Author Topic: Why so much hate on Rps?  (Read 2024 times)

Otto san,your reasoning is GOLDEN and games are indeed made for fun,all of these games are made for fun,weather its Mortal Kombat to let off some steam,or Minecraft to release your creativeness,or anything eles its made for FUN

For the record the giant cookie discussion had me in tears laughing. Seriously what the forget guys.

Personally I don't mind RP's, sometimes I find myself looking for RP's when the only popular servers up is the same stuffty randomizer DM crap or some awful overrated ''''creative and original'''' gamemode. Sometimes it's not always about having something that's loving 100% new and original and never-before-seen, that stuff can get exhausting and confusing, sometimes the best server is an old concept done right.

Unfortunately the thing about RP's is that: they're never done right. Building an RP is something that takes a lot of dedicated time and effort. You have to build a story in your head, you have to build a comprehensive and large build that's enjoyable enough for someone to role-play in, and more than likely some scripting/serious eventing involved to keep things interactive. For the average >15yr old blockland user, having some friends there and a stuffty brick hut is enough. But most of the people here value creativity and effort, and unfortunately the vast majority of RP's fall beneath this standard. And thus by extension, people here don't put much faith into RPs.

a lot of people don't like the idea of kids having fun doing things that kids do
everyone wants kids to act grown

Join a random RP server, tell me it's fun, lol.

it's fun to them and that's all that really matters tho

it's their way to play/use the game, good for them

The grammar from this guy's post is the person who I'd think would host an RP.

i like role-playing with actual mechanics

like y'know, a role-playing GAME
Then get Dungeons & Dragons

its ironic how OP is trying to defend RPs but yet OP defeats that very purpose and proves the point people make about why these "anime fantasy rp"/"miitary rp PLZ JOIN!"/"family rp" servers are garbage.

they're having fun. I didn't say that everyone else would have fun there. if they weren't hosting the servers they were hosting, they wouldn't be hosting at all, so it's not like you're missing out on anything. just don't go to those servers

thank you for reading this VERY long post
It really wasn't that long. But I agree that there are too many server names with stuffty names.

exactly, all children should not be allowed to have fun and should instead play the multitude of games that simulate turning in your tax returns like normal adults should

You had me, but all the stuff hit the fan when I saw that giant cookie...
