Hi, Temp! I swear I know you... *checks* Yup! Thought so!
Come to the light side.  We have teamwork, waffles, popcorn, grape juice, and way too much ramen.

Unless one is a genealogist, therapist, geneticist, or FBI agent - who is acting within the scope of their job - to claim that anyone is wrong about their own identity is not merely absurd but also extremely rude.

Hi ho. This is probably the first time we spoke on NS.
They call me Temp. If I take too long to respond, just TG me. Or TG me whenever, I'm online 90% of the time.

Hi!
I'm new to Nationstates, and are going to make my first RP thread. Originally I intended it to became a colonization RP at the 1500s, and then Game of Thrones, but then I watched Star Wars: The Last Jedi and decided to make a SW roleplay in the Old Republic-Sith Empire timeline (Darths Revan and Malak). Any fan of KOTOR here? I'll consider you as Co-OPs, while the thread is still WIP I'll send a TG for you,

I think you'll have a harder time finding someone who isn't a KOTOR fan. Anyone who doesn't like it is a heretic.

I can give that type of RP a try again. I did- alright the first time. Like- my character was a tad out of place I think.

I've been on a real Pokémon craze for the past couple years, and I just can't get enough of it. Plus, last night I made my perfect team, and I really want to do something with it. Unfortunately, due to the mix of generations, I can't make it in any game. It has a Gen VII mon, and Alola is missing half the team. D:

KOTOR even holds up pretty good in terms of gameplay, which is pretty crazy for a game that's old enough to legally drive at this point

I can understand that. I still have my own personal table top Pokemon game designs on this computer. I don't think I got far into the plans- like the Pokedex was an amalgamation of the various Pokedex's featured in the game and show.

... Oddly I got those quotes (Pokedex entries) from a wiki as I've not played a single Pokemon game; but as far as anime goes I like the show.

The NS RP I was in I played a- something mundane I think. Hold on *looks up the RP*

I was a 'Casual Guy' with only a Caterpie (Cater) and an Ekans (Ike).

In my own words Ron (my character) "does[n]'t make a living as a trainer, but is interested in the occasional battle. Especially of the friendly sort- as he's not much of a gambler (he does occasionally do so) nor is he associated with any gym."

Wish I still had some of my old Pokémon games, it's even more fun with nostalgia.

I've participated in a few. Problems I've encountered are the random nature of catching Pokemon (some people wanted the OP to random a 'mon for every encounter himself), and the general problems concerning RP with combat. People calling their own shots and difficulty deciding who wins.

Also the players were usually spread out across the region, making it difficult for people to interact with each other.

This^

I tend to like Mystery Dungeon style RPs better, myself. Keeps everyone together (for the most part), and it's a bit easier to justify being lax on combat rules.

Yeah, that's been my experience, too. Everyone just tries to write their own story and ignores the other players. :/

One I participated in just before P2TM was born avoided that decently by having a gang for everyone to fight, so that helped bring characters together.

Same, though it would probably need an overarching plot to avoid player characters being isolated.

I honestly stopped keeping up with Pokemon (saying that as someone who was a huge fan as a kid) after Gen 4. And even then, half of them seemed phoned in and half of those seemed like hollow parodies of mons from previous gens. And from what I've heard of later gens, it seems to be getting even more blatantly gimmicky.

Yeah, next to all of the new designs seem ridiculous to me as well. My main interest is in the older games.

You should stop hanging around with Genwunners. Most of my favorite mons are from Gens V-VII.

Its less that I hang around them, and more that I'm one of them (actually, I liked Gens 1-3, and even 4 wasn't all that bad, but it was clearly the start of the downward trend).
