  2. “Darkspawn” no longer has meaning or punch

      Grouping magic along good/evil is valuable and is not the reason “darkspawn” has no oomph. Darkspawn just doesn’t really mean anything and just implies “you’re not from the light.” If the server leaned fully into the light vs dark aesthetic it would be evocative (maybe even getting the people going), but since lots of lore does not reinforce bad guys being BORN FROM THE DARK AND HIDDEN FROM LIGHT, calling someone “darkspawn” loses any punch it could have had. Instead it becomes a simple buzzword with nothing for the mind to latch onto other than “necrodrazifrostieghoulmysticbloodmage”. (I understand that all dark magics have edgy grimdark background lore that explains why the existence of the lore is a massively destabilizing affront to the fabric of reality). It’s simply a bad catchall. 
       

      Evildoer (or better yet, villain) and it’s derivatives are more hard-hitting in my mind because you are accusing someone of literally enacting evil (which dark magic pieces lean into far more than causing darkness). Even if it’s cheesy and moustache-twirly it says something concrete.

      Viewing the various magics and creatures from the lenses of "light vs dark" feels like the quickest way to make them seem hallow and without nuance.

       

      And let's not act like the "Light" magics' are infact entirely morally good

       

      They each have their own wildly different stories, themes and cultures, They are -Tools- to be used by anyone.

       

      Attempting to fit them in a binary of good/bad is how we get people trying to put the outright and publically sadistic and cannibalistic Witches with no redeeming qualities, in the same group with the dragons that follow a pact to defend humanity and that would also wish to murder said witches on the spot.

       

      They are all weird and they all share the same world and used by vastly different people, if we want an actually accurate name for all of these 'darkspawns' then it would be "Illegal magics", because that's actually what decides what a 'Darkspawn' is

      I hate the word, it's too lengthy, Dragon Age, doesn't really make sense for a lot of spooks. We need a new one, something with character, like shaitans or.. goobers

      @IslamadonI'd argue that is taking the least charitable interpretation of how those playergroups are engaging in roleplay. You are upset that Balian =/= Constantinople, but Balian == Venice which is incredibly different from ye ol' regular Medieval European-influenced entity. You are also mistaken about your claim about Aaun.

    4. Islamadon

      Islamadon

      @Ibn KhaldunMy opinion is written from the perspective of an outsider who does not actively engage with these player groups beyond what I see on the streets. It FEELS like there's nothing going for any of these countries, as an outsider, because they all FEEL the same. I'm less "upset" and more bummed that it does not FEEL like they are meeting full potential or taking the steps to carve a unique niche. I've maintained this opinion since last map BTW, when Balian was actively trying to do Constantinople but hardly did anything Byzantine beyond a name or two. I'm also not trashing Balian, I've nothing against the players or the country itself.

  15. why don't nexus shills advocate an LOTC modpack instead?

      @ScubaDo not beg for forgiveness, especially on the behalf of another man. The ability to withhold forgiveness or bestow it is a great power, one which we must not let control us. We do not value forgiveness from a fiend like itdontmatta.

      @IslamadonWrong, actually. The average server count is about 100 - hence, you just need 1 person in your town on average. Or: 2 for 12 hours a day, 4 for 6 hours a day, 8 for 3 hours a day.

      If you don't have like a few guys rping in your place for a few hours a day you don't need a city.
