[OOC] Horizon Zero Dawn

[Blue Demon]

I'm going to be logging off for a while. If you'd like to start, I wont tell you no. Otherwise you'll have to wait for me to return. :D

[Koda]

Hmmm, then start I shall before I also depart for a bit!

But where we start. Are you okay with starting before the separation event? Any preference on the starting scene or is that up to my discretion?

[Blue Demon]

I figured we'd start with the separation. I have no preference as to what the starting scene actually is.

[Koda]

Oh? Start right when they get separated? Okay then!

[Blue Demon]

Maybe not right when, but the day of. Somewhere in that time-frame.

(And it's looking like I wont be able to get anything up today.)

[Koda]

Got it! That gives me enough to go on. I'll try to push something your way by day's end.

And no rush in writing/replying. You take your time.

[Koda]

I totally ignored your earlier question about a dog accompanying our characters. Sorry!

Why don't we stumble upon said dog when our characters get separated?

[Blue Demon]

Dog-machine. ;)

And no worries, I'm just on my phone wasting time and keeping my brain occupied. As soon as I have a real place I can write, I'll get something up.

[Koda]

Sorry! Dog machine indeed!

And that sounds good to me. Also, would it be too far fetched to think that the machine animals also have meat on them for the humans to consume? I suspect there might be something past all those metal plates haha!

[Blue Demon]

From the screen shots they look all mechanical. But I'm sure we could mess with it. After all, if there were no animals with meat on them, humans wouldn't really survive all that long. Unless they all turned into cannibals...

Hider

[Koda]

Right ... that's what I noticed. I just don't know what people would eat if the animals didn't have meat. Humans doesn't seem too likely ...

Maybe we can just throw in some of our creative license as writers eh?

[Blue Demon]

Maybe there are the Machines and there are animals (that aren't machines)? Make a mixture of them. The machines stick together and the animals stick together? But having organics under the machine exterior is just... IDK man, that's just weird in my book. But hey, game license right?

[Koda]

Yeah ... that's a bit far fetched the more I think about it. I just thought that the beasts were hybrids of mechanical and flesh. Maybe we should just separate the organics and the machines though. Cause, I mean, that'd be weird. Until we get more information about the game, we're just going to make things up as we go.

So! Organic and mechanical animals then, yes?

[Blue Demon]

Sounds good to me. I'm working on getting my first post up. Should be ready in an hour or so.

Or half that time. :D Set up complete.

[Koda]

You beat me to the punch! I'm so sorry that I didn't get mine up as promised. I had to wait until I asked about those little tidbits of information then I got distracted!

I shall go read the post now!

[Blue Demon]

It's fine. :D

I hope you like it. I tried to describe as much as I could to set the scene, which resulted it being kind of dry...

[Koda]

Oh not at all! You've given my a playground to play in. I assure you: I will play in it.

Okay the above sounded weird. What I was trying to say is that you've given me a lot to work with. I dig that.

[Blue Demon]

My #1718 post. I missed #1717 :(

Anyways, I'm glad I gave you enough to work with. And that statement did sound weird, but I understood. ;D

[Koda]

Huh? You missed what?

Haha awkward phrasing happens to me from time to time. I'm still working on my post. I had to rewrite it a few times. I have something going, then it falls flat. Time for the fifth retry!

[Blue Demon]

Post #. I made it to 1717 and missed it.
