welcome to the modern era of entertainment where everything has been done and no good original ideas can exist, part of why there are so many reboots/sequels now days

>>53719703
I feel like I should know this anime girl, even though she's very generic-looking
>>
>>53719780
The last true original idea was the space opera, and thats since been done to death.

There is no "Final frontier" so far as media goes anymore. Its now about what you do with whats available.

>>53719703
this is why all may campaign ideas start with
>it's like X mixed with Y

originality is overrated anyway, specially on RPGs. Best villain I ever had was just copying sarevok from bg 1.

>>53720246
That's pretty much right. The "originality doesn't exist thing" is kind of a meme. Sure everything's been done before, but at least you can do your own take on an existing concept and it will still be relatively unique.
>>
>>53719780

What is the absolute worst is people who think they're clever or knowledgeable by drawing comparisons.

OH SO YOUR IDEA IS BASICALLY X AND Y.

Yeah thanks for the insight, fuck off.
