SWTOR:
I am on the Satele Shan server. I don’t play hardly at all, but I have a gross amount of resources available there still. If anyone wants credits or anything please do DM. Either Empire or Repub side. I’ve got friend and family guilds on both sides for the XP bonus, but neither of them has ANY activity. Empire side I do have my main in one of the regularly wins planets guilds, if anybody wants an invite there.
-
@IoleRae im on starforge sadly. the server merges clumped me over there
-
Ah well. If you’re ever in the market for starting over, let me know.
This offer extends to everyone around tho, I will give shit away until I have no more shit to give.
-
@IoleRae @m2abrams15 I literally have billions of credits on Starforge, Imperial side, if anyone needs a boost to unlock some cargo/legacy/inventory.
-
@Mourne lol i might hit you up!
i just started playing again and the cargo size is killing me -
@m2abrams15 No worries at all. Just pm me your character name and I’ll make sure to toss a few hundred million your direction.

I occasionally RP in ESO, because I’m a huge nerd for Elder Scrolls lore.

I AM SURE I COULD MANAGE ERP WITHOUT HELP ROZ THANKS.

@IoleRae I’M JUST LOOKING OUT FOR YOU

But the text box is so limited in MMOs. That can’t be worth it.
I don't know what I'm doing. Poke at Seven Nations sevennations.aresmush.com port 2021
-
One time we made a MOO so we could rp our SWTOR guild without having to try and rp on SWTOR.

It’s actually not all that bad. Some games are more limiting than others as to what can be put in the text box, I know in FFXIV there’s a LOT of RP actually done in tells/whispers, probably more than is done in emotes and says because, fucking /spam/.
Trying to have any continuity in say, The Quicksand on Matteus is going to be nigh impossible.
Basically @IoleRae it’s mostly through the use of /emote commands to do poses to nearby individuals you are RP’ing with like any other game, mixed in with occasionally moving around and doing emits for visual acuity as well.
Easiest way to get involved is to find an RP FC/Guild on whatever game you’re choosing. Near every MMO has RP guilds, even old school EverQuest.

Thank you for the tips!
I need way more handholding than normal people, but I found my patient soul.
-
One day, I will log back into FFXIV and finish the game, honest. But like… still a sprout. And I have all these models to build, and Arx OC to plan…
Mummy Pun? MUMMY PUN!

@IoleRae i mean its not much different than a mush
but im happy to answer any questions ! -
I found this video really weirdly insightful into what hooks me in video games, particularly MMO’s.
I, uh, I have complex feelings about that.

Final Fantasy XIV devoured my life for a while, but I found myself really struggling through Shadowbringers. Eventually forced myself to reach Endwalker but I’ve found I just don’t care about the story anymore, and that’s the only reason I was playing. It’s a bit sad, especially because I absolutely adored everything they were doing in Heavensward, but maybe it’s for the best. It gives me time to play other games now, and read fanfiction, and all the other stuff I’ve been neglecting.
Like Payday 2! I bought that during the Steam summer sale and gosh was that money well spent. I’m not super good at it but it is such super ridiculous and goofy fun! I just need to wrangle more of my friends into playing it with me.
