July EMP Meme

ENABLEMEPLZ

meme goes up on the last Saturday of every month

FOR GAME ADS:

Put an ad up with the characters / crew / pairings / fetish you want for your game under the correct game header. This meme is primarily going to be focused on DWRP games but IJ and LJ games are allowed.

PLEASE NOTE A RULE CHANGE HERE. ABSOLUTELY NO obnoxious coding (no font size > size 4 or 3 "big" tags, no oversized banners (they must be 250px in height or less), no blinking text, no obnoxious table html that doesn't collapse easily, no sparklies, no large pictures). Use all the colors you like, but please remember 3 "big" tags is the limit and that's only for headers or title text rather than for all the text in an ad.

FOR GAME QUESTIONS:

RPers interested in a game can create a header for the game and ask questions about that game that aren't easy to find on faqs, such as the actual pace vs. what's listed/what kind of plots are run/if the game leans more towards plotty or slice of life/if a game leans more towards network or logs, etc. Both anon questions and anon answers are welcome in this section just like in the rest of the meme.

This thread is not for speaking about wank or drama in a game. There are anoncomms that exist for that. This thread is specifically for general questions about a game that rpers want to get perspective on from players already in the game. Answers can be slightly negative (such as saying app response is slow or that the plots are repetitive or similar things) but this should at least be worded politely. Unnecessary vitriol, any mention of personal drama or wank, or mod teams/individual mods/players being singled out, will be screened and/or deleted.

FOR CHARACTER ADS:

Put up an ad about the characters you are offering. For PSL/1-on-1 ads, there is a separate subthread but for character ads for games, post directly to the meme post. Others will comment to you with the games/casts they want you to join.

There is a "Find a Castmate" section, where you can talk about a cast you play in at a game, and try to lure people to join it. Not all games post to the meme or have a "wanted" section, so players that want to tempt people to their cast on their own can use this section for it. Please format this the same as the PSL/1-on-1 section, where you post the canons in your subject. For the actual text of the ad you must use the "Find a Castmate" form provided at the bottom of this post so that these ads don't get huge. When listing who's currently in a cast, please do this in sentence form (with commas) rather than in list form.

ABSOLUTELY NO obnoxious coding, with the same rules as the Game Ads Section above.

If you're recommending a game to someone, try to match your suggestion to their needs. It's okay if part of your game rec is copy-pasted (such as what the game's about), but at least some part of the rec must be personalized to their ad. Try not to recommend the same game to every single ad, either. Ad spam that isn't individualized in some way will also be screened.

IN GENERAL:

Don't be a dick. This isn't one of the anoncomms, so any snide comments or unnecessary commentary on the RP plans of others will be screened.

MOD CONTACT:

If there's trouble, tell me HERE, please!

Hello there~

[community profile] melodiesofeternity is a panfandom Final Fantasy-based RP. You don't actually need to know anything about the FF games to get into it, though. Characters drop in with no powers and have to take jobs (Black Mage, Summoner, etc.). The AC and participation in events lends to EXP for your job, so your character gets stronger as the game progresses. (So no force powers right off the bat but Illusionist, Warlock, Black Mage, Dark Knight, and other jobs will give the same effects.)

It's plot-heavy with some SoL elements. I consider the game medium-paced, but you can be as slow or fast as you want. Super backtag friendly. AC is 10-20 comments or 1 post a month. Castmates include Finn here along with Biggs and Wedge as NPCs.

Here's a list of jobs that can be taken in lieu of powers. And here's the world map to show how vast this place is, which I love. And now's a good time for explorer lovers to join because one of the nations are opening their borders for the first time this month. Fun stuff.

The TDM and Reserves are open! Apps open August 1st.

Thanks! Let me know if you have any questions! :)

Thanks for the response.

I think the last time I've looked at that game was before it actually opened, there sure is a lot more information to take in now, but I'll give it a look.

Seeing that this game uses classes and job skills, I guess that the canon powerloss is a permanent thing?
And are players required to keep track of their accumulated EXP in some way?
hatejakku: (surprise)

[personal profile] hatejakku 2018-07-29 04:24 pm (UTC)(link)
Canon powerloss is a permanent thing, yes, unless there's something the mods are cooking up for the future that I don't know about. As an aside, MoE is a reiteration of a previous RP called Melodies of Life which did have Jedi (Galactic Knight) and Sith (Overlord) as job classes. There's a lot of plot hints running around that more job classes will be introduced in MoE very soon, and characters can change their jobs however often they want.

To keep track of EXP, we all post on the big mod tracker at least once a month or so (I don't know if it's locked to non-players, but there's Finn's as an example). Everyone also keeps an information post on their journals. The code's available to everyone, I just tweaked mine a little. There's no requirement for when to update either post so long as EXP is earned gradually ICly.

I'm sorry if the hassle is a turn-off. I live for that kind of thing, lol. Thank you for taking an interest.

It’s not a deal breaker per se, but t helps to know these things in advance.

I’ll definitely look it over and toss it to my Obi-Wan, see what she thinks.

The permanent cut off from the Force is a little bothersome, though, I’ll admit that.

Yeah, I see what you mean now. I should have been a little more upfront about the canon powerloss thing. I hope you guys find something that ticks all the boxes! Thanks for listening to my pitch. :)

A tiny mention on the FAQ page actually says the following: "An option to regain a character's real power will be added within the game's first year. It will be called "Custom Job" and will involve creating a personal Job out of the character's powers."

The mods have mentioned offhand that Custom Jobs will drop in... about a month or two, so it'd definitely be temporary! :)
hatejakku: (wow)

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thanks, Phil! I had no idea! ♥

Hmmm~ That's interesting.

And just for the record: I love to see how different players chime in here. Initial power loss isn't a bad thing, actually. It can serve a character well in their development...

So I guess we're giving it a closer look at the moment.

Riverview might be of interest to you?

There is some exploration, although you are technically stuck in a city. If your characters ends up in the guard, they go out. Also missions to explore outside.

https://riverviewmod.dreamwidth.org/3399.html

There are some Star Wars cast members there. From various times. EPII Padme, Finn, Poe, Rey & Cassian and Jyn.
