I figured "Hey, as creative as the ATG is, they're all probably sitting there with new item ideas buzzing in their heads..." or something along those lines.

In fact, I even had my own idea just now. Here it is as an example.

Gaia should release an EI that starts at childhood, having a baby pose for your avatar and including items like a bib, bottle, baby doll, etc. Then it could go on to poses of childhood late and early having things like toys, a bicycle, a dirty face (playing outside?), and simply things like that. Next, adolescence with a pimply face, voice crack emote, drool option (symbolizing a new-found obsession with the opposite sex), etc. From there it'd go into early adulthood, maybe having a computer, car keys, maybe a failed term paper or something like that. Then of course late adulthood with a bald spot for guys, crows feet for girls, various early-stage face lines etc. Lastly there'd be an elderly/bites the dust stage with pronounced lines, faded eyes, frail limbs and liver spots. A bald head for guys, grandma hair for girls. And then some avatar-shaped bones 'n' skeletons. (EDIT: Ooh, and of course Death would make an appearance. 3nodding )

Anyway, I'll shut up now. It was a thought that ran wild. Post your ideas and discuss them here. 3nodding

The Changeling Babies and Gimpi EIs were kinda like that....

Anyway, I'm stupid and uncreative so I have nothing to say at the moment. Sorry Pisces sweatdrop

Except with the Gimpi, you got a little companion person. It would be kinda funny to apply it to your actual avatar, instead of having a little sprite accompanying you.

Well, I think they should fix the system bugs, then recolor the older items (like, update and add to the colors,) and then fix the cash shop item prices. There should be a set price for EIs and Donation items, just like the MCs.

That said, I want more darkness-themed items. I'd like to see some inspired by older TV shows, like Voltron, Gundam, Thundercats, or Speed Racer. biggrin

Ooh ooh! *points to Steph* What she said!

I just thought it would be easier for the regular donators, so they know how mush cash they're going to spend. Not to mention that it would help keep the system from bugging out with so many errors to fix up the older items and clean out the excess junk that causes all the system problems. biggrin

I'm currently hosting a contest in the ATG clan...

Me, being the gamer that I am, would love to see something based off of video games. I understand the whole "copyright" Crap, but that can be avoided. Make some basic stuff that will work better for cosplays and such. Such as a plain black shield. There's no way Miyamoto could lay claim to something like that, yet it would be perfect for a Dark Link cosplay.

Anyway, make it an EI. Start it off as a gameboy or something. then have it morph into other stuff. Mainly weapons or clothes similar to that of video game characters, but not neccesarilly the same item.

If you can't tell, I'm still irked about the lack of decent shields for my Dark Link cosplay xd


...The prize is 5k. Why not swing by and check it out?

You know that Voltron Idea that Steph threw out earlier? What if, like the death whisper's final stage, you got different parts and could combine with other people to form Voltron/Megazord/Etc.? Would that not be awesome?

Pokemon. Or some equivalent. Though the Goh Reed or whatever it's called seems to be doing that with its "Pika-otter"

No it didn't, which makes me incredibly sad.

Please do not bump. Bumping is not allowed in the ATG since this guild is for discussion topics.

I think there should be more cultural store items and a series of just plain weaponry like just plain swords, bows, shields, maces, guns, and such ranging in color. They weapons don't need to be fancy either; and sold for a decent price with 20,000 being the highest price. Gaia also needs to fix the placement of weapons in our hands because some look really bad.

I remember when I first joined gaia, there was a page that had future plans: one thing was a weapon shop. If you look at the map of the Isle of Gambino there was an image of a shop with swords, and many assumed that would be the weapons shop. In Ian's old shop layout, there was also a basket full of weapons. Gaia never lived up to that promise.

Gaia needs to stop putting stuff in the Prize and Joy, because it's a pain in the wazoo to get tickets.
