I was wondering, is it Pier Soul err, or pier soul are, in the spirit of Lunar?

If it's in the spirit of Lunar, then it's Pier Soul-er.

The battles are in the spirit of Lunar, yes.  In fact I often get Lunar vibes when playing the game.  But it is still unique unto itself.  I don't think anyoen will call it a "Lunar rip-off".

I am glad they sold out of the second run.  All you noobs should've had the faith to order when it was announced.  My shits be 1337.

I think everyone who wanted the game did preorder print 2.

Which goes to show you they should have just done a larger print 1 instead of being dipshits.

If it's in the spirit of Lunar, then it's Pier Soul-er.


euh.  Considering they say "Loon-Are" in Lunar .....you might wanna rethink that.

Japan is retarded, according to you. :)

They say Loon-Are in the Japanese one, and Loon-are in the English one.  They probably say it in the English one to match the Japanese pronunciation.   

Please: if you're going to troll, do it right.  Make your 303 and rising post count actually worth something.

I know how it's pronounced in the game.  In case it wasn't clear enough, I'm talking about what real people call it.  You have not disproved my point.

As far as worthiness of post content, sometimes there's more worth in under 337 than in a whole 3370.

So you're saying the creators of the game, the story writers, the voice actors, the advertising people, and anyone who listens to them are retards.  Cool.  Hows that meth working out for you?

Sometimes.  One day we might see that instance.  This certainly isn't it, considering the majority of your posts are trolling your two favorite PCE people for whatever stupid reason you've got.

I think they made 2400 of the first production run, that's way more than most other homebrews.

Also, I think the cardboard boxes were printed WAY ahead of time before the game started to sell out while it was still in the pre-order stage.  If you read the text on the boxes it makes a huge deal about the "20th anniversary".  The Sega MegaDrive was released in 1988 in Japan.  Initially based on other homebrew sales they probably never expected to sell all 2400 so quickly.

So if they already had a set number of boxes finished and ready, that would explain why pre-orders started to "sell out".

The RePrint was only on sale for about 2 weeks before it sold out, and that won't ship until February.  In the past *i think* they said it takes about 1 month from when they put in a production order at the factory to when the cartridges are finished.  So if it's shipping in February they probably put in the production order right around the time it went on sale 2 weeks ago.  Unfortunately it looks like they underestimated demand again.  But they said on twitter they'll be making more.

Trolling?  No -- I am a mirror that reflects your hypocrisy.

Have you become such a publishing expert that you can so relentlessly, so mercilessly, attack the manner others choose to structure their releases?  On matters of design, have you demonstrated the ability to be a critic, or have you simply demonstrated the ability to have an opinion?  Are you a positive force in gaming, or are you the poison that pollutes the well of homebrew?

Rhetorical questions.  There's no point in answering, because your answers will be wrong.  You label me a "troll" because you don't like to be challenged.  You have created games, therefore you are a game creator.  You have played games, therefore you are a game player.   You should be able to face others armed with sense and experience.  Instead, you desperately try to make your peers and competitors look like bugs.

If your peers and competitors are bugs, then what are you?

A can of RAID? :lol:

Seriously guys... I think the back and forth here isn't doing anyone any favors and is most certainly not accomplishing anything. No one's perfect.

What hypocrisy.   I don't go around directly bothering other people.  That doesn't actually accomplish anything.  Sometimes you may pose a valid point, but here at PCEFX you let your personal opinion of someone get in the way and make it less effective via being a tard.  Voicing concerns/opinions against a thing/event is different than just bothering/attacking the person responsible for the thing.  Learn how to separate the two!

Well, I didn't screw up my first publication, so if I suggest others do what I did (press somewhere that isn't China?), it's probably a safe bet I'll be right.  Its not an expert opinion, but its a safe bet.

Even if I did screw up, thats fine.  That would give me the right to tell others "Hey I did this and it didn't work, you might not want to do that".  Again, not an expert opinion, but a safe bet.

Pressing CDs in China, getting a crap batch, and then coming up with all kinds of excuses for the bad discs, is bad mojo.  Don't do that.  Just admit you messed up.

They f*cked up pre-orders, and people weren't happy.  Still, theres a right way and wrong way to complain.  You let your I-don't-like-roverness get in the way of griping about MSR's messed up preorders.  What could have been relatively painless got flared up because you wanted to make Rover look stupid.  If you didn't mostly just make little jabs towards people, people wouldn't constantly have the wrong idea about what you're doing.

Yeah its a bit hypocritical to defend MSR and complain about PS.  The reason I defended MSR is because you made it pretty clear you had a personal problem.  Noone griping about PS has some personal grudge with the team, as far as I can tell.

Theres nothing relentless or merciless about what I said.  You act like I made everyone cry themselves to sleep and throw in the towel forever.   I don't think anyones that big of a sissy.  I hope the PS guys learned from the debacle and can avoid a problem for print 2, and if there is a problem again, be better prepared to address said problem.

Speak for yourself?   It depends how you look at it anyways.  I'm a loudmouth.  I'm blunt/abrasive.  That being said I get shit done, and try to involve the community as much as possible.  I'm generally pretty obnoxious and like to f*ck around.  Eventually maybe you'll realize this crap and we can stop with the back and forthing and get along.  Look at me and nectarsis!  I went from f*ck THAT GUY HES A DICK to Hey, hes alright.   I think he did the same (I hope? hah)

Also, when I'm arguing a point, it seems others are usually saying/thinking the same thing... so it's not like I'm just waving my dick around and being an a$$hole for nothing.  Not everything in life has to be sugar coated.

You are a positive force with your review site, etc., when you aren't doing shit like bugging people just because you think you need to.

Wrong? You don't get to pick whats right and wrong, lol..  What are you challenging me, or anyone with?  Pointless jabs, and threads like GUYS IMA MAKE A 8 PART SHOOTER GAME FOR THE PCE ITS GONNA BE AWESUM, aren't really challenges.  You yourself pose no challenge to anyone.  You're just a reviewer guy that likes to instigate.  Before I knew that's what you were doing, I actually thought you were going to be working on a game, and got excited.  I was like "oh f*ck thats going to be alot of work I hope they actually do it".  Way to go.  Its things like that that sorta ruin your credibility.

I do face others armed with sense and experience, I just do it in a way that probably tends to piss people off.  Oh well.  People toughen up.

I'm not trying to make anyone look like bugs.   You act like I am full on assaulting developers across the board.  Theres nothing desperate about what I am doing.  Most of what I stay remains here at PCEFX.  If it were desperate, I'd be flailing around at every other forum possible, saying everyones an idiot.  I support homebrew for better or worse.  When people f*ck up like this, you get in there and get dirty, and everyone learns from it.  I try to get others involved in homebrew, I try to encourage new people, I support the stuff locally (Like Zaku), I buy SFT's games even though I think the guy in charge is a jackass.  I'll be getting print run 2 of Pier Solar even though I think the second print is kind of a ripoff and they screwed up.

That being said, I understand WHY they screwed up and why they're charging more.  The discs are broken, they underestimated costs, they lost money.  That sucks.  They deserve my 45$.

Theres a difference between trolling the same person over and over like a pissant (you do this, unfortunately), and voicing pissed off concerns about a game you've been interested in for awhile that had a pretty bad release... and once its over, its over, move on to something else.

You don't see me at Pier Solar's forum jabbing at the team, calling them retards, or making posts meant to instigate.   Thats all you dude.  We all know you just post little one liners to bother people you have a problem with.

I voiced reasonable concerns that others agreed with both here, and on PS's forum.  I mentioned things that should've been done, and questioned wtf they were doing.  The team in question was giving some pretty dickhead responses for whatever reason, and even danced around the problems like they were trying to cover it up.  But now, all of the cats are out of their respective bags, we know what happened and why print 2 is happening like it is. 

I don't see you bothering people like Clessy, who are on the other side of the fence.  That guy, whoa man.  He ain't right.

anyway, I got this crazy idea.  Why don't you post on PCEFX in general, instead of just to do stuff like this?  Maybe we can all get along and agree on crap.  I see you finally got a forum avatar.  Maybe you planned to do this already?

I haven't been reading all of this nonsense, but I am really starting to enjoy the game again after some frustrating parts.  Let's hope it keeps up!
