I'd like to see those drawings, too. I always enjoyed the art that would be generated by threads, it'd be great to get that going here. Sadly, my artistic skills are all music-related, so I can't really contribute :smith:

Drawings, hell. We need a playthrough with a pink Rydia named Jem as the first character.

I don't think I can specify starting colors, sadly.

You're playing this on an emulator, right? Just keep restarting and fast-forwarding until the first character is revealed until you get the one you want, then save-state for the start of the video. Am I right to assume there are no more than 5 versions of each character (enough for a full party)? With fast-forward it shouldn't take too long.

It's determined per seed, so it'd involve creating a whole new seed every time.

Yeah, I finally checked out the site. I hadn't realized a whole new ROM had to be generated for each seed.

So basically, the only way to guarantee pink Rydia would be to overwrite Rydia's sprite data with a hex editor, right? Sounds doable - especially since the LPers have already found a seed in which Jem exists - but not necessarily trivial.


EDIT - Correction: you'd lift Jem's sprite data from the old ROM with the hex editor, copy it to the appropriate file type and flash it to the new ROM through the emulator, right?

You can tell this isn't my wheelhouse.

Well, you got lucky--we found one REALLY close.

...and when I say "REALLY close", you'll have to watch to found out why its not exact!

Wow. 8-bit Jem is... amazing.

Indeed. Thankfully, no one else is the same.

Wow. Jem's behavior at the end was outrageous. Truly, tr- okay, I'll stop now.

But seriously, imagine Jem's mental state after that Golbez fight. You're a little girl in a world full of big, scary things trying to kill you, and all your friends - all the people who've been keeping you alive - have just been slaughtered right in front of you. You're alone, vulnerable and terrified. In desperation, you can only turn to a group of complete strangers and hope they're not even worse than the monsters you fight...

...And you're still not desperate enough to go anywhere with Edward.

loving beautiful.

A group of people that look almost exactly like the ones that were just killed, no less.

No, she's just using Synergy's hologram tech to make them LOOK like her old friends. She's still in denial about what happened and everyone's too afraid of her nuking them with Bahamut to stand up to her.

No wonder she drank wine and went berserk :v:

I doubt going through all of puberty in 2.5 seconds flat did much for her stability, either.

Poor girl. You really could write this run as a horror story from her POV.

...and we'll be seeing enough Edward for one lifetime soon enough, so he's not getting any more stage time then he deserves.

Can you actually force 5 Edwards?

Hang on, did you have a unihorn in your inventory at the end of your previous video? If so, you could have saved yourself by curing Jem's berserk status!

Well, now that I've (re)learned my lesson about Bacchus only being usable on the person selecting it, I shouldn't need it.

.....right? :mmmhmm:

If you find another way to screw yourself that could have been prevented by something you casually threw away, I will quote this back at you MERCILESSLY.
