Wizeman should have had Clawz in his lap to stroke like every good villain with a cat.

[Lumas Nocce]

I think Donbalon part two is more difficult than Bomamba. I love her!

Bomamba and Donbalon are BOTH really hard the second time.

So.... Bellbridge, the Unconcious Space, versus Bellbridge in the background of MyDream..... are they the SAME?!?!?!?! because, MyDream sort of is an unconcious space, just the random clutter of their minds....

[Kentilan]

I don't think they're the same. To me, My Dream looks like particular part of Nightopia whose appearance is shaped by memories of the other Nightopias, which are themselves shaped by memories of the real world. Does that make sense?

But then again it's strange that both kids can access the same My Dream. But I guess that's just a gameplay thing that you can disregard.

My thoughts exactly.

Perhaps their friendship allows the to have the same dreams?

[Kentilan]

Yes but at the beginning of the story, they didn't know each other and they still could both access My Dream.

[Razer112]

Maybe, THERE BOTH RELATED!!!!
*shocking plot twist*
DUN DUN DUUUUUUUUN!!!

Bomamba reminds me of my Ma'. She's a crazy cat lady too. O.O

Yeah, it's their memories of the the Nightopia..... but the city pops up waaaaaaaaaay before the final level. So, I read that you can actually change the background? Like you can get a forest?

[Razer112]

Random thought: I finally got that frickkin' Dream drop in My Dream!

[Kentilan]

Yeah, it's their memories of the the Nightopia..... but the city pops up waaaaaaaaaay before the final level.

Really? I thought it appeared only when you complete Bellbridge.
Well in that case, I guess the city in My Dream comes directly from memories of the real world... Just like the trees, they aren't from any level in particular...

So, I read that you can actually change the background? Like you can get a forest?

Yes I've read that too, but my city have never changed so I don't know if it's true.

It must be one of those things where you need a population the size of China plus the SuperPian and then ANYTHING CAN HAPPEN.

Oh, and congratulations, Razer-san. That little thinie drove me nuts for the first, like, year of my owning the game....

[Key-Chan]

I wonder what JoD would of been like if Sonic Team put another few months to a year to work on it a bit more.

[Mr.Me]

it would've been a lot better, thats what it would've been like

but now we'll never know

[Lumas Nocce]

What ever happened to the Girl-Octopaw from the concept art? Also, has anyone actually seen a Pian with cake on a fishingpole ingame?

[Key-Chan]

What ever happened to the Girl-Octopaw from the concept art? Also, has anyone actually seen a Pian with cake on a fishingpole ingame?

That is strange but on the other hand the girl octopaw was probably just an cocept idea for Helen's Link Challenge as for the pian with the cake I think Izuka wanted to see what a newer pian model would look like to contrast with the NiD pole cake pian (or something like that I don`t know.)
But also Gladius promises cake so... THE CAKE IS A LIE!!!

[Lumas Nocce]

That's Glados. I think.....

I hadn't thought of giving Helen her own Octopaw.....

[Rachell]

...if there were a female octopaw then...


NiGHTS: look! its octopaw! *evil grin*
Octopaw: PLEASE NO! I HAVE WIFE AND 10 SONS!!!















what's octopaw doing here?

[Razer112]

Random thought: I ONLY HAVE 3 MORE DREAM DROPS LEFT!!!!
The ones I'm missing are,
1. Crystal Castle - Chase Mission, That one thats in that glass thing that you have to break with the Light things
2. Crystal Castle - Labyrinth Guide, That one near the end.
3. Helen's Bellbridge - That one on the Dome Building in the 2nd chase.
I'm gonna try real hard to get them.

[Lumas Nocce]

"HAY looook, it's AWctopAW."

I would love to get more dreamdrops. I really should, y'know? But I forgot which I did already.....

[LUCiD]

Random thought:When will I be able to decide between NiGHTS, Jackle, or Reala for my favorite character, I've been trying to decide for weeks!!
Another one: Should I post the site that gives all the locations of the dreamdrops away on here?

[Key-Chan]

Thought: Am I the only one who thinks the My Dream is a waste of space?

Cause think about it, you really can't raise the Pians like in SA1&2 with the chao gardens and no mini-games so why have it? For the real time Wii weather channel feature? For interaction with other players with out batteling or racing? But hears a better question Sonic Team, why not roll that all into one??? And I think I may have ansewerd my question: they were "rushed" but thats still no exscuse any more because if Nintendo were to run into that problem they would lay it off for another few months to a year to make sure that pretty much everything had a place and a use. To follow some examples of delayed but great game: Orcarina of Time, Twilight Princess (music wasn`t too great but still a great game) and Smash Brothers Brawl just to name a few. But in my up most honest opinion I think JoD was just a quick cash in to make Sonic Team a quick buck.

lol Sorry for the rant, totaly went off topic for a sec.

SEGA doesn't have the same financial capabilities as Nintendo, you know. Besides, even if JoD had been perfect, I doubt it would have sold nearly as much as a Zelda game or SSBB, so delaying it might have been a bad decision, financially.

I finally got them all! I was laughing For about 30 minutes!

True but still they could have gotten some money from previouse games and merchindiseing cuase thats how they make it in the firts place. But you are right about if JoD was delayed it would finacialy hurt them pretty bad at the time but as some of us know now Sonic Team is being better about deadlines and finances, and I`m still looking forward to a new NiGHTS game in future from them.

Thought: If Crystal Castsle is a world of glass why donsn`t Reala just thow a few rocks to shatter the world and proceed to steal Helen`s Ideya from there?

[Lumas Nocce]

I LOVE MYDREAM

A LOT
So here's a random thought. I FiNALLY got my music to change for MyDream. I have the Bergamot flavor now.

[Razer112]

Yeah, I liked the MyDream too. In my opinion it was Slightly Better than the Chao garden in the original SA1.

Random thought: I got a Pink Ground in My dream! How's that supposed to look like Nightmare?

[Key-Chan]

The ground is pink because it's really man eating pink mashmallow monster disguised as a floor! O_O

Thought: I wonder what would happen if you threw a blue chip at NiGHTS or Reala?

[Kentilan]

That's funny, I recently got a pink ground too. And I have no idea why.

Thought: I wonder what would happen if you threw a blue chip at NiGHTS or Reala?

NiGHTS is in the Dream Gate, so you could try...

[StarsOfCASSiOPEiA]

I say go for it. XD

I keep thinking about NiGHTS because of cosplay. If I don't get something else at least started in the next week, I'm probably going to end up being NiGHTS all three days of Otakon next year. (Again. XD For the third year in a row. XD)

[Lumas Nocce]

I DID IT!! I threw a blue chip at NiGHTS and it bounced off his head. He didn' even flinch.

[Kentilan]

I DID IT!! I threw a blue chip at NiGHTS and it bounced off his head. He didn' even flinch.

So they did program it! I guess first-level marens are not vulnerable to Blue Chips then. Now I wonder about Owl...

[Razer112]

This is more of an overall NiD thought, But since SST is JOD styled, Yeah.
I WAS DUPED! My video game Rental Place Gave Me Sega Bass Fishing instead of Sega SuperStar tennis! What am I supposed to do? Go Fishing as NiGHTS and Reala? (Actually that sounds Pretty fun)

a.) Puffy.

b.) I think that there's already a Dreamdrop location thread.

Thought: Am I the only one who thinks the My Dream is a waste of space?

Yep, the Pians are cute.

He wears bat tights. DO you think his critical thinking and logic skills are well developed?

So here's a random thought. I FiNALLY got my music to change for MyDream. I have the Bergamot flavor now.

You can change the music? How?

Thought: I wonder what would happen if you threw a blue chip at NiGHTS or Reala?

I'd assume NiGHTS would collect it, like in the game.

...Bass fishing? How do you confuse "fishing" with "tennis"?

My thought: Was Aqua Garden designed specifically to become a tennis court? The area in JoD serves very little purpose otherwise...

[Kentilan]

He wears bat tights. DO you think his critical thinking and logic skills are well developed?

I will never understand why everyone says Reala wears tights. His arms and legs are clearly the same color as his face; how do people come to the conclusion that he's wearing anything? Do you think he's wearing tights that have the exact same color as his skin? Or transparent tights? And on his arms as well?

You can change the music? How?

There are 4 different musics for My Dream. But I don't know how they are chosen. Interestingly, each music is split into 4 part on the game disk, so I think the music is dynamic like in NiD's levels.

[Noctourne Wonderland]

The colours *are* the same, but tights are just an easy explaination. It's like NiGHTS hat and vest; for all we know, they're a part of his body, but "those things protruding from his scalp" and "that pink park of his torso" sound odd, to say the least. Referring to nightmarens markings in human terms make them sound less...animalian.

[Lumas Nocce]

You can change the music if your garden gets nice and complex. It's not like you have an option, but there's I think four flavors of Al-Di-La (the MyDream music.) The base one is Lavender. The really peacefull one is Bergamot, the one wiht all te beeps is Sandal wood, and the funky one is Peppermint.

[Lumas Nocce]

Also, if those are just his legs, then that's a hell of a lot of bat-shaped birthmarks.

[Kentilan]

Blame Wizeman for that
Besides, Reala has bat marks on his arms too. I guess Wizeman has a weird sense of aesthetics.

[viperxmns]

Something that I was thinking about: If JoD asked you to input your name and birthday. On your birthday, you go to My Dream. The Pians sing in the tune of 'happy birthday' (though the actual song is under copyright, so this may not be feasible, I dunno) and there's streamers and a huge cake with your name on it. That'd be neat.
