Do not be redundant. One page does not need three or more threads on one topic/theme.
Do not treat this comm like your personal Plurk or Twitter. Off-topic happens, but it should be open for discussion and not just a play-by-play of your life. No one cares.

What would you want to see in a jamjar game based around a superhero-type premise?

Re: Superhero Games

(Anonymous) 2013-12-06 09:21 pm (UTC)(link)
I wouldn't mind seeing one sort of based on Sky High.

anon i love you

am i the only one who wants like a rival villain high that they can play sports against because not everyone is going to want to app heroic characters
there could be "henchmen" instead of "sidekicks"

I would be so down for this.

'Hero Support' and 'Un-paid Minions'

ngl this sounds like it could be the best game ever

there could be inter-school proms, secret trysts, prank wars, faculty in-fighting...and the superhero premise would make it actually fun to play out classes and assignments instead of handwaving it all.

(although the sidekick bit should probably be axed or reworked somehow because you know everybody's gonna be a shit and insist that their character is so special and precious that they deserve to be a full-fledged hero/villain.)

but if it fits in with the sky high idea, it's not like people in sidekick land are powerless. they just have 'less than heroic' powers.

i'd actually like it if the mods threw people into where they felt they belonged based on character type (hero vs villain) and then class type based on their powers (hero vs sidekick/villain vs minion)

make a powers list so that people had to pick from a set group type of powers (speed/strength/flight/laser eyes/lactokinesis) and they get sorted based on the abilities available in game and not the abilities they might canonly have which would make most people heroes/villains.

i wouldn't even know where to begin looking for a mod for this, but as the suggester, i would join this game so damn fast.

i think i'll try the game suggestion thread pretty much as soon as i've written up something coherent about the setting and potential game mechanics. :D and then we can hope that we get a few bites!

actually this sounds more awesome

hey, is anyone still here? Can I suggest a setting with an overwhelming NPC villainous presence? Maybe find some way to facilitate teaming up with other heroes? Last superhero game I joined was C&C, which was so inundated with superheroes in an almost completely mundane New York setting that there was precisely nothing to do except twice a year when the modplot happened and actual supervillainy was afoot. Literally had my character become a secretary because there was no point in superheroics.

I'd be down for a game like that.
