Open World Human RP Planning

[vellichor]

I actually never thought about the gun thing that way! I think that actually makes sense to help even out powers a little?? Though there’d def still need to be restrictions so we don’t have any crazy explosives or machine guns or anything lol. And I think the idea of them being in the shop would work too bc is we could establish that they’re still limited and kinda rare but still exist in some capacity (though I also think just allowing simple ones would be fine too).

And agreeing about time period too. Just placing it in modern time would be the best option bc that keeps in-game history easy to track and lets us have more freedom with technology. Maybe the reason phones, some forms of electricity/transportation/etc don’t work is bc of some kind of disturbance the rift causes (kinda like Hogwarts lol).

Honestly maybe we could do a straw poll for these little things rn? Like having guns, lights, transportation, etc? It seems like most of us have our minds made up anyway and are thinking slightly different variations of the same thing. From there, it’d probably be easier to create the world knowing those things (which I believe Orion has some maps already that he’s posted as open world concepts?) and at that point we’d be able to allow groups to apply and things since we’d know the “rules” of the world. We could also vote on the rift thing but it kinda seems like we p much all agree on that.

Edit;; with the rift thing maybe like with what quill was saying we could have each group talk about what happens afterwards? The rift would need to be mentioned in most guides then and we can have an faq if anyone has questions about the world at that point (I believe that’s p much how ‘lore’ operates in the animal rp rn in regards to the world) so things are easy to find and simple to understand without having to worry about actual history being altered or added to or anything prior to the rift.
