The character in the warlock room, Valerius! He’s a Dn’D OC I came up with for a campaign, but never used since the campaigns never took off (oh well). Design wise, he’s a rip off of another OC of mine if he looks familiar.
He has the most dialogue in the game since I just like writing my characters and was like “welp my yume game my city now”. It’s also why he has the most detailed panorama in the game as well. He’s one of the few characters in game with a concrete backstory for now:
There’s a miniboss I can “fight” down in NES World, there’s vending machines I can buy useless soda from, there’s bathrooms I can walk into, there’s funny animations from the mall NPCs when I talk to them... that’s some of the fun stuff that helps each world stand out from each other! Don’t forget to make the world you’re roaming around in feel like something you can interact with as well as explore!
hey! i've been following your progress on lull away for a while now and i just wanted to say it's looking really dang good! the colors especially are seriously nice to look at *o* good luck with your development!
/sad waving from hector’s side/ team fe7 put up a great fight & made it pretty far at least
one consolation: you just KNOW at least one person out there if not more will draw eliwood hugging his two best friends and tearing up from how PROUD he is of how hard they fought ;~;
