[OOC] Mid/High Casual - Divinus: The Deity Roleplay Mk.II

[Kho]

Just a note, leveling up from Level 1 to Level 2 only takes 3 Might, not 4

[Hael]

Daaaaaaang, I sleep for 8 hours and find as many new posts

I'll get on it right away

[Dawnscroll]

@Kho But by exerting our strength fo the BB, we automatically level to level 2 AND exert our influence, right?

[Cyclone]

I play vanilla. If I want the complicated mechanics found in modpacks like FTB, I can go play other games which focus on such elements. Plus, vanilla is always up-to-date, performs relatively smoothly and forms a coherent, unified whole.

@BBeast

But have you actually tried FTB? It looks ridiculous but it's so much more fun. By comparison vanilla has zero content and nothing to do.

@CycloneYou all need to play something really creative.

Like Dwarf Fortress. You know you want to...

@Fabulous Knight

Vanilla Dwarf Fortress? You have good taste, but like BBeast you're still doing it wrong!

Try modded Dwarf Fortress; specifically I'd recommend Masterwork. While sometimes clunky it's pretty fun too.

[Fabulous Knight]

@CycloneDamn right. The community for the game is genuinely astounding. Just how much work is put into it -- not only by Toady, but the people that play it.

@Dawnscroll

Not sure I catch you. What the Big Bang does is as follows:

For a Level 1 god (who has 4 Might) it takes up all their Might and forces them to level to Level 2
For a Level 2 god (who now has 1 Might) it takes up that 1 Might

BUT, the Big Bang has not yet started, we haven't even started putting our energies or setting the ground Laws. All that exists, at the moment, is Nothing - pre-existence, a World devoid of a universe, dimensions, space, time et al.

[Dawnscroll]

@Kho You have Order. The grid work upon which to build the Big Bang.

Which counts as my contribution to the BB. So still level 1, but will jump to level 2...

@Cyclone

Haha, I only Minecraft with mods, but I only play Dwarf Fortress in vanilla. MC is empty and meaningless without modifications, but defiling a masterpiece like DF just seems... sinful

Noted, I'll edit the summary but right now I'm tired and on a phone so I don't think I'll make a pass on the wording.

I r no be level one forever? :(

I have thought about Toun's entrance. I've even taken some notes, which is madness this early on. However, the post is going to take a while, so I'll have to finish it tomorrow.

As hints, I'll not have Toun go full crazy until the BB itself, but he'll be interacting with Slough, Teknall, and maybe others.

If everyone could be so kind as to leave the plunger for the big bang untouched until tomorrow at least, that would be awesome.

@Muttonhawk

@Kho That reminds me, how long do we have before it's decided to set off the BB? Because I intend on being one of the last ones to post, for reasons

@Hael

This will be a relatively slow paced RP until the end of the Academic Year. The stampede that just happened isn't reflective of the usual pace. So everybody, sit back, relax, and take it nice and easy, there is no hurry.
If there is an urgent need for people to get posting, I'll say so. For the moment, there is none.

[Legion02]

Made my first post. I'm really sorry it's not on the same level as everyone else when it comes to writing. It's just that it's really hard for me to write so abstract. I promise that the writing will improve as the universe is created and stuff is less abstract as it is now.

[Vec]

God dammit guys, were you chained all this time? 11 posts in 8 hours!! I can't even sleep!

let's see what's in store for me now...

@Legion02

I agree. I hate super-abstract stuff like this. I'm just gonna write "Vulamera was born and she is smart and intelligent and the end"

[Scarifar]

Advanced-high casual posts: 20% relevant and important information, 80% abstract shit few people bother to read.*

*actual percentages may vary

[Double Capybara]

And finally done.

I hope there is no problem in me basing the "pre-universe" story in an existing myth, I just felt like it would be a good inspiration.
