Let''s not forget Nintendo''s patent on killing things by jumping on them, or Id''s intellectual property rights over first-person shooters.

Say, Siolis, is this going to be the absurdly difficult game you''ve been discussing in another thread? If that''s the case, then I think you should randomly booby-trap some crystals. You put them into the weapon and there''s a 25% chance it''ll boost your stats, a 25% chance it''ll lower them, a 25% chance it''ll destroy the weapon, and a 25% chance it''ll kill you.

FFS you ass.

Did i say song, no.

Did i say clip of song, no.

Did i say anything else in the english language and beyond, no.

Did i say anything more than the original fucking example given by the post which this has to do with, no i didn''t.

HENCE why i fucking wrote what i did, i didn''t refer to any of the above except the original question about that one thing that one guy was looking to do, you fuck wit.

He was looking to combine, one word with anouter word, we have established that the original word was not copy writed or trade marked and that the resulting word would be a brand new word no one on earth owns hence the discussion about that is well and truly over and one with, stop posting about it or go make a spam thread for it ffs.

People like piss me off dramatically and if i could i would send the lot of you to hell for eternal torment for annoying me with pointless crap.

Calm down dear. It''s a commercial.

Whatever.

And to all others, whatever.

Do you expect your game to take off when you are just leeching off other games? I know so many people that would just get pissed off from seeing the same thing in your game as other huge rpgs. You should take the time it takes to make your own system.

If you are just looking to get around copyright laws, then your game will suck. Period.

Ok you don''t get it.

What I''m doing is not copying other games, I''m fixing them.

Rpgs like final fantasy have some good systems in them but they have some major flaws, I''m taking several systems from several games giving them an update, fixing their flaws and meshing them together to make a new system and a new story line + my own perspective on my own system which has never been done before.

This thread is talking about the prospect that as I''m using about 10 other different system elements then how likely is it that i can be sued for using things like spells crystals ala ff7 and terminology like guardian forces.

I''m not simply going to use like ff8s draw and junction system and nothing else effectively making ff8 with a new story line.

And btw, make sure you know what I''m doing by asking nicely before you go off on a "your game will suck" rant.

Alright alright I''m sorry for asuming and going on the your game will suck rant, but I still don''t understand the overall purpose for this. If you are just modifying older systems then what would you use it for? If it was mentioned sorry about overlooking it. There were a lot of nasty posts I skipped over.

Well have you ever noticed that, in final fantasy games in particular, they use one system like the junctioning system from FF8 then didn''t ever use it again, then they made FF10 with the sphere system which wont be in FF12. Well think about all the Final fantasy games thus far and what you liked about them, how would you enjoy playing a game which takes the best bits of all the systems plus bits from others and makes a hybrid system which contains all the most best bits from all of the other games with {hopefully} none of the drawbacks or flaws to game play.

I''m working to make that game.

This is a rather egotistic statement. Do you have any skills in any writing languages? Do you have a portfolio? Are you capable of designing a thorough system that beats the systems that professionals created?

It''s worth noting that these features were all part of entire systems, and a lot of the coincident game design facilitated their use. An attempt to "Frankenstein" the perfect system is analogous to taking the sweetest part of every car--the off-road capability of a Land Rover, the high-performance engine of a Porsche, the giant gun of an Abrahms tank, etc.--and sticking them all on the chassis of a reliable Volvo station wagon and expecting the best automobile ever.

I''m obviously overstating the case a little, since all the FF systems shared the same basic objectives, but even if you try to Frankenstein a sports car with components of all the fastest, most maneuverable autos on the road, you''d run into serious problems. I hope you put a great deal of thought into what to steal and what to leave behind, and aren''t afraid to innovate a little in between.

I know how annoying it is to nit-pick about spelling, but since this appears to be your signature, and appears on all your posts, you should know that the word is spelled "genre". Unless your using a Linnaean taxonomy system, that is, in which case your spelling is right, but your word choice is incorrect, since "genera" is the plural of "genus". I also take issue with your use of the overly specific verb "rewrite", but I won''t go any further than that. It''s your signature.

Ok now your pissing me off, why is it that some people ya know, encourage me, help me, advise me and then people like you show up and question me, poke me, prod me with stupid and irrelevant questions.

I believe i have the ability to make something better than them, i can see flaws which others agree with me that they are flaws, I''m told by Professionals {away from this site in collage and uni btw} that i have the ability to take myself as far as i want, why is it that as soon as i announce my intension''s, as soon as i try to say "Hay you know what, i might be able to do something hear which could make a name for myself" people like you show up and start asking stupid questions and make statements like "Oh they were professionals, we dont know shit about you but hell we can and will try and burst you bubble and tell you, you cant beat other people who have done this before."

Your kind make me sick, you just dont seem to relies that everyone starts somewhere, some aim low, some high, some win, some lose, I''m aiming high and I''m trying my hardest to win at this game, i dont need to prove shit to some little shit that likes to claim it cant be done before ive even tried.

Fuck you man!
