Re: General Exalted Discussion Thread X: Playground Cosmic Principle
I actually was having a conversation about this with a German professor a few years back. Evidently while there are a multitude of ways to go about a conversation most people limit their dialogue to a few rote questions and responses. These so called communicative functions form the background of most conversations. However it is still just the backbone and thus limiting.

Re: General Exalted Discussion Thread X: Playground Cosmic Principle
You can say this about pretty much any subject matter. i.e. Mario would make a terrible video game, because of the huge variety of things you could do if it were a tabletop RPG instead. I mean, you can't even ask Luigi what his favorite bagel type is, but you could in a Mario RPG. You can't fashion a crude knife from the bones of slain Koopa and ritually mutilate yourself, but you could in a Mario RPG. You can't choose to light the Princess on fire with your fire-flower and sacrifice her to your dark botanical gods, but you could in a Mario RPG.
Exalted could make a fine video game. For example, who here would not play the Deathlord Dating Sim?

Re: General Exalted Discussion Thread X: Playground Cosmic Principle
Yep, definite Mass Effect reference then.
But I doubt we could actually make a Manual from Shepherd and Co. For one, most of the people in Mass Effect are already Solars. Or Dragon-Blooded if you have Bionics, cause Bionics have a focus on force and teamwork. Sorta. Bionics might be slightly Infernals instead but, hey these things are very open to interpretation.

Re: General Exalted Discussion Thread X: Playground Cosmic Principle
Nah, Mass Effect is a good example of how one can be amazing and epic while simply being a Heroic Mortal. Though, if there were exaltations available, they'd definitely have a good crop to chose from.

Re: General Exalted Discussion Thread X: Playground Cosmic Principle
Glorious Shotgun Princess. The thread was linked to from here not long ago. Personally, however, I prefer the fanfic website thingy. Skips the pages and pages of people talking about it.
The best part, howeveer, is Wuffles.
Note: I've never played Mass Effect.

The first page in the thread should have a bit of an index. Or you can go read Glorious Solar Princess on Fanfiction.net

Who wants to play an Exalted//TTGL freeform crossover game?
Hell, why limit it to one anime? Random anime characters falling into Creation.

Re: General Exalted Discussion Thread X: Playground Cosmic Principle
Well, I think endgame Asura is basically an Essence 10 Titan. But we can go pre-endgame.
(post-credits comic spoiler)
SpoilerAlternatively, the "870 million years later" version
could've somehow been transported to the Exalted world. Perhaps Yasha pulled him out of the way of the meteor, then the resulting impact caused a crack in reality to open up? It closed quickly, but before it did so, the eight plus Asura's family were pulled through...
...Also, I now have a hope that Shards has a sequel.Last edited by Hiro Protagonest; 2012-06-28 at 03:53 PM.

Question: does anyone else think that Red Dead Exalted would be an awesome shard?

Re: General Exalted Discussion Thread X: Playground Cosmic Principle
Assuming you ignore/change the fact that most of Creation seems to be controlled by jerks, they actually have quite a bit incommon. Simon is a Solar, Kamina is either a heroic Mortal or the Lunar mate(if the latter, the Exaltation goes to Nia), the Beastmen are Terrestrials, and Lord Genome is a Sidereal. The first act really maps out to Exalted. The Second is where things get trickier, though you can make a case that the Anti-spirals are more Bronze Factioners.

Re: General Exalted Discussion Thread X: Playground Cosmic Principle
Characters from anime would probably be limited to around the start of the series.
Mostly, this is because I hate writing fanfic. But I find the idea of various animes being crossed over into Exalted cool.

Re: General Exalted Discussion Thread X: Playground Cosmic Principle
Really, all I can think of now is plopping Argus, Yasha, and Asura in Exalted, and watching the awesome.
Which character were you thinking of dropping into Creation, exactly? And from when?He fears his fate too much, and his reward is small, who will not put it to the touch, to win or lose it all.

Re: General Exalted Discussion Thread X: Playground Cosmic Principle
Augus.
You know, I have a theory about him. Sure, his relentless pursuit of the things he wants is in tune with his Mantra Affinity, Greed, but his talk about how the Great Rebirth is silly, and his final words of "he who stands in the end... is rightous" makes me think that Augus was wiser than them all.Avatar of George the Dragon Slayer, from the upcoming Indivisible!

Augus was a total bro.
I hated him. Yes, he was entertaining. And if he weren't so psychotically violent, I could enjoy his bro-dom. But he was. So I hated him.

Re: General Exalted Discussion Thread X: Playground Cosmic Principle
Even though Shards is about to drop, anyone interested in some vanilla Exalted? My game of three and a half years is going to be looking for some new players and a Co-Storyteller.
