Wasn't sure what thread to ask this in, but I've been wanting to ask. When you can't find a traditional gaming group anywhere IRL, where do you guys go for your roleplaying fix? I used to futz about with MMO RP, but I find myself hating most MMOs that I play lately.

I play a heavily modded skyrim. Sometimes it's more fun than any actual group I'm in.
MMOs never satisfy. They always lure you with sweet promises but after a couple hours it becomes painfully apparent how shallow the RP elements are. There's RP servers but...it's akin to playing pretend in a schoolyard where everyone has a different idea of what the rules are.

Actually, I've been rping on wow for a couple weeks now, and it's not bad. Of course, it's not as in depth or immersive as a single player modded rpg or a tabletop rpg, but from a character interaction standpoint it does the trick.

Threshold RPG was pretty aright, I prefer discord now - join a few channels related to the kinds of RPGs, play pickup games with vetted folks, if it don't turn out well then nothing really is lost.

I might try that. Thanks.

I tried to get back into WoW rp, but the game itself just isn't worth the sub.

I've been thinking of going back to Oblivion, I'm not sure why, but I always get bored in Skyrim

Get some recruits from online, hit up Roll20

I continue designing and developing assets and modules for a game I'll never get to play.
Just play online like roll 20 or discord.

Nigga what server are you on that doesn't have edgelord RP or ERP for it's only options? Everything I see is either "This is my Orc Killgore Murderaxe, he has an axe made out of baby spines that he killed during the Siege of Orgrimmar" or "This is my Belf, she has KK cup boobs and a horsedick"

> Solo TTRPG
I grab a shit ton of tables and books and begin mapping stuff down and basically play D&D or Pathfinder: Monster Hunter edition.
> Heavily Modded STALKER, Skyrim, or Fallout
I tend to go for survivalist mods and stuff so I could at least pretend I'm a ranger that gets constantly confused for being the chosen one or some shit.

Hasn't ever really happened, but when I've look for rp elsewhere it's been a good single player rpg, an mmo rp server or even some forum based stuff.
Oh.
And I come here to rp as a pants shittingly retarded anon on /v/.
Somehow, I just fell into the role.
There's thousands of others there who must be doing it too.
