Hey all. This thread is here for the sole purpose of providing you guys with an opportunity to comment on the RPG. The game has been running for the better part of a week now (and Niff still hasn't posted...), and I felt I should take the opportunity to ask each of you: How am I doing? Specifically, if you need something to talk about: Do you feel your character accurately reflects their videogame counterpart? Do you feel that the worlds I'm describing accurately reflect their videogame counterparts? How am I doing on the storylines? For those who are playing characters I'm not familiar with, from games I'm not familiar with, am I faking it well? I do the best I can with only a handful of FAQs to work with, but I want the experience to be as accurate as possible. Anything else about the game you want to comment on, including mechanics, general storyline, suggestions for new directions the plot could take, anything... Feel free to express that here. But most importantly, I would like everyone to answer just one question: Is it as fun for you guys to RP these characters, as it is for me to write their stories? And if not, I really want to know how you think I can improve on that problem.

1. I feel that your representation not only accurately describes my character, but surpasses it. The in-depthness of the RP is very good, and I enjoy it.
2. I'm only in the first part of the story, but I find it accurate enough.
3. The storyline (at least for me) hasn't advanced enough for me to make a judgement.
It is fun to roleplay the characters, and I don't find anything annoying in it. The battle that I had was a bit difficult for the first battle, but I did do okay in it. Otherwise, it's great, and I appreciate it. I don't see where you get the time for everything, Draxas.
That's all for now.

Y'know, it's a funny thing, I have no idea where I get the time from, either. ...Which probably explains why I've been up past 3 AM for the past 4 nights in a row. THAAAAAT'S where I get the time.

It's...really good. Even though you know nothing about LoK, you've done a pretty good job.

Glad to hear it. Especially since the FAQs for Soul Reaver and Soul Reaver 2 are absolute garbage. It's been frustrating trying to find the info I want, and I haven't been entirely successful... I don't even know if Kain has a fireball attack, it just seemed like a good idea at the time...

Well...he has an energy shot attack...which is basically all he uses against you in SR...I assumed it was that...a single blast knocks you spectral when you first face him.

Well, OK then. Looks like I hit it spot on (mostly) then. ;D

Do I even have a chance to make it out of this situation alive...

I don't kill players with impunity. An opportunity will present itself.

Not to worry, it'll happen soon. The only problem that I've found with that system is that prolonged inactivity on the part of a party member can be problematic... But yeah, it has to happen before long.

Can't say much for the others. But if I get busy, my brother has already been given my permission to cover for me. He's on pretty much 24/7 anymore.

Youre doing a great job "faking" Felix and his Golden Sun plotline so far =P.
Anyway, one suggestion:
Maybe split up the one huge thread into several small threads representing each different world? It would make things much easier to follow, and would allow easier access to one's storyline (rather than having to scan through 5 others, not to mention pages on pages of one thread). Also, this could mean that if two people enter a world at one time, they can interact with eachother easily as well.
Another small gripe I hae is not being able to travel to the last page on one click. Is there a way to do this I don't see?
Thanks!

The inability to move directly to the last page is due to an irritating Proboards glitch. Many threads have been hit by this at various times, and it seems there is nothing we can do to prevent it. As for splitting up the worlds into various threads, I'm not so sure. Half the fun is being disoriented, and trying to figure out where you are, when you jump realities. The other half is laughing at the others when it happen to them. The main thing is that I intent to have you all intersect at some point in the (hopefully) near future, which would make this idea largely obsolete... What do you guys think, though? Keep it as is, or split it up? I turn this question over to the players.

Keep it as it is. It will make things easier when you start putting us together.(Which I also hope will be soon.)
