Possible New Game
Sun, 11/27/2011 - 23:19
I've had the idea for a possible new game if there is enough interest. It would be an urban fantasy game with the characters just learning there is more to the world than they ever dreamed of.
Characters will have minor talents which will be unknown to them at the start of the game but players will be able to make suggestions on what they would like to see.
If there is enough interest I'll flesh the idea out a bit more and send out a casting call.

Some examples of the type of setting I'm thinking of.

These are the ones I can think of off the top of my head. I know I'm missing a lot that I've seen or read over the years but this will give you a general idea.

You know me, I'm always interested in your games.
even though i tend to always get the short end of the stick. :)
You would think I'm out to get you and you're a masochist or something.

or something. :)
I'm interested. I need the motivation to get back on the 'puter and back into writing.
I might be interested, but I'd want to hear more. That was a pretty big spread of examples. Some of them I like, some I don't.
To be fair, I also may not have time...
Someone asked me what I meant by urban fantasy in chat so I made a list of examples of the genre I could think of.
The setting would be a modern day world and at the start the characters would be normal people. During the first adventure they would discover there is more to the world than they ever thought. That it's darker and stranger than they could have ever imagined.
I hadn't fleshed the idea out completely as I wanted to see if there would be enough interest to make it worth while.

I could be very interested, but I'd have a lot of questions. So many that I'm having a difficult time leaving at just saying I'm interested. LOL
Ok, it looks like I've got enough interest for me to take this farther. Give me a week or two to work out details and I'll post more on it.

You're terribly mysterious.
LOL Nope, just didn't want to put much work into planning if no one would be interested.

There is certainly some interest here. I would like to see what you think up.
Hey,
I'm finished with school and have some good quality writing time planned for my next semester so I will have the time and interest to play in this game.
Count me as very interested in what I have heard so far and interested in hearing even more....
I've been having some computer problems the past week or so and haven't been able to finish the write up for this. I will definitely be running something and plan to start it after the first of the year. I'll post more in the Casting Call forum as soon as I have the write up finished.

Scratch me off the "potential" list. If the recent TCQ attempt is any indication I obviously can't do this type of gaming anymore.
I'd like to keep you as a potential. The characters won't be together initially and everyone will be able to post at their own pace. There won't be any worries of holding anyone back.

Are you still recruiting, intending to run etc?
There is another game prior to mine. I do intend to run this but will not be putting out the call until after the first of the year.

Just to make it formal, re-add me to the list of "interested"
