Where have Original RPs gone!? [Death of Originality]

not sufficiently, since you made this thread.

Also sithposting is pretty ebin well done lads

@Andreyich

I mean I did, check my posts.

I won.

@Andreyich

I am tho...?

Where have Original RPs gone!? [Death of Originality]

The OP's title is a little dramatic. There is no lack of originality on RPG per se but rather, execution. The execution of a RP, for me, matters more than some nebulous concept of originality and how unique it is.

@Commander Lazer

Actually there are fandom rps all the time, the thread was in response to "where dem originals rps at all i see is fandoms uwu". You can have max-hype execution for your marvel rp (infinity war 3.0) but it will still be a fandom RP. You can't say vanilla icecream is chocolate.

Where have Original RPs gone!? [Death of Originality]

<Snipped quote by DeadDrop>

_{But also people who want to do lewd RPs are fine, let people RP what they want}

@Fabricant451

Yes, well I'm a lewd community ally.

The search system isn't as robust as it is on a forum like Xenoforo so sometimes it's hard to filter the fun from the 'fun'.

snippy boi

@Hyde

I like to consider people who take tropes or inspirations from other mediums or genres are also OG, no bashing on our trope-gang that runs around here but y'all are cool. I think the writing contests bring out the best writers in the guild also.

Where have Original RPs gone!? [Death of Originality]

Maybe it has but when I open 1x1 it's like Isekai Kink RP or Mommy enslavement Harem that mostly dominates the section itself. Some people have LEWD original ideas, but not the OG SFW ideas us normal folk enjoy

Where have Original RPs gone!? [Death of Originality]

Just to jump on the status-bar train which never ends... Where have all the original RPs gone, have they dried up and jump off ship? Are there too many generic fandom rps. Personally I don't think so, but there are definitely more fandoms than original RPs it just depends on a lot of things but everyone being stuck inside is definitely contributing to the rise of dope ass OG rps and our beloved fandom rps as well.

Thoughts?
