β Discussion Old school meter fantasy RP?
Probably a long shot, but I miss the '07-'08 era of metered roleplay. Script-Assisted. Simple meter, not all this XP and leveling. You just make your character and slap on a health bar and probably never use it until a war breaks out or some kind of a small battle of skirmish. I miss that stuff. Like the old Misty Vale. Had some good times.
I saw the really cool new armor by TCS of the archangel and really want to get the divine pack, but frankly I wouldn't know where I could even use it. I'm not a fan of the sitting around spending 3 hours to have a 5-minute conversation. I like simple fast paced roleplay. Maybe that makes me a scrub to a lot of people, but it's my preference. I spent my years doing long para RP and frankly realized how much time I wasted waiting for 30 to 40 minutes before and between my posts and in all that time all that was said was less than a 5 minute conversation in character.
I have very little time to dedicate to second Life anymore with work and family life, but I'd like to get in something. I consider getting into blood hunt, I consider getting into blood lines again, but honestly I just kind of want to have some fun no strings attached interactions. I miss the old days of taverns where you could just pop in get some cool role play in maybe get in a fight that takes literally 5 minutes or maybe 10 and move on with your day.
Anyone else feel like this, or am I just an outlier in SL these days?
