I think I could go either way with regard to a new game being set up right away or not! I understand wanting to focus on one aspect of the roleplay at a time and I think it's important to do so as we wouldn't want to spread ourselves too thin. With that being said, I think that having the option to roleplay in another universe would be nice but also if it's implemented further down the line that's cool too. When I originally brought up the idea, I just wasn't sure if there were any ideas for TNW going forward and figured that could be a backup option.
Even if we did make a new game, it definitely doesn't have to be as complex or lore-heavy as TNW and could have a simpler plot as not to take away from TNW. I do think that if there's enough interest for a side game then I don't see why it couldn't be explored, especially if it's member-led so there's no pressure on staff or anything. Sometimes I have OCs that might not translate well into TNW's universe, for example, so that could be another place where folks could write and experiment with a new concept. And hey, I mean, if that gets the site more posts then that's not a bad thing! What I'm basically saying that, if there's an "other rp" game that garners enough interest, then having the option for a backboard and an on-site spotlight would be cool!! I know that the "other roleplay" board and old-school style threads with sign-ups/single rp threads are still a thing but I do feel like those die out quicker because of the lack of a board.
I think the problem with TNW for years (I remember this personally being a complaint of mine and several others back in like... 2018-19) was that there was no progression civilization-wise and I think that introducing electricity is the plot that the game needs as an ultimate game-changer so!! I'm definitely on board with that. I personally don't think I'm in a position to lead atm but I'm staring super hard at this plot!
