Ideas for story, Post, discuss, debate on plot lines Options

[kayden997]

Title says it all. If you have an idea on a story or a plot that could be used for the R3 Community game, post it here.
As a community, we'll come up with a plot that most/all people will agree with. If you don't agree with the plot, simply explain why or create a new one. And remember, don't take the type of engine into factor. Let's start from here before we can work out mechanics and game play.

I'll post the the suggestions up here when we come up with some.

Wow, that actually sounds pretty interesting! A great thing about this idea is that a lot of the things (like what areas there are going to be, ) are already laid out. Also, the way that things are already presented even now make the transition even easier (levels, types, RM skill, etc...).

We could also incorporate "rev points" (those points that you get for participating in contests) with this as well. Perhaps those could be used to gain access to new spells?
Also, because these boards are centered around building RPG's, maybe that could be the replacement for religions? (if you've ever seen an XP vs VX fight, you'd get what I mean) Also, the player would probably want to pick one for alignment purposes (which may or may not affect anything depending on those that he wishes to be in cahoots with). To make things simple, the choices offered to the player would be RM2K3, RMXP, RMVX, RMVXAce, Other maker A, Other maker B, and Game maker. Each one would have their own perks and disadvantages when it comes to trying to get help.
And all this while, the character would be making an RPG in their engine of choice (most likely unplayable, but would allow for problem solving with problems in the code/script/eventing.) Some things will only be solvable by community help and sometimes resources will need to be made. That is where the traveling to the land of the forums comes in. By recruiting others in Recruitment city, you can get those things done, it you're lucky. If you just want to talk about specific problems in your game, you'll have to go to the correct forum town.
If you talk about the wrong thing in the wrong forum town, the mods will come and take you to the correct one while giving you a light scolding. If you somehow become too obscene to even utter a single syllable in public, you'll be taken to temp ban jail. But because this is a game (which in this case probably won't be stated anywhere within it), there has to be something that causes people to do these things.
Because some people are even afraid of this mysterious thing, they will stop talking until you find a way to remove them from the specific forum. Also, after a while, you'll probably get noticed for doing that much around the forums and people will try to join your cause (a mix of regular members, revolutionaries, staff members, and gold members; one of each type probably). They will all eventually become apart of your party for getting rid of the unknown enemies. Also, your party members will be more likely to help you with your RPG project, maybe even crossing engine boundaries to help if needed.

The different classes will be the things included in the "Type" section for a poster. (example, I'm a beginner-level artist so I will know some beginner-level art-related skills/attacks) The poster's base level will most likely be their level as of now or some other time. They would probably look like their avatars (example: XMO would be rendered as constantly changing anime boys/a funny little magenta ball). Because the main character is supposed to be a customized person, there should be a method of using your own sprites for the character by importing appropriate picture files. Of course, it would also have to come with some pre-made stuff for those that don't want to mess with things like that. The player would then be able to chose their type and they would start out as a beginner at level one with zero posts. They would probably arrive at introductions train station or something like that.
