Forgotten/Under-Used RP Ideas

[cerozer0]

Okay so this is just a place where you can ask: "whatever happened to this kind of rp" or "why aren't there more rps like (so and so) anymore". I thought it'd be interesting to see what kind of games people miss and/or have ideas or a yearning for (like a little known movie/video game rp)

I'm gonna start off by saying there are literally no pokemon roleplays around. Or, not as many as there used to be. I'd really love to do a pokemon rp soon, and id set one up myself if I wasn't so busy with musicals and school. It's a hard-knock life.

I feel like I can understand why pokemon rps aren't so common nowadays. Another instance I can understand, though its lack of presence is nonetheless disappointing, is a lack of rps requiring characters to investigate some myth or mystery. Even as a background element. Again, I can understand why - pacing may prove an issue, players may overlook obvious clues or a GM may forget to tell the players something, it works better when there's some visual element so you know where you can look - but still disappointed.

Related, I'd totally join a Nonary game rp if I ever found one in Casual or even Free.

Organized crime RP. Something where groups can be led by a trusted, member who earn their stripes, and engage in underground political escapades with other crime syndicates.

I run a creature capture thread inspired by Pokemon. Have been for 8 years off and on. Only this time have we had a lot of interest in it, so clearly the demand was there.

I was considering making one back a few months ago but decided against it because I had to much on my plate so to speak.

An RP where you play as members of a Paladin order. I only saw this once on another site I did a campaign like this in D&D, I know a lot of people hate Paladins, but there was a position for a team Arcanist.
