Lol.

Okay, guys, have fun in OoT's version of Hyrule! You could end up following OoT's plot, or you could just find the piece laying around somewhere. Get exploring to find out.

Suddenly grateful we aren't in Skyrim due to the fact were looking for something. I've been in almost everywhere and that took a couple months... Wouldn't be too bad if it was in somewhere noticeable like top of the throat of the world, or somewhere in the Underdark. Hyrule smaller and low res, so that's ok.

Did my CS get buried and not looked at, or is it okay? I guess I sound a little impatient - not my intention, really. I just want to get in before I lose track of what's going on.

Buried in the chaos of moving to a world, sorry. Lemme take a quick looksie.

EDIT: Bass is accepted, as is Collier. Feel free to drop in (literally, if that takes your fancy) in any way, shape, or form that you please.

Right, I just would like to ask a quick question. We will be jumping in other parallel universes and such, instead of just around the internet/games/video programs right?

As the definition of the Multiverse- An infinite realm of being or potential being of which the universe is regarded as a part or instance.

If we are only hoping around in the internet and such, it's not really a Multiverse.

Yeah, I'm fine with jumping around worlds from games and shows and all, but don't call it a multiverse game if it takes place inside the internet.
Remember that Fairly Odd Parents movie, Channel Chasers? They didn't call it a "digital multiverse" when they ran around inside cartoons. They just called it an adventure inside the TV. Besides which, the concept of multiple multiverses is just silly, because the multiverse concept itself covers every possible reality.

Not just the internet, we just start out there. We had plans to move into physical universes, but the RP slowed to a standstill before we could. And if it were truly two, we'd capitalize both words instead of just Mutliverse. Think of it as two "parts", I suppose. It's simpler to simply say Multiverses, but the "digital Multiverse" is really a single universe with so many different realities that it's sort of a pseudo-Multiverse, if that makes any sense.

Unless the internet is the parallel universe which contains these worlds, in which case it's a multiverse. Or if each world we visit counts as its own universe, then that too is a multiverse. Since we're getting anal about definitions, though, I'm just gonna point out that the two multiverses thing doesn't really make sense. If there's multiple parallel "real worlds" and "internet worlds" then that is still a single multiverse, even if you cleanly separate internet fantasy land from everyday reality that same divide means you have a multiverse in your hands.

No, that doesn't make any sense. It'd be simpler to just write it all out as individual universes like normal, instead of all taking place inside the internet. You're clearly intent on only going to games and movies and stuff, so the fact that it's inside the web doesn't matter.

Also, what's up with writing everything as looking low res? If we're actually in a different universe, and not a simulation from 1998, then we should perceive what we see as looking real.

Keep in mind this is the first time this has been pointed out, much of the lore we've kept is still in the works and has yet to actually even be mentioned IC in any detail at all. So don't be afraid to help us work something out that most people would find neat (meaning continue what you're currently doing).

The term "two Multiverses" was a very early term that may be subject to change (yes, I do feel rather stupid for putting it in the thread title, I may see about getting it changed if possible on this version of the Guild, put it back to "Return to the Multiverse".), so there's that. I dunno, I need sleep. I'll give it some more thought after I get some sleep.

That's how the internet actually works here. It runs on data from human data storage, so since OoT in its most complete form is only on the internet as the original, low-res version, that's how the internet would display it. The physical counterpart that does not rely on human input would look real. That's the difference between being in a digital setting and the physical: digital relies on what we as people actually have created, while physical takes that and continues evolving on its own. Once the Crucible is reassembled, we'll graduate from the rudimentary internet worlds into the physical, since in fragmented form it can only handle the simpler travel the internet requires. In its full glory, it can easily push us through the more durable barriers that separate full universes and wouldn't be limited to the weaker intrauniversal barriers of the internet.

And as I said, we can go to anything on the internet, not just games and such.

I'm not big on the whole "oh the world is the same as it's perceived in the real world" thing but I can live with it as an artistic choice, though I feel it'd make more sense if the characters were also adapted into the artstyle of wherever they go rather than sticking out like sore thumbs. This does however present a problem with books which, you know, don't have artstyles to them. What then? Look for official illustrations and pick out the nicest?

I do think that having the divide between going into the game/move/whatever world and there being an actual "real" version of that world to be accessed later is rather forced and pointless, however. It feels like an attempt to extend game time by going "right, now you can go to that place again, but this time it's REAL AND DIFFERENT!" and it just feels like the oddest thing to hang in front of the players as bait to try and have them advance rather than an actual goal.

So, trying to run after everybody else in poorly designed clothing? Sound like a plan.

Also I love the term 'She-Bass'. That's amazing.

Here, have my notes so far. Admittedly they tend to focus more on things actually relevant to my character (for instance, I glossed over quite a bit of Omega's backstory), and they need some formatting help, but it's better than nothing.

So far, we've got a group in the rocket debating where to go, some people standing around, and a group going to Castle Town.
