I think a Zom 100 approach could work a lot better, adding just enough fictional leeway for somewhat unrealistic situations and characters, a bit of silliness and others goals than just to survive.
My ideal zombie RP would be mostly Slice of Life but zombies, so there's the survival elements...
13 or 14 on Roblox (2013 - 2014)
My favorite RP game was "Live your Life as a Wolf or a Fox"
When Roblox added groups I did some group RPs, some warrior cat stuff, and what not. Eventually made my own (still there... So cringy my god xD)
For a while I spent a lot time on a fully functional...
People who want to "fandom" rp with and as 'real people' as characters and not just a faceclaim.
It's very creepy and pretty objectifying all things considered
I used to not, but once I started using Kpop idols for faceclaims instead of random art or pictures of people I didn't really know; I ended up making a bunch of characters that I've reused a bunch because I have a baseline reference for them at all times, not to mention yeah a lot of the RPs...
"Infodumping about characters, worldbuilding, and story that literally no one has access to or would be able to find easily and publicly ever, so I have to tell you myself or you'll never get a chance to know."
"6 Tabs open from wikipedia about gods/mythos/world events/natural environments/the...
Yeah I've never read any RP I've not been involved in myself, however I am very confident IF I were to look and find one that hooks me; yeah I'd be... Well, hooked
I would try something like;
__
Macy wasn't going to deal with this shit, it wasn't her responsibility; having been roped into this whole mess just because Jason freaked out and wouldn't stop whining until she came to fix things for him. "No. You stop right there." The words that came from her...
I would definitely roleplay with a miner, especially if their experience in the profession ties into the RP's world-building or plot in anyway.
Mineshafts and even open pit mines have surprising potential as a setting, and especially if they're familiar with the heavy machinery used in the...
Like 12-13 on Roblox, it was really bad xD, I continued until maybe 2015ish (2-3 yrs) the stuff that wasn't in a Roblox world, some of it still exists and it's the biggest cringe. I couldn't spell at hecking all
Since I've gotten into Kpop xD basically all my FCs are Kpop idols or from Kdramas but for multiple reasons:
1. Finding multiple high-quality pictures or gifs of them is easy, be it google, Twitter, Discord, or other
2. Kpop has a lot of layers of themes (concepts) and if I wanted to find...
Oh all the time, it used to be rare but nowadays it's a lot more common as I've grown as a writer.
Sometimes it's when I write a new variant of a previous character that needed more development and wasn't clicking but I finally have the perfect example of 'who they are'
Sometimes it's just...
For me group RPs are often just chances, but low ones. They fall apart easily because it requires multiple people to consistently be available and on the same page for the story. For every person in the RP, the more chances it will fail. Usually early on, it's also difficult because you gotta...
Reading through all of this I see a lot of various intersections and viewpoints that come from a lot of different angles.
The ethics and morality of using art made by others for use in character creation are very wobbly. To dig into the philosophy of the practice I think an inquiry via the...
Rule of thumb. Any point in history that's in the past be it 5 or 1,000 years is always gonna be worse than right now. Regardless of race or gender, but being a woman or neurodivergent or have a physical differentiation, or literally anything, it's a billion times worse.
Time Travel is not...
Well, I read the entire Wikipedia on the history of Nuclear Weapons Testing. I learned a surprising amount. (And bunkers too)
Also burn injuries. I quickly learned they're not aesthetic or pretty like in anime or movies (should have guessed) and trying to make injuries into aesthetics is horrid...
I'm sad any time my word count isn't at least around 1,000 so having more characters means not only fleshing out the world but giving me more things to do and say each that's not just setting up a scene which I too also love to do
