Game Discussion / Re: How/When did you start playing FeralHeart?

« on: June 13, 2016, 06:34:23 pm »

My sister and I found the game in August 2011 after playing WQ! We'd heard about impressive title through youtube and were trying to find it when we stumbled across FH.

OMG that happened to me when I tried to redo the animations!

Game Discussion / Re: Where's Everything Going To Be?

I don't think anything is the new version of anything else.
I feel like The Grounds is more of a combination of everything. I'd rather consider these new maps as new maps rather than just updated versions of the old (aside from the actual updated versions of old), because with the update I feel like FH is moving on from its bland old maps and constant segregation between communities.
I've seen more ads in Cherika than anything else, but I wouldn't classify it as the new FP just because there are more movies. There are definitely ads in the Grounds too, so I don't want to classify it as "New Bonfire" just because it's smaller and more people are clumped together.

Anyway, that's just my input.

I did go through the maps, but honestly? It just feels like a step backwards; the edits resemble the days of old of Impressive Title more than simple "updates".

This was my first impression too, especially with the cape of worlds portal hidden in that spinning globe, just the way IT portals appear as.
There are a lot more maps now so I guess the community is going to be spread out more and seem a little deserted like an IT server, but I am in love with the underwater map and I really like the other new maps too.

Game Discussion / General back? :0

« on: June 09, 2016, 09:09:23 pm »

So while exploring with a friend, I found out with a bunch of other people that general is back!!
I am not sure if this was intentional but I'm really happy it is!! How does everyone else feel about it?
I just can't wait to finally be able to advertise my groups in a map-wide chat again, and I can't wait to meet new people :00 has anyone else noticed? o:
I'd kinda been falling out of touch with the game until the update.

Game Discussion / Re: Using emotes/actions while roleplaying? Thoughts?

« on: May 18, 2016, 02:54:04 pm »

I rarely even move my character or look down while roleplaying. I don't have anything against it, but I am really just there to imagine. I am used to skype roleplays and other more text based styles of rping rather than using my character in game to express things. It's just a personal preference, to be honest, and I don't think any less of anyone who uses the actions in game.
It's interesting to see that other people do, although I wouldn't know since I never look down lol. I'm always tabbing out.

Other Games / Re: Aro'Kai's Sudden Death

« on: May 16, 2016, 01:56:35 am »

My friend sent this to me about 10 minutes ago and it is well worth the read. It's honestly a shame and I feel for those who are disappointed by this.

Personally, I'd fallen out of touch with the Aro'kai community since 2012 so this was kind of a surprise to me --- I did know people who were at one point friends with 'Onowl'.
I'm pretty sure this is legit, seeing as there's really no reason to trash AK because it's already been pretty much gone..

and I'm totally bumping this so more people play HLD

Other Games / Hyper Light Drifter

« on: May 11, 2016, 08:58:47 pm »

I don't make topics often, but when I do, it's probably because I have something interesting to talk about.

Hyper light drifter is a game styled after older arcade type 8-bit games. It's really fun, and is available on Steam for $19.99 (USD). I would tell you it rivals Undertale, but that's a matter of opinion, and I've never actually played (or been interested in) Undertale.
The fan community is small, and by small it's like, the majority of the fandom is 26 (and growing) people in a skype chat talking, drawing, & writing --- while this is an exaggeration, I think you get the idea. It's not huge.
In HLD, you play as a character known as the Drifter. They appear to be genderless or gender neutral, but most take on the assumption that the Drifter uses male pronouns. My personal headcanon is that they're gender neutral, but everyone's different. Anyway, your goal essentially is to clear all 4 directions (and find secrets along the way) of North, East, South, and West. It can be considered quite difficult, but the accomplishment of finishing it is probably better than the stress of dying over and over again --- it's an automatic save, so you can't choose when to, and sometimes that's quite a killer.
I believe the final boss is named Judgement, and you will see Judgement frequently in cutscenes, usually after you kill a boss. Frequent also are "episodes" of Drifter collapsing and coughing up blood do occur.

Let me just say, the soundtrack is gorgeous and so is the art. When you come upon beautiful scenery, the music will swell and leave you feeling like you're living a fantasy.
The creators of this game did SUCH a great job with the pixels, and the fluidity of every motion makes my animator's heart sing.

Here are some fantastic screenshots of the game:
(all found on tumblr)

Now, I have yet to finish it, but I advise you do NOT go through tags on tumblr, etc., just in case you run into a spoiler, because I believe there is a pretty big one at the end of the game.
It plays best with a controller (Xbox/PS) but I've been doing pretty well on my own with my laptop keyboard since I don't have a wireless receiver for my Xbox controllers.
A recently added update is a local co-op feature! Meaning you can play with your friends, woo! Unfortunately there's no online co-op (yet, hopefully).
Thank you for checking out this post! I do hope you're now interested. Drifter (the main/playable character) is extremely fun to draw so there's lots more fanart to look through, if you're into that. And before I go: Like any other group or fanbase, HLD's fandom does produce NSFW content. I do not take responsibility for you coming across this kind of content, because I myself prefer to avoid it and block tags/links/etc. that contain it. Please be careful out there, kids :- )
