the 20% damage reduction was a good idea tho to boost the challenge. It's just loki's skills are centered around doing a sht ton of damage quickly before anything can stop her. plus with Warshout she can almost double it

Which will be added
I was even thinking of skipping some in game days so we can have more normal interactions.

Dark souls is not an mmo. That's one thing I don't really let. Dark souls it's own gerne. You can't compare a dark souls game and an mmo game. they're two different breeds of games

Why are we even trying to clear the game anyway?
I constantly compare this to Dark Souls, because that's how an MMO like this would have to operate. With total bodily control, it would have to operate much differently from a run-of-the-mill MMO, otherwise you'd constantly feel like you aren't fully in control of your character.

no, that doesn't work because this is a technology that isn't even out yet. SO we have no idea how it would work truthfully

Obviously it was stated that we needed to get stronger so we could look around the higher leveled zones for a possible solution. You know otherwise they would die like some kind of noob thinking they could just go anywhere without problem.

MMOs rely on your character being locked in a very specific set of moves. Free motion of your arms kills this entirely. Unless the characters are playing these characters like puppets as you would play a normal MMO and not playing them like they are in the world themselves, which would be immersion breaking, there is no reason for this to have even remotely similar rules to normal MMOs.

Clearing the game was Loki's suggestion since they don't know how to get out, and that was suggested by loki as a possible outcome. Mahan suggested to look around. Either way, the group would need to get stronger for both.

err, it's really the same for dark souls to. I don't see how you can say it isn't when you put it like that...

Okay...
At this point, I've screwed myself so badly that I honestly don't think there's any way I'm going to be able to re-insert myself into this roleplay. In addition, I have two overdue projects and finals to worry about. I'm officially backing out
As a final note, because I can't let you win every single argument we've had before I go, Dark Souls fighting is based more on how you'd fight in a scenario like that. Instead of throwing a crap ton of attacks at the problem, you'd use more pragmatic, logical, and reserved combat strategies and weapon techniques. In other words, if you were given free control over your hands in Dark Souls, it would make no difference in gameplay.

Let's go for the guild one, since I at least have a half-baked rulebook for that.

ahw, are you really gonna stop with this RP? that's no fun
I always really liked reading your posts and I thought Yuna and Max could have become great friends but Yuna is just a little shy and I wanted to keep it kinda realistic.Yuna: please don't go... *picks up Fabian* Fabian will be sad if you leave...

Okay, I overreacted last night. I was stressed from being behind on work and being sleep deprived (I've only gotten 16 hours of sleep over the past 96 hours), and I've had time to think.
I do like this roleplay. I like the lore and concept, and I like the characters themselves. I see a lot of potential, and I know you guys are having a great time of this, but I'm just not getting the same experience. So, I'm going to give this a few more weeks before I decide to totally drop out, and, when my summer break comes around, I'll decide if this is something I'm ready to invest my summer into. I only get one summer break a year, you know!
I am going to make a few changes to try and get involved in the roleplay. Firstly, I'm definitely going to make Max and Clancy more relevant, starting with Max. Max used to be a "think outside the box" type of character before he devolved into a plot device, and I plan to have him get involved in questing and become that character again. As for Clancy, he's definitely not going to work at the potion shop for long. Instead, I'm going to use his strategy guide plot arc as a driving force for more diverse encounters instead of a reason for him to be absent.
Finally, with Quinlan's help and permission, I want to make an antagonist character, so that the group has something to do other than questing, and an actual threat can be posed against the group.
If there is any opposition to my plan, speak now or forever hold your memes.

yay! you're not leaving! also, looking forward to seeing the antagonist. I was planning on having Prey kinda as one, but since blaze isn't really responding I'm either gonna drop it or play on on my own ^^oh, and I'll have Yuna interact a little more with max and clancy, they are at the point where they should all get to know eachother a little better after all, so I guess it's logical
