Figure it's safer to bump with trivial question. (Shouldn't risk the Content Gods' wrath as much, hehe) But am definitely drooling for this for sure! Hope your FF RP goes well btw! To everyone else - Kolonaea needs you!

I kind of feared that this recent iteration of the Sims wouldn't be up to par. From Sims 1 to 2, 2 to 3 there were massive changes in engine as much as anything else that allowed for one to overlook the content "reset" that comes with the franchise. Sadly Sims 4 looks more like a step to the...

This is a really cute idea. Not sure about how effective it will be in the long run, especially if there ends up being a workaround, but seems like a fun alternative to more cumbersome methods.

Thanks for the quick response! Sorry for the length and labour, still rather new to forum discourse so the fear of stepping on toes, being rude or warned/banned due to misrepresentation of an idea has me trying to be overly cautious. Behind this shield of pixels nothing can harm me! hehe...

I should preface with the honest contradiction and hypocrisy that I am teetotal (or straight edge might be the more "modern" term), but I find no fault in individuals who smoke tobacco or drink coffee in excess and yet I find myself, for reasons both conscious and unconscious, appalled by drug...

I think there is scope, most likely a possibly concerning and controversial avenue but from a narrative point of view interesting, to have a game that simply follows a family trying to survive and escape the war (though I think someone may have already mentioned Jewish refugees, it's a story...

Thanks for the info. Thinking of going Japan and Columbia. (Rough archetypes being, one pov soldier, two pov yakuza [a footman & a drug cook] and a pov "businessman" with dreams of a bygone world). Just to pester with a few more questions - Is it right to assume that the Imperial...

Really interesting looking RP. Love the detail and back-story. Hope it gets off the ground! Umming and ahhing between the areas (considering signing up if I may). Did the Alphas (greys, hehe) learn their lesson after the Betas, or do they still like to fiddle about with the local genomes...

Sweet. Good to know. "Rosenkrone," nice name, though can't help but think of a dark, cold place full of blood, sweat and lies :) It's great to see more names signing up!

Just realized - is there any "fixed" spot where the capital is? Guessing maybe on a river or the mouth of a fjord / by the sea, but beyond that? Imagining it'll be somewhere defensible in the North. Oh, also, is there a name you've got in mind for it or just "capital?" Oh, also-also, the...

Looks quite fetching. You've put a lot of thought into this! Wouldn't mind trying it out, the world needs more intergalactic space operas (silly as that sounds). Like the look of the commissar actually, or possibly juggernaut, will have to flip a coin and get working on a sheet. So do...

Sounds like it was a solid PPV for the most part, bit of a bummer 'bout the finale I guess. I think there was never going to be any doubt that Miz and Ziggler would amount to one hell of a pairing in the ring. The guys get along off camera (going by the chemistry) or just good at what they...

I hope so too! Sadly don't really know anyone here that I can press gang. Guess we've gotta just hold out and hope. Hah maybe also collect on past RP favours? (If they exist on this site - "I joined your RP last year...")

And as I recall from a Graham Norton Show episode, McGregor said that his uncle actually advised him against doing Star Wars. (Not sure how much of that was a jape though). Kind of underlies how much of a massive [pop?] cultural hit the franchise was that even ancillary characters developed...

When I got Shogun 2 I played it obsessively for days on end (well within reason). When Rome 2 came to my PC I found that I wasn't as drawn in as Shogun 2, or even the original Rome or Medieval 2. I think it is probably one of the weaker entries into the franchise, but by no means is it as bad...
