Hero or Villain: Armageddon (demo version, new character sketches in post #62)

Ok, a small update (as I have been very absent from the forums, end of term over here in Japan so quite a lot of things to finish). I have managed to scrape some time from here or there and the game has made substantial progress (though still not updated here or in the private playtesting thread, as I still need to tidy up some connections and debut myself, etc).

But, I will leave it at this with some of the preliminary sketches that my artist has made of some of the new characters (still not final…)

Thanks for the reply, means a lot. Few more questions I want to ask you and then I’ll stop nagging you for awhile.

  1. Do you think an MC that has (91+) Endurance can take hulk level strikes in return?

  2. Since you say, a (91+) Strength MC has Superman level strikes, do you think a MC has enough power in their strikes to destroy a city or even planet bust if they really wanted to?

  3. In the description of attributes for (91+), it says “you can lift hundreds of tons.” Does that cap out at 1000 tons or can the MC lift much higher? Could a MC that has (91+) Strength lift tall buildings?

  4. Could the power from a MC that has (91+) Strength send a opponent flying? Like, across a city or even to other cities?

  5. Does the power from the stones give the powered any sort of Decelerated ageing? Like living for hundreds or thousands of years?

  6. Could a MC that has (91+) Agility leap over bulidings in a single bound?

Have you actually read the game itself? Or any games this author has published? There’s a difference between a couple of rough sketches (that the artist, not adrao made) and a finished product. Unless you’re volunteering to actually assist, that’s a pretty unhelpful sentiment.

Man misspelled destruction, chapter 1, completely unplayable smh.

EDIT: I am on screenreader mode because I prefer to read the letters normally, this was also on the rebels thing in chapter 1.

Is this sarcasm that my tired brain is missing, or are you seriously suggesting it’s unplayable because of the occasional spelling error while they’re being worked on? (In which case I’d stay away from the vast majority of WIP hosted games.)

Anyway, if you’d like to help, perhaps nicely point out where the error is so it can be fixed rather than sniping? I’d also like to advise that this error is not in the latest version I’ve seen so it’s likely the demo just hasn’t been updated yet to incorporate the changes. Honestly not interested in starting an argument here on someone else’s game thread though, so I’m going to peace out :peace_symbol:.

(Spelling error I’m gathering you’re concerned, but it has already been fixed in the test game.)

Sarcasm, sorry for my unsrupulous attitude.

The motto for these games is that everything is fueled by the unstoppable power of your imagination so i don’t see why not, if you wanna imagine your mc as a planet busting immortal superman then go for it that’s what headcanon and fanfiction is for.

also some of the terms you use make me recognize a fellow battleboarder when i see them just out of curiosity what other forums do you frequent?

Thanks for your reply. I see what your saying, but I can’t use headcannon for this. The Author, indirectly, has some kind of limit for a (91+) Strength/Durability MC that is set in the text and I need to know that limit, so I can truly know what a MC powerhouse is capable of. Knowing what a powerful character is capable of and also knowing what they can’t do is everything for me. (Hope you can understand what I mean)

Also, you do have a keen set of eyes, as I frequently roam around comicvine. I try not to get into too many debates, but I might find myself in one every now and then. I usually go into DCEU vs MCU topics. :+1:

I just uploaded the latest files to the game, so hopefully some more spelling stuff should be sorted :slight_smile:

@Cooldude89979 Post #63,

  1. A MC with Endurance 91+ should be able to take 4x punches from the hulk (the hulk would be damage somewhere at 90-100, with the MC with endurance 91 having HP 360-400 (assuming no armour).

  2. Mmmmmmm… ok, then lets not say superman but just the Hulk. I don’t think the hulk can destroy a city or even a planet (well, the hulk can destroy a city over a prolonged period of time, as seen in films).

  3. My own feeling on this is that it is borderline… though I guess on one occassion I remember the hulk could withstand (barely) the weight of a mountain, but not lift it (basically just proping it).

  4. Should certainly be able to send somebody flying… possibly even very high in the atmosphere?

  5. The issue of aging is to be talked about later in this game…

  6. Should be able to indeed.

The reason for the limit is that… well, I used the Marvel Superheroes rulesets as the base. These have a “limit” of 100… although there is another class (for Galactus like creatures) above it. But, that should be unnatainable for the MC… at least until later in the last game? (mmmmmmm)

More questions for you Adrao, if you don’t mind answering them.

  1. When a MC gains a flying ability, it says, they should be able to fly roughly similar to their running speed. Is that the limit or can a MC who fly’s and other in universe flyers, can they fly at mach speeds?

  2. Can you expand upon whether you think a (91+) Strength MC can lift tall buildings or not? I know you already said there’s a borderline, but if you could expand. Also expand upon whether they can go above 1000 tons.

  3. How much time has passed between the ending of HoV: Genesis and HoV: Battle Royale?

  4. Do people (during the events of Battle Royale) notice your gone. Both your Superhero and Civilian persona, and will people be able to connect the dots of the MC being a superhero?

  5. Will there be an option at the end of the game to go back to earth and reveal your identity to all of the world?

  6. Could a MC that has (71+) agility also jump buildings in a single bound.

  7. Where would you place a MC that has all of their stats maxed out (No speed, Armor, Etc… just stats) in the Marvel Universe and the DC Universe?

  8. What is Shiroi Yuki’s origin story. How did she first come out as a Superhero and why was she quickly known as the world’s most powerful Superhero? (PIS towards the MC)

  9. When a MC gains (91+) agility, it says, they can dodge lasers with minimum effort. Would that make a MC who has (91+) agility, have light speed reactions and if so, does this only apply to (91+) agility or lower?

  10. Who are the most powerful characters (besides the MC) in all of the HoV universe? If you could, give me a tier list. (Without the MC)

  11. If a MC has (2x) Animal Speed, how fast would you say that is?

  12. (Suggestion) If we find a stone/stones in HoV: Arm, I think we should be able to have the possibility to develop and choose a new power we didn’t have before. Like picking up a stone and developing the power to fly or the power to stick to walls. Like in the becoming a vampire route.

Also, let me know if I’m bothering you with all of these questions at all. I don’t want to be a bother.

@adrao I also have a question it’s one i’ve asked before but i never got an answer, you said at the end of the game we can choose to conquer a planet will we be able to conquer earth?

I almost want an option where you can side with the elders. I mean at this point both factions have super advanced technology and they are both using it to get the peace that their faction desires.
I think the path that would genuinely make me lol is if you could just gather all of the fighers from the tournament and make a faction that’s just like “The strong will decide all the laws” and do something crazy like from DR. STONE and just get a massive army of tough people then attack both factions :joy:

Those would be fun options.:ok_hand:

I think he said in a previous thread for the last game that siding with the elders would indeed be an option.

You know, it is an interesting prospect. I wonder what the Elders would give for the MC to be on their side, and why the Elders would want the MC to be on their side anyways considering they deem seeded species beneath them, from dialogue back in Battle Royale.

Well don’t forget most canonical endings involve the MC either circumventing the system through crime or straight up beating it and since winning the tournament seems to be at least a little important to them maybe if you got that specific ending the elders would be willing to work with you. :confused: idk

I mean, did we really win the tournament? Didn’t The Steel Aeronaut double-cross and kill all of her teammates? Wouldn’t that inside tampering invalidate the MC’s win?
