Ignores the rest of the bullshit.

This nigga gets it. Rob states "You are the most powerful human in the world?" with a question mark, this nigga responds to it as if it was a question.

doesn't even have a doorman to bitch to about it.

He can hear the Ukranian refugee prostitutes all night and day through one wall, Ukranian refugee folk singers all night and day through the other wall,

tfw Rob finally has to move out and ends up in an apartment with paper thin walls

Yeah, although I spent WAY too much time creating battle sprites for the Legendary Heroes, common enemies, and important enemies.

Though I hate RPG Maker when I'm not 14 years old.

Eh, I could whip up something very similar in RPG Maker in like a week probably

The "main story" part I got up to was encountering Roamin & Gaary, which I was going to have be a full-fledged fight, then upon winning and entering the Mountains of Norrington, basically mix the Escapist version and the Newgrounds version and figure something out from there.

Err.

Rape a 14 year old blonde girl?

Another issue was that I started making it before S1 of the Escapist version was even finished, so while the goal was still to get the herb to cure Schmoopy's dying grandmother, I had absolutely no idea how to get to that point.

Then again, you can run AD&D 1e or 2e tabletop and have a paladin solo the Nine Hells, slay Asmodeus and marry his daughter by 5th level.

If I were to try to run it as a tabletop RPG, it'd be really easy because I can adjust everything on the fly, but in a video game, where the numbers are pre-determined, I had ZERO clue how to make it flow well without requiring the player to grind like crazy or do a bunch of comedic side quests, with mixed results in t

Unless you just grinded the shit out of random encounters.

So I made so many friggin sidequests not just to put in something entertaining, but to give an excuse for why you would have to go up 10 levels to be able to defeat the ogre from episode 6.

I did a LOT of dialogue with homebrew NPCs and side quests for it because while Ruby is an extremely easy coding language, I had ZERO idea how to effectively balance the power curve.

I did the OG Unforgotten Quest years before this was even announced. ... But with the name Unforgotten Realms, as a turn based RPG, in RPG Maker. ... And the computer I was making it on died before I could finish it & post it to the forums. :\

So people wouldn't even just be developing the actual gameplay, but probably writing their own questlines

Not to mention, the community c. 2012 was mostly people that were into the Unforgotten Realms cartoon, that were interested in the comedic D&D story setup that was supposed to be incorporated into the game

Like I know people do shit for games in general, but I was saying even for Rob's shit people do shit

People have done shit with DvZ way in the past(I don't know if any of it can be salvaged if even found, but I remember people modding DvZ back inthe day), people have made their own shit for URealms Live, so I don't see why not

Going off of the "My kickstarter has failed" video, if he had given up when Krysta left him and left him without someone doing like 40%+ of the work, I wouldn't be surprised if he had just released what assets he had for people to do what they want with it

Just a million and one ideas.

He raised $118k I think, was supposed to complete the game in two years, but he not only had absolutely no idea how to actually get it done, he also had absolutely no roadmap

But I have a feeling that of what was done on it - and this is just conjecture on my part - was just a massive amount of proofs of concept and tech demos, rather than an actually playable game.

there were a couple proofs of concept and tech demos of it in Unity

At first it was being done almost purely in Flash, as the sidescrolling jumping thing, then there was the beat-em-up version where you could move sideways and vertically, then there was talk of scrapping all the code from Flash to make it in Unity

The games art assets were dumped and redone at least twice, and the entire code was dumped and re-started three times I believe.

I mean blogs over the time of it being developed.

First off, the level editor was almost entirely for show, not functional.

From what he said on blogs, there's a few facets of it.

And not because I never got my money back, but because I was looking SO forward to playing it with my friends 10 year sago.

I'm getting legit a little sad right now

Goddamnit Spooky

Back in the day, I ripped the episodes and put them on DVDs(before Rob put out the first season with a few extras himself on DVD) to show friends easier, but it was just a very basic setup, I didn't save the titles

OH, DEVELOPERS, I'LL FIND THAT TO WATCH

btw, not asking you to change the titles, Spooky, but is there anywhere that has the original titles for Unforgotten Realms episodes? The Escapist ones

Well, shit.

uh....

Time to watch

WOOP WOOP

Rob -> Tom Green arc?

I attempt to disbelieve the majority of what he's saying. Phijkchu_Pikachu tl;dr, Rob just randomly walks around toronto talking to crazy people and picking up garbage, he's given up on getting a real job because no one hired him, is in a war with Eaton center security mall cops over tranny rights, and wants to become

What if he's trying to OD on heavy drugs and can't afford enough to OD? polu If Rob is begging for money he isn't planning on killing himself.

Like, thinking on it, I can easily see it, but I never thought of it myself or heard of that until now.

That's actually a really good mnemonic device for that, and I don't think I ever realized that all the Eeveelutions, plus Dragon, made up all the special types. polu The easiest way to remember what types are special before the split is all the eeveelutions plus dragon are special

idk if that's what a riptide is actually, I'm not really caught up with ocean terminology

Like, call it Riptide or something, turns Splash into a 40 power move that hits all Pokemon on the field
