    Viewpoint Is there an audience for Art Roleplay groups (ARPs) on RPNation?

    I came across something similar to "art rp" on sites like deviant art. It is basically rp, but in comic form. But I think they call it competitive storytelling or something, I really don't remember. There is a voting element to it. I saw people doing battle royal-esque 'art RP' in which they...

    Experiences Does writing calm you or stress you out?

    Hm, I guess no one dares to claim to be truly free from stress, it's something intrinsic. If we can't escape it, having a healthy relationship with stress, in general, could really help you out and gives you 'the push'. But then again, each person tolerates and responds to stress differently...

    Experiences Does writing calm you or stress you out?

    😂 I suppose you must feel ' something' such that it compels you to work on a creative project or deters you from working on it? It is more about how the hobby makes you feel, do you derive more joy, relaxation, and satisfaction from it, or does it somehow stress you out (which the hobby is not...

    Experiences Does writing calm you or stress you out?

    Hm, I think in the end you do have some autonomy in deciding how the writing process feels to you. Most of the time the stress is more self-induced, especially when it is only a hobby. Allowing myself to spend longer to produce something will make things feel better, I can imagine if I really...

    Experiences Does writing calm you or stress you out?

    Ya. The commitment...it is one of the scary things to me as well, even if they don't specifically require you to be active, I'll just feel obligated to post as regularly as possible. It feels bad for me to just leave things hanging there.

    Experiences Does writing calm you or stress you out?

    The mental state you are describing sounds something like the 'state of flow'. It takes effort and focus, but in a healthy and optimally productive way. It is actually a mental state that I strive to have, but a prerequisite of entering a state of flow is that the difficulty of the task has to...

    Experiences Does writing calm you or stress you out?

    I would say that you are completely right. I am not very comfortable with the language (or heck, even communicating in general), and it holds me back immensely, I struggle with grammar, so the process of proofreading is especially agonizing for me.

    Experiences Does writing calm you or stress you out?

    I see... For my case, I have ideas that I wish to try, but I have to hold myself back, cuz I feel like I have to choose between real life obligations and my creative projects. I never really force myself to a point that I'll hate the hobby, I force myself for the exact opposite reason, cuz I...

    Experiences Does writing calm you or stress you out?

    I got a similar reply from someone as well, almost word for word when I told them how I felt like I had to rush to finish my character sheet. They are the one who pointed out how I was being very anxious when I tried to join their rp, and that was when I noticed how I have this anxiety, and how...

    Experiences Does writing calm you or stress you out?

    Hello! I am quite interested to know if there are any people who are busy with work/studies that are anxious about involving themselves in any mini creative projects as well! It has been my struggle for a while, and I noticed there is this anxiety surrounding my involvement in RPs again, being a...

    Advice/Help How do people with anxiety or introversion find their RP community?

    I am incredibly grateful to have met someone very friendly that is willing to vibe with me, even back then when I didn't really know what I was doing.

    Experiences What are some RP ideas you've always wanted to try?

    Escape room type RP had been on my mind for quite awhile! I feel like they could be fun, you can add quite many flavors to it too (Infinity train, Angel of Death, Zero Escape, Backrooms...).

    Idea Dead concepts

    I love Pokemon RPs, I had the fondest memories with all of them, even though there are not that many I took part in. Honestly, some of the Pokemon RPs that pop up once in a while recently sound very interesting to me as well, if I have the time I will definitely hop in for the ride. I tried to...

    The night came to life when the neon light illuminated the city, painting a thin layer of vivid, glowing aura over the lively city while greeneries around the neon city mend the glorious beauty of man-made structures and the surpassing charm of nature together seamlessly. Among the...

    Ello! Ere is Just a place to share some of your dead RP ideas or concepts. Perhaps you even have some of the old interest check posts to share? I was digging through some of my old stuff (around 5 years old?) and found a few RP interest check posts I made. Back then I had a decently clear...

    Viewpoint If not zombies then what? What do you care to see in apocalyptic roleplays?

    I like the 'world gone mad' type of apocalypse. As in people just turn terrorists cuz of alien mind control or something. For me it's always about what kind of unique drama you get from the apocalypse you have in mind, the setting is just a setting.

    Advice/Help How to start ?

    I don't have anything insightful to add and I just wanna say I relate to this problem as well. I think as @Onmyoji puts it, it just comes down to consuming more relevant media or fiction in the genre we want to explore. I think a positive way to look at it is that it will be quite a fun little...

    Idea Post-Mortem Investigatory RP

    I was introduced to a system that allows the players to collectively build a 'truth' or a story as they go from an interest check. It is called 'Ocean'. I find the system to be super interesting but can't help to doubt how it will actually work out. Part of what makes mysteries satisfying for...
