Zwei!!

[tancients]

So with Zwei 2 mostly at the "get the map names done", zzblue and I have been working with Zwei!! rather than being idle.

That said, I was curious as to how many/much people cared about the naming feature in Zwei!! for Pokkle and Pipiro.

[Ascended Mermaid]

Me!

I do agree with Wyrdwad in that I generally like using the defaults, nothing beats the additional fun that can be had with changing the characters' names.

[Gamemusicfreak]

I never change the names, so it wouldn't matter to me either. The one time I did change the character's name was FF V, because I didn't like Bartz.

[yotaka]

I also tend to stick with default names wherever possible. I remember back in the good old cartridge days when I'd rent a game and all the save slots were full of whatever names a ten year old thought would be hillarious. No more, thank you very much.

Well, as for me, I tend to use default names. Tend to. And I know I'm getting glares riiiight now from a certain person... X"D

... Ahem.
While I would stick with the characters' original names in Zwei!!, I do have to say part of me would feel a bit "down" having any of the game's original features removed... It must be purism.

[Ranzor]

I always use default names when possible.

[schlagwerk]

Default names. I even went with Benjamin on FF Mystic Quest saves.. though especially because holy shit 8 character long name!

Yeah, it's just a case of the naming nomenclature only supporting 4 characters, of which neither Pokkle nor Pipiro fit. While possibly fixable, was wondering how high of a priority it'd be.

[Red Hairdo]

XD

Well, I'd personally say: if you people would like to, leave their names how they "should" be and remove the naming feature if it's getting in the way. Then, perhaps much later, for some version 2.0 of the patch, it could be considered? To have the original naming feature back?

Just throwing in ideas.

You could always default-name them "Pock" and "Pipi"... though I think that might give people the wrong ideas about them.

-Tom

I use Pock and Pip in my test save, but yeah. It's just something something while things happen.

Time spent translating:

30% on dialogue
70% on Pokkle's horrible puns that need to be solved creatively.

GRAHHHHHH ENOUGH POKKLE! THEY'RE TERRIBLE ANYWAY!

That's part of Pokkle's charm!

-Tom

I'm blaming Pokkle's 'charm' for causing the game to develop a memory overflow and making me unable to spend the rest of the day productively translating. D:

[yotaka]

A true wyrdsmith, to think up such a retch'd pun.

[Ascended Mermaid]

Indeed, what an unsavory gesture. Given the game's theme, you'd think they'd have called him "Pocky".

[psybuster]

Name everyone Sephiroth in FF7, the results are great, especially if you haven't played the game in a long time

[tancients]

Kite, the man of a thousand and one words....Bleh!

[tancients]

As an addendum if someone else with the PC version of Zwei!! can send me a PM, I have a few questions.

[tancients]

How bothersome, I'm getting black screens with Zwei patched, and zzblue nor any solution really, is in sight....Grrrrr.

[tancients]

"That's what she said"

[Raison D'etritus]

You posted that just to draw me out, didn't you?

Really, I can't imagine where these urban legends get started.
