Ren'Py The Null Hypothesis [v0.8c] [Ron Chon]
- Thread starter ronchonbon
- Start date
From what I was told, renpy stopped support for Windows 7. We've forked away from that with the real time physics thing.
We're barely getting the game to work on Android.
I'm not a code monkey but that sounds like we'd be making two separate builds of the game if we tried to support Windows 7. That'd just extend any and all updates and the Windows 7 version would likely lack features.
Me getting a psyche degree/being the mom friend or X-23, Jean, and Rogue all coincidentally having issues forming relationships?
1. You're forgetting that the game takes place in the mid 2000s so judging it by modern education is gonna inherently make things confusing.
2. A lot of stuff happens between time skips. That and Xavier runs a private school. He can have Null teach a lecture the same day he "graduates" if he wants. If anyone complains he just mind controls them lol
Us or Marvel? We haven't done anything with Lorna yet. Havok being a D-Bag of a boyfriend is all on Marvel currently.
You getting the pyche degree.
Those were the numbers in the early to mid 2000s. Of course a lot of that was due to having to work a full-time job to be able to afford your books.
I forgot about time skips.
I am more than fully aware that's all Marvel, not your writers. Much like Scott went from being a punchable dick to a piece of shit.

I've always had an interest in psychology since I was a kid. Just something I clicked with and after some meandering I decided to commit to it for higher education.
Reminder that I'm not a writer. I read the comics, outline the characters, make note of any behavioral attributes that can be used for the general storyline or quirks that can be used for the "quirks."
Jean's Big Sis thing is that, aside from Iceman, she's been surrounded by boys who looked down on her, including two older brothers. So through the senior mentorship thingy it just becomes warped with Null's encouragement. She is in fact taking advantage of Null because of her power dynamic. You can flip the tables by having her call you daddy and her pet name be Babygirl.
Rogue several times throughout her main canon continuity and other continuities notably the Fox Films, X-Men: The Animated Series, and Evo all have her wanting to be stripped of the burden that comes with being a mutant and she's given up autonomy and control to alleviate that burden before. Just this time around Null happens to be a stand up guy.
X-23 literally stalked people on the X-Mansion's security system and would fallow them around. She was the easiest one to adapt with a whole possessive yandere thing going on.
Once I establish these things I hand it to the writers and they do whatever they can/want with it. I'm not good at writing dialogue so I don't really bother trying. There's a lot in the game itself that I don't know about since I don't proof read anymore and I only just recently got the time to play the game myself.
Ah. The "But it was kinda rare at that point." went over my head. But yeah, Xavier's a dick and pulls some strings like you'd expect.
We'd get a lot of legitimate grind complaints if we didn't have them lol
Scott's not a bad character on paper. His entire thing is that he's by the book and puts his faith in what he perceives to be Xavier's dreams. He's no nonsense and it's human nature not to be inclined toward that personality. However writers have latched onto that and in several instances made him just "a piece of shit." There are many moments where he shines as a competent and compassionate leader.
Havok on the other hand has always been garbage from his very concept. He was introduced as Scott's immature punkass little brother and he hasn't evolved as a character since then excluding when he, and almost every other comic character, got really edgy.
There's a storyline that I HATED reading through where he switched places with an alternate universe version of himself and essentially ruined that Havok's life. Making everyone hate him, seducing a lot of female Marvel characters and basically being responsible for that reality's destruction.
Also the several times he turned evil only for the writers to bring it back. Dude has been mind controlled like 3 times and is one of the characters that was replaced by a Skrull when he did something irredeemable.
... TL;DR Havok is worse than Scott and we're likely not to be sympathetic to him like we are to some of the shit other characters.

It's actually a combination of the two Persona 2 games, Innocent Sin and Eternal Punishment, but fair enough.

I know that calling Null Wobbuffet didn't catch on, and that I'm probably forcing it at this point, but humor me for a second: Is Wobbuffet (the Pokemon) athletic, academic, or artistic?

I'd say artistic from its move set. Being able to throw back whatever your opponent sends at you has to take a certain amount of artistry.
Azazel in the Phoenix Saga?
Introduced-in-2003 Azazel?
The Azazel who was only very briefly relevant to anything because Nightcrawler's origin was originally "Mystique fucked a random human rich German guy, mutant powers aren't inheritance-based" and is currently "Mystique is his DAD as Chris Claremont intended but the editors wouldn't allow at the time, she fucked Destiny while shapeshifted into Azazel"?
I think we found another instance of me accidentally throwing someone in with a group earlier than they're supposed to be.
It's like Pixie and the New Mutants all over again.
Also Nightcrawler's parentage is something that will need to be heavily debated by the dev team eventually.
Do we go by Claremont's intentions? Do we stick to what was originally published? The retcon?
We ask a lot of these kinds of questions. Iceman being gay or not is a common one.

I mean, I could just go with that between Wobbuffet being a psychic type and the collective 'Null becoming a teacher or a therapist' headcanon that you guys came up with. But I don't think it's that simple.academic
Team Rocket's Wobbuffet doesn't strike me as being the sharpest tool in the shed, and therapists/psychologists aren't the big-brain genius know-it-alls that they think they are*. Null and Wobb are at their best when they're taking hits and getting knocked out, which in my mind implies physical contact, which to me says that they're more on the athletic side of a aisle. I also want to factor in/intentionally wrongfully interpret people failing to form the harem to Null's lack of emotional inelegance, but I don't have the right words for it at the moment.
The reason why I asked is that I plan on starting a new run by naming Null 'Wob Buffet' and give him blue arms and a blue pecker.
*And no, I'm not necessarily referring to you, Boots. I dated a psych major in college, and she was the most ditzy and naïve person that I've ever met. She also introduced me to Ikkitousen, if that indicates anything.
I guess. Though come to think of it, Null gaining new powers is similar to how Smeargle learns new moves via Sketch.
I'd go with the current version mainly because Azazel absolutely sucks. Any old-fuck like me who was reading comics in the early-mid 2000's knows the name of his creator, Chuck Austen, as one that lives in infamy for how immensely unpopular his writing was. One of the few people I've ever heard of being legit blacklisted from the big two based on merit alone.

Just for fun, here's an example: The plot of the story Azazel was introduced in goes as follows: "Azazel is a mutant who, a couple thousand years ago, was mistaken for the devil and banished to Hell. In the present, he got out and sired a bunch of kids with teleportation powers on purpose so that he could use their powers to escape Hell." But if he needs help getting out, how the fuck did he get out to impregnate the women?!
Also, in that story Iceman gets decapitated (because he can be made of ice when he wants to, this doesn't kill him) and because the team is in Hell, there's no moisture around for him to recreate his body from...so he has Havok pee on his face.

people complaining about grind really dont get how ez it really is to max things out. i was actively avoiding sleeping with people while trying to advance the story as much as possible and by the end nearly everyone was near max level. once u get the double day and night action, plus the stamina boost in the winter. its almost hard not have everyone maxed by the end of summer. which is all chapter 1, the only time i ever felt grind was when i tried to max all the girls by ch 1 fall. and even then once u know the mechanics its ez. and once u get the achievement bonus skills/boosts its over for the grind. i like the level its at now. and once u actually think about the mechanics and u explore how things work u can super efficiently do everything. a real grind would be the god among insects achievement as level 8 is the max i can do without putting in hundreds of days of grinding due to the exponential increase of exp required to level up. which hopefully gets resolved in later chapters.
i also still think that the danger room needs a buff for increasing the danger rating. otherwise its just flat worse then both studying and class in every way.

The Retcon at this point is retro-activly retarded since it makes all the other times Mistique's DNA has been a plot point completely void if she can just rearrenge it at will, not only that but the way they went at it was so handfisted it just made people angry.
I fail to see how this is something that needs to be discussed though, Mistique i can get why, but Bobby's?
Dude was constantly chasing after skirt since issue 1 of the X-men, even in the movies hes a flirty prettyboy with Rogue.

So?
We need percentages and quotas now?
In any case, if it was needed so badly, they should have just made a new character and see if it sticks, not literally gaybeam a long standing playboy.
I get your point. I really do, but who wants to be represented by a French Canadian? Albeit the least annoying one ever, but still......
