RP General Discussion

[Koishi]

Okay I really need people to give their feedback on this.

Spoiler:

Have there ever been a point in time where you question, "Wow, all the roleplays in this community is SOOO uptight and serious."

No?

At least I have. A lot of times.

I'm in a creative mood right now, and I wanted to know if you guys would be interested in a Comedy Action RP that takes place in modern day time period. Unlike all the other RPs we have that are all dark and formal with bunch of serious characters who look like they don't know how to have fun, this RP's mood is going to be vibrant and fun. All the characters are going to be fun and polychromatic. There are going to be battles, but those battles are going to be the only thing that are serious.

The purpose of this RP is to make people go back to the old RP days where every post was made for fun without fear of backlashes and criticisms. I, at least, felt like I was being too cautious with my posts recently: asking myself "Does this make sense" or "Would I be ruining someone else's plan by posting this?" Even when writing an app, I ask myself if the image I'm using is appropriate and things like that. That being said, in this RP, you will not have to worry about making a serious character; in fact, I will deny your application if I don't find your character fun.

More details will be given by request, but I need to know the two things:

1) Are you interested?
2) Are there any subgenre you want to add? (Slice-of-life, school/academy, etc)

I would be so up for it if I can use a variation of Koishi. I've been wanting to write the more happy-go-lucky and spontaneously random version of her, but i've really had no good opportunity. That kind of thing sounds perfect for someone like her.

[WriggleRid3r]

@Cuckoo
Yes

@Mima
Yes, if you change up her bio a little bit.

[Cucoo5]

Derpalicious


I shall create Obi Wan Derpnobi for it

[WriggleRid3r]

DERPING. IT INTENSIFIES.

Also I've been talking to some people on Mumble and I decided that Comedy Action isn't the best name of a genre to label this possible RP as. It's more of an lighthearted anime-type action RP; the RP will have raunchy ecchi scenes, lighthearted comedy scenes, badass action scenes, and sometimes depressing or heart-warming scenes.

[Cucoo5]

THIS IS NOT EVEN MY FINAL FORM

oh wait it's going to be that kind?
Hmm
Do I dare go into scrapped idea purgatory and bring out one of my worst characters ever conceived?
Do I dare derp this hard?
...nay. I will not unleash this evil willingly.
...maybe.
...brb, contemplating moral values.

[WriggleRid3r]

Send me info about your char by pm and I can help you make it better. Stronger. Faster. Collect Essence. Make Swarm stronger.

[Cucoo5]

Maki'te, there is a reason why she was banished to the depths of my mind for 11 years. She is the Balrog of my mind. I fear digging too deep to find her.

Her name is Rose and her personality was so bubbly it makes my skin crawl.

[WriggleRid3r]

Like, Kongou-level bubbly?

[Cucoo5]

No, the bad kind of bubbly that's so overdone it makes one cringe everytime she speaks.
She was one of the nails in the coffin for an old Zelda fanfic. Which btw is still finding a way onto my computer despite the fact I swear I deleted it.

...now there was some moment of madness when I tried to salvage her only to turn her into something totally clueless and without form.

[Kristia]

for some reason I think such RP would be the classic formula for a shounen manga, I´m interested though.

As for a character.. I would have to see how things go first to narrow the possible ideas

[S121]

@Wriggle

You already know my stance on it. You can count me in.





@Mima

Need you to post for Takoizu in ATWAG. It's a page or two back.






@everyone

Sorry for not posting for a LONG time. Lately I've been a little too obsessed over this one joint app Wriggle and I have been making for EG. Needless to say, it will be the largest app on the entire forum. From all the technical information I will be typing, I estimate I have close to 60 paragraphs that I will be contributing to the app. Unfortunately, while I've been making a good amount of progress on this app, I have not made much if any in the RPs. I get to typing in the IC's, but my mind slowly drifts to the app and I simply work on it. Sorry. -_-;

[SUSTIC]

I like the idea, and I think Slice-of-life with a twist would be interesting.

[Cucoo5]

Ok after trying to psyche myself into dumpster diving for Rose, I decided to just stick with Obi Wan Derpnobi instead for wriggs RP

On the other hand, I'm trying to decide if maybe I should chunk EG into smaller pieces for the RP adaptations. So for instance: Shards of Starlight would be subdivided into ten smaller parts, starting with Operation Longbow.
Thoughts on that?

[Kilelicus]

I might be down for that. Might ask for a subfolder for that kind of thing.

[Cucoo5]

aye

ok so preview of what I might do for an OOC. I'm not going to make the thread until much later, and after a lot of details are worked out, which will require feedback.

Spoiler:

Eternal Galaxy
Shards of Starlight
Operation Longbow

Violence plagues the Venturian Galaxy once more. The revived Commonwealth rekindles the War of Eternity in a new effort to overthrow the Republic. A group of mercenaries get drawn into the conflict when it reaches their home planet.
