Or like Star Sars.

I don't know if I want to have to code that. Or even if I COULD do that....

Exactly.

I have figured out the bosses. You'll have to fight multiple spread throughout the later parts of the game, ending with the strongest.

Everything is falling together. All the pieces of the puzzle are forming themselves.

And it is awesome, and I must thank you all again.

Unless there's maybe a sort of rival/opposing group/something-or-other involved which could serve as some sort of boss after the boss?

The goblins?
They're just using them to get weapons though, they probably don't know the danger of what they're doing.

I've never been that good at writing conflict.

Well Goblins are usually pretty stupid, so they'd probably be doing something wrong in the deal.

Idea: The Goblins are powering the weapons by siphoning energy from the Abomination's magic prison. Every weapon they make, the seal gets weaker.

No prob.

Buy how will the final bosses LOOK?
Tentacles are the staple for the EAs, but Lavos doesn't have tentacles and pulls off the look whereas C'thun is almost all tentacles.

You guys are great at this. A new barrel of ideas a day, it seems.

Again, thank you for all your help. I'm thanking you every other post, it seems, but they're all quite honest. I just have a lot of gratitude.

Also, tentacles are a bit cliche'd. I think there should be about six or so, each relating to an Element. (The extra one has no element!)

This works even in the comic.

You are all amazing.

Good plot point.

Shall we use this?

Tentacles are cliche, I'll admit that. But at least one of them needs a few.

No element? How about the sixth one is every element while no element at the same time with an elemental tentacle for each of the five elements?

I finally figured out what I'd like my cameo to be

Maybe someone has a pet dog named Decker

6n6 My ideas suck

Talking pet dog.

Airigh · Post by **Airigh** » Mon Dec 14, 2009 3:17 am

I should probably be able to do that, Decker.

Hey, talking dogs are awesome!

Spirit is every element combined. Having two elements that are every element combined would be very redundant.

Tentacle element!

Anyone? YES

Think of it: the ability to summon octopi or maybe even Cthulu at a very whim! To control everything with multiple arms! To not be overcome by the useless inflexibility of arms! To molest schoolgirls!

Re: I could have used a WoW boss, but CT is a classic.

I still gotta kill Yogg Saron & C'thun.

That seems like a good idea if there ever was one.
