So as I was going through my Character Update, I realized there was something missing, largely, in what I was writing.
\nRoleplay.
\nI mean, this is a MMORP<\/em>G, right? And the Alliance is an RP <\/em>group, right?
\nWell, frankly — my RP is just plain old turning to be largely situational. Posts when I think of it (I have a couple lined up for Torchielle <\/strong>and Lynn<\/strong>, and another one or two nebulously out there for PC<\/strong>), and always in RP character voice online, and open for RP chats if they come up. But I really don’t have strong, compelling stories to tell with these folks. Or, rather, I have too many other things going on to carve out time for strong compelling stories with them — especially since there’s the distraction of, well, gameplay. PC has a big story. Torchy does (or could). Most of my characters have strong backstories that could lead to something interesting.
\nBut … that “could” will probably largely remain shallow, not going much beyond hints and motivations behind chit-chat and related activities.
\nI know there are folks who spend hours just standing around with their toons RPing. And I accept, respect, and, in fact, admire that. But I also look to CoX a lot for the opportunity to just bash on bad guys\/opponents. I’m happy (in fact, more than happy) to do that IC, but I really … sadly .. am not going to be acting out the Great American Novel as part of the game. It doesn’t fit with what I want from the game, nor the circumstances in which I usually play it.
