Mass Effect Forum RPG, interest?

Post by Turtle »

I wanted to get back into running RPGs and figured a casual forum based game based on a well known video game property would be interesting, and it's been a while since I've run a scifi game.

I'm currently really into the Mass Effect universe, so why not?

Anyone want to participate in a play by post, or if we can organize times, a game over google wave or ventrilo?

I'll be using the D6 system, a classic system that was used in the old West End Star Wars RPGs.

I will say I am interested and I would be available on Google Wave. I read the first Mass Effect book but not the 2nd.

Just to toss a thought into the mix but would it be interesting to have one of the group play the main villain of the story instead of the GM handling those duties?

I prefer a more classic RPG GM style where I control all antagonists, this way I can weave a more coherent story.

Sadly, doesn't look like there's much interest in this. :(

It's the holidays and people have their hands full. Why not wait until a week or two into January and see if people are interested. :o) I think it's an interesting idea.

That's quite interesting. Because of that I want to play ME again.

While it sounds interesting, I doubt a time difference of 15 hours on my end can make it work :doh:
