One Piece rant:

Man, One Piece is reaaaaaally starting to drag on. I know that Oda is stalling so chapter 800 is a big one, but still... just write an epic fight between Luffy and Dofa, show us Sabo vs. Burgess or have Zoro and Franky's fight go longer so it's not this cat and mouse crap. No more stalling/ Luffy will save us all/ I'll step in until Luffy can fight stuff. It's going on break next week with the promise that Luffy will OHKO Dofa in the next chap. Better happen.

I miss Sanji, Brook and Chopper. There's not enough comedy in the last half of this arc. Usopp can't carry the lols alone. Thank god for Barto. At this point, he's all I'm interested in.

Anyway, rant over. It'll end soon and by chapter 800 the hype will be back. Sunny Go has surely been captured by now. Also, the other Supernovas will have to appear in the next arc, otherwise we'll forget about them. I'd love to see what Crocodile is up to too.
Honestly, when arcs drag on like this, I tend to stop reading and just wait for the arc to finish. *cough Punk Hazard *cough

Oh yeah, Skypeia, damn that whole war just seemed to go forever. The action started quick enough, it just didn't seem to want to end.

I think Oda tends to fall into the trap of bringing in too many characters at once. Things either take way too long to develop or each individual battle just adds up and becomes excessively long. Some arcs have great pacing, others seem really strecthed out.

Generally I forgive poor pacing, unless there's something in the plot that frustrates me. The only time that's really happened though was with some of the Water 7/Enies Lobby plot points that I desperately wanted to see resolved but took forever.
Yeah, lately that seems to be his problem. He needs enough opponents for all the characters. Honestly, if he made another Enies Lobby style arc where it was 9 SHs vs. 9 enemies I'd be pretty happy. Nothing complicated, just some cool fights for a bit. Like Kid, Hawkin, Apoo, Killer and some of their crew members vs. SH's.

With the SH's, Samurai's, Law, Dressrosa citizens, dwarves, Dofa Fam, Coliseum, WG, Revolutionaries, CP0 and Burgess, it was just too much.

I didn't mind Punk Hazard, Vergo was badass. CC was just never threatening enough. We knew Luffy could kick his ass from their first fight.

Punk Hazard exists to inform Dressrosa, and Dressrosa exists to inform Kaido's arc. I tell you - Kaido better be worth the build up he's received.

I want the SH's to be properly pushed - the New World was supposed to be insanely hard, but they've breezed through after only two years training?

Yeah right.

You know, I can't take Hatred Guy or the game serious anymore. I mean, the game is 16.66 bucks, a password in the game is
666
and that ending is just too hilarious. I think that game was intended to be 'so edgy it becomes funny'.
He and Shadow should create a band together.

Here's a question:

If Splatoon was a Mario game with 8-10 playable Mario characters and recognizable map locations/items/guns, do you think it would have sold:

A) Better
B) Worse
C) The Same

And in the same line - would the reviews be different? (identical gameplay but in Mario Universe)

So yesterday Wikia trolled me and pretended to send a virus warning to a phone with too small of a user base and too complicated of programming to get viruses yet. I should have figured it out when it said "message from site", but I get spooked easily.

Wikia, I thought you were better than this.

Reviews would be different, that's for sure.
'Good spin-off, but not the 3D Mario we've been waiting for since Galaxy 2.'
'Where is Wario/Rosalina/Donkey Kong/Nabbit?'

The only selling spin-offs (sports and Party) are Kart, Party and & Sonic (forgetting anything). Whether Mario Splatoon would sell as well as those three or sell as bad as the baseball or football (soccer) games is something I don't know.

The game would have been different then given the different body types of Mario characters. Each character would probably have their own unique ability, which would be appealing to a lot of people. And the flaws the game has such as the gimped features may be looked less severely given Mario has a history of doing fine without them(3D World, NSMB, for example). As for sales, the game might not be pushed as much as Splatoon did given it'd be just another Mario spin off game.

So overall I think the game would've done better in pretty much all aspects except it wouldn't have been marketed as much. Whether it'd have sold more than Splatoon...can't speculate that given we don't know the sales Splatoon will have yet.

The game wouldve been bashed
"50 Shades of Mario"
"Mario with a old new coat of paint ink"
I don't think it would've sold as well though
I wouldn't have bought it pfft

No, Smashboards, I'm not buying a Camry!

. . .I still remember when my train of thought drifted to the idea of :4sonic: driving a Chevy Sonic and mocking Bass driving a Forte. Complete with the phrase, "Disrespect the Machine."

Oh, cars. XD

But mario football is edgy,I thought that was the selling point.
Whenever anything has Mario in it(and not as a cameo/minor appearance), Mario is always the selling point. Always. Applies to pretty much every famous/iconic character.

Hey guys, today I am going to buy my wii u from the nintendo store, but I'm VERY paranoid with online purchases (I know, stupid, but hey). I love if a few of you could please respond and verify this is the correct website for their store. Yes It's pretty obvious it is, but better safe than sorry. I searched nintendo store, and then the first link. https://store.nintendo.com/ng3/

I don't get it.
I got a minor infraction for my Paul Blart picture, after I censored it.

Hi!

A bit inactive lately because i just felt watching Pheonoix Wright lp (which is imo almost like playing it because.....it's linear enough) and I'm actually not even done :)

Though, for my minecraft ressources pack, I was struggling to find tools ideas:

The shovels are pirhana plants
The pickaxes are spiny shells
The axes are boomerang
The hoes are spears

And of course, sword are a mix of hammers and Cortez swords (it is as epic as it sounds.....).

:)

....I actually CAN, but it might be awkward, in fact, I can animate lots of stuff, but it has to be on constant. For the pirhana plant, I'll see what i can do, but I can;t promise it would look good.....
all animations are constant aren't they, I remember back when you used McPatcher to do animation, but before I knew you could write the animation file, so I made a grass animation that I had to copy and paste a whole bunch of frames....but it looked good haha

it'm doing the pack fully manual from a template. So, i overwrites the usuall files manually.

Animations is actually VERY simple. You just pick a squared image (like a single texture) and you have more of these IN THE SAME DIMMENSION

I got pretty far on a texture pack back when you had a majority of the textures on one file and then the your animation was a file named to match a tile on that file then you could write a file to tell it how many ticks each frame lasted

I do my pack fully manuall form a template, I simply overwrites the files as it goes.

Doing animation is VERY simple. You have your texture and a file directing how the animation work. You can decide delay and the loop it does, but if you want uniform loop, it's just very simple.

The thing is you have to have images of the same square dimensions stacked. From top to bottom. I would just insert the image in a new file from gimp (because I'm doing the best quality I can preserve from the ripped textures meaning it';s high res).

Btw, have you actually saw my imgur album of the pack? It has a ton of stuff already made, I think all blocks and UI are mostly done....

i don;t look forward to mobs however.....this is going to be painful....

EDIT: WHAT THE HECK?

ignore my last post.....

EDIT: I don;t think I know how to post, mod, please delete this pontless double post....sorry :(
I'm talking like when minecraft first came out of beta, in order to do animation you needed a third party program called McPatcher and you also needed it to do 32x32 textures too, nowadays you can do textures and sounds and music and all that jazz
