Apologies to all writing partners both current & prospective. Been sick for two weeks straight (and have to go to work regardless). No energy. Can't think straight. Taking a hiatus. Sorry again.

Where's the personality? The flavor? the drama? The struggle? The humanity? The texture of the time and the place in which this conversation is happening? In a word: where's the story?

I just didn't see the point in spouting points already made at someone who already conceded to them:

While I agree with most of the rest, I must say I respectfully disagree [with this passage].

Your philosophy is different, it would seem.
Notice there's never any birds around anymore ... used to be birds. Singin' in the morning to wake you up. Singin' at night, lookin' for girl birds to meet up with. Kinda sad.

<Snipped quote by pugbutter>

And the worst side of free roleplay are uninspiring posts condensed into one or two sentences.

This argument goes for literally any of the sections -- and at that point becomes a non-argument. What you are saying here is much less an argument than 'bad writing is bad writing.'


And Haley already agreed with those. Pointing them out is a tautology.
Yeah, yeah. As long as that sort of villainous role will see conflict, I'm eager to try something a little different.

But middle-management are the worst kind of people...


I know; they're the everyday villain
I was thinking more logistical stuff — keeping the party fed, maintaining its finances, grooming its public image ...

An army marches on its stomach yadda yadda
Any room for silver-tongued diplomat types? Or do you need straight killers?
While I agree with most of the rest, I must say I respectfully disagree. Yes, there's a lot of word and sometimes a lot of fluff, but Advanced to me seems like a group of people that pay particular attention to detail. Sometimes a RP is tossed in here because of super heavy lore. I am just getting started in this section, so I may have to get back with you.


"Bigger is better" doesn't apply to writing. Details are bad if they're not, minimally, inspiring a sense of awe for this fictional place and its inhabitants, and ideally also developing characters; forwarding a plot; creating themes, symbols, and imagery; establishing a narrative tone.

@tex is 100% correct: the worst side of Advanced is just a whole lot of words for words' own sake.
@BrokenPromise The sp00py meta shit is honestly the weakest part. I was hoping for a Katawa Shoujo-styled exploration of the girls' respective mental problems and home issues.

Also it's kind of sad that Steam tags and clickbait YouTube thumbnails have ruined the surprise for everyone. I was lucky enough to get to the game early enough where I didn't know what to expect from that threatening content-warning at the beginning.

Still GOTY-worthy though, the existential crisis I've been having since playing it is a 10/10
