All of it.
It's good for putting down notes and organizing, but it kills the mystique of many of the characters. I prefer to introduce them the old fashioned way.
I have ADHD and in my experience, this can be a symptom, but its also fairly normal in the world of roleplaying. People ghost or lose interest all the time for every reason under the sun. There's really no telling.
For me, I can hyperfocus on a rp (or other hobby) to the exclusion of most...
Objectively none, imo.
Lazy-lit falls in that category of could drop a thousand word plus bomb or a couple hundred depending on what they feel like doing at that time. I personally don't ascribe it to 'Casual' or 'Semi-lit' because the way those terms have been used historically in the rp...
I forgot this earlier in my pet peeves but when you're in a group RP and the GM has more than two active interest checks out for other group rps at once. When I see that, I pretty much immediately lower my expectations that the RP at hand will ever be finished. I understand that some people can...
Agreed. Its fun in theory just like horoscopes, but its far too rigid and tries to categorize and oversimplify something that is constantly shifting and, in reality, very complex. I will say, as a writer though, it useful as a baseline for developing characters if you're stuck for ideas.
Stressed. Im a type-A, perfectionist personality with severe ADHD. In addition, I think predominantly in pictures than words. As a result, I can get stuck for hours in wordsmithing a single sentence to describe what Im picturing in my head, which almost never delivers my scenes ( at least in my...
Metric tons of dialogue.
I love dialogue. It's cool and fun to write, but sometimes, particularly in 1x1 RPs, characters go on rambling tangents that other characters would probably realistically interrupt long before they get going.
Bonus points if at the end of said dialogue that their...
Dragon's Dogma is niche?
I thought it was super popular just a few years ago.
I'mma say Berserk, Metro series, the Belgariad by David Eddings, Castlevania (both show and games), Kenshi, and something like the Stalker series.
PS: Add The Black Company by Glenn Cook.
AJ listened to the Captain's tale in silence, his gaze fixated on the big F4-G Phantom as it lined up on the runway. The Viper wasn't very far behind. Now that it had drawn closer, he could make out the familiar contour of the M6-1A1 20 MM Vulcan cannon and AIM-9 sidewinder missiles tucked...
"Depends. You're still a rookie, they might let you go up for qualifiers under heavy supervision, despite the commander's judgment."
Fat chance of that, AJ thought bitterly, taking a drag of his cigarette.
In the airbase, the commander's word was law. Gospel truth. He'd have had a better...
“'Sometimes. Mom doesn't want me smoking around my brother, mostly-flight leads at Redmill generally discouraged it as well.”
AJ shrugged. “Can’t say that surprises me. Smoke’s hell on a pilot’s body, you know. Just the same” – he blew out a long puff, the smoldering embers of his cigarette...
MISSION ACCOMPLISHED

<< Roger, roger. Thank god that’s over, Raven Squadron; If you guys weren't here, then, well… who knows what would’ve happened. Oh, and don’t worry about the damaged ships, the Needletail is giving us updates and they have enough power to return to port without...
WHIPLASH
<< We take out the rest; either that, or something else pops up. Just keep hittin' and runnin' until then, rookie. >>
WILDCAT
<<Copy.>>
AJ needed no further prompting than that. His F-16 twisted into a pair of aileron rolls then gunned forward aggressively towards the Hornet that had...
