virtuallyoffline | Meet, Greet, and Plot.

So how many characters will this be after Kayaba's announcement?
«Meet and Greet»

Applications and reserves are closed. The first floor information post is now up. Along with the game officially starting on Saturday. That means it's time to Meet and Greet! Doubles as a chance to plot for CR and shenanigans while we're at it too.

«Your Name» What you would like to be called by.
«Contact» Your preferred method of OOC contact.

«Character(s)» Include their usernames and what canon they are from.
«Personality/AU Information» Just a quick and short rundown to give other players a general idea.
«Plans for character(s)» Are they going to leave the Starting City? Stick it out in the city for a week? Or just remain in denial and hang around hoping help will come? Try and level for the first floor boss fight? A short and quick run down is fine.
«CR you would like» Basically, is there any kind of CR you would like to see for your character(s)? Positive CR or Negative CR? Things like that.

And, just a small message from the mods, welcome to the game! We hope you have fun here.

Ahhh it's nice to see a fellow fan of it!! I'M— just hoping I can play him all right; he's definitely new to me, but yes I love him so much haha ;w;

And I love Rinoa as well! FFVIII was my favorite and... actually the only Final Fantasy game I actually completely finished! So I'm really looking forward to threading with her! ♥

Pardon the laziness, journal jumping is a pain though sometimes.

I'm sure you'll do just fine! I can understand that he's new, but I'm sure it'll work out.

Mutual love at first sight. I like this thread already. I have to admit, I've never managed to beat the big bad. Ulti will probably forever stomp all over me, my gamer cred is ruined. :(

I COMPLETELY UNDERSTAND, YES :'D

Kyaaaa I hope it goes well!! Thank you so much for the encouragement; you are so cute ;w;

Ahaha and that is totally okay!! Once again, I totally understand, although for me I find it's generally the overly addicting mini-games in Final Fantasies that keep me sidetracked from finishing. Like I got REALLY CLOSE to finishing X but blitzball ate my life... And I have to say Triple Triad was very close to ruining my ability to complete VIII, but I guess having to go through the game to get the sweet cards helped there |D It's been a while since I've played though and I've been really wanting to replay it! I may get on that soon :] (Also I am rambling all over the place, I apologize for that)

Just had to wrap up a few comments is all.

I was trying not to be too "HEY I JUST MET YOU, AND THIS IS CRAZY, BUT YOU'RE GOING TO BE AN AMAZING TAICHI. SO RP WITH ME MAYBE." but... I probably didn't succeed, did I? XD

No, no. Don't apologize for rambling! I tend to ramble all the time! This just shows me that I've found a rambling buddy, that's all. So now we can ramble at each other and it's totally okay, because we're both ramblers. See? Yeah, triple triad can be a major time sink. I don't know how many times where I've sat down to play and blown the whole several hour block of free time on "NO, I WILL BEAT THIS CARD BATTLE" and not... moving the plot along. Afraid I've never gotten that far on X though, but I'm good at not finishing games. Just like how I got lost on Pulse when I played XIII. People might have complained about how it was too linear at the start, but I liked it, because soon as it opened up I had no idea where I was going. ;A;

fsdlkjl NO NO IT WAS MUCH APPRECIATED! ;w;

I would also be fine with this, because rambling is my unintentional way of life! BUT YES Triple Triad ahhhhh I still love that game so much; it's way too addicting... I am also terrible at finishing games, but there's certain series I have a terrible streak on, like Final Fantasy and Tales of games, both of which I've only completely finished one of each, BUT I ENJOY THEM... I'm just bad at finishing them. I always hit some point and get lost or I start sucking too much and I lose steam and then time passes and then yeah...

I didn't get too far on XIII either, sadly— THOUGH I started it semi-recently so I'm still trying to kick myself to get back to it. Right now, Pokemon Black 2 is eating my life though 9_9

So... I probably shouldn't mention tripletriadflashonline.com, but I'm going to mention it anyway. >D

The longer a game takes, the more likely I'm going to have a problem finishing it. I'm still in awe over the fact that I've managed to finish DA: Origins, Mass Effect, and Mass Effect 2 honest, because that's so abnormal for me. (Makes sense, I managed to finish KOTOR too) I think that's why I love bioware so much oddly enough. Though I imagine the plethora of mods available for the PC version of DA: O has helped somewhat. YAY FAN CONTENT!!

I haven't had any luck with XIII-2 either. I go back to it sometimes, but I spend too long going "AND WHERE DO I GO NOW????" to get very far. Oops?

OH MY GOD NO KDFjslj MY LIFE!! What little I had of it, it will be gone now!! /slowly... loads site anyway......

YES THAT'S HOW I AM TOO! And wow, those are all games I need to... start still (and then not finish, I'm sure— well, we'll see when I get there). And oooh those mods sound interesting :D

Also I have to say, after getting spoiled by certain games that are so wonderful about telling me where I left off or where exactly I need to go next that I get very angry at games that leave me hanging in a vast world and I'm just like... where do I go what was I even doing last. SO I GUESS I'm more likely to ragequit those and they fall into my never-to-be-finished limbo game category...

MWAHAHAHA. I have to admit you're the second person I've done that to now, hasn't gotten old yet.

The mods are amazing! Some of them are better quality than others, but mods are worth it alone just to get better color variety, more hair styles, armor, etc.

Here. Let's put this in visual terms, it's really easy.

I honestly don't think I could go back to vanilla DA:O at this point, I really don't. Not to mention I absolutely adore Roland/Rory and he's pretty much a fan content character since his role in game was really small beforehand. (He's in one origin and then you never see him again. It was pretty tragic really.)

XIII-2 even has a "Here's what happened last time" recap each time you start up the game! But typically I haven't accomplished much so I'm seeing content that was from ages ago! I... typically end up going to google for answers, so that I can actually get anywhere. Though I google games more than I'd like to admit (like that stupid water temple in Ocarina of Time...)
