The game that literally pays players to be active and still can't find enough players, brought to you by the cringe mod who anon-failed ITT and sends unsolicited messages begging LA beefcake players fo come to her game so she can hop their cocks.

favorite thing so far was the part where she asserted that if she personally begs someone to join the game, there's a possibility they won't get in because they're bad, unwittingly confirming that she begged people to join based on nothing but which characters she's thirsty for (whether or not you believe there's a snowball's chance in hell she might have rejected them)

it doesn't even have a navigation link where you can find everything. or a drop page

There isn't one, whatever joins parthas is bound to parthas

you're here FOREVER

the truly stupid thing is as a game it's fine. nothing particularly special and it would probably chug along okay as a smaller smut game, but the way she's acting is tanking interest faster than a fart in a crowded elevator.

It would be fine as a sandbox for friends, but as a full game it's very bare-bones. I don't mean that in the sense that you have to be creative as a player, I mean there's almost nothing to go off.

The two gods imply some sort of dominant/submissive thing but it doesn't seem to have any affect on gameplay. The setting is some vaguely pleasant fantasy world where you can visit a beach, forest, or desert. There's a soulmate mechanic but your character can have as many as they want. Just from reading the info pages I have no idea what sorts of events will happen, if there's an ongoing metaplot, or if this world is even populated by anyone but player characters. Concepts like the vördr are brought up and never explained. Along with the drop page, a bunch of basic info is missing (death mechanics were only addressed yesterday, and the arrival scenario and hiatus mechanics haven't been outlined at all). It feels unfinished, and this is still significantly more information than there was on opening day.

Which, again, is all fine if it's just a casual musebox. As a game with a full app process hoping to attract strangers? Not a chance. I'm not sure why the mod can pour so much enthusiasm into making playlists and searching for potential players but they can't polish up the game itself. Parthas isn't the only game to do this, I've seen a few lately that run an interest check with a very rough unfinished concept and insist on opening the game a week later instead of taking the time to finish it.

honestly it's so small and casual if the mod would just stop pming total strangers and keep it to her friends/friends of etc. it wouldn't even be getting any attention here, it's pretty much a themed musebox.

according to the faq "acting a fool" (gag) is worthy of a strike

i'd say the mod acted at least a dozen fools in last night's shitshow

that was a gsai-tier performance

pays players?

anonfailed?

first time i'm hearing this where what when

On this post, just another thread

I couldn't find the abortion river stuff

abortion river was a planned game mechanic that the mod abandoned when enough people wtf'd at them. there's a magical river in the game setting that was supposed to "cure" pregnancies by getting rid of them. now the river still cures diseases i think but it doesn't magically disappear fetuses

i cannot understand why but this is cracking me up so hard. why is this so funny.

Yeah, banning ingame pregnancies is not uncommon in a sex game and neither is having some kind of in universe reasoning for it, but the phrase magical abortion river is so absurd that it became a small meme immediately.

it was the result of the mod asking on rpa about whether it'd be possible to cater to those with pregnancy fetishes while avoiding the things that made other players frown on pregnancy plots

good intentions, absolutely terrible execution

Still had a pregnancy plot the first three months so not sure where all the fetuses are going now.
