oWoD - Is there such thing as a good one?
-
@Thenomain I wish I could upvote more honestly.
CrackMUX was /crazy/ fun. It was an insane setting and premise but people just embraced it. I'm not saying there was no drama on CrackMUX or no skeevy types... there definitely were. It was just a lot of /fun/.
Hello! Long time listener, first time caller...

Skeeviness is lessened when you can confidently run your sword through them ICly with few repercussions.

I would enjoy seeing a new 'parody' oWoD game where craziness is the norm.
-
Define 'parody'?

- He who takes offense when not intended is a fool. He who takes offense when intended is a greater fool.

I mean what do you define as a 'parody' game. Something where the Sabbat are playing Baby Football through the streets while Gangrel powerslam their enemies from the sky in flight form?

@bobotron he's saying wut because he didn't say it - you want @Admiral

Isn't this just...an oWoD game?
I mean you've described Tartarus and Dark Metal pretty well.

The important question here is what would you call a flock of Gangrels.

@bobotron A parody game? One where trenchcoats and katana are the norm. Apocalypse babies. Magic toe rings. An incoherent metaplot. Random deaths. Samuel Haight. By parody I mean a game where we play oWoD but don't take it seriously. Not 'deliberate cartoon zaniness' but a bit campy and tongue in cheek, sure.
-
@admiral I keep wanting to do something like that. I just can't even with WoD any more.
-
@admiral Sounds less parody, more lampshading? I'm in favor too. I think I've been subconsciously going for that myself with some of my characters and the other players I've gravitated towards for playing with recently.
-
@admiral You said the dreaded SH name...don't. I feel dirty.
-
@RizBunz It's been enough time. AIDS is funny and so is Sam Haight.

Really? Is this where you want to go?

Wasn't that the message of Rent?

@thenomain I think you missed the joke. Here. Let me explain.
I just compared Sam Haight to AIDS.
