[rp] Putting this out there again: tentatively taking game recs for someone just trying to get back into RP. Still thinking about the couple folks mentioned a few days ago!

In case no one else has said it: Eudio.

Super easy app, chill AC, more slice-of-life so it's a lot of no-pressure scenarios

No one's mentioned it, no. Is there anything to motivate stuff, if it's slice of life? What I mean is, I need some mix of room to grow and a reason for the characters to do so, if that makes sense.

I'd say the character growth that happens mostly comes from IC interactions. Characters are encouraged to take part in consensual physical interaction, which can lead to a lot of emotional consequences

There have been events, but so far they've been environmental. A bad blizzard came through the city, someone released all the animals from the zoo. Stuff like that.

Eudio sounds so awesome. I would love to play there but the character I want to app is probably not one they'd accept.

Legacy Tales is an umbrella of games. Mostly superhero games, but not entirely.

No AC. Aps are only for new players or OCs, because OCs in a game which dealing in keeping its canon, need to be thought through.

Got an idea? Pitch it. We don't generally do panfandom or jamjar because there's places for that, and those get big. We've been big. We can handle it, but...nah.

I like the players and it works well for people who have lives outside of the computer.

I find the plots interesting too. And as someone who plays a criminal it's nice to have an environment where he's allowed to be one

I am currently in two games I absolutely love, but I don't know if they'd appeal to you, as both are more slice of life based with no overarching plot and based on anime canons.

Tue, Jun 30, 2015 4:11 PM

I've been at Route 29 for over a year now, and it's one of the friendliest, most welcoming, easiest to get into games I've ever been in. The entire premise is your character wakes up and finds themselves

in the world of Pokemon.

and then what? man, that's been around a long time

Luke Skywanker

@original_fine

Tue, Jun 30, 2015 4:14 PM

I'm cool with slice of life, there just needs to be SOME motivation for character growth

Haunted Boobs

@crossthesky

Tue, Jun 30, 2015 4:15 PM

And then you do whatever you want. There are monthly events that tie into something slightly big - mainly figuring out WHY characters are brought here - but I am not involved in any of that.

I have Lust and Jimmy Darling (AHS Freak Show) there, and both of them have ended up with amazing CR and development from the start.

How, um... does the pokemon thing influence stuff?

Haunted Boobs

@crossthesky

Tue, Jun 30, 2015 4:17 PM

Your character starts with a starter Pokemon and an assigned title (Trainer, Breeder, or Rocket), but beyond that, it's up to you how much you actually do with Pokemon.

Like Lust has Pokemon, but she teaches them to cook and help her clean and participate in her act at the circus rather than anything Pokemon-themed.

Jimmy's actually trying to be a proper Pokemon Trainer, but that's just because he has no idea how to function with all this freedom and the ability to have a normal life.

Luke Skywanker

@original_fine

Tue, Jun 30, 2015 4:18 PM

makes sense

Haunted Boobs

@crossthesky

Tue, Jun 30, 2015 4:19 PM

And that's another thing I love about the game. Despite being stepped in anime canon, and having a large anime/JRPG based cast...there is 0 genre divide at all.
