Toa Levacius Zehvor Posted June 6, 2012 Share Posted June 6, 2012 I was actually trying to compare it to the original version. We've added a whole lot of content, and the description has gotten longer as a result. Sorry, that wasn't as clear as it could have been.Edit: Toa Levacious Zehvor, our entry is actually longer than yours. So... there. Not that that proves anything... XDThis is my second shortest RPG ever. Elementum was over 15,000 words. Rather sure Lloyd said he was entering something this contest.Yeah. Some sort of ultimate RPG, his magnum opus.

a goose Posted June 6, 2012 Share Posted June 6, 2012 We lost out on votes because of three RPGs that won't be in this contest. Probably.Which means that, since everyone has a strong favourite, they will vote for it. But they will have two other votes as well, and since they don't want to seem rude, they'll use all three: one favourite vote, one second favourite vote, and one pity vote.Kirse will be EVERYONE's pity vote, and will therefore rise up through the polls because instead of just some people really liking it, everyone will sorta like it.

XPPity votes are nice I suppose, but we're trying to get people to actually like it, and consider it worthy of votes. Winning out of pity votes would be a very, very hollow victory indeed.See, this, people, is why pity votes don't work. What if Kirse wins and your first choice loses, hmm?

The Dark Chronicler Posted June 6, 2012 Share Posted June 6, 2012 I have a feeling that the one who has the most to fear from Grochi and Vorex is me. Grochi wants a staff spot... and Vorex wants to replace me so he had someone who will approve all of his dangerous and destructive ideas. Its a conspiracy! XD... And that is why Grochi is only a Kirse Staff Underling. If he had full power in Kirse, even the elephant dosage of tranquilizer couldn't stop him.

Evex_Wolfwing Posted June 6, 2012 Share Posted June 6, 2012 I was wondering when this topic would be posted... They were called Tenno. Warriors of blade and gun: masters of the Warframe armor. Those that survived the old war were left drifting among the ruins. Now they are needed once more. The Grineer, with their vast armies, are spreading throughout the solar system. A call echoes across the stars summoning the Tenno to an ancient place. They summon you. Allow the Lotus to guide you. She has rescued you from your cryostasis chamber and given you a chance to survive. The Grineer will find you; you must be prepared. The Lotus will teach you the ways of the Warframes and the secrets to unlocking their powers. Come Tenno, you must join the war. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cosmic Titan Posted June 7, 2012 Share Posted June 7, 2012 (edited) I am saddened that Day Run will be ending. And I hope that Dreamland will return.But for now I think I'll stick with saying only Waves of the South gives me any hope for a really good RPG over the summer. The others are just not appealing enough for me. This may change as more are submitted.I must say the idea of exploration in a text based RPG being encouraged is sort of new to me. And I really like it. I also like the large amount of freedom in character creation and I can tell that lots of thought and work were put into it.That being said Waves of the South will probably get my vote. The only was I can think it won't is if Dreamland returns, Rust is resubmitted and Day Run magically returns.

Dreamland was cool, and I think Rust was just too awesome to miss out like it did. I was so pumped to play that, but then it never happened. iBrow, ToD, and Parugi will all be on less this summer, and their characters have important (objects) things to do in Dreamland, so for the time being, it won't be returning. It is still alive, however, so don't worry, it will return eventually. In other news, I am crafting a new RPG as we speak. Unlike Dreamland, where story forced restrictions on players, this one will be more of a sandbox. And perhaps it will be called a rip off of IoP, but so many things can be considered so. ----------------------------- --------- “BRUH” -Makuta, probably --------- ----------------------------- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
