(Ok, In this post I will be discussing RP but I AM NOT RPing! I am merely discussing a rp subject and everything I say is OOC.)
Roleplay is too hard. Just going through all these guides and tutorials is like going through a maze! The way it is presented makes it very unwelcoming to new players as the shear volume of material makes it extremely hard to pinpoint all the info needed to play. I myself am a semi-newcomer and found the long forum posts exhausting and complicated to go through. I get the basic parts of RP and I think I could do some RP with a few people but I feel that the RP community needs to find away to make learning RP easier than scrolling through massive forum posts (though those posts were super helpful). Maybe a Youtube video, a how to, or a for dummies would make Rping feel fun and exciting and not just a chore! Please share your thoughts and please direct me to more beginner friendly RP sources! Have a nice day! (Note-I am not trying to diss anyone in this post. Those forum posts were great guides that made me understand the topic but they were not beginner friendly and hard to navigate)
