Since of my first critic posting (2 mins ago) i decided to make a critic thread!
Feel free to post your suggestion what should i do next,commentate on the thread i used my newb critic skills on,and so much more...
Lets start this thing!
1st discussion - Pets
Pets,pets,pets,pets. A discussed topic by everyone who wants/trys to make a thread about pets. In real life,i have 2 cats,and they sure do fight good.
Anyways,pets are hard to put in the game as... Houses. But thats another one ill be taking on later. Now,how pets should be put in SK,is in a hostile/non-hostile way. Hostile's fight,non-hostiles rather pick up materials. How they fight,doesnt matter,you just need 2 classes of pets,and your done. Now,whenever i see the word "pets" in a thread,i think of WoW. Their pet system is balanced because there arent any specific damage typed monsters.
However,SK has 4 types of damage. Oh,if only every enemy in the game dealt normal damage,pets would be easy to fit in the game as a thread to a forum.
I've seen threads about pets,the only valid one being by Autofire (+1 to that). Now,someone will try to outbeat Autofire's thread about pets,and if they fail,they will be deemed a thread tryhard by me.
Now,lets talk about the effects pets would do to Spiral Knights.
1. Faster Boss finishing (if the pet has the attack that the boss is weak to),which in my book is just pointless.
2. Showoff's. Alot of people would be like: zOMG yer petz sow week fat hef feer won. I would punch those kind a newbs.
3. Trinket slot waste. You have 2 trinket slots. You use one for your pet,and one for your heart pendant. Now,where does my sword speed bonus go? Right in my sandwich as my meal maybe?
4. Attack balancing. If OOO said that they would release pets,it would be MONTHS before they even finish balancing attacks.
And thats just about it.
5. BOSSES DROPPING PETS. Magic. *snortsnort*
...
I really shouldn't wake up and read these type of suggestions.
