Can You Remember? -An old School RPG

daretobe Aug '15  /  edited Aug '15
** A Foreword **
Have you ever been sitting around flipping though games and ideas, trying to find that one RPG that just feels... Right? That touch of nostalgia, with a retro feel, but not too campy? I want to find that spark, that element to those classic RPGs and bring it back. Worlds less cliche, and more detailed. Battles cooperative, breaking from the single player restrictions of handheld's past. Think of every RPG, try to find the thing that made you love it, that music, those graphics, the characters, the combat? I want to find those things too. With this game, I hope to use the sparks of old games to bring about a game that is strong. I want a game that will last. I want a game, unlike so many others that are forgotten, or those that host it loose interest in. Unlike other GMs, that will move onto a different game every other week. With this open idea, of just... and RPG, in its simplest and purest form, I hope to not only include many genres and consepts, but to also never be BORED! Bored! Thats the key word, right! The glade be a barren waste, where lurkers wait in vain. But no longer. I really want to get into this and have good times. Who's with me!

|| Tech Level ||
I want to keep it pretty simple. The highest tech level is very early single shot muskets. Handguns are not a thing. Guns are large, unreliable, and require a lot of skill and prep. (But, they are not forbidden)

This fills me with enthusiasm.
I usually prefer hosting, but this could be the game to make me enjoy playing as much.

I'm really glad to see the hype this game has started to spark in a few players. I've chosen to go a more JRPG style vs a western RPG style game. As thus, the art and tone will be more animanga sprite with more soft elements instead of an old hack and slash. I also want to state that this game will not replace or ruin SteamShips. The problem I have with Steamships is I want a select and 5-6 regular players in the game. With CYR-RPG, I can bring in, change up, and help players just joining the game while also treating the regular players with good story. It also works better for larger parties and single shot Characters, unlike many of my past games that have been mainly 3-4 players driven. As always, I will evolve and edit my playstyles to keep the new and old players of Fabletop happy. So there is my update on my table, have a good one! -Dare
