On another completely different less-lame matter, wtf is Skyrim? :P

The easiest way to explain Skyrim: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skyrim

Or if that is tl;dr I could explain it as one of the best video games ever made. MUST GO PLAY NOW

One could probably play in Skyrim RP without actually playing the game. It's not too different from most medieval fantasy settings, so a skim through wikipedia article (or even checking The Elder Scrolls Wiki) would probably be enough. I played Oblivion without playing Morrowind perfectly fine, just as an example. Skyrim isn't that story intensive.

Nakuzami is cool. Go cool yourself down as well, please.

If that wasn't a joke and you really don't know what Skyrim is, take a break from PC and go visit the rest of the Internet for a while.

Ummm, what? lol. I wasn't angry or anything, if that's the impression you got. :P If I was too harsh, just tell me and I'll edit teh post. Don't wanna make the boi cry. :P jk jk

Well, that's harsh. Especially toward an internet noob. XD

Sorry :) Skyrim's the latest game in a series called Elder Scrolls which is an awesome RPG. Check Raikiri's link out if you're curious ^^ or search for Skyrim or Oblivion on youtube.

@RHCP I was wondering who I should vote for for most post count obsessed. I think I just found a person...lol jk jk!

Honestly, almost anything could be turned into an RP. But Elder Scrolls would just be...hard. At least that's how I see it. Please don't let me discourage anyone from doing so.

@Wym SMH, man. How can you not know Skyrim? Too busy wit dat NBA 2k12 I guess. lol!

I see. Well, it looks pretty cool. Oblivion too. Now that I think about it it might make a cool RP. I'm in.

And I think I'll delete dat post from before. Maybe I was a little too...myself. xDDDD

@Veg: Because I'm not a medieval video game nerd like you too busy to play video games. I can't even play NBA with these relatives over. lol. Let alone another one of your medieval games. :P

 

[Dawn]

I honestly question how 'easy' it would be to make an RP out of a game well liked for it's sandbox qualities. I'm just saying. o-o

 

[Nakuzami]

I had no idea what the fak Skyrim was until a few weeks ago, when I stalked a few of Skymin's conversations. Then she yelled at me for not knowing what it was, lol. Let's just say it's one of the next games in mah GameFly GameQ. :P

Scrafty?! Don't you talk about Scrafty like that! I just make him look more awesome, whereas you can't even deal with a sissy franchise like Kingdom Hearts. Laaaaame.

I know he's fourteen, I just say that for a laugh. But it's not like you'll ever live up to his or anybody else's level. You're still a n00b. LOLLOLOLOL.

LOL Executed? Awesomesauce? Y'know, I didn't think I'd have to bring this up, but your puns, jokes, remarks and annoying gestures are just lame. :P

On another completely different less-lame matter, wtf is Skyrim? :P

Realize that I love Scrafty, you just manage to make him look horrid, you weird person. :P
. . . I'm going to have to violently strangle you for making fun of Kingdom Hearts. Don't do that. Trust me, you'll live longer.

Suuuuuure I am. Heheheh, I feel like pointing out that I was nominated for "Best Role-Player" for the Member of the Year Awards, but I don't feel like bragging so I won't. Wait a second . . . oops, too late. xD

I don't see how a word like executed is lame. Awesomesauce might be too incredible a word for you to comprehend, so I'll let that one slide . . . for now.

Wait a second, did someone say I was cool?

Nakuzami is cool. Go cool yourself down as well, please.

Oh em gee, someone did :O

@PkMn Trainer Yellow - Well, a sandbox is a place where you build, why not build a completely epic story in that sandbox? Heh, might take a little work though, lol.

 

[Skymin]

@Wymsical @Nakuzami; Hey, hey, hey, cool it and keep on topic guys. Throwing crap about how good you are about roleplaying is really a weak shot. I can just as easily remove all votes from your RPAs and get you un-nominated for Member of the Year if you keep spouting stuff like that. So yeah, shut up. *moderator face*

In other news... I would like to know how a Skyrim RP would work. Because, yeah, it's SINGLE PLAYER and very much a one person game and the storyline would be pretty... well, pretty everywhere. But, if you can think of something cool, I'll be interested.

 

[Yagerbomb]

Well... it would appear as if there is opinions about an Elder Scrolls RP. Answer questions time:

@SuperVegeta: Magic. That's how it would work.

@Rakiri: The setting would be similar to the game, plot in secret right now (a way of saying I don't have S*** right now) but levels,skills would be terminated or greatly altered.

@SV again: It would be difficult, but you fail to realize that I am capable of everything. (Not really)

@Yellow: Au Contraire (Spelling?) a sandbox quality is good for RP designing, as you can construct your RP more freely.

 

[pokemongarnet]

I still feel a bit lost about this 'sandbox' thing... Any one care to explain?

 

[Skymin]

Definition for sandbox game:
Web definitions:
An open world is a type of video game level design concept where a player can freely roam a virtual world..
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sandbox_game

Google is your friend!

 

[pokemongarnet]

Remember when I felt stupid?... It was now. Yeah, I really question how well something like that would work, it probably wouldn't work with having a linear story, but it isn't supposed to is it?

Is anyone else really glad that they changed the Wikipedia banner? That old lady gave me the creeps.

Excuse me? WHAT DID YOU JUST-*looks at mod face* Heh . . . heheh, okay scary lady!
Lol, we were kidding Skymin X3 You know me, I am completely and totally insane, so everything I say is so! Too bad tone of voice can't be conveyed through teh interwebz, that can be annoying sometimes, lol.

Anyways . . . I wouldn't join the Skyrim RP. For one, you'd have to figure out a way to make it work and two, I'm in WAY too many RPs. WAY TOO MANY. WAY TOO MANY!!

*Sigh* I . . . have no idea why I just sighed. Like, at all. No idea whatsoever.
. . . Anybody want to co-GM that Spectrobes and/or Blue Dragon RP? If you do . . . I have absolutely no story written, but I figured if you were to be co-GM it would help if you helped write the story? Anyways, anyone interested?

 

[Wymsical]

@Nakuzami: I'm just gonna go ahead and ignore you, dude.

@Skymin: LOL Noooooo! Like Nakuzami said, we were just kidding. Come on.

@Everybody: I saw Skyrim in the video game store yesterday. Don't massacre me for this, but it just looks like another medieval video game.

Guess what? I've finally decided to give up all emoticons except this one: :) lol

Also, we kinda need more people on Legendary Rebels 2, anybody who's interested come on in.

***POINTLESS ADVERTISING ALERT***
​

I have revamped my most successful RP ever, A Life Time on the Run, and it is located in the RP Lounge. It has new places where you can go and more players being admitted.​

 

[Dawn]

Too bad tone of voice can't be conveyed through teh interwebz, that can be annoying sometimes, lol.

Well, on the contrary we as roleplayers should understand the art of emoting far too well to say it "can't" be expressed. ;)

 

[Nakuzami]

Well, on the contrary we as roleplayers should understand the art of emoting far too well to say it "can't" be expressed. ;)

Well, it also depends on the reader. If the reader misses something, or misinterprets it, or anything, then it leads to misunderstanding~
But, yeah, I shouldn't have said "can't", "difficult" is a bit more appropriate, lol.

@Wymsical - Ignored?! *gasp!*

I . . . forgot 99% of what I was going to say . . . I actually am not even sure if I was going to say anything. :x

Well, here's a small idea that I thought of . . . um, it's not much, but I guess someone could take it and expand on it a bit, and it could bend to fit multiple types of RPs, I guess. Here:

Spoiler:

So, basically, we live in the normal world, whether it be a made up world, our own world, the past, the present, the future, perhaps Pangea? Well, anyways, Pokemon have never been heard of, ever, and there has never been any mention of them whatsoever. Until recently when a discovery was made; an ancient civilization that died out millenia ago. Where the civilization once stood is now home to Pokemon, and the ancient civilization worshipped them as deities. Or perhaps these Pokemon are all fossils, and a recent scientific breakthrough has occurred that enables the reanimation of these fossils. From here you could make the RP almost anything, even a regular ol' journey RP, and this time the Pokedex can actually serve the same use as in the games: chronicling your adventure and recording data on Pokemon. It might not even be a Pokedex, it could be some wondrous tool discovered in the ruins of the ancient civilization.

Yeah, whatever, lol. If any of that sounded interesting, feel free to make a RP using that idea, I probably won't anytime soon.

On another note: did anyone see the Pokemon reference on House? Heheheh, the top comment was also amazing: "Doctor House, may I have my Pokedex now?"
I'm too lazy to go get the link. Youtube it. :P

 

[Blaziken15]

@Nakuzami

I actually think that idea could go somewhere. I hope someone makes something out of it.

 

[Arsenic]

@NKMZ But Dr. House's statement is incorrect, he forgot the fourth state of matter: Plasma
