thethethethe says (11:47 AM):
I guess we'll start the same way as always with how did you start hacking?
jagolddemium says (11:47 AM):
I started hacking after I got interested to try it out after I saw one of Tamashii's videos on YouTube.
jagolddemium says (11:48 AM):
then my brother made a little research and found A-Map...
jagolddemium says (11:49 AM):
so I decided to investigate and found PC and there I found some interesting stuff and I decided to hack.
thethethethe says (11:50 AM):
You're fairly well renowned for the Ruby Destiny Trilogy, but were there any hacks before that?
jagolddemium says (11:50 AM):
no...
jagolddemium says (11:50 AM):
Reign of Legends was my first hack...
jagolddemium says (11:51 AM):
and I restarted it 3 times before I posted it on PC...
thethethethe says (11:51 AM):
So you've never quit on a hack...
jagolddemium says (11:51 AM):
no
jagolddemium says (11:52 AM):
I always wanted to finish things I started...
jagolddemium says (11:52 AM):
no matter how long it'll take me...
thethethethe says (11:52 AM):
I guess that's a good quality to have.
thethethethe says (11:54 AM):
Since you're working on the third game of Ruby Destiny, do you have any idea on what you'll be doing when you complete that hack?
jagolddemium says (11:56 AM):
actually, I made a decision of what I'll do after LoG(Life of Guardians)...
jagolddemium says (11:56 AM):
I decided that I'll remake Reign of Legends once again to make it even better.
jagolddemium says (11:56 AM):
and after that, Rescue Rangers...
thethethethe says (11:58 AM):
That sounds pretty interesting, I'd love to see a new Reign of legends as I wasn't a big fan of the one that was released at PC
thethethethe says (11:59 AM):
Many hackers have found an inspiration to hack from you, but where do you find your inspiration?
jagolddemium says (11:59 AM):
that's a bit difficult to answer...
jagolddemium says (12:00 PM):
well, my only inspiration is to make a new game for everyone to play
jagolddemium says (12:01 PM):
but also, I am inspired to hack because of Coolboyman, you(thethethethe), zel and Tamashii.
jagolddemium says (12:02 PM):
why? because they make a hack just for people to have a new game to play...
thethethethe says (12:03 PM):
You're quite open about how you believe hacking should be something to be done for fun and not to seek fame, but is there anything you dislike about hacking?
jagolddemium says (12:04 PM):
spriting, that's what I dislike of doing 'cause I have no talent in that field...
thethethethe says (12:05 PM):
So just spriting? Nothing else?
jagolddemium says (12:06 PM):
only spriting... I still need to learn about the field of editing the ROM using hex, so that's not in my dislike list.., for now...
thethethethe says (12:07 PM):
Have you ever considered quitting hacking?
jagolddemium says (12:16 PM):
well...
jagolddemium says (12:16 PM):
I can't deny that fact, so yeah, I once considered to quit on hacking when I was almost done with Rescue Rangers.
jagolddemium says (12:17 PM):
but the world is full of boredom so yeah, I can't stay away from ROM hacking.
jagolddemium says (12:18 PM):
also, there are always new stories that I can think of, and it'll convince me to hack to put all those stories I had.
thethethethe says (12:19 PM):
Was there any specific reasoning behind the name Time?
jagolddemium says (12:20 PM):
well er... its a bit childish, but yeah, I had this dream where some men were chasing me and suddenly, I looked at my right palm and magically a clock showed up on my palm and everything stopped.
jagolddemium says (12:20 PM):
and from that point, I made my escape, and that's why I was convinced to change my name to Time. but I'll be destinedjagold soon.
thethethethe says (12:21 PM):
After being called destinedjagold for a year or so, does it feel weird when people call you 'Time'?
jagolddemium says (12:22 PM):
indeed it is... -__-
jagolddemium says (12:22 PM):
until now
jagolddemium says (12:22 PM):
or rather even today, it still feels weird...
thethethethe says (12:24 PM):
We can't all be hacking forever, and we'll all eventually stop some day, so how long do you see yourself continuing this?
jagolddemium says (12:25 PM):
I don't know...
jagolddemium says (12:25 PM):
maybe when I can find myself too occupied to important stuff in real life where I can no longer have time to hack...
jagolddemium says (12:25 PM):
'Time' can tell when, though...
thethethethe says (12:26 PM):
Have you ever attempted to hack something other than a Pokemon ROM?
jagolddemium says (12:27 PM):
actually, no. I am a die-hard POKéMON fan.
thethethethe says (12:28 PM):
Is there any hack around that you'd recommend people playing?
jagolddemium says (12:29 PM):
to be honest, I haven't played any hacks lately...
jagolddemium says (12:29 PM):
but I recommend Prism and Genesis, since both hacks are very cool.
thethethethe says (12:30 PM):
I guess we'll wrap this up and would you like to leave the people reading this with any advice?
jagolddemium says (12:30 PM):
hm...
jagolddemium says (12:30 PM):
stay on one project and concentrate your attention on it.
jagolddemium says (12:31 PM):
if you have new ideas you thought of, why not try and combine it with your current project?
jagolddemium says (12:31 PM):
also, learn how to script, even the basics, for scripting is really the most important thing you need in ROM hacking.
jagolddemium says (12:31 PM):
and... I guess that's all...
thethethethe says (12:32 PM):
That's a bit to swallow, but thanks for the interview destinedjagold/Time
jagolddemium says (12:32 PM):
sorry about that, and thanks~
