[OOC] Log Horizon: Western Europe

[NarcissisticPotato]

We need some sort of event to get everyone together so people can start posting. Any ideas, people? We can all run a dungeon or do some sort of event or maybe even organise an event ourselves?

[ClocktowerEchos]

We could drop a nuke on everything and force everyone to buddy up in underground safehouses and have to band together to survive the hostile wasteland-

Yeah, I'll stop playing Fallout and get on my meds >.>

@ClocktowerEchos

Don't stop Clocktower... Why would you ever want to stop? :~:

Anyways, I guess I'll use you and @Ozerath's numbskulls to start a little event that could give people something to do! C: I don't want this thing to die so quickly when it had so much potential! I'll start a PM with you guys.

[McFazzer]

Lemonade has put on a little parade of People of the Land kids. Do with that what you will

[Ashifili]

Oh, this might be funsies.

While leading around NPC kids, Lemonade gets accosted by a bunch of lvl90 thugs. Through the loophole of 'restraining =/= harming', they take him down and kidnap all the other kids as well.

Naturally, word of this spreads out pretty quickly, and the small NPC population in Seven Hills that remains decides that, holy shit, these adventurers are total jackasses, and leave.

Guild functions are paralyzed due to this, causing trouble especially for the big guilds. A curfew is set by bigshot NPCs, backed up by Royal Guards, while players try to figure out where exactly the kids had been taken and whatnot, as that's the only way they can separate the 'good' adventurers from the 'bad' and resolve this problem.

Of course, it'd be best if Ostarion just posted and injected moar plot into this. XD

@Ashifili

I approve of this idea

@Ashifili

Ostarion doesn't like posting often, unlike me and my shitposting. He likes of his unicorn status.

Anyways, he saw the idea and approves of everything. Except for the last bit. About him posting.

@Ashifili

Are the thugs NPCs (RP term) or a few of our own characters that are doing the dastardly deed on our mariachi friend?

[Ashifili]

Well, who's character is a pedophile here?

If no one wants to step forward, I can probably make a bunch of NPCs real fast to serve the purpose.

Just make me a co-GM. :3

[Ozerath]

I think RP-NPC's are best for that, unless somebody wants the rest of the characters pitted against them?

[ClocktowerEchos]

Well, who's character is a pedophile here?

@Ashifili

I vote @NarcissisticPotato, even the thingy under their name give it away, "Dirty on the outside, Fluffy on the inside". It sounds... sexually enticing like trout in a dress in certain contexts...
_{jk xP}

Tbh though, we should use an not-Lander NPC, name 'em <Big Ol' Papa Cuddly Twinlke Bears> or something

@ClocktowerEchos

So I'm a pedophile now? ;-; This is rascist! It's just because I'm a Potato and you don't want my kind round these parts so you accuse me of a heinous crime! The historical context is real! >.<

@NarcissisticPotato

1) I'm not being racist against Potatoes, just you because you're a Narcissistic Potato. It ain't racism if its only one person (vegetable?)

2) By admitting your guilt, you will be forever known as <Big Ol' Papa Cuddly Twinkly Pimp Bear>

:3

[Jangel13]

And now this is getting creepy....

[ClocktowerEchos]

Yeah... I may have gone a bit overboard... >//<"

Geez.

Is Cook just another way of saying "Hey, here, have a sub-class that gives you a massive amount of self-buffing versatility!"? Because geez, Nyanta was supposed to be a weirdo for getting his subclass to 90 with Cooking. If food always gave these big-ass percentage buffs, why wasn't everyone else a cook? XD

Also, Sacrifice is abusable as fuck. Sacrifice + Revive loops, anyone?

[The_written_John]

@Ashifili

Ooooh... yeah, I didn't think of that...

edit: I also nerfed the self-buffing food items.

edit edit: double nerf.

@Ashifili

Considering that Alec has his black magic potions and our other healers may very well get revive soon/later, its it very much abusable.

@The_written_John
Now for my personal review of the sheet. Warning: It gets harsh and ranty.

You have been warned

The Cook thing seems to have been over-inflated in my opinion too. It was supposed to be a very niche sub-class and not some super healer-class supplement boost. If food was that strong, normal healers and potions would be of little use since people would be line to make these super foods and skip potions and bandages and stuff. By handing out these portions to others, the entire purpose of having the Enchanter class is null as would most buffing skills. Also, wouldn't the ciderale be more for brewers? I'll give the benifit of the doubt and say its from the guild he was in tho.

For the personality and bio, it seems waayyy too grimdark and edgy for me to really care so much of it. I find the dramatic double personality thing to be somewhat cliche and the kid's history is over dramatic. I'd understand and feel more for him if at the very least didn't sound like an edgy teen fanfic mixed with stock shounen anime protagonist. Bullying is a traumatic thing I know and I despise it, but with the way its currently written, its only the emotion of "meh" from me. At least make it slightly more light hearted and cheery so it doesn't look like an emo preteen's fanfic.

The spells don't seem all that interesting to me either, all mostly stock healing spells with a few mildly interesting ones. Also, what would be the point of having three different healing spells? Really, the only difference is name and healing amount (and presumably MP cost), other wise they're all carbon copies. Have one healing spell that does plain healing and remove the others or try to make them unique with buffs or additional effects or something other than sparkly animation. Going back up to my complaint about the edgy grimdarkness, <Sacrifice> doesn't seem to really fit the motif of a healing class; one would expect to go with a warrior class or maybe a weapon class. A smaller compliant I have is that it seems like you made the effects of the spells first and tacked on holy/templar sounding names to them. <Invigorate> seems like it'd increase speed or stamina or something and <Prayer> sounds more like a RNG buff spell.

I don't have much of an issue with your items (minus the formatting and the lack of additional items or detail of current items). But the ring, why is the ring Phantasmal Class? Its a guild item meaning it'd be production class and its effect not only seems fit for a very specific player, but it makes all of your foodstuff look really OP.

My final verdict: Redo your sheet. You've managed to make it bland, flat, edgy as fuck, OP and very, very amateur looking. Which is impressive to say the least. Make it more cheery instead of this grimdarkness wannabe sob story and make your in game character more balanced and useful without being OP and removing value from the other support classes. Do some research and pump some creative juice into it. I know this will sound harsh, but that's because it is, I'm the kind of person who thinks that some people can only change if they're given a rude wake up call.

If you need it, I'm open to assist you in remaking it (although I'm more than doubtful you'll accept it after all of this)

[The_written_John]

wow... 2 and a half hours wasted.

i'm not even going to fucking bother re-doing my sheet.

Better things to do <3
