Your first game?

@Gashlycrumb said in Your first game?:
I never actually played the original Masquerade
All I remember from the original Masquerade was that there were lots of people who’s go-to IC introduction was “Are you supposed to be here?”.

@DrQuinn said in Your first game?:
‘this place’ was a RP room. I want to say like Red Dragon Inn but I think that’s wrong
I was on one of those AOL chats first too! I didn’t think that counted, but yes. I don’t know if it was ever formalized or structured, and I don’t believe I was at Red Dragon Inn but it was something like that. I was also maybe 12 years old.
I missed all of WoD though. Just had no idea it existed and then it just…it just sounded bad, guys. You all tell so many horror stories constantly, so I don’t feel like I missed out!
WoD calls to its own

If I recall correctly, I got into MUSHing in the mid to late 90s and my first game was SW1. This kicked off because I had finished reading the Heir to the Empire Trilogy (Thrawn trilogy) and I started reading more post movies Star Wars novels.
Oh man. I really enjoyed those books.

Same! My buddy in college recruited me to SW1. That was where I learned to MUSHcode, making some stupid datapad object or something.
I also loved Robotech. I was re-watching it recently with my kids and realizing how much my interest in post-apocalyptic settings started so early with Robotech and Battlestar.

@Ominous I PLAYED ON CROSSROADS MUSH!!! I actually went to the LARP they did <.<
-
@bear_necessities Masq first and Cajun Nights reboot for a bit. If you remember Eyrkah the Mortal or Arienette the Tremere (whom I also played a couple other places), hit me up.
Got what you wanted, lost what you had.

Mine was also Ansible MOO, where I met @junipersky ! Most of us on that game were SO YOUNG and there was a lot of pretty serious drama. I’m still in touch with a number of players though, most of which turned into pretty cool adults. Leopard Army 4 Life.
-
@L-B-Heuschkel gods I could not tell you. I was a literal child just fumbling about hacking and slashing.
But I remember random names like ‘Casperkale’ and ‘Pala’ and neither one of them were me. -
@Muscle-Car oh man i am definitely thinking of a different game called Crossroads, sorry to disappoint. The one I played was a L&L game not a WoD one
-
My first text game was hellMOO.
I will be taking no further questions.
-
My first MUSH was the old Tales of Ta’veren Wheel of Time place. I’d dipped into some MUDs before that but they weren’t really RP places. My mind was blown by the pose command.

@Snackness said in Your first game?:
An RL friend got me into Harper’s Tale (Pern MOO) when we were in high school. I have long since lost touch with that friend, but I’m still MUing!
It was my sister who got me into it when we were in jr. high or high school. I didn’t tend to play very many games at a time, so HT was my mainstay for a long time although I dabbled in others.
Years later when @Tat and I met on our X-Men game and staffed together we discovered that we had actually played together on HT which was fun.
-
Oh and first WOD was one NOLA game, Bourbon and Blood. I tried it because Katrina just hit and I was fifteen. It was humiliating to be fifteen on a WOD game.

It was. This is why I was 19 for like four years. You know, thinking back, it’s interesting no one ever questioned that the age never changed.

@bear_necessities I never got to the Vegas meet up. It looked fun, but I was a poor student at the time.
