  • Perplexed Player Pans Re:Jobbed on RHDN

    Played Another Site’s Version Without Heeding Its Instructions

    The following reflects the personal opinion of clymax and does not necessarily reflect the opinion of any other individual of the FFV Central community or of the community as a whole.

    This post is made becauase Romhacking.net (RHDN) doesn’t have a way for a modder to reply to a player review, unlike other sites such as Romhack Plaza (RHP).

    The player review specifies version 1 of Re:Jobbed, which is not the version (0.8) hosted on RHDN here.

    So what’s this version 1, and where can it be found? Version 1 (beta) is hosted exclusively on RHP here. According to the hack submission, version 1 has two builds:

    Instead of checking the instructions or asking for assistance, our player leaves a review concluding the hack is “unfortunately broken,” when maybe it’s the player who unfortunately won’t read.

    So, what do you think? Comment below, or come check us out on Discord.

  • Case Study: Player Etiquette in the Romhacking Scene

    Final Fantasy Series Translations

    For clymax’s projects, click here. You can also follow him on YouTube or Twitter.

    The following reflects the personal opinion of clymax and does not necessarily reflect the opinion of any other individual of the FFV Central community or of the community as a whole.

    On an unspecified FF Discord, a player learns about a private mod of our community.

    He’s then encouraged to join by a member of the translation team of the mod in question.

    On FFV Central Discord, the player joins and dips immediately after obtaining the private mod.

    It’s a translation our team had been working on for over a year – for a mod that spans three roms.

    In contrast, the player’s total time spent on the server was not even three minutes.

    Back on the unspecified FF Discord, the player raves that the private mod he just took “fucking rules.”

    Maybe it does. Unlike his player etiquette though, which fucking sucks.
