the full second darkdread
interview skarab and gopus
[Skarab] Would you be up for a little
interview for my mag right now? [Gopus] Darkdread, we would be utterly
delighted if we can interview you for our 'zine in order to make it
popular again. [DarkDread] yeah, sure... fire
away. [Skarab] k [Skarab] 1) what is the last full RPG you
released? [DarkDread] That would be Mysterious Song...
waay back in April/May of 2000. [Skarab] 2) are you ever going to
release another full game? [DarkDread] Of course... The
next one will be Mysterious Song DX, and the Secret of Cooey
III. [DarkDread] Both should be out this
year. [Skarab] will they be as bad as
soc2? [DarkDread] heheh... hey, I liked SoC2.
:) [DarkDread] No... [Skarab]
heh [DarkDread] SoC3 is Final Fantasy style... and MSDX
is a huge upgrade to the original MS. [Skarab] does it hurt that no one
cares anymore? [DarkDread] Not many in the QB community
do... [DarkDread] but, we don't follow that scene
anymore. [DarkDread] We've got a big following outside of
it though. [Gopus] Hey that was mean... [Skarab] shaddup
gopus [Skarab] 5) what does it feel like to be a failure? [Gopus]
you'll have to excuse Skarab. [DarkDread] What do is feel
like to not be able to spell failiure properly?
:) [DarkDread] do=does [DarkDread] my
bad. [DarkDread] Skarab, be glad I'm not in a kicking
mood today. :) [Gopus] Entangled: I'm sorry... [Gopus] Um [Gopus]
I'll ask questions instead, if you don't mind. * Skarab goes to sit in
a corner [DarkDread] Heh, I don't mind. [Gopus] 6)
Even though you aren't with that scene, which qb site would you view, if
you were? [DarkDread] I do actually have a look at some
QB sites every now and then. [DarkDread]
Mostly... [DarkDread] I'll go to QB45.com just to see
what's going on... [DarkDread] and VPlanet as
well. [DarkDread] ...and yes... I still answer QB related
questions in my e-mail all the time. [Gopus] 7) Do you enjoy
NeoBASIC? [DarkDread] I haven't visited there in months.
So, I couldn't really say. [Gopus] 8) What would you like to say to the
average newbie RPG programmer? [DarkDread] It's not as
easy as it looks... [DarkDread] but... if you stick with
it... you can get a lot accomplished. [Gopus] 9) How do you feel that
nodtveidt redid your code for Mystic Song and said it was rather sad
looking? [DarkDread] Uh... Mysterious Song... geez...
it's not that hard to remember. [DarkDread] I've never
claimed to be obssessed with code though... [DarkDread] I
always code it to make sure it works, it doesn't use a lot of memory, and
it's quick... [DarkDread] why continue optimizing if it
does the job? [DarkDread] I leave that to
others. [DarkDread] ....and Nek isn't redoing any code
for MS... [DarkDread] Eclipzer is, for MSDX. [Gopus]
10) Do you think this obvious proves that you trully are a
failure? [DarkDread] Geez man.... you just love tryin' to
get a rise from someone don't you? [DarkDread]
Well... [DarkDread] I'm the last person to be bothered
with what others think. [DarkDread] As long as I like the
games I make... [DarkDread] that's good enough for
me. [Gopus] 11) Are you saying that our editor is doing a bad job with
our mag? [DarkDread] If I release something I enjoy
playing... that's success enough. [DarkDread] heheh... I
wouldn't know... I have yet to read it. :) [Gopus] 12) Why is
that? [DarkDread] 'cause you haven't given me the URL
yet, silly. [Gopus] 13) How much radiation do you suppose goes into
your sperm everytime you do a 24 hour RPG, disallowing any chance of your
children having 2 eyes? [DarkDread] I hate
children... [Skarab] Gopus you suck [DarkDread]
actually, no... [DarkDread] children are
good... [DarkDread] with a fine barbaque
sauce. [Gopus] 14) Do you have a mullet? [DarkDread]
ugh... mullets... rednecks... ick. [DarkDread]
Ok... [DarkDread] this is just getting lame
now. [Skarab] Let me take over Gopus [Gopus] so be it [Skarab]
15) Are you saying that if I have a mullet I am a redneck? *** You were
kicked by Entangled (if you're not gonna behave... don't come in
here.) [Skarab] gopus shall we? [Gopus] yes, do the
honors [Skarab] this is what we in the biz call a "bit" [Gopus] 16)
Do you feel this lack of patience is rooted from a childhood
experience? [Gopus] anyways Entangled? [Skarab] thanks DarkDread,
you've been great. sorry for the silly interview...we need hits
:) [DarkDread] gee... I feel so exploited :/ * Skarab
giggles [Skarab] you're a minor cult celebrity, what do you
expect? [DarkDread] better of you
:)
