Brainstorming!

The Welcome to Dreamwidth edition!

The usual rundown applies here- brainstorming for plots and events goes within, game-wide events have to be approved by the admin team no matter what babble goes on inside this post, and I'll update this handy list over here with anything new that might pop up in the OCD!

General Ideas!

For the vague stuff! The 'I had this notion that I would like to develop into an actual something!' stuff!

So I halfway feel like we've already done something like this in the past, but I can't for the life of me remember for sure.

ANYWAY. I was thinking a weird video game glitch random event might be fun. And admittedly, I am mostly thinking about Fallout 4 and Skyrim type glitches for this and it's thatsweirdright's fault, but like . . . objects randomly clipping through each other with no adverse reaction whatsoever, or NPCs inexplicably just appearing on rooftops and going about their business like nothing's wrong. Or that one NPC where every time you approach them it triggers the exact same line of dialogue. Wacky physics engine goofs, people just partially not rendering or disappearing from the scene entirely while the scene continues on as planned, accidentally going out of bounds for the scene so you're just running around in blank space, things like that. Or one of my Fallout 4 favorites: when you're trying to have a Serious Conversation with a companion and two NPCs just spawn in the background and start having a big ol' fight.

This would probably be something where there would have to be a preset list of possible glitches, but potential for hilarity abounds.

OH OH I THOUGHT OF A SPECIFIC ONE: that one task that you'd really like to finish, but you can't because the ONE THING YOU NEED TO COMPLETE IT IS BUGGED AND REFUSES TO SPAWN SAPDOFIUALS;DKFJAL;SK I'm not bitter.
