User:Element Knight 375/Gaming Forum

Hello, visitors and members! My nickname is Element Knight 375, an avid fan of Game Ideas Wiki. I'm the writer of several pages, such as The Element Chronicles, and I have been in communication with executive members, such as Ouroburos,TheNewSaurian and Geniusguy445, regarding my work and whether I could join.

Geniusguy graciously extended a personal invitation to create an account and join the community, but I convinced him to let me stay anonymous from an official standpoint for security reasons. However, I provided a nickname, Element Knight 375, for them to address me by, and shortly afterward they gave me permission to establish this, a Discussion Page, for people to give their opinions on once-a-day questions through the extremely quick, extremely easy, and extremely informal process of editing. And even now, after creating an account, I continue to expand it, and you great contributors out there keep responding!

So here's how this works: for every day I visit the site, I will come on to this page, type that day's date, and post a question for that day, regarding everything from what game you would want made the most, from a good bout of "Who would win in a fight?". If you are intrigued by a question, just click "Edit Page" at the top next to the title, scroll down to the question you want to answer, start a paragraph, and then make up a nickname for yourself. This name can be on-the-spot or established, but you don't have to make an account. From there, you just write up your answer, hit publish, and then it's open to the public. If your answer is really good, I, Element Knight, or some of the executive contributors might respond to it. If you have a question you'd like me to ask, go to the bottom and post a comment for it (also account-free). Are you ready? Here goes!

01/04/12: What's your favorite Nintendo Land game?
 * Pikmin Adventure. I enjoy getting to level 15 and killing everything in one shot  while my little sister keeps dying at level 4. Hey Chugga, don't eat the mushroom. 05:05, January 21, 2013 (UTC)
 * I personally like Mario Chase or Zelda Battle Quest the most. They felt the most exciting to me, and I enjoyed playing them the most. Still, they may not be as fun with other people. I don't have much experience with Nintendo Land. "I beat you all the time by myself, and now there's two of me!" Element Knight 375 (talk) 06:24, January 21, 2013 (UTC)
 * I actually do like Battle Quest but as soon as I read the question my mindd said to me: Pikmin Adventure. But I do enjoy Battle Quest with the sword. Hey Chugga, don't eat the mushroom. 10:44, January 21, 2013 (UTC)

01/05/12: Do you think there should be a game similar to Mario Party, but encompassing all the major Nintendo franchises?

01/11/13: What's your favorite mask in The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask?

01/12/12: What game makes you feel the most happy when you play it? 01/16/13: What's your favorite car racer?
 * There will never be a game that makes me more joyful than Destroy All Humans!. That game is probably one of the greatest titles on the PlayStation 2 but is also the most underrated. If I were to ask a consensus of ten people, I bet four of them would say that they never heard of Destroy All Humans!; but, I digress. The reason why this game makes me happy the most is the fact that you can  CAUSE ABSOLUTE CHAOS . I seriously mean "chaos". You can zap, abduct, disintegrate, liquify, vaporize, melt, crush and just mess the absolute s**t out of people as well as buildings, cars and other things. I guess that makes me a sadist, but come on, the whole point of video games is to escape into another world and do what you want. I think it's justified when there's ragdolls flying around while cars are getting blown to smithereens and while all this is going on, you're maniacally laughing your ass off. XtranormalGeek 07:34, January 12, 2013 (UTC)
 * Alright, that's actually a pretty good choice, I must say.  But I have a few pretty good choices; I'd say my favorite is probably The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess, because that makes me feel like I'm on a real adventure, and nothing's better than that.  But in terms of sheer joy, I'd say I most enjoy playing Sonic Generations.  When I get on a hot streak in that game, it's really a state of joy that you can't replicate anywhere else.  It's that kind of feeling of power and freedom that only Sonic can give you.  The levels are well-designed, the music is fantastic, and it's just pure fun boosting through enemies and platforming like a pro.

01/18/13: Gaming news states that a LEGO Marvel Superheroes game is in production. What do you think of this development?
 * I'm not really excited. The only LEGO-based video games I've played are Star Wars, Batman and Harry Potter. Other than that, I sorta moved on. At first, the idea was incredible, and I was absolutely in love with LEGO Star Wars, but after the second one, meh... I transitioned into a more serious stage of my gaming life where I cared more about story and stuff like that. Besides, Guitar Hero was really on the rise and that took up my time. Anyways, ever since then, I've heard snippets of information regarding the LEGO video games ranging from DC Superheroes and Lord of the Rings, which both seem cool for their own reasons, but they just don't look that amazing. I may sound snobbish here, but that's just my opinion. If the situation ever arose in which I went over to a friend's house and they had LEGO Batman 2 or any of the more recent games, sure, I'd play them, but when it comes to actually getting them, nah. So, all in all, I'm not that intrigued (nor surprised!) about them moving on to a Marvel setting. P.S., the fact that they started adding voices to the games put me off more than I was. It was more interesting when there was no dialogue and it was just bare-bones gameplay with an okay story. XtranormalGeek 08:38, January 19, 2013 (UTC)
 * Well, I agree about the voice acting; it made it feel a lot weirder and less charmingly humorous. But I've been a pretty big fan of the LEGO series for a long time. My favorites are the Indiana Jones, Star Wars, and Harry Potter ones. But, I haven't been that much into the series these days because I've been focusing on other games. Despite this, I'm actually quite excited for the Marvel LEGO game. I think it's about time they made one, and I'm interested to see how it's done.

01/20/13: What's your favorite weapon in Skyrim?

01/21/13: What's your favorite remix of a song in a video game?
 * I'm not exactly sure, but so far I got Mute City from Super Smash Bros. Brawl (yes, I have that game now. REJOICE! :D) "What the crap?!?" Ethanthegamer (talk) 21:51, January 27, 2013 (UTC)
 * I love the Rooftop Run remix from Sonic Generations, but I love almost every single remix from Super Smash Bros. Brawl. "I beat you all the time by myself, and now there's two of me!" Element Knight 375 (talk) 07:57, January 29, 2013 (UTC)

01/23/13: Which do you like better, Donkey Kong Country or Super Mario World?

01/24/13: What's your opinion on Sonic Riders?
 * One of the best unique racing games ever made. :) Ethanthegamer (talk) 21:51, January 27, 2013 (UTC)
 * It's OK.  It's a brilliant concept (except Zero Gravity, which is epic), but they haven't hit the perfect note yet; they need an installment with good graphics, good voice acting, good controls, a sense of speed, good story, and creative levels.  Some of these are OK in terms of those, but they need to get all of them right in one title. "I beat you all the time by myself, and now there's two of me!" Element Knight 375 (talk) 07:57, January 29, 2013 (UTC)

01/25/13: What one thing added to a sequel to a game do you think improved the entire series?
 * I believe every sequel deserves a chance...like Final Fantasy XIII-2! ^o^ "What the crap?!?" Ethanthegamer (talk) 01:55, January 31, 2013 (UTC)
 * Well, is there anything in Final Fantasy XIII-2 that you think improved Final Fantasy as a series?  Anyway, I think that the best additions to series include boosting in Sonic the Hedgehog, Thu'um in The Elder Scrolls, and multiplayer in Mario games.  "No copyright law in the universe is going to stop me!"

01/27/13: Do you think Rareware should develop for Nintendo again?
 * Have you even seen Conker's Bad Fur Day? Yes x100! XD "What the crap?!?" Ethanthegamer (talk) 01:53, January 31, 2013 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I think Rare should produce for Nintendo again.  Even if its games don't live up to the N64 days, at the very least, I have no doubt they would be better than the bull-shaz that Microsoft is making them do these days. "No copyright law in the universe is going to stop me!" Element Knight 375 (talk) 05:27, January 31, 2013 (UTC)

01/28/13: What have you been playing lately?
 * Well, since I recently bought SSBB, I think I'll play that some more. But I'm hoping when I get a Wii U and a cash card for that, I'll be blowing up on Sin & Punishment!! >:D "What the crap?!?" Ethanthegamer (talk) 01:53, January 31, 2013 (UTC)
 * You should definitely keep playing that.  Enjoy it as much as you can, it's amazing.  I've been playing a lot of Sonic Generations, Banjo-Kazooie, and especially Skyrim lately, and I'd really like to get some more Xbox 360 games soon. "No copyright law in the universe is going to stop me!" Element Knight 375 (talk) 05:27, January 31, 2013 (UTC)

01/29/13: What do you think of cel-shaded graphics in video games? Do you think more games should have them? 01/30/13: What do you think of Valve games?
 * Yes x100. 'Nuff said. I mean seriously, everyone's just focused on "Graphics!! Graphics!! Graphics!!" >:( (to be frank actually, they are amazing. I downloaded a demo of Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed and those graphics are *singsong* killing iiiiiiiiit! ^_^), I mean seriously, what happen to real gaming? THIS IS WHY WE AND EUROPE ARE LOSING!!! DX< (even though as far as I'm concered, Europe mostly has indie games) "What the crap?!?" Ethanthegamer (talk) 01:53, January 31, 2013 (UTC)
 * I love cel-shaded graphics.  I think they're some of the coolest graphics in gaming, and they've always been amazing when I've seen them.  I would like to see more games with cel-shaded graphics in newer games; they remind me of modern art. "No copyright law in the universe is going to stop me!" Element Knight 375 (talk) 05:27, January 31, 2013 (UTC)
 * What the f**k are those?? :/ "What the crap?!?" Ethanthegamer (talk) 00:20, February 1, 2013 (UTC)
 * They're games made by Valve, the development company, like Left 4 Dead, Portal, Team Fortress, Doom, and Half-Life.  Calm down.  Anyway, I have little to no experience with Valve games, but they seem to be top-notch from what I've seen.  I think they may want to listen to their fans about releasing more Half-Life games, though.  "No copyright law in the universe is going to stop me!"

02/02/13: Who's your favorite Street Fighter character?

02/03/13: Which do you prefer as a series, Final Fantasy or The Elder Scrolls? 02/09/13: Do you prefer puzzle games or adventure games?
 * Since I've had more experience and comfort of playing Final Fantasy games, I'll go with the thing in question, although while I was staying with my dad who was staying with his brother (named Mandai, now deceased. May God rest his soul in peace) I picked up a few perks from watching my cousin, also named Mandai, play The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion then me playing it... I hope my cousin is okay. <=( "I am the one who will surpass God!!!!" Ethanthegamer (talk) 21:56, February 8, 2013 (UTC)
 * I have enormous respect for the Final Fantasy, but I have very little experience with them, while I've always really enjoyed playing Elder Scrolls games, from Morrowind to Oblivion and to Skyrim especially.  So, as a series, I enjoy Elder Scrolls more, but I think Final Fantasy is really cool.  "No copyright law in the universe is going to stop me!" Element Knight 375 (talk) 04:02, February 21, 2013 (UTC)

02/13/13: What singleplayer game do you think could have incorporated a great multiplayer experience as well?

02/14/13: Who would win in a fight, Connor from Assassin's Creed III or Captain Falcon from F-Zero? 02/20/13: Are you looking forward to the release of the PlayStation 4?
 * I don't know who Connor is, so I say Captain Falcon. :) "FALCON PUUUUUUUUUUNCH!!" Ethanthegamer (talk) 16:10, February 15, 2013 (UTC)
 * Here, you can find out with this link I'm about to show you...ah-CHOO.  ANYway, I think I go with Captain Falcon as well, since he has the Falcon Punch, and is able to compete with a cast of characters who can probably beat Connor.  "No copyright law in the universe is going to stop me!" Element Knight 375 (talk) 04:02, February 21, 2013 (UTC)
 * Yes... unlike some people. >_> [[Image:xtranormalgeek gif.gif|50px]] You've just been geek'd. 15:47, February 23, 2013 (UTC)
 * I actually am kind of looking forward to its release; the main reason I'm not excited yet is because I don't have many details on it.  I didn't see the actual announcement, so until they're made public, I probably won't be overly aware of what it has to offer.  The controller looks cool though, from the picture I saw.

02/21/13: What's your favorite third installment in any game series?

02/22/13: What's your favorite first level in a video game? 02/23/13: Which do you prefer, Mortal Kombat or Street Fighter? 02/25/13: Who would win in a fight, Sonic the Hedgehog or Marth from Fire Emblem?
 * I'll have to go with World 1-1 from the original Super Mario Bros. ComicReadingGamer(talk) 08:55, February 23, 2013 (UTC)
 * That's actually the level that inspired this question.  I love that level too.  Although, I think my favorite first level would have to be Tropical Resort - Act 1 from Sonic Colors.  It's the first level of Sonic I ever played and completed, and I love going back and replaying it for the atmosphere. "No copyright law in the universe is going to stop me!" Element Knight 375 (talk) 21:15, February 23, 2013 (UTC)
 * Street Fighter is a fighting-genre francise where fighters beat each other senseless while hip-hop and alternate play in the background, which would be perfect for Pokemon. Mortal Kombat is a darker kind of fighting game where you can explictly execute the opponent, which would be perfect for Happy Tree Friends (LOL!! ^_^). So, I'll go with Street Fighter, since that is the series I'm most familiar with. "ANIME EEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT!!!! >X3" Ethanthegamer (talk) 21:58, February 23, 2013 (UTC)
 * No contest here; Mortal Kombat of course! FATALITY!!!! ComicReadingGamer (talk) 18:23, February 23, 2013 (UTC)
 * It's really kind of a tie for me.  I grew up with the old, old Mortal Kombat games, and I grew to be really fond of the epic story and colorful characters.  But Street Fighter seems like a really solid fighting game, and more importantly, it's less graphic.  I could probably say that I would like Mortal Kombat to be more like Street Fighter, and then I would prefer it.  Still, I'm terrible at fighting games, so I have no particular preference in terms of gameplay.

 * Hmm... That's a toughy. :/ "Dipper: I decapitated Larry King." Ethanthegamer (talk) 16:39, February 28, 2013 (UTC)
 * I go with Sonic all day.  His speed can probably win him just about any fight, and it's impossible to keep up with him, so he controls just about every battle.  "No copyright law in the universe is going to stop me!" Element Knight 375 (talk) 04:48, March 1, 2013 (UTC)

02/26/13: Do you enjoy watching videos about gaming?
 * "Fo sho!" ^_^ "Dipper: I decapitated Larry King." Ethanthegamer (talk) 16:39, February 28, 2013 (UTC)
 * I absolutely love videos about gaming.  They're the main reason I go on the Internet, aside from wikis.  Some of my favorites include PeanutButterGamer, JonTron, and the Yogscast, plus various gaming OST.  "No copyright law in the universe is going to stop me!"

02/27/13: What's your favorite wiki other than Game Ideas Wiki? 02/28/13: What video game character do you most identify with?
 * I'm not really sure, but here's a wiki I've been going to recently: Poof! "Dipper: I decapitated Larry King." Ethanthegamer (talk) 16:39, February 28, 2013 (UTC)
 * I think my second favorite wiki is The Game Reviews Wiki.  It doesn't receive that much attention, but it's the first wiki I ever founded, and it serves as a great way for me to give my opinions on games. "No copyright law in the universe is going to stop me!" Element Knight 375 (talk) 05:21, March 6, 2013 (UTC)
 * This is a tough one. I'm not sure, to be real honest. If I was forced to pick, I'd say Jak from the Jak and Daxter series. Mainly because he has a tough skin, had a dry sense of humor and never knew his father. Yes... I never knew my real father. ._. I am my own person. 05:04, March 1, 2013 (UTC)
 * Ouch...sorry about that, man.  Well...I guess my answer might be Link from Skyward Sword, Sonic the Hedgehog, or Shulk from Xenoblade Chronicles.  It's more of a combination of the three, really, because some things about me are: I live a rather unusual and simple life, but I have a number of goals, and I'm not always sure what will happen to me next.  But regardless, I always stand against injustice, and I try to maintain a positive, friendly, and problem-solving attitude no matter what challenges face me.  "No copyright law in the universe is going to stop me!"

03/02/13: Would you be interested in seeing an official Sonic Adventure 3 released?
 * Yes, I'd love to see a sequel to the original Sonic Adventure series! ^_^ ...And that MAY be possible, considering the impossible is becoming the possible these days. And we all know about the announcement of PlayStation 4 by now. :D "Must! Milk! To! Digimon Adventure for PSP!!" Ethanthegamer (talk) 13:42, March 14, 2013 (UTC)
 * If Sega were to actually released Sonic Adventure 3, with songs by Crush 40 and Adventure-style gameplay, it would make my year, whatever year it was.  It's easily the most requested Sonic title, and I easily see why.  It would be the most amazing game in the series if they did it right.

03/03/13: Who's your favorite Tekken character?

03/04/13: Who's your favorite sidekick in a video game?

03/05/13: What's your favorite gravity-based game?

03/06/13: Which do you prefer, Super Meat Boy or The Impossible Game?

03/07/13: What's your favorite point-and-click game?

03/08/13: Who would win in a fight, Dark Link or Metal Sonic?
 * Considering I sort-of haven't played a game that has Dark Link (maybe in Ocarina of Time 3D, I don't remember) I'm gonna go with Metal Sonic. "Must! Milk! To! Digimon Adventure for PSP!!" Ethanthegamer (talk) 13:42, March 14, 2013 (UTC)
 * I would probably go with Dark Link.  He can block anything Metal Sonic could throw at him using the Hylian Shield, and he could use the Master Sword or any of his other items to destroy Metal Sonic easily.

03/09/13: What's your favorite New Super Mario Bros. game?

03/10/13: Which game do you like better, Super Mario Sunshine or Pikmin 2?
 * Since I haven't played Pikmin 2, I'm gonna go with Super Mario Sunshine. "Must! Milk! To! Digimon Adventure for PSP!!" Ethanthegamer (talk) 13:42, March 14, 2013 (UTC)
 * I haven't played either, honestly, but they seem equally good.  In terms of look, I'm thinking Pikmin 2, because it just looks more like my kind of game. "No copyright law in the universe is going to stop me!" Element Knight 375 (talk) 06:02, March 16, 2013 (UTC)

03/11/13: What's the most hilarious glitch you've ever seen in a video game? 03/15/13: Do you think there should be a handheld Xbox console?
 * I actually don't remember if I had encountered such a glitch, but I'm gonna go with IDK. :/ "Must! Milk! To! Digimon Adventure for PSP!!" Ethanthegamer (talk) 13:42, March 14, 2013 (UTC)
 * Well, there are a number of hysterical glitches in Sonic '06, but I haven't played that.  So here's one I have encountered: in Star Wars Bounty Hunter, there is a level where you can have Jango Fett climb halfway up a ladder, with melee enemies coming to the bottom of the ladder attempting to attack him; since Jango auto-targets enemies nearby, so if you have him sit in the middle of the ladder with a couple enemies below, he starts waving his arms like crazy trying to target them.  Amazing.  "No copyright law in the universe is going to stop me!" Element Knight 375 (talk) 06:02, March 16, 2013 (UTC)

03/16/13: Who would win in a fight, Black Mage from Final Fantasy or Ganon from the original Legend of Zelda?
 * Magic vs. might. Hmmm... It's like hikari (light) against yami (darkness): it's never ending! ...Though, in terms in height, however, Ganon would crush Black Mage like a boss. :D "Veemon SHINKAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!! ExVeemon!" Ethanthegamer (talk) 02:03, March 19, 2013 (UTC)
 * I think it's a pretty tough choice.  The way I see it, Ganondorf is devious, but I think Black Mage is just as devious, and on top of that, he's crafty, and I think he holds back some of his true power.  In all, I think he would probably outdo Ganon.
