Is sadly all too common in online RP with how deeply invested narcissists use RPing as an outlet to pursue standing and dominion over others. In other cases you might have a dwindling community trying to reassert itself within a framework it can control. These things are indistinguishable to outsiders and the results are functionally the same with a tight-knit, insular population running a constant game of quality control.

The vital difference being that the former is incredibly codependantly abusive to almost everyone involved, and in the end the bubble starves itself of oxygen. I’ve seen these things happen elsewhere too many times and I get such a knot in my stomach when I see the patterns (the fractals!) all around me yet again.

Could be worse, could be the admins doing it. Point is; I’m guarded and watchful for red flags. Once you have a select few telling you what to do, stifling what could be better because it threatens the rut, do something radical. Flatten every hierarchy, no gods, no masters.

Errr there’s gunna be a skyrim-esque game set in the same universe as Pillars of Eternity? How has this gone under my radar? Obsidian, are you going to redeem yourself for the snooze-fest that was Outer Worlds?

I may have been busy with work when it was announced!!! And i’ll give it a look when i Solve the plight of New London.

I never encountered anything like this. In fact I’ve seen advertisements for adventurer events too, and I entered one of them and the group is still doing its roleplay in Tural, with a separate chat thread and all that.

I don’t doubt that you’re speaking sincerely, but I think you may be biased.

Out of curiosity, are you Sameyilleur?

Widowmaker is getting a Sylvanas skin in Overwatch.

And yes, it is sort of exactly what you’d expect based on both characters.

I have seen some people using Tural, which is quite a surprise honestly for current expansion areas to be used at all for RP.

I do not deny I am bitter about RP on the European servers has been organised, its shambolic, if that makes me biased then that makes me biased. I can only mainly relay my own experiences but I know I am not alone in my dislike of things.

No idea who this is sorry.
Anyway Emet, how is the lifestream treating you?

Yes… haha… yes!!!

It is over. I am Elden Lord.

You know what I find weird?

People screenshotting and/or mentioning Pet Peeve threads and their members elsewhere like it’s worth making posts on.

(It is exactly who you think it is, mentioning no names, also hi hello hey)
