I think development would go much quicker and smoother if we cqn deside on a basic plot.

so far as a theme, we have futuristic fantasy dream. So were do we go fom there right? If we have a general story, characters, systems and fetures would be easier to implement and we wouldnt have a buch of random addons and Ideass that would end up not being used.

So like how about we try to get around 5+ stories up and then have a guild vote to see which one wins. (however, just because a sotry loses doesnt me it cant be used for a future project.)

The Year is 2012.

A young girl named Feranis is transferred 2000 years in to the future were she finds her self in a mech bunker. there are a lot of loud noises going around the area and the place she is in is shaking uncontrollably. within the darkness of the bunker she sees a robot named the "E.X Valkyrie" and something insider her tells her to get in. Strangely enough, she doesn’t question it and gets in. it activates on its on and they are launched into space.

they are now in space and a epic battle is going on but with out much work, Feranis makes quick work of the attackers.
after the battle, fellow pilots and scientist rush her to a lab and starts interrogating her. She is totally silent. The biggest mystery was why was a little girl able to operate a robot that not even a ace pilot could manage. After a while, they figure they might as well let her stay on board for a while.
The reason faranis is quiet is because she witnessed something horrible. For every person she killed in battle, she saw there life flash away with them. the ones they loved and how she took that away. in that battle, she uncontrollably killed dozens of enemies.

a day passes and the ship is under attack again (the story takes place on a battle ship btw for now)

she stays in her room the whole time just spaced out when the commander of the ship calls for her to got to the bridge. she just lays there and eventually, soldier come to escort her to the commander.

He asks her to go into battle but she refuses. He then puts on the battle monitor and shows her that if she doesn’t go out there, the battle would drag out and even more lives would be lost. Hesitantly she agrees.

er... and that’s it for now. Sorry if it sucks to badly. I've personally wanted to do a story like this for a while. but if the guild wants to use it go on ahead.

er and about the futuristic war, In 2013 there was a apocalyptic natural disaster that killed out 2/3 of all life on earth. Even after that, the earth was left a barren wasteland. With what materials were left, scientist built several space colonies for the rest of life can live else were but one thousand years later, four of the seven colonies suddenly stopped functioning. The reminding colonies blame each other for what happened and for the last thousand years, they have been bickering. Now a major war is about to start but many feel this all happened through a act of god. that he wants humans extinct for all there sins and that all that has happened is because of that.


Unknown to them, one girl from humanities past will lead to the salvation of all of them....

First of all, you shouldn't have started this thread without my permission. I have reasons for doing things the way I've been doing them, but I'm not angry. I could tell you were itching to get the storyline started, and we'll need it eventually, so we can use this. Maybe I was holding this off until school was fully finished so I could spend longer on it. Either way, this is a good idea, so let's get started!

Your storyline is interesting in parts, but seems lacking in others. The timeline is good (I'm assuming you're playing off the December 21, 2012 doomsday prophecy) and the conflict between the nations is good, but the way she is introduced into the world needs some work. It seems too coincidental that the mech found her in the middle of a bunker. It would be much more exciting to have her appear in the middle of the battle and force her to jump into the abandoned mech instead of her just being curious. I like where it's going other than that, although it reminds me a LOT of Xenosaga (which I've just started playing). But, with enough effort, we can make it unique. Overall, good job!

Thanks ^_^

Sorry I jumped the gun, however, I always thought it was basic plot, characters, everything else and then the completion of the plot.

Its hard to make characters if we don’t know what the point of the story is.

Sorry if I seem selfish. xp

your Ideas are good. They work.

I also see when the similarity lies with xenosaga and this game, however the similarities end there. (I played the first one and beat the third. the end made me sad crying )

the concept of the character is realism and emotion. not saying she’s a emo b***h but like more realistic than the average shonen mech protagonist.

she agrees to fight later on not to bring peace to the worlds. she feels alone being a stranger in a new world and she feels empty. the only thing that makes her feel alive is seeing the flash of others lives as she kills them. she becomes a sort of distorted battle junkie. towards the end of the game, the war finally ends and while this is good and all, she no longer gets her fix so during a peace keeping conference where all the colonies are aligned she gets in her mech and unleashes her whole arsenal of weapons on them destroying all of them. the story ends with her sitting in the cockpit dazed as all the lives of her victims flash before her.


is that too dark?

I almost choked on my drink there.

Anyway, I like the darkness aspect. Stories with happy endings bother me, but we'll see what everyone else thinks.

I know.

Endings should tragic/sad, Or at least bittersweet.

Linis, you have a pretty good Idea for a story.

I'll have to work on one later.

Perhaps I'll start writing one this weekend.

I have more free time now. YAY!

Mechs are in games because sci-fi is becoming more prevalent. Mechs are a feasible idea based on our technology and it's likely that they will be implemented in reality, so you see them a lot. As long as we make them unique, there shouldn't be too much of a problem.

dont make all the characters have mechs and if we do use mechs make mech suits like armor kinda like samus only way different in weapons because i mean come on all characters being mechs is like i said before kinda...... overused make mecharmor kinda mech but not mech at the same time has the ability of mechs but is a human inside

I agree that we shouldn't go overboard with the mechs, but if we have just a few it should be OK.
PostPosted: Thu Jun 26, 2008 8:36 pm

It doesnt feel as epic if its just a bunch of adverage sized people fighting in space.

and there wouldnt be any need for that many units. the enimies may have 5 different types (meaning 5 sprites)

if the game is short then there should be any problem with that I guess.

remember if there are armies, they will have standard modles so there would be a bunch o fthe same sprite on screen and since there big mechs that may be overlooked. I think it makes things VERY easy.

i know were your getting at and its a good idea but mechs or lots of mechs and only mechs have been used to much why not if using mechs and please no space game thats been overused also but if using mechs make it mechsuits like on metroid but only different models of mech suites instead of just mechs

...please no space game thats been overused...

I was under the assumption that space was to be included as it goes along with the futuristic theme, but I'll make a poll to see what everyone else thinks in another thread.

After that I'll make a poll deciding on mechs and how many we want included.

And dark_angel_damian2, you really need to start using proper grammar, or at least punctuation. There's no excuse for having huge blobs of text that I have to go through and decipher. Something as simple as a period can make a huge difference, so please take the time to type so I can understand it.
