Russ is absolutely a Type B player. He makes content extremely rude and challenging just to laugh at the people who suffer through it. He may look innocent but his eyes hold blood red hatred almost on par with Evan.

I can see that people want a lite mode of LoH:IU.  Please go into LoH:IU and do it yourself.  Understand that I'm not going to do it since there's zero incentive and motivation for me to make such a thing.  No amount of talk on the forums or bad ratings is going to change this.  I'm perfectly happy with LoH:IU just the way it is and I'm not going to spend 100s of hours making a lite mode.  You can even get rid of the fire-gel and armos rooms since they won't be necessary anymore.

 

A focus group is a large group of people hired by industry to test consumer reactions to a product and advise whoever is making the product how they can improve it to go down better with consumers.  So a type A focus group would continually work with a type B game developer to ensure that type A tastes are accommodated for in a particular game.  The focus group is generally paid regardless of whatever feedback they give.  This is to ensure that frank opinions are encouraged to be spoken and that people won't fear losing their pay if they speak out against the product.

 

This is standard industry practice that is used in many countries in many industries for a long time to ensure that their product sells well with their target audience.  Obviously hiring such a big group of people for a long time requires money.  Money that industry hopes to recover when the product is available for sale.  This isn't possible in ZC so people here need to get used to the idea that games are going to be segregated according to what type of player you are.  The solution to this is money, lots and lots of money, and that isn't something available to ZC quest makers.

Simply, I think to defeat the super bosses of Yuurand makes B Players history of ZC much better. I attempt to defeat TE Tartaros of them, but can't kick even it yet.

Nobody is asking right now. Nobody cares about a lite mode of LoH:IU, cause that's not why people play it.

However, what people are saying is that you should go play Yuurand as Sadistic mode + all the terrible shit Evan's put into the game means Yuurand is now the hardest quest in the database, far harder than Insanity Unchained. I now play Insanity Unchained to cool off because Yuurand has become so hard that IU is a casual game by comparison.

There IS a lite mode, isn't there? The magic key?

[James24]

There is no lite mode for LoH:IU and there will never be a lite mode unless someone else makes it.

What is the password for the quest? On my way to make "Type A" mode. I'll also add a story, at least nine hours of cut-scenes, and I will compensate you with zero dollars cause lololol fan game? Unless?

 

Don't worry, I'll keep that first dark spike room to keep them on their toes, but the twist is, instead of damage, you gain health from the spikes. You will be able to farm one heart container for every 256 damage you take/ gain.

at least nine hours of cut-scenes

When you port every prerendered cutscene in the entire kingdom hearts series to ZC, I won't even be able to be mad. I'll be too impressed to be mad.

It doesn't need one. If anything I'd make it harder.

If I'm not spending an actual week on a boss, then your quest is casual easy type A crap

I should have been dumping frames from the Chain of Memories ROM, but instead, I'm making nine hours of H scenes from <insert ZC palette compatible game here>

 

Edit: oop meant to quote Evan, but still kinda works?

 

I'll call it LoH:TP, if you catch my drift.

[OUCH!]

I think the LOH;IU should also add a beautiful and vast overworld

[James24]

There is no password for LoH:IU.  Feel free to do whatever you like with it.  If I think its a good lite mode, I'll endorse it and we can submit it together as a joint quest.  But the thing which will really get my attention is if the lite mode sells well with type A.  I don't think such a thing is possible because LoH:IU is a very combat centric quest.  Its like Zelda 2: The Adventure of Link - which is the dark sheep of the Zelda series.  To sell well with type A, a quest needs to focus on puzzles, exploration, a beautiful and vast overworld, storylines and combat needs to be very easy to non-existent. 

 

However, if the lite mode does sell well, and ZC makes it onto steam then we should discuss our mutual future together.  I'm sure there's plenty of profits to be made.
