@Prototart if within the first five poses you weren't either doing a helicopter or walking funny to get the boys unstuck from your leg probably were doing it wrong.

Being split into crews isn't necessarily a bad thing. When I played on Serenity and it was active that's how it was. 3-5 ships with crews of half a dozen ore more that ran PRPs internally, but also interacted with each other frequently. It also helped that the game has a good Shuttle system so that you can hop from one side of the verse to the other in moments without having to rely on a relatively slow transit time of a ship.

That said, if you were soley ground based, you typically were SoL unless you could offer a hook/hub of RP yourself

@SerenityMush

I am curious if a full reboot has been discussed at all/is on the table?

The other tweaks and all would be nice, but really the best thing I can think of to actually get interest back in the game would be a reset.

As some others have said you definitely don't want MSB to dictate your game.

An idle-nuke would be a fantastic idea if you didn't want to do a full story reset, it's a start at least.

As a player on the game that still logs in and idles almost daily though my vote is on a full story reset. Move the timeline to a point that everyone familiar with the settings knows like right after the movie, clean up the pirate debacle, the syndicate nonsense, Beau's very existence, all that stuff. Deregister all the ships and everyone makes a new character, throw credits at peoples so they can get started without you having to worry about fiddling with the cost of things, can crew up and apply for a ship, etc.

HSpace is pretty terrible and way way too overly complicated for what a game like Serenity needs.. but as far as the game itself goes as it stands I wouldn't think they're going to be making any changes with something that code heavy. What's there works, even if it does take a dozen commands to do what should be done in three

Hanging on to what is for nostalgia is nice and all but..

Hell yeah RDI

also Wheel of Time AOL RP. The FWTG (forum of wheel of time guilds) had a decent system setup for consistent rules!

Should I answer based on which hand I hold my phone in?

I knew a lady that ran a fate based game that had magic. I bet she'd have some good insight in that sort of thing.

@Ominous said in Dark Crystal game?:

I agree; however, the number of people wanting to play WoD is a large known quality. Some other IP or original setting is an unknown and likely smaller quantity.

I'd argue that the number wanting this is much smaller than people think. there is, however, a large quantity of people willing to play on one.

But look at all the complaints from WoD players about other players not knowing the rules or theme or whatever. My hypothesis is there is a large group of players that frequent WoD games that really just want a blended fantasy game set in modern/near modern time with a large player base and some guidelines.

Not that this would help a Dark Crystal game. I've not seen the new series and only watched the movie for the first time the other day. It was alright, but meh.

@dvoraen said in Games? Do they exist? Where?:

I dunno, I seem to recall people rabidly going after WM logs on Tyme, with a heavy undercurrent of "I will end you" in some of those discussions.

But what if someone didn't pronate their wrist!?
