Need to prettify the exterior of the minecraft lighthouse a bit, methinks.

And the best part is, Sveta can read the minds of dead people, too, for some reason. So you can even read the minds of grave markers in the DS one.

And yeah Shyria, the Lighthouse is kind of uggs right now, but I was thinking it'd be a good idea to finish the interior before starting on the outside.

Of course, I was watching that LP video I think we were both using as a guideline, and he's in Venus Lighthouse for like, the next 3 updates. And THEN he reaches the top. So it's going to be freaking huge.

I'm a little worried construction will have to stop because we'll hit the top of the map.

Give command has been enabled; make the outside out of obsidian? An if you hit sky, excavate around the lighthouse and restart from a smaller y

For perspective, I've been an op since I logged on, which means I've been pumping out free stone for Shyria and I since the beginning of the project. I've already used obsidian for any "bottomless pits" in the area, and a black lighthouse would look sort of silly in my opinion anyway. Also? We've only just gotten to the entrance of the "real" lighthouse after 2 friggin' days of work. Starting from scratch ain't gonna happen from my perspective.

But hey, enough complaining out of me.

I would really love if Camelot just pulled a Rare, and took their kiddy franchise right into mature territory and then got bought out by Microsoft so they could use the Xbox's raw technological power. Could you imagine a Golden Sun game with the same tone as, say, Mass Effect?

I mean, there's so much material there that you could do some friggin' serious debate over. There are a handful of people in the world who can level a city with their minds, the Warriors of Vale caused an event that purportedly saved the world from eventual extinction but in the meantime screwed EVERYONE up, there's some racism going on with the whole Belinsk/Beastmen deal, basically everything related to Champa is controversial as hell... it just feels painful that so much of it gets ignored in favor of stuff like saving trees from an evil dream monster.

"You know what would be great? If Rare made a new Perfect Dark game for a Microsoft console instead of Nintendo console"

Then Perfect Dark Zero happened.

I'm not sure how much of an influence would Nintendo have over what a developer does with a game (in this case, GS) but, I don't think going to another console would make a definite change for the best.

Remember again that your actions in this game result in thousands more people dying, complete with seeing their bones lying on the ground to show off just how bad you fucked up.

But it's okay, you fixed it
so everyone loves you =D

I was never a Perfect Dark fan so I can't comment on your analogy (I was referring to Conker Live and Reloaded) but the thing we know for absolute certain is if GS went over to Microsoft, it would have the potential to be a much more technologically impressive game. That's all I was saying.

Hell, it could get a more Mass Effect-ish tone without leaving Nintendo. At the time, 1) I had Conker in mind and 2) I was thinking about how much cooler Golden Sun would look if it had graphics comparable to Final Fantasy 13.

I feel that GS would actually lose out if the graphics were more flashy. its... not that kind of game

Then again, i only played the first one, so what do I know?

How flashy are we talking about here? Because if you mean more flashy than sprites, then I'll let you decide.
