Watch me partially pretend to not know what "genre" means!

UNIQUE GENRE BLENDS!

Like Fantasy World Apocalyptic!

Elves in Space!

Victorian Alien Horror!

I love genre blends. O__O They always add this unique atmosphere to something.
So much. So much like you have no idea!



We need more RPs that reach completion.

Yeah I went there =DDDDDDD
And this.


And to add my input:

+Wuxia. ^_^

+Something that combines character-depth and quality-over-quantity/-frequency posting AND over-the-top, unrealistic combat. Don't make me choose. Don't think you have to choose. Give me both!

+More clearly-defined goals or at least theme and tone. Like the difference between "Saving the world as an at-last, hard-won triumph, following a grueling chain of tragic losses and pyrrhic victories(coughAsmo!cough)" versus "Hey, we're on a quest; we beat a bunch of low-rank badguys working for the mid-rank badguys we encounter in each village up until we fight the main, big badguy with lots of tag-teaming and dramatic speeches."

Granted sometimes even the GM doesn't really know which one the game will be, but I just think this could help prevent those moments where a GM says, "The players are good, but it didn't quite turn out like I was hoping."

+More games where the GM and/or other players aren't trying to awkwardly "balance" everyone's combat potential as though it were some videogame, combat-focused dungeon crawl, or PvP battle royale for plots that explicitly aren't that. For the ones that are? Oh, well, carry on then. :)


+More games where the GM fleshes out the setting by controlling NPCs around the players and players are encouraged to write for NPCs as well. I miss some of the ensemble darkhorses other players would come up with--sometimes better than their main PC.

+More games where I can play a ninja. Like, non-Naruto ninja, ranging in realism between "fairly historical" to maybe Tenchu-level all the way up to PS2 Shinobi/Nightshade at about the max. I don't dislike Naruto, but sometimes I miss ninja-as-primarily-sneaky-martial-artists as opposed to Wizards-with-shuriken. GMs make me cry whenever I see "and NO NINJAS."

This should do.
