Anonymous asked:

So, the SLARPG setting obviously shares a lot of the same flaws that real-life has, but did you still intend for it to be a better-than-reality type of world at its core? Like, basically, is the SLARPG setting the type of world that people should want to live in or is it just about the same as real life?

I ask this because I have a friend who said that he hated SLARPG's ending because basically, even though the game ended on a bombastic "save the world" battle, nothing really changed about the status quo afterwards and everyone still has to go back to work tomorrow to make rent for their capitalist overlords, so the world was not actually saved at all and nothing worth celebrating actually happened. In other words he believed it's better for the antagonists to destroy everything than for the world to return to its old tedium under late-stage capitalism.

I know this assessment is most likely wrong but I wanted to make sure just how wrong it was by getting it straight from the source. Thank you for your time.

I would definitely say that, at least with how I depicted it in SLARPG, Reverie is in a better state than the real world is. It’s certainly got many of the same problems and some areas where those problems are disturbingly apparent, but overall it’s a little more pleasant on average.

Regarding the ending: I mean, first of all, the end of SLARPG is not necessarily the end of the story of these characters. I think that should be obvious with how many blatant sequel hooks there are in the epilogue, but I would like to return to the setting someday. I’m remaining intentionally vague so as to not make any promises about future stories in a 4am Tumblr ask, but it should be pretty clear that the immediate conflicts have been settled for now, but there’s still work to be done, and there are still bigger threats out there. I just have no idea when I’ll follow up on those ideas because I take a long time to make anything and I was burnt out really bad for a few years there, and now I’m making a different game first.

But regardless of all that, I do not think β€œdid the protagonists overthrow capitalism by the end of the story Y/N” is a healthy way to engage with fiction and judge whether or not a story’s ending is satisfying.

The characters have to figure out how to live under capitalism because the story is drawing from my own life in the real world, and I have to figure out how to live under capitalism, because we’re not going to overthrow it in a week. There are things that have changed by the end of the story, but they’ve still gotta work and pay rent and shit because that’s how life works. They will also continue to work together to fight for a better world in the ways that they can, but that fight is never truly over, and they’ve gotta work with the imperfect world they’ve actually got rather than indulging in the fantasy of wiping the slate clean and starting the world over from scratch.

Jackie from Roaring Spirits waking up on a school morning trying to reach for her alarm clock, but she has to scooch over to the bed's edge to turn said alarm off, thus causing her to make a pose similar to Sol Badguy's j.D and therefore destroying her 5th alarm clock that week.
