    Ascension Sojourns is a WOD 20th game accepting players for Mortal, Sorcerers, Psychics, Mage, Garou, Kinfolk, and Bygones.

    The political climate has cooled. Life has returned to a more peaceful time. For the moment the darkness as crept back into the shadows. But how long will that last?

    Plots are dynamic and ongoing. Staff is available and responsive. We are a small game that welcomes players of all experience levels. Starting Xp is awarded for interesting and needed concepts. Group applications will be entertained.

    @Jumpscare said in Hello, Survey, and Looking for Recs:

    For me, I see them as how much of the game is dictated by code.

    I agree that the code plays a part, but I don’t think it’s that simple. There have been plenty of games branded as “MUSH”, running on MUSH platforms (aka TinyMUX / PennMUSH), that had significant amounts of coded mechanics. I never once heard any of them called

    Brazil at one point had basically all of oWOD Revised coded

    (Also I have no clue what RPI is.)

    @Gashlycrumb Also, chances are most of the people you (general not specific) have a problem with have a similar opinion of you so 1) Why would they care? 2) Why would they be surprised? People are allowed to avoid games because of Staff (whether your own issue or in support of someone else) so it seems hypocritical to not allow Staff the same option especially when they’re the one putting in the effort to run the game.

    (Fun side note, Rogue’s been able to control her powers for like 15 years in the comics and I don’t think I’ve ever seen somebody do a version other than a teenager who can only touch people in elaborate bondage scenarios. Because Rogue has been played by the same person on almost all of these games.)

    20 on UH, 24 on HAM, 25 on LnL, not a teen. Her sheets on all three of those games make it clear there are no exceptions to the no touching rule, bondage-based or otherwise. Maybe on some of those various sexytimes superhero games that seem to proliferate, but that player isn’t keen on those.

    it had been seven years since anybody had played Raven. A character so popular you tend to see her open only slightly more often than Batman… (Somebody did pick Raven up on UH, but only after being given permission to rewrite the entire app and throw out all existing “history.”)

    Just 1 year, 7 would be before UH started. After the long-term player of the character dropped during the big early 2020 walk-out, the character was reapproved 1 month later and went through at a quick count 3 other players until there was that May 22 to May 23 gap. Funnily enough Batman had a gap between June 22 and Jan 23, so you’re right, only open slightly more often than Batman.

    @dvoraen said in General Video Game Thread:

    Does anyone else increasingly feel like you have no time ever for recreation? Here’s an idea of my backlog, assuming I did full completions including postgame:

    finish Octopath Traveler I - 20h? (Postgame quests and bosses) Octopath Traveler II - 120h? Dragon Quest I-III (HD-2D) - 200h? <- hard to judge; probably higher Dragon Quest VII Reimagined - 150h? <- estimate due to 200h on DQXI Horizon: Forbidden West - 70h? God of War: Ragnarok - 70h?

    Now let’s add in stuff just released or soon to launch that will undoubtedly consume focus!

    Windrose (EA launch) - > 50h easily I’m sure; depends on content. Soulmask (1.0) - > 100h if I commit to it

    I’m doomed. 😭

    Yes, I feel this way.

    I beat DQ1-3 but I need to finish Octopath Zero and DQ7.

    It also doesn’t help that I spend about 3-4 hours a day painting now lol.
