@matana @beardalaxy PSII has a title screen and an intro, but it's menu is still a black background.

@beardalaxy I honestly don't know how to make it look better. You don't want to have a bunch of random PowerPoint style animations but you also don't want some static JPEG background.

Another thing you can try is have a map of one of the game's locations or the entire overworld. Have it somewhat animated like having the waves of the oceans crashing stars twinkling.

However, I can tell that your game is pretty dark judging from the basic plot, so I think a simple title screen would be more fitting for that. Look at Majora's Mask title screen compared to Ocarina of Time's title screen. The first part of MM title is pitch black with the titular mask and the Happy Mask salesman while Ocarina of Time's title screen shows Link riding his horse in Hyrule Field.

@beardalaxy The Hyrule Historia says that the Gerudo Desert became Hyrulean territory after the war. Suggesting that it was either independent or a disputed territory prior to the war. Hylians are the chosen people of Hylia and they probably view the entirety of Hyrule as their sacred land, including the desert. So, it's safe to assume that religion was involved in some capacity.

@sjw @Moon I'm starting to think that Moon is the one behind the hachi account on DRC.

@beardalaxy I don't know why, but I'm not digging the whole characters fading in and out repeatedly and the game's title moving up and down. It feels like something done using default animations in Microsoft PowerPoint.

Your game is 16-bit RPG inspired right? Most of those games had very simple title screens (just logo and a simple background or solid color). Main menus were pretty simple too. Even Final Fantasy had just a menu in front of a black background throughout the 8-bit and 16-bit eras.

If you want to have good first impressions, just have a good intro/attract mode. I don't know how hard it is to do that in RPG Maker. If you can't do it in engine, I'm pretty sure you can just play a video file within RPG Maker.

@beardalaxy
>There are apparently people who think that because Hylians are inspired by medieval Europeans and Gerudo are inspired by Islamic Middle Easterners, they MUST have had holy wars at some point.

I can't think of any other reason why the Hyrulean Civil War started before the events of Ocarina of Time. The Gerudo seems to have the most tension with the Hylians (maybe outside the Sheikah) so it's best to assume there was a conflict between them at some point.

@djsumdog @Therealdcgirl@noagendasocial.com @book How are you able to get a job with your political views?

@PhenomX6 Or just stick with imageboards or other sites that don't require a persistent id.

@sjw I don't even know the difference between any of them. All I know is that they are better than SHA-1.
