you seem to hate lrp so much, why? on the ‘summarize lrp in 4 words’ post, you said something like ‘CLICK UNTIL HORIZONTAL HURR DURR’ when LRP isn’t really like that.
murderbone is still kinda frowned upon, unless you do it creatively/theres a gimmick involved. most people mind their own business.
on lrp, theres the antags, the validhunters, and the people who just want to play the game without doing some homo-erotic roleplay with fake stutters and tragic backstories. science people make circuits, chemists usually just make meth and shit, chef and bartender also just do their own shit. if you play science, LRP is great. medical gets boring though. cargo is fun, since you can turn into your own kingdom, but theres a miasma farm trend going on rn . engineering is just engineering, fixing broken shit and doing cool atmos stuff. bartender/cook is fun, cus u get to interact with ppl. I’ve actually seen illegal QMs selling drugs with the chemist and using mulebots to smuggle drugs and even criminals. people on LRP are more creative with their job. on MRP, you can’t do cool shit (make swag mech or give meth to assistants) without it being called powergaming or self antag. Not 100% sure, but im pretty sure that if cargo orders guns to make declare themselves a private sector of the station. (1776 style) If you really just wanna do your job and play the game, turn off antags and play your job, and cool shit will probably just naturally happen. or, play assistant and kill antags on the daily, then salt when you die. its the assistant way. if you’re daring enough to play security, you can execute antags and laugh when they cry about how unrobust you are (i do this, but im usually the antag in this situation ) playing HOP and killing them valids who rush caps office, or being a valid who rushes caps office (like me )
One of the funnest things on LRP is mining. NOBODY cares if u rush bubblegum or ash drake or something because of ‘powergaming’
getting augs because the default EVA suits are aids (take up backpack space and also they are 2 parts, don’t think you can attach a jetpack to them either) is apparently powergaming (this ban was eventually withdrawn)
either way, I really don’t like MRP due to the lack of freedom you have because ‘it’s not something someone would do in real life’.
yeah, okay, a syndicate spy wouldn’t kill the captain just to cause a coup and assume control of the station, that’s not a valid reason to kill the captain.
yeah, okay, a syndicate traitor sent to kill people and steal shit from the ‘evil corporate’ rival would get in trouble for destroying the state of the art rival station by flawlessly sabotaging their engine.
more rp =/= more fun
