[@rechonq] Well, in truth Aforgomon is pretty young, but its birthright endowed it with a higher degree of understanding than any others.  I totally agree with you about the old gods.  I understand the merged are insurgents, but the reason for their insurgency seems to be inexplicably incredible power, when the old gods in fact should have been stronger.  In the myths, gods have to use their wits and major gambits to beat stronger gods.  Instead, we had them killed in single blows, which just screams 'sensationalist' and is part of why I'm leaving this RP.  I made sure that any gods Aforgomon faced were as strong if not stronger than it, meaning that the only way Aforgomon could win was to trap them in other dimensions.

For anyone who's curious, the reason I'm leaving the RP is several-sided.  Firstly, I felt the frenetic pace meant to keep things constantly happening and people constantly interested with the new bright flashies meant that there could be next to no character development or sense of growth.  Secondly, there's the sensationalism I mentioned: I witnessed an overwhelming amount of attention to what's epic or cool, rather than interesting for other people or meaningful.  This ties into what I felt concerning people using the premise of this RP to have ultra-powerful characters do what they want in a series of disjointed events rather than an engaging story.  I'm not saying I was exempt from this; I did my fair share of it.  It is the medium in which we immersed ourselves.

Regardless, I still had fun as intended, and I thank you all for letting me play the game.  Sayonara.
