There was a Star Wars RP splintering a while back, and I don't know all the details of the drama, but a LOT of great people disappeared.

And there is my vague comment about it.

No lightsabers for me. I worked the political angle back in the day.

And that's the thing! My Miraluka concept isn't a saber user. But still definitely a FU.

And my pilot char obvs isn't a FU, but more a Solo or Lando type. So much SW universe shenanigans to be had an the Old Republic is the beeeeest era for it all.

I worked my way up the ranks through RP and took advantage of important people being murdered.

Righteous, I'll start getting some code together for it, while I'm sitting around waiting on word from the coders for my Superhero game. It'll be something fun to keep me busy while I wait on news. Most likely I'll either set it right after the Mandalorian wars or right after the end of KOTOR2 either or could be fun.

Sounds great. When does it open?

@mr-johnson said in Star Wars?:

So what you guys are saying... is after I finish working on and get my superhero game either stable or dead from disintrest I should build a Star Wars Saga's KOTOR game? I like this idea.

That is EXACTLY what we are saying.

Did someone mention Kylo Ren's hair?

Asking for a friend.

The Ubisoft weekend deal on Steam, has some amazing deals.

Ghost Recon Wildlands for $20 to start. That is a steal at that price.

Way ahead of you! I almost fell out of my chair when I got the email.

Made me mad I already spent close to $30 on some journal supplies. Can't justify it now.

Sacrifices must be made. Food is overrated?

@faraday Ok but that's not what I was referring to. I meant the type of social rp that ignores a setting element. It's having 'pizza and movie night' in an apocalypse. It's having fifteen outfits and doing a secret santa in a fantasy garbage world where everyone is starving.

The 'problem' (and it is only a problem in some settings) is when people left to their own devices rp things that make no sense because it's easy and familiar, and that is most of the activity available.

You can have social rp by your definition (and you SHOULD) in any setting, doing things that make sense. you can have quiet conversations while trying to maintain/find/stock a shelter. You can take downtime.

So, less of a commentary on social RP and more of a commentary on being thematic. Like when you meet a homeless person who RPs working really hard to be super clean. Whatever, super clean homeless person!

Okay, so let me ask the question:

What is "Social RP"?

Banging. In a coffee house.

I am down with super automated systems for everything from XP spends to text messaging code.

@kanye-qwest My whole life I wanted to play on a Lord of the Rings MU*.

My whole life I have avoided doing so because players will destroy the fond feelings in my heart about the setting.

Elendor was really good around 2002. You're welcome for this non-solution. Find a time machine.
