The Officially Unofficial Weekly Discussion #73: Do you log on with a plan?


Recommended Posts

With 1,000 character slots and tons of content - do you log on with a plan?

 

Do you log on knowing which character you will play and what you will do?

 

Do you just see what is going on and join in?

Eh. I'm probably sounding like a broken record, but it's generally RP-based.

 

Otherwise... *shrug* Creating a new character. Picking someone at random. Getting a wild hair to get people (say) in the teens to the 20s, or the nearest 5-level (43 to 45, for instance.) Whatever I feel like that particular moment.

Normally, I play the newer characters to get them finished up and move them around to their dayjobs.  Down to four chars that don't have that done.

 

Otherwise, it's what char do I want to play?  I have some old favorites that I sometimes run around with, sometimes it brushing the dust off one that deserves a second look.

 

Sometimes, I'll just think "I haven't played this one in ages, do I still need it?"  and I'll strip it, then delete.  (Yea, I could just leave it there, but not my style)

Only if you let the players make meaningful decisions.  Just start every adventure with the characters captured, locked in a cell, with only the items you want them to have and only the way out you want them to have.  EVERY adventure

If I'm leveling a character for which I've developed an obsession, or I've finished planning out a respec for a character.  Otherwise, I just go with my gut.

Get busy living... or get busy dying.  That's goddamn right.

I'm a professional planner by trade (even have a certificate and all, planning.org), so I "try" to avoid having a plan when I boot up something to play. That said I have an idea what I want to play tonight at least for a bit assuming the toddler falls asleep soon.

mosquitos do kill the most people every  year

The problem was the party did not have enough dex to land a hit

...

Eventually, all were drained of blood.

The problem with these Tahiti trolls is you cut off one and two others take their place.

Depends a bit on my mood, but usually one of the following:

 

- Working on Incarnates for one of my 50s 

- Levelling a toon to 50 

- Working on a new concept

 

When I am online, I may then jump to another alt to do a TF or other team-up that comes up in the LFG channel.
