Ultimately my reason for making this thread is because I am tired of trying to host story ideas that either die off early or cause loss of motivation in myself or players. I'm looking for advice as to what can keep an audience interested. So far all the points I have seen are fabulous and...

You have strong points here and I can relate to all of them. Good characters are some of the reasons why I like to (try) host roleplays. Sure, I have my characters, but seeing the creativity of other people sparks inspiration. Skill level is a touchy thing for me. I don't want to value someone...

I absolutely enjoyed that, theres so much to say and I can't hardly react to it all. Overall, I am very exciting that you were willing to share that, it's invaluable advice and thought processes.

Your way of world building is not too dissimilar from my own. 1. I start off with the general idea of the plot I am working on and I'll establish the initial setting. For example, I have a story about a mercenary captain who is looking to escape an old world ravaged by pollution and constant...

XD that just goes to show differences in preferred playstyles. I do agree that Worldbuilding is a huge commitment for what may be very little return. However, I've always been a daydreamer, imagining my life in different worlds and scenarios. I love the RPG genre of games where I can be...

Interesting, when you say World Building in this scenario, I assume you mean actually building the world with the characters without it being written prior to the scene being established? Essentially discovering what's cool about the world WHILE it's happening in the Roleplay? Or do I have that...

I think that's because we are excited about the 'dark side' of things, since we experience a near utopia of sorts, or because we are curious to see how dark it's become and why it's dark and gritty. A story I've been fleshing out for a while is that of a Mercenary company looking to move to a...

Thanks for your reply! I appreciate it! When I see an idea that makes me excited, usually it's something involving group stuff. My preferred style of RP is groups facing challenges together, with their strengths covering eachother's weaknesses. I've never really done a successful 1x1 rp, so I...

So, I've been making attempts and roleplays for years at this point. Looking to join some, making my own, it's been an exciting journey, albeit a little stagnant. When I join roleplays, sometimes I'm unsure as how to roleplay. I've got no experience with any tabletop games and therefore I...

That makes complete sense how certain factors go against me as regards to timing myself when the RP interest gets released. Even as to how I pitch ideas and what is in the pitch. My voiced interest check was 16 minutes long, people could read the writing exponentially faster. I also threw in...

Yeah, I was simply trying to delete myself but it wouldn't let me. Canceled Theres the link to the thingie thing. My apologies, it really embarrasses me that I would ever need to ask something like this of you guys. Perhaps I simply got overconfident that I could attract players.

Hello everyone. Recently I tried to form a 2nd reboot of my old story Ris'Saliance Aior which in the past showed decent success in gaining the interest of players. This time around, third time was not the charm even as I revised my story, added fresh content, coded the content (Simply but...

Whenever I have seen romances, be in in a story/novel, a TV show, an Anime (I know its a show but its different for me!), or even a graphic novel I will agree that I do find many shallow or blah relationships. There was one story that I found interesting though. However if I were to say it, I...

It really depends on what I would be writing. If I was a player playing my next action, 3 or 4 paragraphs with 5 sentences each would do nicely for an action scene (One where my character is either fighting or doing something.), 1 to 3 paragraphs 5 sentences each if Im a player playing a relaxed...

I think, the thing I find intimidating is when one of my characters has an encounter with a character that has an intensely detailed backstory and lore that sort of... puts them above all other creatures. There is one experience where I had in my RP someone had made a super detailed custom...

Well... There was one idea I adored that a friend of mine had made, it was a futuristic setting that I absolutely adored yet she abandoned it in favor of something else. While I'd love to claim it and revive it it was her idea and I will respect that boundary. In terms of Original Role plays...

I find that I make an OC based on the RP, but I do have one character that's my go to when it's a mysterious guy you need.

I can easily voice all my MALE characters, but I can't get high (or girly) for a female character. We should totally do this! (Although I'm lacking in proper recording stuff, I don't have a proper Mic. Hell I sang in NYC, I can sing stuff if you need! (If you want foreign stuff sang, you...

Yay!

I'm certainly no professional but I have tried to run RPs before. My words of advice is you can be as crazy as you want with the story but keep it simple stupid when it comes to actual roleplay. Unless you have experience with hosting RPs starting with Simple or Casual would work best rather...
