Rundown:

rpanons is an anonymous community for role-play related topics. This place serves as a forum for game discussions, canon discussions, RP solicitations (ATP, game ads, open memes), and advice. The occasional off topic comment is inevitable, but please keep heated social and political topics to their respective communities. Posting them here will only get them frozen. Subsequent threads made to bypass a freeze will then be deleted.

Rules:

Do not post pornographic or shocking images.
Do not share private entries, plurks, chat logs, etc.
Do not use this community as your social/political/hatespeech soapbox.
Do not be redundant. One page does not need three or more threads on one topic/theme. Your unfunny, forced memes also fall under this rule.
Do not treat this comm like your personal therapist. Threads about nonfictional suicide, self injury, rape, and abuse will be deleted. There are better resources out there for you.
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.
Shut up about Tumblr. If it's not a discussion about Tumblr RP it will be deleted.

Hatoful Boyfriend

Root Double -Before Crime * After Days- Xtend Edition

Sci-fi/mystery game where nine people are trapped in a research facility due to a meltdown caused by the facility's nuclear reactor.

The director of the game is the same guy behind the Infinity series (Never7, Ever17, Remember11) with the scenario writing team being the same who wrote the Bravely Default games.

Also on Steam Greenlight:

boy do i! i draw the icon at whatever size (usually 800x800) then paste the entire layer-flattened thing into a 100x100 canvas and ctrl-T until it looks like a good crop. it's just awful when you resize the entire canvas to icon size, unless you've got a crazy good eye for this stuff you will always have a bad crop.

i also usually use a circular gradient quick mask begun at where ever the light source would be, inverse the selection, ctrl-J to duplicate it, and set that new layer on color dodge or color dodge (add) at about 60% opacity or whatever looks best. it helps faces stand out. but don't make it TOO strong or you run the risk of recreating that god-awful trend from a couple years back of having white floating blobs on your icons. (also let me know if that was too photoshop-jargon for you, i'm not sure what level of expertise you're at, and i can simply that if needed)

actually, you could prove it to some degree. if the message is in your sent folder, you could forward it, and it would have the timestamp and everything.

but that requires the message to exist and have been sent.

work meeting for the length of a full work day :( at least it's paid

"manga"... well, it's a comic anyway.

ha, good point, I forgot about sent folders. I guess that's just another mark against the player's list of bullshit excuses that they haven't been able to produce any such evidence.

ugh...work. 12pm to 8pm, which is a little shorter than my usual weekday shifts, at least. assuming I have the energy when I get home I'll spend the evening drawing icons.

"Rp is not more important?"

I don't remember copying this.

"How dare this person speak up about harassment she's getting in her own inbox because it makes me uncomfortable to imagine my precious fandom might be doing something awful."

this was EXACTLY the kind of advice i'd hoped for actually

thanks!!

I'm not really sure what you're asking, anon, but I've rambled anyway so here we go!

I think especially with the factions the plots would basically write themselves. Faction allegiance could be optional but you could potentially have activity bonuses tied to your faction. For example, if you're with Dead Orbit you could have a once-a-month activity bonus tied to Dead Orbit's goals - so, gathering enough materials to pick up and get the hell out of the galaxy. You wrote a thread at least x number of comments long that included your character actively scavenging or mapping out a route out of the galaxy? Here's x number of bonus points to spend on... something. Didn't really think that far ahead.

Or you could have mini faction plots based on the same faction goals. Maybe Dead Orbit goes on a mission to map out deep space and they accidentally find a lost house of dregs hiding out on one of Saturn's moons, so there's a battle and the drama unfolds from there. Or the New Monarchy decides to purge some Hive from Earth because they're getting a little too close to the City, but then they uncover a really mad, really powerful Knight hiding out deep underground and they have to fight their way out.

Basically you could really capitalize the RPG aspect of Destiny. There are plenty of personal goals in place for the guardians in the game, but we don't really talk about them too much because we're too busy shooting aliens or each other over and over again to get the coolest new guns and gear. Take that out and you realize what a good world it is to build your own story into, and how fun it might be for those stories to cross over. There would have to be some heavy modding and adjustments to the parameters of the world but I think it's got a lot of potential.

this is the cutest

Night In The Woods' release date keeps getting pushed back, but I'm hoping we'll see it this year! I haven't minded the wait too much, since it's clear the devs are putting a lot of love into it and the two tie-in chapters they released to keep people interested during the wait were really, really good. But still, I'm so hype to finally get to play the full game, I hope it won't be too much longer.

Tell me what you guys are looking forward to playing!

Uh, I know about players who don't move scenes forward :/. I can never figure out if they are bored with the thread or simply too scared to write something original because I might not like it.

fits - arachne
conflicts - demon

Finish making icons then move onto playing FFXIV.

fits - kelpie
conflicts - wendigo

remember to limit your total traits to ten if you do app

demon

thank you! i'm so used to doing the whole "step back and look at it from far away" thing with traditional art... the exact same principle applies here, i'm just being kind of a doofus

I doubt I have time for a game but if the Soap Opera game (as suggested in the Game Ideas subthread) ever came to reality - and if it accepted OCs - I'd be tempted by it.

1. fits - faerie
conflicts - wendigo

2. fits - vampire
conflicts - nymph
