The RPG Concept Thread

[Saved]

Take yer time, Bruce. I wanna get in on it, but right now free time is tight. So the longer the better, in my case. Doesn't mean I'm not still up for playing Wesley, though.

Hey would anyone (besides Shlee since I KNOW she's up for it) be interested in an Anime RPG? Because I think that since all Anime shows are so different, that they could fit well in a combined Universe. I was thinking the RPG (for the most part) would be set in an Anime-esque Japan, but there can be other places integrated in as well, and if the Anime Character in question's show/manga takes place outsde of Earth (i.e. Gundam, Outlaw Star, etc.) then we can also set Earth in those universes as well. I for one would be down for a DBZ character and/or Digimon character. Thoughts?

Not a fan of anime, apologies.

I don't know, BL. Each anime kinda happens within it's own universe. I mean, I'd love to play Vegeta from DBZ or Scar from FMA, but this RPG would have to be pretty thought out. Still, I am interested.

Although I am not a fan of Anime there is a large variety of types of anime. This is as useless as trying to make an RPG for the other comicbook characters not playable in the current RPGs: doesn't mix well.

That's weird. Cause that exact concept has gotten interest and may be approved soon.

Yea, I know...and I see it not lasting.

Has any RPG not involving Marvel or DC besides CAH lasted here?

Star Wars is looking like it will. *knocks on wood*

Why jinx it? If it fails, I blame you.

Pfft, **** that superstitious ********. That's as bad as believing in religion.

... I'm still holding you accountable.

Good for you.

Good for you.

What? He was pointing it out in a way as if I had no clue when I did. I was merely making it clear.

Just a wee bump. Last time I was RPing here, my downfall was I took on too many characters. This time, I'm limiting myself too two RPGs. The only other RPG I'd be interested in playing isn't on here, so I'll just throw the concept out there.

A Warhammer 40'000 RPG. For those of you who have no idea what it is, it is like Star Wars, just grittier and more War-ish. It's actually a Tabletop Wargame, but it could be easily converted to RPG. There are over fifteen races to choose from, from soldiers to aliens to robots to zombies. It encompasses all futuristic races. Hell, there's even evolved fish. I haven't worked out a premise, because I'm just seeing if there is interest. For more info on the universe, check out this:

Scroll to the catagory for the races. Anybody reckon they'd play it?

I was thinking of a What If? RPG

 

[Harlekin]

They've never worked.

 

[Mercy]

Kay.

 

[Mercy]

Heroes RPG?

 

[Harlekin]

Nope, that one's failed too.

 

[Mercy]

Damn. I will return with more ideas ^_^

Heh, right now we're kind of at a point where just about everything worth trying has been tried. Everything was either a novel concept that didn't quite keep its steam going (Multiversers, Movie/Anime/TV RPGs, Zombies), or based on a single franchise that didn't have enough people interested to keep it alive (Heroes, Transformers, a couple of different Star Wars ones before the current one). Or complete and utter genius that went criminally unnoticed in its time (*coughSilverAgeRPGcough*)

I do think a steam-punk RPG might be interesting, though.

 

[Gallagher]

I always fancied a fantasty RPG.

Well, why didn't you join Gods & Men when it was operational?! People like you are why it died!!!

 

[Mercy]

Mmm, maybe a Spy one, or maybe one that revolves around James Bond?
I'm gonna keep shooting ideas.
