So, do you genuinely feel this way or is it because you're trying to personify people's insecurities? Anyway, the most fundamental explanation is: supersoldiers do supersoldier stuff. The world it itself is based on various Final Fantasy installments, not to mention Square Enix's animated movie of the same name, 'The Spirits Within'. I'd recommend that you watch Let's Plays of Final Fantasy 13 (XIII) and Final Fantasy 7 (VII). This roleplay has a lot of influences from the latter, FF7.

Other than that, you'd have to be more specific about the things you can't grasp. If this is the case for everyone, and the reason why people have left the roleplay and new ones haven't joined, it's quite a serious problem. I'd have to re-write everything.

[hider=these hiders must be annoying, sorry for that]No, I'm just trying something new with my character-playing abilities. I've noticed most of my characters fall under two archetypes - hot-headed, douchebags, or unpredictable goofballs. I looked around for some good characters that might push my limits, but, to be honest, I was too obsessed with Twenty One Pilots' album to not do Blurryface. I'm still unsure of who exactly he is, but from what I've seen on the internet, and from what I've inferred from the album, he is basically the evil-esque personification of insecurities. If you want, you can google "who is blurryface" and quite a lot will come up. It might help to explain things. (One quote that could really get you in the feel would be: "Who is Blurryface and why does he want me dead?". I do think the whole point of the Blurryface album is to inspire people to rise up and defeat their insecurities, though.)

Anyway, thanks for the help. I do actually own FF10, but the gameplay isn't quite for me so I'm still getting used to it. I do understand it a lot better now, though, and I'll probably go do some research on Final Fantasy so I can get just that bit more to grips. My character might take a while, as I'm currently in the one-week holiday off school, meaning my mind's gonna be occupied with studying and random things. Hopefully I'll be able to pull my finger out this time, though, and get a little faith in myself. Though, it does make a lot more sense now that I know it's inspired by Final Fantasy. I think the main problem for me is when I think it's a completely original world someone's made, with no ties or inspiration from anything, I panic. Therefore, my mind panics, and I struggle to grasp the concept, because I'm scared I won't understand. It's kind of a "post hoc, ergo propter hoc" moment. Thanks again, though, you've really helped.[/hider]
