The Chatty Orb

While Black Hole have come up with a quite nice idea eplaining the possibility to leave messages within the game, I feel that players are more likely to drop messages that are less than entirely useful rather than story line related material ... <img src="/images/smiles/smile_teeth.gif">

I think it would be better to avoid much of this wisdom.

This is so Final Fantasy X, the Memory Spheres. They could leave items, traps, spells, or whatever concealed in that thing. Pick it, if you dare. :creative:

The conflux would only be useful for certain customers, only.

That way, they can troubleshoot and brainstorm ideas for the game in an organized fashion and improve the franchise - hopefully the game, as well....

@Panda Tar:



Saying that anything original came from a JRPG is an insult, hence implying that someone took an idea from FF is absurd. Of course what you describe is not original.

I actually didn't say it came from FF. It only reminds me that much. :? The idea came from their conclusions, whichever they were.

If original or not, it doesn't make any difference, does it? The feature is there whatever use you think it's best for you and whatever I say won't change it. So keep cool.

I'm cool. Something can be awesome without having the slightest hint of originality. I didn't make a point about quality or value.

I just thought it was redundanct their idea. :) I mean that it was more or less like the multiplayer chat, with few differences. But, there it is!
