[OOC] Fate/Stagnant Apotheosis

<Snipped quote by Unoedipal>

You don't imagine how much the "We aren't X." Line disappoints me when playing a fandom RP. It makes everything you look like you're just stealing someone else's work.

@KoL

???

That's, uh, that's probably because that's exactly what's happening on the concept level. In saying I'm abiding by Type-Moon mechanics, I'm inherently stealing from their concepts to make a premise and internally-consistent world.

<Shocking Truth>, but yeah. I'm sorry if that disappoints you, but I am not, in fact, the writer of the work on which this roleplay is based.

@Unoedipal

Not to disagree with you, but I kinda know that. And never cared or do care what that sentence implies is that whatever you do is pointless, which (while being true on a greater level) still would make the very act of RPing based of someone else's work pointless. In sum, there's no need to rub it on people's face, other wise even a game of tabletop RP on a pre-made commercial setting would be 'stealing other's work'.

@KoL

I think we're talking about different things. I'm just saying we're not Nasu so we shouldn't justify add-ons to the legend that didn't exist in OC applications, because that's stupid and encourages a slippery slope/arms race in which people app increasing levels of wank in a fluid environment, whereas the canon is crystallized.

It doesn't mean this is "pointless" or whatever. In the first place I don't even get what making an RP "pointless" means, since the whole point of it is just to have fun.

I don't have a horse in this race, but we could we tone down the OOC conflict? The Servant's haven't even fought yet and this seems like the kind of topic to leave some lingering bitterness. Not that I don't fan flames but this seems ready to snowball...

@Lonewolf685

This isn't really conflict, tbh. I mean, I'm not a mind reader, but this doesn't seem like the sort of thing anyone's actually getting riled up over.

[KoL]

Nah, nah. I'm kind of used to these situations. I will not push the talk forward, for many reasons including the fact that it wouldn't change anything. All the characters are made and the RP is rolling, thus there's no point in arguing about that kind of stuff, specially when the discussion took a treacherous turn.

[Lonewolf685]

Meh, I just felt like disavowing myself of liability IF anything devolved.

Shine on you crazy bastards! Stay shiny!

[Unoedipal]

crazy bastards

I remember when I jokingly stated that Prisma Illya was the best nasu project being worked on. I miss those days.

[Lonewolf685]

Maybe he'll one day do Tsukihime 2?
Wait, word is they are...but the heroine is Tohno's incestuous cousin?! DAMN YOU NASU!

[kusanagifire]

tfw Edison is now lion

@kusanagifire

If that is actually Edison that would be glorious.

It is Edison.

Why is nasu so fucking terrible now lol. I mean, granted it is rather fun to make fun of Go, but at the same time it is also legit bad.

[Lonewolf685]

Same thing happened with Evangelion. He doesn't have the same mind set he did when he first started. The man beyond the original FSN, which had some bone chilling shit (I still shiver thinking of that one scene from a random woman's perspective as Zouken's worm's descend on her and she begs for a death that was agonizingly far off but she still has to go through every second of it. And in the end he walks off with her skin as the Grail War spins further out of control.)

Now though he's already hit gold and can just rehash till it stops selling. Don't need to reach deep for any emotional depth when you copy what already worked.

The classical "shill" effect. Truly the diluting of a fandom is the worst.
