I don't have any CR with the character so it feels super weird to me too. I would have thought endgame would be something the mods thought up, not something specifically tied to a character.

Like you said I know there are other things to do, but it just rubs me the wrong way. What an odd choice.

agreed tbh. i know plenty of people who have gotten commissions of their wols with their favorite npcs but it's always the same one or two npcs so it feels like any other canon/fanon ship that someone just happens to like.

in this case it feels like what you said, like she's trying to set up this image that megumi is the perfect woman that all attractive men should want and it's honestly kind of creepy given how much she obviously projects onto the character.

it's true equality when the gay canon couples are just as empty and chemistryless as the her canon couples

i'm guessing you don't know what it's for yourself. it's not just for 'rarely seen in dwrp' muses. it's also for 'muses you don't play often and feel like pulling out and showing off'. it's a lot like the everyone in here meme, but it focuses more on your rarely used/rarely seen types. it says it in the goddamn rules.

- tag in with your rarely played muses
- or tag in with a muse that is rarely seen in rp in general
-- got a muse you haven't played since you voicetested three years ago? post them!
-- got a character from a 1970s romcom that nobody remembers? do the thing!
- seriously whatever man i'm not your mother do what you want
- but r a r e is the name of the game.

You're right, it is weird that the player plot that was pkanned before the endgame announcement, is happening completely separately from the event log, and is happening two months before the game ends is so heavily tied to the endgame.

ayrt

exactly. like yeah okay, the promise, he sssorta saves her (? zack does a lot of heavy lifting here and she doesn't even realize cloud is there) some years later during nibelheim, and then they don't see each other AGAIN for like 5ish years when ff7 starts...wherein he's done a full personality change, been repeatedly traumatized, had his mind broken, and been a labrat

where is all this supposed closeness? they're just two people from the same hometown who made a one-off promise as kids and she can't let that shit go as a 20+ year old woman. it's kinda pathetic honestly, but canon plays it up like it's this big romantic love story. if they're so in love why does he totally bail on her post-og leading up to ac lmfao

"We do have a player plot featuring Joshua Rosfield that will have some connections to the upcoming event."

Yes, it's 100% completely separate and entirely unrelated. Absolutely. Maybe the event was planned before the endgame announcement, but the mods are using it as part of the endgame plot now. It's weird and incredibly lazy, and it really turns me off to the endgame plot overall.

i’m the person from above and mom and dad apparently once had a fight about him watching the sopranos with a kid who was like preschool age, so hazbin being family viewing isn’t out of the realm of possibility

but in most circumstances showing your kids age-inappropriate media isn’t legally child abuse

while i’m canon reviewing: their day 1 fandom-assigned f/f pairing, which is their most popular. the other girl is dull and the relationship doesn’t highlight my favorite parts of the character. there is another easy f/f option that really lets her shine and a super toxic f/m one with the fandom bike that i want to psl out.

I understand why so many people go all-in on tfln (it's like junk food, also we skew "adult with job" age so not as much time for big logs/PSLs despite the desire to RP) but I hate that it's basically the town square of bakerstreet and you can't "meet" new players anywhere else if you're not in a game.

TFLN's quasi ic interactions are really annoying me lately though.

you're just telling yourself this, fyi. i don't do texting memes or games and i meet new players all the time

My personal experience is that people get a feel for if they actually want to try more substantial threads with your character through texting memes/TFLN. Once you're out there, you're more likely to get bites on memes like "body heat" and "insomnia" and smut picture prompt memes.

Name and shame, nonny. If it's so hard to looking away from, let other people know where the show is.

Otherwise this is dull as dirt. People in this hobby can't take a hint and refuse to communicate? Well duh, that's not news

da but i don't even see what there is to be upset over. it sounds like a player had been planning a player plot for a while and the mods decided to work it into the endgame because it tied in thematically. i think that's kind of cool honestly, and i wish more mods would be willing to do stuff like that with player plots.

Re: SONGEREIN

(Anonymous) 2024-07-28 08:31 pm (UTC)(link)
i think there's a difference between tying player plots into regular events and tying them into endgame, personally. it can be hard to care about player plots if your character doesn't know the character or canon the plot is from or if you as a player don't know or dislike the canon in question. this plot is great for fans of the canon but feels a little less great as a ribbon on the end of a game.
