1. Puckamon It's even better than what it pokes fun at, which was already a series I kinda liked some. 2. Okedoke! La Leyenda Mexicana Fart jokes aside, I loved the humor in this game. The presentation makes me nostalgic for playing RPGs on my GameBoy Color. Senor Death is my favorite character -- ...

I have a problem when someone makes a pun, even a good one, and potholes it to Incredibly Lame Pun (which is meant for when a pun in-universe is both considered bad and remarked upon as such). Other times the tropers just make obscure references to anime I've never heard of/weird sexual slang and po...

Re: The TV Tropes Awareness Thread

My personal experience with Tropes, for those curious, started when I got linked to the Grand List of Console RPG Clichés from Rinku's lengthy Septaweekly OHR article, whose link eludes me for the moment. It was surprisingly fun looking at all these often-used plot devices and gameplay quirks and s...

Nathan, I didn't know you were a troper! I became one about a year after the site became really widely known in the OHR community (thanks in part to Joe Man). I read a few articles, remembering the meanings of Staff Chick, Five Man Band, Nintendo Hard, and SNK Boss. After these terms worked their w...

All the races I have NPC graphics for have different characteristics between the sexes, the dwarves' are just the hardest to notice. Humans, elves, dwarves, wolves, cats, and raccoons all have females with altered torsos (narrower in the mid region, often narrower overall). Female humans and elves h...

I'm not against you guys doing this (and it wouldn't matter if I was), but I'm not going to go if you do.

Elves and dwarves. Good fantasy has elves and dwarves. (What, no gnome love?)

A man can't decide that he's actually a woman, and even though he can undergo surgery to change what he looks and feels like, he'll still be a man because a man is what God made him. Same kinda thing as how I can't just start calling myself a raccoon and expect people to accept that I am a raccoon. ...

Wow, what an interesting thread. Just to screw things up a little more, if gender is so definite, then what about transgender people? Are they defined as whatever gender they were before? Yes, your original birth sex is the one that determines which gender's pronouns you're supposed to have(no matt...

I like how utterly frightening their interpretation of Kirby is.

Most of the things about this series didn't scare me or creep me out so much as come across depressingly.

Costuming was really good.

I've got graphics, and I chose some music, but I got stuck there. Not a single movement scripted, not a single line of text written.

I really think I jumped into this one too soon after the fangame contest. All my creativity's burned out.

I started by copying, pixel for pixel, the graphics from Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening , Pokemon Yellow , and Dragon Warrior I & II for the Game Boy. This was back in 2000; I'd been playing with Paint for years, but ripping those sprites, editing them, and making mock-up screenshots was the ...
