This is something I'll be editing as I go. But if there's one takeaway I'd like to leave behind for anyone who's casually browsing:
- I absolutely adore cooperative world building. Nothing is quite like two people agreeing on a vague concept, then playing out a world that's their own unique little thing.
- Given that this is an 18+ website with the content to match, I will say that it's important to set the tone of the roleplay early. Personally, I am perfectly fine with there being no smut at all, but smut with strong plot to back it, or just a strong story with smutty elements sprinkled in here and there, are all very appealing to me. It's just something we need to hash out before we start.
- GMing - I've seen discussions go back and forth on this. Some people adore having harem-style stories with themselves as the main characters, others are happy writing those out for those lucky individuals. Others aren't as big a fan of them for valid reasons (it does take extra effort to do). I'm happy with either side of the spectrum, though I've found that if both players take turns writing extra characters in addition to their main viewpoint characters, it tends to spice things up quite nicely and keeps things from getting stale. Just my two cents there.
- GMing with systems - more to follow on this. But a homebrew system based around a unique idea discussed between two players is something I'm mulling over. It does require a lot of work for the GM (likely me), but it could lead to a rather unique story of one character interacting with a living world.
Definitely will be adding to this over time (slowly, anyhow)...
