(bc after noctium i went to jigokucho (lmfao) with kamui, and after That was the sherlock holmes brainworms so i was mainly playing yujin or cyrus a lot)
2. surprise youre going to see how this impulse app goes in a lil while HAHA
i should probably replay travis strikes again bc it's been a hot second but ........ i just........... wanna play more katamari...................
ALSO insane and not real: tsa came out in january of 2019 which means that it's going to be 7 years old in a couple months
I mean... I haven't been in a game since then.
i feel like i usually only take a break between 6 months to a year if im not actively rping so that feels like a LONG while to me
I haven't been in a game since the navy, basically...
am i getting picky or just worse at my characters?
I fear it's probably a combination of picky and old
With a side of "watching the same drama happen over and over for roughly two decades give or take"
7 years since tsa is insane wtf
I'm thrown at realizing that 2021 is now a long time ago
I stopped RPing at the end of 2024 and tried to get back into it a few months after and it just.. wasn't fun anymore. it actually wasn't much fun all last year either.
I think part of it is we're all adults and have jobs so we can't do shit 24/7 and then a lot of people freak out if they don't respond in 3 days and drop the whole thing and it becomes this while interpersonal bullshit.
which I deff don't remember happening years ago when I started.
but also could just be that I'm in my 40s and crotchety now.
Nah, that was always an issue in some circles, but it's become more apparent as time constraints have increased and DWRP has shrunk in size.
I'm definitely feeling my age RP-wise-- I'm noticing a lot more performance issues than when I first started
Yeah it really started to feel more like a chore than a hobby.
I apped travis to etraya because, in line with the conversations we are having in here, there was that bonus app round and it's no AC HAHAHA
cantito: I KNOW WE WAITED SO LONG AND ITS BEEN THAT LONG SINCE?????
Goreo: right, what do you mean 2021 is 4 years ago
I need to see the stupidity of Travis with the Sparda family
I'm laughing, will he remember San Francisco or no
filledwithstraw JulyFlame: yeah I think at this point a lot of people are like Hit Da Bricks about rp when it stops being fun/people cross lines like that lol. i like the hobby but finding a middle ground of being committed around my job and other hobbies and life now feels harder
which is why i waited so long after laby I was like. wow I have so much time to do other shit that isn't worrying about my late tags or trying to write my tags
Yeaaah. And this format takes up so much time, too!
It's weird for me bc I think I am both more and less on the ball wrt rp sometimes it really depends HAHA
theggnator: NEW KATAMARI IS REALLY GOOD I CANT STOP PLAYING
he will absolutely harass the Spardas it's a contractual obligation
whimsea: if the mods let me he totally will HAHAHA
Nero thinks he's legitimately cool and his dad and uncle like "NOOOOOOO"
I'm not sure if he's allowed since that tdm was way far back
theggnator: HEY NERO IM A GREAT ROLE MODEL DO YOU WANNA WATCH KAMEN RIDER
like I still like RP, but game for me are like... for me it's like throwing a bottle in a sea of other bottles. and your bottle is plainer than the rest.
Steve Rogers did this just happened app round that isn't the current mini app round, but yeah I'm not sure in general
pashchan: man I feel this, like I'm confident in my ability to like. write lol. but the mechanics of rp are different, you need to consider how you're plotting how your character fits into the overall cast's vibe etc etc. gotta make a really cool bottle but sometimes games aren't the right beach
theggnator: Nero's taste in media is going to get so fucking funny remember Jen's Travis showing Kamui Wayne's World.
I WISH RP VIAGRA EXISTED MAN, the spirit is willing but the brain takes a while to get going OTL
also: most RP games are not made for people whose tag quality waxes and wanes like the moon.
honestly i feel they should all be built for that
sometimes we're meaty. sometimes we're short and quippy. sometimes we just get through a thread to establish something. sometimes it's magic!
i hope etraya goes well for you!! i think that was one of the games i wanted to look at, so lemme know if it's cool there! but also four games came out in the last two weeks (katamari included!!) that i wanted to play so i feel u
DatAss: I'll keep you posted 👀
it's no AC which I'm gonna be real drove half the impulse lol the other was "friends is there"
PERFECT Lois just pointing to him, to her eyes, remember she's the AWARD WINNING JOURNALIST not just Superman's girlfriend thanks
HE DOESNT READ COMICS OKAY
PLEASE SAY THAT because it's inherently funnier
man with encyclopedic knowledge of gundam, pro-wrestling, and kamen rider forced to acknowledge anything about western superheroes
also related: his brother's heel turn involved him watching mcu thor
this is travis "final fantasy 7 characters look fucking stupid" touchdown, i could believe it
the fact that that's canon kills me
it's also legit part one of the most unsettling and legitmately fucking crazy parts of 3.
suda51: the mcu, not even once.
lmfao what a wild heel turn inspiration
'i saw a movie about god and it flowed through me like electricity' and then he talks about how he thinks travis is loki making so many problems for him
mfh xgbfzngx does he miss how thor loves loki and also loki is just a special kind of dumbass
THE POINT FLEW RIGHT OVER HIS HEAD
