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.

I'm only planning a couple internet worlds, maybe three. Crucible didn't fragment as much this time (plus, I want to get to the good stuff sooner). Odds are we'll just have the two "halves" of the Crucible we have to fetch, which is the original artifact and what's called the Honeymold, which becomes a coating that stabilizes the artifact. We get a huge dose of crucible energy that protects us from the hazards (well, really, the lack of anything whatsoever) making up the Void, then move into the rest of the Multiverse. And it's for just that reason you pointed out that we will not go to any real counterparts of internet worlds we visit, so as to avoid being repetitive.

EDIT: Another post to give heads-ups on our new locations. Normally we'd have to be together to get warped back, but not anymore. Being pulled into the Cyber Realm gave that little ounce of crucible energy needed to "tag" you, so that when one avatar touches a piece, all tagged characters are pulled back.

Also, Chesire, you'll have to specify your exact location and which group you catch up with before I can do stuff for Bass.
