Somebody might have done it on a meme because of the meme, but I think it was just a random ship example we all latched onto.

I might be misremembering, but wasn't the original joke because someone was using Jensen Ackles as a pb for Trunk? And then we ran the joke of Goku/Dean being otp into the ground.

This is the first time I've seen anyone successfully put what cringe means into words.

getting to the "hi my name is..." part of first threads is so annoying. sometimes i will just assume introductions happened in later threads if it never comes up naturally in our first one, and the other player is usually cool with handwaving that.

the only thing i hate more is playing the whole arrival of a new character to a game. i am just baffled by game hoppers who do nothing but this boring process over and over.

mte when reading this again, esp when getting to the part where they seriously think if a "nuke came out of nowhere" all you have to do is say you didn't do it and NO ONE COULD PIN IT ON ANYONE.

you know, exactly like how some geniuses on the right like our former president suggested we should do now.

this is unrelated to anything but i wish i had any muse for an npc

i think the only one i might be able to play would be og ancient emet, tho his immediate gravitation towards the wol also made me gag so god only knows what it would be like in actual practice

yup there are some characters who would be hard to play if you wanted to stay IC but never think about the wol (or azem). for example an aymeric could do it because aymeric has other things going on in his life, but the game went less in depth into g'raha and original emet, so the wol/azem mentions feel outsize for them. not to say no one should ever try, obv

This has to be bait lmao. Are we forgetting that G'raha ran an entire society for 100ish years? That he's literally a father? That he spent even longer than that as an Allegan scholar interested in everything he could get his paws on? And before that was raised in Sharlayan to be as inquisitive about the world as he possibly could be? Did one scene in EW where he eats a burger and smiles at you remove every single piece of his characterisation prior to that? What about his life before Crystal Tower with the Brothers? Literally all of these things could give you things to do outside of the WoL but it's okay I didn't play Shadowbringers either I just looked at the pictures on the wiki!

"we" didn't forget those things, but the game makes a much bigger deal about his thing for the WoL than any of what you mentioned. as i said, it's not that anyone shouldn't try it if they want to play him but not interact with WoLs, i'm all for playing what you want according to your preferences and who cares what anyone thinks. he'd just be the weirdest character to do that with, since you'd pretty much have to ignore a big chunk of his characterization.

The implication was that there's no way to play him with out WoL interaction though and I gave examples of how that could be done. You can also mention the WoL all you want in NPC tags without interacting with billions of WoL ocs if you just use the canon default for your NPCs WoL to talk about. My point is that it's doable and using G'raha as an example that it'd be impossible was stupid.
