Critics' Lounge / Re: Filling up my background
Wed 20/06/2007 09:36:14
It needs some colder tones into it, shadows for example, then it wouldn't be so dull. There is a lot of potential in this.

Why not just a hand in various gestures. Talking would be a hand showing a badge for example - übercool.
But then again, I now looked at your grafix and I think that a hand would be a bit hard for you to produce and it wouldn't match the overall style of the game. There is nothing worse than a bad mix of styles. For your case, I suggest nightstick or the most practical and universal of them all -- an arrow.

Synth pop like italo pop? Heh, I love that! I'm probably going to enter into this one!

General Discussion / Re: London 2012 logo
Sun 17/06/2007 12:01:50
Ugh... Ok, I see yellow and whats that other colour? Red? No. Purple? No. Eyecatching indeed, next time they should use blood and a penis for the logo, that would be even more eyecatching.

Designers world is so fake in todays world. I remember when they did a logo for Estonian capital Tallinn, they used a city silhouette that was copied right off from the well-famous canned fish label. Shure it cost alot, but there is no doubt it was just scanned and copied, people started asking afterwards where are the newer buildings in the silhouette... That leads me to conclusion that every designer must attend somekind of art school first, like drawing, so they could learn how not to be so lazy.

Heck, I feel depressed too, alot, thought about suicides, but heck I don't get much relief in depressing music, so I don't consider myself an emo. I am just the one who needs a psychologist. Now lots of emos, in my mind, don't need a psych. "All the pain of the world is inside me" and all that crap, I just don't buy it, thats a fake one. If a person feels depressed, he doesn't talk like this and start imitating some band after that, he does stuff of his own.
Ofcourse I may be wrong and that is just my subjective opinion, so no offence to anyone etc.

Hmpf, such a complicated wireframe  :o Changing/animating it would be quite a task I think. You shure could have saved some polys. Whats with the upside pentagram texture?

Ok, I am not making a new thread for this, I just hope I post to the right place.
I've been buzy and away from adventure gaming for a while and could use some help with finding a good game(s). What I need, is a game with decent/good graphics and some storyline, preferrably freeware and the best if AGS (doesn't have to). Any suggestions? Sci-fi and western games are the best!

Everything is nice, exept that it still lacks some depth. Add some sky tones to the front, some highlights to the front tree. Currently you have everything its separate colour. The thing with real nature is that everything reflects on everything, so the whole picture should share the same tones. House highlights a bit yellowish etc. Cars bumper is what annoys me the most, the far side of it should be darker and remember to share tones. Colours are big part of the atmosphere, you know, and its good to keep it all together.

Add some tattoos and he looks like Michael Scofield.

I think it looks good enough when you are not going to have top-notch graphics for backgrounds. Still, the outlines could be bit darker so they would actually have some more use.

From what century is he? If he is from today, he could look much like anyone... But if he is from 19-th century or something, you should lose that gray sleeveless shirt and such shiny belt. I suggest pulling his pants bit higher up, make them more brownish than blueish and add some fat galluses or strings holding his pants up.

Godfather probably has nothing that Mafia doesn't have, and there are many years between... Doesn't that say that Godfather is just a ripoff with no progress at all? Yes it does, case solved.

I've always had a preference for dark hair, although more importantly, I prefer the natural hair colour.

bla bla

I prefer boobs. Camon guys, which do you notice first, boobs or hair?

All of you telescopers, anyone seen some UFOs?

Todays society was exactly my point. Yes, every human has some deeper state but not in such extension as emos.
You ever wonder why such subcultures only rule in certain societies, like rich white kid societies for example? There are proabbly not much emos in Brazilian slums or in Brooklyn ghettos, instead of lifestyle, what we white kids use to have, they have life - true culture that has grown from actual condition of society. Look at hip-hop for example. European and American hip-hop is completely different, and there is rich kids mainstream and more abstract hip hop, often called as underground hip hop which rich white trash has fakely obtained too. So, such things as hip-hop, emo etc , that are often called as lifestyles, are more like hobbies for fat western kid whose physical and emotional states are perfect, so balanced that the kid doesn't know what to do anymore and invents some emotional state or culture inspired by others. Because in nature, practical conditions do all the guidance. True people do not need to act out their emotional states -- they live it.
Romanticism indeed can be compared to emo state, but I would compare it more with hippies :D

What are they posing as?

Your attitude is all well and good, but it is a gnerecic dismissal, which i doubt you can back up. Any group of people who follow a fashion trend could be called a poser, why single out emos?

No Grown up Emos? Emos are teenagers because teenagers have to deal with growing up, changing and finding out about themselves, issues which adults don't have, to a certain extent.  For some people, listening to sad music and dressing a certain way is an outlet. Certainley a healthier one than putting on a hoody and mugging someone.
One thing is to wear some clothes, whats considered fashion (a business propaganda of big cloth corporations), different issue is to extend it to behavior by denying self. Shure its about finding out in a teenage period but that only leads to that people have too much free time. Sobing about some deep emotional state is just a nitpick, an excuse. If you have something important to do, you forget about your deeper state and discover that you are absolutely ok. You ever go to the movies? You know sometimes the film may be so interesting that you forget you have to cough since you are ill. Nature is based on physical acts and physical acts construct the emotional state, so, some hobbies or a work doesn't do any bad.
I am not saying emos are bad, I don't care much really. I am just trying to say that a person may lose something, make a wrong desicion because he/she is being confused with that "emo-state". I am too young to be a parent, but maybe some fathers here can say a word what they would think if their kid turns emo and starts writin suicidal poems that one day turn into just a fake act.

Emos are posers, end of topic. Besides, you know any grown up emo? Romanticism was among the adults too, you know.
#376
Well, especially since we have already found Earth-like planet, I believe there is life out there. Otherwise it would be an awful waste of space, as someone said...

Mafia is a biog breakthrough in game development industries, it was probably the best game in its time. While GTA is just a bunch of graphics whooped together into some city, Mafia actually has some well thought gameplay and a great storyline. GTA is just boring.

Ideal adventure game would be the one where EVERY accesable object can be used, so they player definately needs to think which objects to use and not just try everyhting (endless combinations). Its the game about real logic and one step closer to real life.
