How does everyone feel about this idea?
I had an idea earlier, and that is simply:
Megaman RP.
Tell me how you feel from those two words, because I think it might turn out kinda neat. Tell me if you think the idea is horrible, you think it's great, it's already been done(?), etc.

Re: How does everyone feel about this idea?
I've been into megaman classic as of late, haha.
It won't be horrible as long as it doesn't turn out like the Chao RPs here.

^So much this.
This has been done before, but it flopped pretty hard, the largest only getting to 8 pages before petering out.

Depends who makes it. Certainly I don't think most roleplayers on this site would make a good one.

Re: How does everyone feel about this idea?
I think you'd be best suited either creating original characters that have their own stories within the Mega Man universe where the canon cast is a supporting cast or only encountered periodically; or you use canon characters that weren't given much character development in-game such as the Robot Masters so that you have room to develop them yourself, although I suggest when creating a personality for a Master, you draw from their ability or design theme.
Because I'll guarantee you that using people like Mega Man and Doctor Wily is going to make the RP mundane and it will quickly fizzle. I think it best you keep the main characters out of the picture as much as possible so that your characters avoid being cliche. Without the main cast involved there will be no one to compare to.
In any case, you may even get me involved with a good MM RP. If you're talking about other series you can still apply my comments. In fact, if you are at a loss for how to frame your RP, feel free to PM me if you need assistance with something.

Re: How does everyone feel about this idea?
Thanks for the input, everyone. I feel like it IS a good idea, but... I'm still unsure of what kind of story we'd have. Idunno. Feel free to spread ideas.

Re: How does everyone feel about this idea?
Mabey 13 people join, and each one makes a character, 8 make Robot Masters, 1 makes a Hero similar to Megaman, 1 make a Villain like Dr Wily and 3 for the Wily Castle bosses (like Copy Robot and The Yellow Devil)
Im back, it feels good...
and guess what? i still got...

Re: How does everyone feel about this idea?
^ Not only do we not have 13 people, it means that the RP would be centered around one person's character and the rest would just sit in the background for most of the roleplay.

Re: How does everyone feel about this idea?
It is a world of research and innovation, ideas and exploration. World strife has been eliminated, for countries of old have long since set aside their differences and joined the WG (World Government) in order to adopt the environmental safety and public safety protocols that have been made standard by installation of Quality Control drones--PoliceBots--in every city that are deployed by humans from the comfort of Security Towers. These PoliceBots, nonlethal machines that specialize in quick captures, were built because of the surge of Robot Master technology, powerful humanoids with AI that closely mimics the neurology of human beings. PoliceBots adopt this AI, PoliceBot officers being the Robot Masters of law enforcement, and just as diverse. No longer content to depend on the Blue Bomber or the creations of Doctor Light to protect them from renegade scientists, humans have designed the PoliceBots to take their place. But some of these PoliceBot officers seem to have other plans, and the mysterious programming that forces them to go rogue does not seem to have a known origin. Scientists have determined this reprogramming is happening remotely. Thus, every robot with Master AI is under duress, because of how easily "influenced" they are. Only the robots that forfeit their sovereignty to human command are left alone, thus sparking a debate on if the AI is advanced enough to give robots personal discretion, pitting people and robots that support order vs. people and robots that want to advance other robots to citizen status.
In a world where the old fight of Mega vs. Wily is growing increasingly irrelevant, what are our canon heroes to do but choose a side or forgo both.
This is an alternate reality where the X series does not occur. My idea would support both original and canon characters while keeping them equally relevant and important.
If this interests anyone, I'd be happy to make the RP. The OP would be more elaborate of course. It isn't exactly game canon, but too much canon makes for a going through the motions RP.

Re: How does everyone feel about this idea?
^ I like it, but I was a BIT confused about the robot's programming and how they are being controlled. They sound pretty similar to Reploids in any case, so I assume this is just a world where someone other than Dr. Light created that technology and didn't do all the testing that Light did. But really, it sounds great.

Re: How does everyone feel about this idea?
We'll consider it a first draft. I'm going to rewrite it to see if I can iron out some confusing aspects of the premise. I did type this like a loose canon before I took care of some errands, and I'm seeing more confusing parts in addition to what confused you. But yes, it's similar to Reploids because it's something of a what-if scenario--at least for now.
I'll submit it here before making a thread to see if it sounds more clear.

Good idea. Also, remember to think about what kind of characters people will have.

Gotcha. I'm putting something much more polished together as we speak.

I guess so, but it might make a good fangame similar to Cathode Raybots. *Puts on Fangaming Hat*JmTsHaW wrote:^ Not only do we not have 13 people, it means that the RP would be centered around one person's character and the rest would just sit in the background for most of the roleplay.

Draft 2:
I still am not entirely happy with this. Any input? I think I need to shrink the scope.

Re: How does everyone feel about this idea?
Yeah, that would work. And I'm also thinking we need to elaborate on the kind of weapons/technology characters can have.
Re: How does everyone feel about this idea?
Anyone wanting a robot master in the DWN. series (and possibly cossack's robots) would need to specify why they're functioning after their canon game. The DLN/DRN. robot masters are evidently rebuilt, so it wouldn't be a problem for them. (Granted, most of this post does rely on Super Adventure Rockman logic.)
It would be best if all character roles were sorted out prior to the RP starting, just so we can avoid people joining in the most random of times. If I were to play a canon robot master, it would probably be Elecman considering he's my favourite. But I can also go with Iceman or create an OC if needed to.
