Alright.
So you've all waited this week for the update of Archaic Twilight; and I am here to give it to you. I originally intended on updating something about the RPG, a little juicy tidbit about the forum's authentic prototype battle system... however, I have decided against so. While talking and discussing my RPG history with my friend, I have chosen to tell you about the real meaning behind this new RPG. More or less something more insightful about the meaning behind the next version. So are you ready? Below the posted line will be spoilers regarding the forum's Storyline which I had intended to hold until the forum's unveiling.
---------Spoiler Line----------------------------------------------------
I have been through a LOT with RPGs, more so than some of you realize. One or two might fully understand this obsession of mine, however RPGs have been there for me since I was in 6th grade, ever since I first joined a Megaman RPG that is STILL running. Ever since then, I've been through many life experiences, however RPGs have ALWAYS been there for me, regardless of my situation. Whether I was happy, creative, depressed, hyper, I was almost always doing something with RPGs. It all started with Infi.net, and has only expanded since then.
Everytime, with every new RPG, I've tried to create something REVOLUTIONARY, something SPECTACULAR, something that will wow the crowd and try and keep them enertained with what I've created. Infact, I spent 2 years on the first version of AT, I migrated through about 5 different forums for AT, and it changed SO much, and in the end I trashed nearly everything I had designed. What am I left with? about 50 Word Documents of various sytems of each version. Because each project I had taken wasn't what I wanted, hadn't acheived the heights I intended, or ended up boring me, I always trashed them and moved onto the next project. And in that whole process, I forgot the meaning in RPGs; to have fun with friends and to explore your own creativity.
And through the realization of this, I finally come to the conclusion of this new RPG. This may be the reimagining of Archaic Twilight, however really, it's something else entirely; a collection of my memories.
Momoko, an old staff member of Infi.net that I'm sure many of you are familiar with had come to me, and basically smacked me for giving up another project. We talked a bit about what was going on, and thus the new AT was created. An entirely new storyline was created that detailed perfectly to the fitting of this new version. Each and every system is a refurbished and redesigned version of my old RPGs; even the universe the RPG is based in is a reflection of every RPG up until this point. Worlds of Infi.net, Archaic Twilight, worlds of RPGs that I never even made forums of!
The RPG is set in a universe that is comprised of random fragments of memories and dreams, each area in the RPG something entirely different. Peaceful meadows to haunted manors, castles of doomsday prophecies to the very River of Death. I won't go too far into the setting of the RPG as it is fully interwoven with the Plotline that has been created... The RPG is a collection of my most precious memories, where people can share their heart and memories to further expand and enhance the forum.
This Archaic Twilight, while it is reimagining of the first version, it is something entirely different at the same time.
I hope now you all understand my purpose. And of course, I look forward to seeing you all on the forum in June!
and that's the conclusion. See ya next time!
