Dark Fact in City of Villains! (not 56k friendly)
« on: August 14, 2007, 05:59:06 AM »
Hey guys.  I recently just nabbed City of Heroes/Villains a couple days ago and am in the process of creating Dark Fact as an official supervillain! :D I've only been tinkering with the character creation system but backed out due to needing more research into Dark Fact's actual appearance and powers.  I'll put up a few screenshots later to show how he looks and you can give me your opinions.  See ya later. :D

Well, after spending a couple of hours customizing my character, this is what I've got so far:

[ul][li]Unfortunately, there is no option in the character creation mode to give Dark Fact a cloak.  So, in its place, I gave him some armour since it's the only other medieval thing he's got.[/li][li]I couldn't get any screenshots of the character creation mode but I'll find a way to get a full frontal shot later.[/li][li]I had to call him Dark Priest Fact on the official ID card because Dark Fact was already taken.  Ah well, it's not like I had to call him Bob, the blue bastard or anything in his place. :P[/li][/ul]
And as promised, screens! :D

Here's me in prison.  I don't know why I'm in prison.  All you need to know is that I'm bustin' out! 8)

I don't know exactly what went on here, but I had to get a fellow prisoner his medication and thus, had to go and threaten the nurse to do it.  Yay! :twisted:

Just shootin' the breeze with another fellow convict. :)

This is what happens when you play with fire.  You burn stuff! :)

Just me burning up a few fellow inmates.  Just a little revenge against them for taking my Manwich from last night's Sloppy Joe bonanza. :twisted:

The best part about being a villain is going where you're not authorized.  Here, I get to trespass and blow stuff up! Hooray! :D

Apparently, some security guards didn't like what I was doing and decided to "punish" me for it.  Well, I had to be reasonable with em...so I decided to offer them a free tan.  Unfortunately, I overdid it. :P

I got to plant some explosives.  Go me!

And that's me standing proud for a job well done.  Being a villain never looked so good...I mean bad! :P

And that's all for the day.  I'll get some more screens up a bit later to show you all how I'm progressing on this game.  I'll also have some more info about Dark Fact's character attributes to share with you. :)

Sorry, but I don't see your library card on the books of Ys.  Now, RETURN THEM TO ME!!!

Adding PCE console specific layer on top of that, makes for an interesting challenge (no, not a reference to Ys II).

Awesome, looks great. I recall Dark Fact having red eyes though, maybe yellow.

There is no option to change eye color in this game, unfortunately.  What you see is what you get.  Hopefully that setback will be remedied in future versions.

Not bad at all shame about the color for the eyes though.

I guess,the most you can hope for is a patch that will let you do that in the future.

Wow, very cool.  Hmm, if someone else is called Dark Fact.....what does his character look like??

Okay, here's the attributes for my character:

1. Corruptor - This allows my character to manipulate natural elements such as fire, ice, or lightning to attack my opponents.  Considering that Dark Fact uses fire attacks, it was only natural to give him fire abilities.  The results are astounding! It really does make it look faithful to his powers in the original Ys games. :D
2. Magic - Considering that Dark Fact uses magic spells in Ys, it was only natural to assign him this attribute.  All other options are based off of mutation or technology which I say poop to that.
3. Primary Powers: Flare - Choosing between this and fireball, I went with flares considering that they do multiple amounts of damage on a single target and look just like the small fireballs that Dark Fact attacks Adol with on the platform during the final battle.  You can see the results from the screenshots posted above. :D
4. Secondary Powers: Dark Miasma - This allows Dark Fact to conjure up darkness from the netherworld to give him abilities to heal himself and weaken his opponents in the process.  While I've never seen him do this in the Ys games, it was the only logical choice given from the menu.  I'm not complaining though, as this power has saved my butt in battle multiple times. :)

And here are a couple of screens:


Here is me testing out my powers over a long distance.  Basically, I get to bug a few ships for a client and let's say, things didn't go as planned. :? No matter, they were no match for my dark powers! :twisted:

My first official use of the fireball power! I forgot to mention that after leveling up, I can add new powers to my arsenal.  So, the fireball power that I skipped initially has been finally added.  It sure came in handy in taking out the chief security officer at the runway! Look at that bang! :D

And here is my client.  I do a few odd jobs for him in order to build up my skills.  Nice fellow, albeit a little too paranoid sometimes.

Check back next time for some snake bustin' action! :D

What about when you fight Dark Fact and the background turns into dark space?
