Your first game?

I played Crossroads too, not my first game though. I played CDI (Castle D’Image - I think) too

Castle D’Image

I vaguely recall poking my head in on this game at some point, but I can’t remember an iota of what it was about. D’you have much recollection?

@Pavel

Lords and Ladies, magic and magical beings. I cannot remember the overarching plot as it was forever ago, but magic was in high theme and it was high fantasy.

My first RP focused MU* was FurrySpace MUCK before it got renamed to Stellar Convergence and before I really knew what furries were. I was certainly way too young to be there. Fortunately I don’t recall meeting any creepers or anything.

And then 10-15 years later made a character on Fear and Loathing, which was when I discovered this community I guess.

My first sniff of text-based RP was back in 1996 when I nosed around chat rooms on mIRC. Stuff like Transformers, anime misc. … a real hodge-podge that makes me cringe and smile. Formed some great bonds with folks, some of whom have passed away over the years.

First PennMUSH was in 2000/01 on Wing Commander: Red Horizon, followed by some Final Fantasy MU*s … again, lots of fond, warm memories but I wish I could cleanse my character lineup from those days with fire.

I won’t spam beyond this… if any of this rings a bell to anyone, feel free to drop a DM.

Seeing that it’s been nearly 30 years since I started this hobby, it’s time for me to take my back pill. c.c

I have no idea, I was like 9. Probably Dark Metal or CrackMUX or some superhero place I don’t remember the name of.

@Solstice said in Your first game?:

In hindsight, I was really waaaaay too young to be on the wild west internet of 1996

oof, saaaame.

I am not quite sure I remember which one was first, but it was either The Lion King MU* or Heroes and Villains.

hilariously I tried to apply to Project Infinity for literal years and one of the appstaff replied to one application something like “I just want to say, your writing has improved so much” and I was too embarrassed to admit that it was because I had been like 13 when I first started trying, lol

I love finding interesting threads in the moths between poking my head in.

My first game was Chiascuruo? I’m aware that’s not how you spell it, but gun to my head I could not spell the name. Which is probably the ONLY thing I remember about it. Oh, and it was a fantasy game. So, two things I remember about it.

That’s it. I think I played some random common dude?

Istus

Hogwarts Express.

My first MOO was Harper’s Tale in… 99 I think. I was on a lot of PBEMs and chatrooms before that, starting when I was about 12.
