New Thread for shit talking NWN RP Servers and it's players like POTM, Arelith, TDN.

I feed off of the gossip and hatred.

The people who play on these servers are already maladjusted weirdos. The people who play on these servers and post on 4chan are a worse breed.
The type of person who plays on these servers, posts on 4chan, and then gets into fucking roleplaying server drama and then posts about it on 4chan is basically sitting at the peak of autistic retard and inherently adds an unspoken detail to any drama they're a part of. No matter how much they'll try and smear other people involved or act like they did nothing wrong, they're the kind of person who cries about roleplaying server drama on 4chan. Any testimony they can give can be safely thrown out on account.

>>3490060
You sure are a dramawhore since you picked one of the worst offenders as the OP image.
>>
>>3491066
This is quite a strange statement. My experience of playing on these servers in the 00s was that they were much more well adjusted than any average current day user in any community. There were always some weird people and some drama, but there were also normal people, with families, or that got married and started families with each other. I really can't imagine how any of those people would somehow be worse than you or the average schizo in other current day communities.
>>
>>3492307
You mean "just released" again, after several times, over the last 6 years. They hype themselves up but their weird ideas is going to doom them.
>>
>>3492672

They'll keep doing this because the discord hype is the point of the pw instead of the pw itself.
>>
Can't wait for you to lose your RDD beslyth you faggot!
>>
>>3492678
Dear god, you're right. That and over-decorating areas with no substance of world building or RP gameplay.
>>
>>3491066
That's not a very nice thing to say, my guy. I believe most of the playerbase have relatively ordinary lives and normal. Maybe even a house, a spouse and kids.

I still play on the RP servers from time to time; maybe mostly because I miss the haydays of NWN in the 00s and wish to reminisce of the good times that were had.

I dearly miss 3kds and TWI with their fantastic communities.

It's not even good. Even the area design you get bored of after a while.
>>
>>3493208

This is a cope marketing ploy btw, they can't even hit their 60 slot limit and will continue to lower it.

It's already dropped below one (1x) Arelith instance. Time for another 2 years in development, I think!
>>
>>3493740
You can't really fix it. NWN was made to be efficient in multiplayer in ways that no other game is. The problem is that they focus 90% of their development working against the grain and taxing the server in ways it was never built for. Just by brute-forcing their overly decorated areas in lieu of actual worldbuilding, roleplaying, and gameplay.
>>
>>3493255

Interested in this also, I tried Arelith but it feels more like an MMO than an RP thing.

Haze seems interesting but PVE kills being permadeath is retarded, but maybe it has some systems I don't know about that makes this more bearable.
>>
>>3493776
Permadeath isn't bad, but the way Haze does it is.
>>
>>3493848

Agree, I like permadeath, I just don't want a character's story to end with a meaningless orc mob critting him in static PVE. It is just a waste of time unless I'm missing something.

Permadeath in DM'd events or at the hands of a player is good. Do you have any recommendations?

Sorry your 10 years in production masterpiece is ALREADY struggling to match a single Arelith sub-server, maybe a few more mountains will fix it
>>
>>3493895
how else would perma death work? you know you can kill off your own characters on arelith, correct? it happens all the time, it just gives you the choice if it makes sense for your character's development or someone might like your character's rp so much that they reward you for it. arelith has problems, but i like how hands off dms with those sorts of things

How about they just implement D&D rules for a change? That would unironically be a good start.
>>
>>3494525
And what would your point be? Ostensibly the server designers claim that they want to appeal to people with personal tastes. If they have issues then that would also end up in their own personal problems. Risenholm crumbled under its own hubris as well. First it got the big Arelith push that Dragon's Neck is getting, because Arelith players are bored, then they left back to Arelith after a few months. All personal problems.

Cope, arelith already won. TDN has gone offline already.
>>3498543
Completely correct, pointless hype servers whose entire goal is to cut a slice of the arelith pie always end up dead.
>>
>>3498549
You say this as if the guys back in the day that would have called themselves chads today were any better. They were the worst and caused multiple rounds of server mutinies. The ones that survived were the ones that often accidentally fell into the hands of adults, or at least someone so far autistically detached that they keep the server going no matter what. Another example I remember was when a server ended up in the hands of a single mom and it was the worst, most stifling admin you can imagine despite trying to please everybody, which just led to stagnation. You could always make your own, of course, but that would require effort and for people to actually want to hang around you.
>>
>>3499720
Most people into escapism tend to be bitter and useless so it's not surprising a lot of them would end up as power trips instead of trying to make something that actually benefits people and their enjoyment of something.
I did run on some pretty cool PW back in the day but it was mostly a piece of stand alone code that reset all the areas and people pretty much did what they wanted, which surprisingly there led to some decent RP as it was claimed to be enforced on the surface, but not really enforced.

That inspired me to write a whole PW with battling good vs. evil mirror worlds for players and WOW style reputation grinding, even working dopplegangers of which I could clone a player from any server down to the nasty ERP letters in his pocketses but I lost the code when I became bitter and useless.

I feel you anon. It doesn't help that no one ever wrote actual matchmaking features or include comms for RP MP games.
>>
>>3499720
>>3499800
Probably the worst admins I've ever experienced was one that called everyone else stupid all the time, and was a huge Warhammer nerd. He tried dating a girl on the server at the time in exchange for favors, and she was a lot younger, so it got weird. The other was a porn addicted IT guy that got people to donate to his water cooled mega PC with multiple graphics cards as the server machine that he apparently needed. He was also a douchebag that saw the server as his home, and players as strangers that were guests to his party, so he could just ignore them and tell them to leave if they didn't like it. The position of server admin always attracts narcissists.
>>
>>3499720
>ended up in the hands of a single mom
another proverbial canker of the nwn community
it's a really simple equation - well adjusted people aren't drawn to wasting hours upon hours of their lives playing make-believe
an even fewer percent of those people are drawn to moderating said breeding pits
at this point, the only way to run a healthy nwn server is by performing literal background checks lmao
>>
>>3499865
>well adjusted people aren't drawn to wasting hours upon hours of their lives playing make-believe
But they are. Well-adjusted people waste their life on a multitude of things, you could focus on the party going people that can't answer a Youtuber's basic questions, or the football hooligans, or theater enjoyers, larpers, and video game role-players. Focus on any single one of them and make some odd claim about normal people. In the end normal well-adjusted people waste their lives on all sorts of make-believe and you better hope you're not wasting it on daytime television.
Single moms are particularly egregious because they don't have the free time to be wasting like that and actually serve the people they're claiming to. They're focused on their kids, their job or getting welfare, and now they're also splitting the time they have left between relaxing/entertainment and managing a server and its continued development.
>>
>>3499874
>But they are
No. You equate escapism with playing make believe. Well adjusted people aren't generally drawn to dnd, let alone playing a bootleg version of it in a 20 year old engine of a somewhat obscure CRPG
You really don't need a deep philosophical thinking and analysis to determine that online rp communities in general (second life, roblox, VRchat, habbo hotel etc etc etc) are ripe with adult weirdos. It's a self evident fact at this point
>>
>>3499881
>Well adjusted people aren't generally drawn to dnd, let alone playing a bootleg version of it in a 20 year old engine of a somewhat obscure CRPG
Yes, they are. You are simply mythologizing the well adjusted person to have only certain kinds of hobbies that you can't fathom having degenerate aspects. Everybody has vices and engages in make-believe, escapism being a kind of make-believe, too. You want to say that people role-playing in old video games is unhealthy or something, just like some would say about anything else, including larp, clubbing, booktok, furry conventions, anime, sports, binge television, drinking, or anything else that has absolutely been criticized along the same lines. Your boner of bitterness is clouding your better judgement and ability to reason about this. I don't know what happened, but clearly someone on NWN got under your skin and hurt you terribly.
>>
>>3499881
You can find psychos in every online community in existence, NWN is no exception but neither is it a particularly drastic example. Most of the dramas in the RP community takes place in the d*scords, you're unlikely to be affected by it if you just do your own thing in the game. There's nothing wrong in writing a collaborative story with the bros if that's what you enjoy.
>>
>>3499884
Nah. I'm fairly certain that if someone is to perform an actual statistical analysis, they'd find rampant prescription drug/substance abuse in these online communities, not to mention the prevalence of diagnosed mental illness
I'm sure your average trucker or barista is far more well adjusted, both mentally and physically, than IT discord they/them ghoul erping on second life or nwn.
Your attempt to both normalize and correlate these basic observations is both laughable and sad - especially the latter because it tells me you find yourself at home among these people and so these observations call you out in specific
>>
>>3499885
>You can find psychos in every online community in existence
No shit sherlock, but we're discussing averages here
I'm sure you're far more likely to unearth a creep in these rp communities than in say - cs fucking go or your latest call of goyslop shooter

Most of them just aren't schizos like you are. The fact you exist isn't evidence of something dramatically different with any other form of vice, escapism, make-believe, or hobby.

It's genuinely obvious that you tried to run a failed pw that would have been oh so revolutionary if you hadn't lost the code, got mogged by other servers and were left bag holding a wasteland and now you enter every nwn thread to scream about how everyone who plays this is an insane retard because they must be for ignoring your magnum opus.

>more failed projection

People still play this? I thought it'd be dead AF as by now, last I checked years ago it was all ERP servers with 10 people on max.
>>
>>3500102

Yet here you are spending your time bitching and moaning in threads trying to convince everyone that people that play this game are mentally disturbed. The funniest part is that you're completely unaware that you're only convincing people that you're off your meds and need help.

Hard caps are never comfy, that's just cope. There is no server that has hard so-called "anti powergaming" rules and restrictions that can ever be described as truly fun or comfy. It's more like an abusive relationship where you try to eke out an existence and tell yourself it could be worse.
