Have made quite an extensive item list that I could share with you guys at a later date. If you have AIM, MSN or Yahoo, PM me your address, I'll add you and send it to you
Well, I can sprite some swords, but someone else will have to animate them.
I recolor sprites.

Hmmm, i didn't think there were too many games that the hero had an oversized sword. Other than FFVII. And the fact that it was the "Evil Guardians" sword it would have to be big IMO. This guy is nothing like cloud, other than the fact his sword is big. Other than the big sword idea, there is no similiarity.
But if the majority dislike the idea I can change it, its just I already made a few sprite sets that have him with this sword.
well, FF7, 8, and several Animé's have oversized or physics defying weapons. I'm not saying I completely dislike the idea completely, and if you're attached to it then I won't bring it up again. But a funky weapon on a main character wouldn't interest me all that much. On the other hand, a side character, or just another character weilding a funky weapon would be cool. I like Barret's Gunarm more than Clouds Sword, as an example.
However, that can be changed without too much trouble even somewhat further in the production. So without too much debate, I think we should focus on other things, like... he's nude, and washed up on shore. What happens? Is that immediately when the player gains control? Or is there a cutscene of him finding clothes or something? Or does he just walk into town in the nude? Oh yeah, if he does have a physics defying weapon, would other people notice? I think they should. It kinda bothered me that no one noticed just how big the Buster Sword was.
The project that was awesome, has fallen apart... oh well.
The sword's only oversized in sprite porporition, it probably isn't all that big really. A regular FFVI sword diagonal is as tall as the character.

whos' obama?
Ok, I won't say another word about it. Lets move on.

......Ravur....dont liten to them....
the sword is fine how it is....
YOUR the one making the game
YOUR the one in charge
now,i think nothing is wrong with making him have a huge sword,and look at his Sprite...its not like its easy to weild....he has to not drag it..but its hard to carry,so he kinda carries it behind him.ok,for the villian,i was thinking his name should be Xepher...now his story is...is that he was one of the legendary heroes,and he was in the party destroying the evil Guardian(Axil could be the Ev.Guards.name)and he got hit with the sword and got infected with the curse. The Light Guardian(Zeypher,maybe) gave him the blessing,but rigged it or something...so Xepher got cursed with crazyness and evilness...

Too big.
I think the main character should get clothes from a passerby. Like, he picks up the sword, memory gone, and threatens them. The passerby throughs some clothes at him, and the screen fades to black and then back and he has his clothes on. Then the game begins, and you find the town after some battles.
I recolor sprites.

I'll put that thought about not having the big sword to the side for now, I might change it just for the fact I came up with an idea for the story.
EDIT: Thats a possible idea too Izzo.
Instead of the hero having the Evil guardians sword, why not let the villian have the weapon that belonged to the evil guardian. So this vortex released these objects in it throughout time. Maybe the Evil guardians sword showed up in time earlier than our hero did. And a certain kingdom locked it up for safety or for display. Until our villian, probably crazy and seeking power from the cause of painful past (just for an example) decided to steal it. The sword is evil and powerful and so is the villian. I think that would fit also.
As for the hero, I thought maybe he could appear in the woods by a lake, and a fisherman/hunter finds him and takes him back to his little shack. The villager lets him stay there for a little bit to see if he regains any memory, but doesn't. So he suggests he go to the nearest town. So the Fisherman/Hunter gives him the necessary tools, armor, and weapon for getting there. Maybe thats how he gets his weapon? Maybe the Fisherman/Hunter comes with him, or maybe he can be a character. Those are just my thoughts. Anyone else have a good idea?
I hate to be the party pooper here, but wouldn't it be easier for you guys to give each other E-Mails, IM, maybe even Phone# and do the project that way?
Or are you guys still searching for more people to join?
That is being worked on, we might have our own board for this soon. Right now yes, we are looking for people, and still need this thread, right now though its the only thing we have to discuss it with everyone.
Oh I see, I just wanted to give a suggestion that's all. I think it's great that you guys are all coming together to create something. Hope it turns out as good as it sounds. Good Luck.
umm.....Ravur? are you gonna consider my idea?
Too big.
Yes, sorry for not replying to that TidusMaster, sometimes my computer is slow and the only thing i saw was the post above mine. I like where you are going with it, but the part about the Light Guardian rigging the power she gave to one of the heroes is probably not going to be used. Since she's supposed to be the "Good Guardian."
I will say no idea is a bad one, becuase even if we dont use all of your idea, we may use parts of it, and parts of another. Thats why there's more then one story writer.
the plotline so far is neat n_n
sorta like one of the old BoF I once played.
except, not really like BoF, more like Tales of Litany. :3
