Alright, so I started an RPG that just came to a whim and I was slightly excited for. It had a great deal of sign-ups, but then at the start of the RPG I had more than three people drop out of it and not inform me until I inquired about it after a week's time.
Being that I am in China and now have a huge amount of time dedicated to nothing, I want to apply my creativity to the forums. I was aiding another RPG outlet this summer, but China has blocked that so I'm unable to access that and let out some of my RPG ambitions. So, I'm hoping that perhaps TPM is ready to try again at the well, sombering attempts at RPGs. (Although I'm very happy to see Heald's RPG seems to have a good kick! Hurray! *hugs Heald).
So, I want to start an RPG and give it the same attention that Naruto did back when we had a full cast. So my question to all of you is, what type of Genre do you want?
Be as specific or broad as you'd like. I'm not afraid of cliches, because they sometimes are what we want to begin with... so feel free. Add anything else you might want in the RPG. Do you want me to create some banner art for it, as in Naruto? Do you want the soundtrack headings (as in Naruto... again, lol). Do you want a rich history? Maps?
What do you want?
That's what I'm inquiring. I was pondering in making an RPG based off of Fate/Stay night, which if you don't know what it is then simply Wiki it. However, then again I'm up for anything.
EDIT: I also was thinking of starting a free-form RPG, as well as our familiar sign-up based one. A free-form RPG is where you don't have sign-ups, you just jump into a situation started by the RPG creator. This is a little less informative, but it might prove to be fun and it is quite successful in other forums. It allows an RPer to jump into a situation and then remove their character as they might be busy, and then leap in again whenever possible. It also provides an air of mystery, given that no one knows much about your character other than what you give them through typing. The plot developement is also dependant upon the characters, which is a nice change. I think this will be fun to try. ^_^
