How's My Driving?
[PROCEED]


IT'S HERE, IT'S HERE! HMD, HMD! HOW'S MY DRIVING? PRETTY GOOD, RIGHT? AREN'T YOU THANKFUL?! GOBBLE IT UP, POLYCHROMATIDS~!!

Welcome back to our more seasoned members, and welcome to you first-timers.

HMD is the gamewide chance for feedback on playing here in [livejournal.com profile] polychromatic.

And here's our philosophy on HMD: praise--it's all well and good (we all love it, yeah?), so if you want to give praise, love, ♥s, whatever, go for it! It's especially great to say what you ♥ so much about a character. For example, how they acted during X curse or Y plot was great, or how they adjusted (or didn't?) to the City was fascinating. But we all know, constructive crit is best when you're looking for advice on how to improve. What we really encourage here are questions. It gives you the chance to maybe understand something, (and maybe you think it makes sense after all now), and the player a chance to explain. For example:

"How did Gary get from Point A in canon to Point B in Poly? It didn't quite make sense to me."

"What started this whole fascination of Sue's with the bananas?"

And then you find out that there's a long, involved story that goes back six months involving the aftermath of a curse, a lizard, a pound of potatoes, a watermelon, three French maids, and a pogo stick. And then it all makes perfect sense.

Or perhaps it doesn't, but you've started a dialogue about the things you perceive versus the things the player perceives.

As decided by community vote, anon is not allowed here on the main HMD post, and IP logging is on. Sorry, Anon. However, we encourage posting a link to your own, personal, anon-enabled crit thread(s) if allowing anon is something you want to do and are comfortable with. But keep in mind that we moderators can't police those crit threads: not only are they anon, but they are on your own journals, and there are dozens of them. But we entreat members of this game to be polite and courteous, logged in or not. We will be watching the main post for any unrest, however, so keep that in mind. (We like to watch.) Let's all keep ourselves like civilized people, and have a decent time. Remember, no road rage in HMD.

To keep things organized, please post your comment in the following format*:




The general disclaimer, as usual, applies:

By choosing to post here on HMD, you may receive comments you don't necessarily enjoy. By posting here, you accept that this could happen, and you're basically okay with it. We will be monitoring this post for abuse and will shut down any instances of abuse we see. However, constructive crit, comments, or questions you just don't like do not count as abuse.

Whew. Now that that's all out of the way, have at it, [livejournal.com profile] polychromatic!

*Please remember our requests regarding sparkles, images, embedded media, and other bits of coding. A little variation on the comment form is fine and tasty, and putting things like gifs or videos behind links or in collapsed threads is fine too, but please consider the loading time for others with slower connections. And take it easy on the placeholders: HMD isn't going anywhere.

And because it's apparently traditional for HMD posts to go up in the middle of the damn night, here we are. =_=v

Anonymous allowed/encouraged? Y/N: Should be allowed, encouraged, eh. Would rather be logged in so that we can discuss it in more detail. I swear I don’t bite, and I super-swear that you won’t offend me.
Other comments? I like crit, and I can’t improve unless you give me some, if you feel something’s off even if you don’t know canon, that’s fine, yadda yadda yadda. Other’n that I got nothing other than the cornbread recipe I use works a lot better when put to use as muffins. Hope those that celebrated had a happy turkey day~!

I really need to play Kingdom Hearts so that I can be familiar with your characters a bit more. *crais*

And Hiyori <3

[identity profile] sitaronthewater.livejournal.com 2009-11-28 10:34 pm (UTC)(link)
KH IS A GREAT SERIES. But. Uh. As far as being more familiar with my characters, not so much. Maybe more in Days, IDK, still haven't finished it. But if you'd like to see Demyx specifically, then there's a link in his concrit. To all of his canon. Way under three minutes. Go Nomura.

Lucky*Star is horrifically cute. And coincidentally the reason I watched TMoHS. Speaking of cute, omg, that icon. Tohruuuu.

I want that cornbread recipe.

BY WHICH I MEAN YOU KNOW EXACTLY HOW I FEEL ABOUT YOUR CHARACTERS. Sob, I want D-Horribz and Hammer to come back and get up to shenanigans again soooooooooooooon. ♥

Also, how's Hiyori taking the disappearance of Sora thing?

It's here (http://judaism.about.com/od/thanksgivingrecipes/r/bread_corn.htm), but use waaay less soy milk, omg. Use, like, half of that. And they're deceiving, cause they don't brown on top, but they're the first time I've used this recipe that I liked the result. Muffins. Yum.

OMG, THERE WILL BE SO MUCH D-HORRIBZ ANTICS GOIN' ON. I EAGERLY AWAIT SOME TRIO SINGING.

Well, pretty much look at her thread with Kona in her latest entry. That pretty much sums it up.

Not to echo everyone else but NEEDS MOAR HAMMER plzkthx. You're so wonderful at playing the magnificent jerk that is Hammer. I'm really hoping that, once we have Dr. H back, there can be something epic happening. *still holding out for a three-part song*

I love Demyx, by the way. ;-; He makes me feel bad for dropping Carl.

Be a leader not a follower! No, just kidding. kjhsdfkjdshf I'm so not that good, I'd never be half as good without you and Tam, I swear. OH, WE WILL SO DO THAT IT'S NOT EVEN FUNNY.

/stares at Must not encourage you. Must not encourage you- BUT SOB, HIM AND CARL. /pout-y face

Okayyy, let me see what I can manage. I still don't know Hammer or Hiyori, but for Demyx - I think the only recommendation I can make is for you to play the new canon. Or check up on game scripts! I can help you with transcribing if you can't find sources elsewhere. \o\ Apparently in canon he's a lot... lazier than you've made him, more obliviously selfish (in that sort of "o waow, I GUESS I SHOULD BE GLAD I DIDN'T GO TO CASTLE OBLIVION, too bad that guy you hung out with a lot died there, Roxas. :'D"), a lot less positively invested in the Organization.

I'd... still like to see a bit more flail and exaggerated reactions from him in the meantime, I guess, is a non-new-canon related crit? A little more of the "oh man" element, somewhat more clueless, instead of this practicality, since... I've never seen Demyx as the practical type. For example, taking his pumpkin patch post! He sort of went straightforwardly to the main question instead of adopting a more "hey! hey, what's going on?" Which I wouldn't have expected. I hope that makes sense at all. |D

It's irrelevant what you say. Your icon is cute. /hit OKAY, YES. Definitely will be playing the game soon, but thanks for the offer. (SOB, DON'T REMIND ME, OMG THAT SCENE SOOOOOOB FOREVER.) Yeah, I'll have to find a way to excuse that, but I'm sorta getting an idea of how to do that.

Okay, definitely see what you mean by that. Too calm, needs more confused . . . -ness. But I get what sort of essence you're getting at, and I'll work at incorporating that some more. Also, I commend you for being able to have significant crit for me every time, not that that's hard 'cause it's me, but. Thank you eternallyyyyyy.
