Guize, Are We Still Doing This?

<-< So no thoughts on a world that works like Everworld does? <-<

[Maeriberii Haan]

That seems to be quite interesting, and allows a lot of flexibility to the RP.

 

But, won't the world became too big for interactions?

Maybe, maybe not.

 

If it was confined down to the size of that map that AIX presented in the previous thread and split sections of it for different territories it'd be doable.

Ultimately, I think the most interactive environment would be a single sci-fi metropolis. Hear me out, it's actually an incredibly huge environment to allow for a whole shitload of stuff to go on, but there's fast transportation to allow for interaction whenever and there's the news so that everyone knows what's going on in other threads as well. If we tried to make the storylines travel throughout the city, there'll be plenty of chances for paths to cross.

 

Now for those of you who love fantasy, steampunk and stuff, there could be a mass cultural movement that, using advanced holography and the other technology available, created entire districts replicating fantasy and steampunk and etc. To make this make sense while making sure there isn't a perfect world, there can be a massive gap between upper and lower class, and these social problems are, of course, the core of cyberpunk.

 

If you still aren't satisfied, it's entirely possible to also have magic. Random ideas that come up are Science vs. Magic and such.

 

 

Trying a different tactic now to squeeze replies out of you close-mouthed people. Speak up or this is what we'll do. And if you do like it, just comment so or something.

Why not fuse them both?

Sci-Fantasy: Kings and Queens with Laser Beams. A high tech world of Dragons and the like, etc.

^Now that is something I'd be more than happy to get into.

 

Although... what kind of quests will we have for this forum-wide RP? Can we create our own or will it be up to the two mods in charge?

The point of the forum-wide is that everyone is creating RPs in a common setting with events from the various RPs able to affect the others. I think it would actually be feasible to have you guys pass everything by us, since I'm on like 24/7. Feel free to object though.

So, I still think, however, rather than what we were doing before, things should be kept in a relatively small area, like within just one country rather than all over the world. Thoughts?


Sci-Fantasy is probably the vaguest of things, so we're going to have to establish a bunch of things here, feel free, in fact please do, jump in with your ideas or suggestions.

[The Warden]

Well, what about that Dyson Sphere idea you guys had in the RP club? There could be 6 individual wings of the Sphere, which could culminate in six different sub-forums. And as such we could use the proposed magi science idea in or to satisfy the tech heads and the magic nuts

Perhaps, for a unknown period of time, magic had vanished from the continent which forced people to find another way (science) of surviving. And just as easily it had vanished it reappeared? 

[bury the year]

I personally like the idea of the Dyson sphere as the setting, although we don't have to have it cordoned off into different thematic areas.

[The Warden]

Oh, not at all. We can just keep things cleaner by using six different sub-forums to contain the posts, and we can just include transport hubs that act as the allowed movement via transport to adjacent wings of the Sphere. And, we can have the uppermost wing be the upper class area, with the two adjacent wings being upper-middle class. The the next two wings will be lower-middle class and then the absolute bottom wing will be lower.

[Admiral_Stalfos19]

Do we have weapons sorted for this RP? If not, we can always go with RWBY weapons with Borderlands elements. Who knows? They might come in handy in case one of the Dyson Sphere sectors happens to be invaded by aliens or something like that :3

Don't have enough people to require sorting like that. The thing about not cordoning off is that we want everyone to be able to interact with everyone and such sorting will hinder that greatly.

That's why I'm asking if anyone would object if we at least tried to keep everything in one country or just a few countries in one smaller area.

I suppose we could have that as the typical weaponry for this RP. Would be fun.

 

A civilization capable of constructing a Dyson Sphere would very unlikely have social problems or any sort of problems at all bar aliens, so I think we should go with the "Ancients constructed the Sphere" idea. Maybe something wiped out the Ancients and everything sort of collapsed and civilization had to be rebuilt, but they aren't anywhere near the God Tier technology that the Ancients had.

 

[hr]

 

I suppose we'll go with the typical medieval feudal system, then?

 

I'm imagining everything to look aesthetically the same as fantasy, but have obvious traces of high tech stuff.

 

[hr]

 

Should we have screens and digital stuff?

[encapturer]

Well, what do we want from each? I would not mind high tech style with fantasy structure. Maybe a scavenger world where the tech was from an old civilization and some peices that were able to be copied is in common use(tvs radios, bikes,etc.) But the cool stuff is still being excavated, and stuff like laser guns are family heirlooms and the like.

[bury the year]

I like the ideas of one smaller area (e.g. one country instead of a full planet) and the use of RWBY!style weapons to encourage creativity. Just my thoughts. I'll start writing stuff up once we get more stuff ironed out.

[encapturer]

RWBY!style weapons

I keep seeing this thrown around, but I don't know what these are and how they promote creativity. Could someone explain, please? Thanks.

Basically they are melee weapons combined with a firearm.

[Aix]

Okay, we really need more stuff. Maybe an overarching plot

 

 

We can do sort of the towers plot still, with a modification to it, we can say certain areas are glitching out and we have to reach the control panel tower for that area of the Dyson Sphere. Maybe the area we are in is also in trouble or maybe the Dyson Sphere is also falling apart. I dunno.

 

 

As for the kingdom, I think it'd be more exciting if there were Houses that were vying for power.

[D.A._Sakuyamon]

Umm, not to sound butt hurt or anything. But you ask to bring in idea's but for the most part you haven't even really discussed any of the idea's I'v brought to the table. :\

[Maeriberii Haan]

Everything could honestly start with your average fantasy quest, but then it leads to more and more things, until the grand finale. So, maybe some monster slaying, cult abolishing, demon exorcising, princess saving, bear asses hoarding quests in the beginning, but that would lead the characters to realize something was off with the big picture of things, and start finding out more about it.

Because Sci-Fantasy has proven to be the most popular idea.

It has perhaps but with the exception of a single post. No one even gave my Everworld idea the light of day. I'm sure you can understand the frustration that can have. :(

[Maeriberii Haan]

I think I did comment on it, on how would it be kind of inconvenient due to how large the setting could be, which you answered.

I suppose we could incorporate it with the idea that the Dyson Sphere is divided into areas each governed by a sentient technomagical AI.

[Maeriberii Haan]

Then, how big would the used setting be? As I've iirc noted back then, Dyson Sphere is huuge, and using all of it for the setting is kind of unrealistic. At least back then we have the isolation thing going on, but with the sectors idea, pretty much implies we'll make the entirety of the sphere to be fair game for the RP.
