I love Dark Cloud.
1) Maybe just nice, safe, time restricted hugs.
2) Now this is a good edit! Very funny and I loved how the creator even designed the layout to be similar to the first area in Pony Revolution.
However, considering the whole thing was created as commentary against the third game, I’ll still never understand Deus Ex fans. I liked all three games.
3) It was a polished game. I remember it being very well balanced and the town design mechanic was interesting. You know, where you talk to the ponies to find out what they want and adjust the town’s layout so that everypony is happy? I thought that was really cool!
Only problem was the game was too long for what it was and the last character was garbage. By the time I unlocked him, tried him out, and his weapon broke almost immediately, I just didn’t care anymore.
