Re: [ScaleGarden] Rhode's Fortress

ScaleGarden needs to stop this Story Rape BS.
You're right, he should be the same as every other cheap rpg mker producer and just make random game over rape crap, that would be so much better than something actually interesting and unique.

Re: [ScaleGarden] Rhode's Fortress

While I didn't really enjoy the game as much as I could have, Rhode was easily the hottest yet ^^

I've said it before, and I'll say it again: ScaleGarden needs to stop this Story Rape BS. It's got to be the least involved way of making something. Or at the very least, make it something that can be avoided, albeit very very difficultly.

Less ugly enemies too. I know it's intentional, but come on. Never heard of the handsome rogue type?
I actually second this. It is way hotter to see her get raped, if you could have actually avoided it by being stronger. Just like in real life. Also Games where you can stay virgin are at least worth a second run for the challenge.

Ah, ah, ah! You can't just focus on one part of what I said, if you're not prepared to take the whole thing in its entirety! And before you even mention the Story Rape aspect, bear it in mind that I said "as much as I could have", thereby informing you that I did, in fact enjoy aspects of this game.

... The sheer asininity of your statement shocks me in that you're seeing things I never wrote or even thought. Story Rape hasn't been interesting or unique since he started work on his second game.

It still qualifies as valid, though. I don't think it's a good way of telling a story, but evidently you do. I'm not saying he "should do this, because I say so", I'm phrasing it as strongly worded advice. He can keep his Story Rape mechanic, but I feel it's lacking the hard-to-achieve way out that I alluded to earlier.

Next time, instead of bashing my opinion, how about you try something a little more constructive and take it all in instead of one piece? And saying your post struck as asinine isn't bashing. It's my way of saying "Stop putting words in my mouth".

Re: [ScaleGarden] Rhode's Fortress

I might. Question Mark?
I kind of still need to finish Sankegi no Gear, but that one already has a translation(although they admitted that they messed up on the POV in the dialogue)
Yeah, Monkeyman admited to that later on, seems the character speaks to itself or something, which would save everyone a lot of time if the author put that between ()'s like it's usually done (and did before).

But it's all good, it still all makes sense, might just not have the depth it should, with that said, I also think blackmail > rape but eh, used to this type of stories, Rhodes Fortress had a really weak one tho, in fact, I think the story of their games is getting worst and worst from Seiren to Rhodes.

Oh, oh, oh! In fact i can. Takes one stupid phrase to invalidate a wall-o-text.

But you're smart, i'm sure you'll understand it someday...maybe.

Re: [ScaleGarden] Rhode's Fortress

You just did it again and your mimicry further affirms my view of asininity on your part.

I spaced it out nicely, so it wasn't really a text wall. Wall implies solidity - no spaces or breaks.

Insults? Really? Casting aspersions on my intelligence like that, while you rampantly forget basic grammar. Referring to yourself as "i", when it should be "I". Capitalise. Also, though common "takes" is not a valid sentence opener.

Focusing on one single, solitary part of a "wall-o-text" as you seem to call a longer post that uses the structure of paragraphs renders your view invalid, contrary to what you may think. You just said that I may have had some good, interesting points, but you couldn't care less because of your limited attention span.

Look, before we both get bawled out and told to take it to another thread I just want to say we got hideously off-topic because of your confrontational personality. Let's get back on-topic. I don't care for the Story Rape mechanic and you do. Leave it at that.

How about we not get into pointless bickering?

Re: [ScaleGarden] Rhode's Fortress

The game, as a story is good. I love the artwork as well.
As a technical expression of a game, it's perfect, with the player being given some freedom at a specific point. My only quibble as I keep saying are the mechanics. If it works for SG and drums up sales, then good for them. To reach a wider audience I just think a couple of things need changing, not removal.

All the same, I am looking forward to seeing what they give us next - and hope to the gods of coding that they don't feel so constrained as to remove so much content that it feels half-done like Saki Quest. I liked SoG, because there was actually a lot to do in Free Mode.

Rhode's hotness only counts for so much, on the other hand. Usually it takes me 3-4 playthroughs to find even half the stuff. I got 99% of this in two go-arounds. I know time is always a factor (and it did take them YEARS to give us this) but I do hope they're more comfortable with RPGMXP to not have to cut stuff out.

Their art is beautiful, and such detail takes a long time, that's true. And this is why I really hope it's not a two-man show. Having finished SoG, I noticed about 3 or 4 different names. Probably typical, but perhaps it's time for them to expand.

* Should I be calling it Sangeki no Gear, or Flash-Strike Gear? I've been wondering that.

God that would be awesome and make my year. I love scale gardens stuff so much and it was always a pain to use the AGTH translation.
I think its pretty sad only SoG got translated, but I guess there aren't many translators out there and ressources are spread thin (I guess most of them will gather for AA2's release next week)

Yeah, Monkeyman admited to that later on, seems the character speaks to itself or something, which would save everyone a lot of time if the author put that between ()'s like it's usually done (and did before).

Hah! I for one think rhodes story was the best yet. SoG had the best content, wish they wouldve tried the same with rode, but I didn't like the story overall.
Seiren had a good story too in my opinion, it felt quite original. Scales Art really improved since then. (Damn that has been ages ago, also with AGTH translation - but finishing it felt satisfying.)

It's the same in Sirens' Harp. The stuff in parenthesis is what she's thinking at the time, in the scene, but she's also narrating the story in first person.

It's the difference between:
(Eeek, he's grabbed my tits!)
vs.
And then, he grabbed my tits!

Re: [ScaleGarden] Rhode's Fortress

When the game goes to "free mode" after the exploration of the secret tunnel under the fort, is it necessary to do all available events in order to progress? Or do I only need to make a certain number of days pass?

The events I've found are getting repetitive and I don't know if I just need to keep that up or if I need to explore the rest of the fort for things I haven't done yet.

Okay, turned out I needed to duel the fort... captain... guy, whoever he is. I had been avoiding that in favor of trying to do lewd things.

Re: [ScaleGarden] Rhode's Fortress

This post ain't related to the game but I don't know where to post this news regarding the Scalegarden's new project so I'll just post it here instead. It seems he's started on making his next project and you can check his site for the new update here:



Only thing posted is his current design for the new heroine. From what I got from google translate it seems he wants to try a black haired heroine that's kinda innocent and there's something regarding her tits(probably the size). Well I just hope it has more h-content than the last one but I guess it'll take another 2-3 years at most before we find out.
