@jennkryst said in Interest Check: Exalted 3rd ed Mu:

This is a lot of the reason I suggested 'just do all of creation'. Have the Blessed Isle for those who want to do Dragonblooded politics. Let the Celestials run around the threshold doing sandbox adventures... yes, with some plot, but also spread out so your Abyssals aren't pushed right up next to the Solars, and now we're in a pvp scenario.
It's how City of Hope actually manages to have semi-working antag players. By keeping them VERY SEPARATE from the white hats, who will all try to murder them instantly.
THEN AGAIN, I tend to make high conviction/low compassion characters, so even my 'non-antag' exalts are pretty damn antag when you look at them.

I would disagree because 'People have a kingdom over here and have made 2300 posts about its events in the last month' mean a lot less to me than 'the city/region/country I live in had zero posts about its events in the last month'.

@cobaltasaurus said in Why are there so many MUs set in Maine?:

Oh, have we moved on from bitching about there being too many PNW games?

@serenity

Oh, beauty. I thought we lost the only RIFTS game I've seen for a long time.

Not enough people got FATE? I dig it, and good luck in the recode, let me know if you need any help. I loved the feel of the game you had setup.

@Kumakun

Whoo, yeah, that'd be a right pain in the keister. Each book and splat book looks to contradict the other, so you'd basically have to pick one of the cores and force everything else to conform. For example, depending on your core and splat, 'partial borg' could either mean only one hand altered or everything but a leg.

THANK YOU

It has been driving me insane and I knew it had to be something I'd done since it wasn't happening to anyone else.

Not on Earth yet but plan to get there by the end of this year. Small but we have enough activity. The combat system is the one Transformers 2005 used until it closed a couple of years ago I think it was.

Thanks for all the replies, guy! I like all types of horror (my old post was just an example! Doesn't have to all be WoD set.)

Supernatural, psychological - I'm pretty keen for a number of things. So far, so good, I'll have to see what I can get a feel for. Keep'em coming! If there are more that come to mind that is.

Yup. Works much better now.

@Jennkryst chuckles Cute. Yeah I just...I loved a few people I met there. I really did. Some of the rp there was amazing and I'm thankful to the players for it. I'm just a bit too out of touch with the setting I think.

That and sometimes things would just go left turn WAY too fast without any reason what so ever.

Garou Sphere made me so sad I wanted to cry. I can't touch Sabbat anymore, either. Again - sadness.

At least you're enjoying it!!! That's great to hear.

@Roz - Thank you!

I messed something up with the App files and need to get it scrubbed and reinstalled properly... will have to come back to this tomorrow. Appreciate the assistance!

ETA: And it worked! Thank you again!

@Derp

I wish I did. Sadly, all of my pictures have been lost over the years. :(

This is the desc of it from frenchquarter.com. It'll at least give you something to start with for a desc to translate it into for your purposes:

Every quarter-hour, the thin peal of bells at St. Louis Cathedral calls saints and sinners, mostly the latter. They clang out a slightly off-key sound, as if they well know the offbeat rhythms of the neighborhood below them. The pulse of a circus atmosphere around the church pounds from hour to hour, as if to compete with the timbre of the sounds from the tower. The church stands sentinel, nether judging nor joining.

Inside, the aroma of ancient brick masonry greets the visitor. One thinks at once of an old French monastery, although stone is nowhere. The darkened entry gives way to a bright interior with painted surfaces everywhere. The eye is drawn to the great high Rococo altar, where gilded and fluted columns of the Corinthian order support a busy entablature. Two rows of wooden columns divide the church into nave and side aisles, with a mute upper gallery where, one imagines, crowds overflowed before Vatican II put an end to crowded churches.

Along the walls, St. Louis lives through stages in multicolored shards of artist’s glass and lead. Here he receives a blessing from St Blanche, his mother; there he marries. He builds a chapel, receives the crown of France, and departs for his first crusade across a wooden plank. Further on he visits a leper with lesions of hollow glass, and in the great lunette over the high altar Louis announces the Seventh Crusade. Overhead, St. Peter receives his shepherd’s staff from the Savior, surrounded by apostles, as the Father oversees the mission.

@Packrat

Thank you for the suggestions! I may still try to get it to work on Windows, but I think I've been convinced to attempt Linux.

@Derp Have spotted her a few times poking things with sticks at our place. She's awesome.

@Sarah said in Good MU with sense of progression:

Sorry guys, it was a hell of a month. I left from Sindome actually, mostly because as I said they discourage any and all ooc communication and so I was completely on my own for figuring out basic survival mechanics.

Anyways aside from a sense of progression?/i guess medieval? Lord and Ladies games where I can /do/ things, etc.

So most MUSHes are really designed for a tabletop RPG writ large feel, that's very character relationship driven with GMs often telling stories or maintaining plot, but they generally don't have the kinds of game mechanics you'd see on a Sindome or HellMOO or Armageddon that has a player versus environment feel, that could give you the kind of sensation of progression.

I'm adding some of that to my game over time for what you might be thinking of, but it's still really downplayed, because games that are MUD-MUSH type hybrids are deciding where their focus is on creating an environment that can act as RP prompts for players and let them develop things on their own, versus a collaborative storytelling experience where the focus is really on letting those players drive stories without an environment possibly getting in the way. I like to try to combine the two and want to keep adding in more environmental features on Arx, but they are still noticeably different styles of RP.

Atlantis 0.9.9.6 rc7 is up, for anyone not on the Discord! The in-app updater is working now tho, so instead of downloading you can also just select Atlantis -> Check For Updates from the menu.

There is also now a bug tracker!
