Reu loved his projects, it would be wrong to pick them up and crap them up, as wrong as taking his loved creations off the net
..we could however create a reproduction project... Project Reu, where we as a community would work together towards the goal of creating something to honour him.

I can understand where you are coming from Iced but its a sort of mixed feeling I'm getting about this "we should finish what Reu started" issue we have here.

I am more towards not touching his works but still with the images, completed works (music and Mugen) and all of these tribute vids for him, we payed our respects towards the man and though out his available works, his legacy will live on regardless.

That should be enough there.
We all witnessed what he was capable of and it will never be forgotten.

You got me wrong.
I didnt said, finish this project of his.
I said, create a project as a community to give to him.
This one should remain as was.

@Iced, My mistake then, but still, what I said reflects towards what others said earlier.

However, with Reu gone, there won't be any progress with this project. We will respect that this is Reuben's work, and that with his death, it will be untouched.


Well, Shadow never said he was going to give the files to anyone so i see no point in arguing about what to do with something that is never going to be released.  :)

And yes, it's a shame the project will remain unfinished, but no one would make it as well as Reu or the way he wanted it, it's better to the project to remain unfinished.
Welcome to Alu's world !! :D

Why? because they're talking about him or his "secret" projects?

I think Iced made very clear the community should join to make a project in his honor, not Project 2.

It's pretty fucking clear no-one can ever finish his works as ... well, given that there are rippable sprites and still characters aren't made, why would anyone bother copying Reu's desing and model 7000 sprites?

It's unrealistic, nothing to be alarmed about, and over-reactive. Take a chill pill nuggas

Walt, we can't really argue too much about this kind of stuff because everyone reacts different to events like this. Personally, I consider some questions raised in this thread a bit inappropriate given the short time since his death... but that's my very humble opinion.

I would say, at least let the waters calm down more before thinking about tributes and stuff like that. Given the state of shock of many members because of the news some acts could be taken in a circumspect way (like the tribute project being taken as marketing and so on).

Yeah, I know is over-reactive, but it could happen.

It would have been best to not mention these. Not in this community. Nobody could finish it like he wanted it done unless he'd left instructions for such for someone else. And last I checked that didn't happen.

This is beyond the point of fucking absurd. People cashing in on his death pimping their sites or OMG RARE CHARS with his name as an excuse, the combo vid crap, it's all fucking crap. It doesn't matter in the end, it's not long term, it's just a bunch of motherfucking bullshit! This isn't how you tribute or remember someone. He wasn't just some mugen joe and only that for fuck's sake.

It was obvious the idea would be brought up, and the answer to it is equally obvious.

This topic is not disrespectful, of course after a person's death you look at what he was working on and think "too bad it's never finished". But in case you didn't notice, this kind of thing never got Reu even remotely upset, people asking about how his characters went always got a friendly, empty reply, nothing more than a verbal smile.

Oh what drama.

You people should stop defining "respectful" for others.

I'm fine with people mentioning info we already know (Project 2 as an example) but Panzermanathod saying "Oh, I'll upload something that he told me to keep secret" is wrong.

Who can make characters like Reu's works? I'm not sure...

Also, I'm very sad because "project 2" will be not finished, forever.  :'(

Where? what did I miss?

Combo videos? what does anyone gain/earn/win from this? I would make one if I knew how to. I respected the guy, I'm not making a documentary on his life, since I didn't know him, or have any more pictures of him; his Mugen creations and music are all we had in common with him... mashing them up together doesn't seem disrespectful or farfetched.

The topic isn't disrespectful. I don't think the questions are either.

The arguing is however.

No one can finish the new project, the sprites were never even finished.
Even if they were I think all the material necessary to create the character should remain offline, which as far as I know... it is.

Please stop arguing in this thread. Feel free to discuss what Reu accomplished, and what could have been.

*on topic

Sounds like Reu was once again going to outdo himself. I would have loved to try out P2 and Samus, I am sure they would have been more of a breakthrough than his other works.

For the people who either forgot or never knew, Reu's P2 was a publicly announced work in progress.  He posted progress and ideas to brainstorm maybe a year ago.
