In all honesty I'm tired of seeing the same medieval, futuristic sci-fi and post-apocalyptic settings for most of the new RPs that appear here. This is why I am yet to actually join one - I can't stand how samey it all is.
Let's brainstorm ideas for new settings for future RPs.
Timeless settings - places in the wild, untouched forever by construction and technology, where era is irrelevant?
Alternate present - set in the same time as the present, but a different version of this world with different laws and cultures?
That's all I can think of right now. But please, we need new settings. Create different versions of timeless ( wilderness, other planets ) or alternate present ( fantasy creatures or different politically laid-out Earth ).
Anyone else got an idea? I'd be willing to join a RP as long as it has an original setting.

| Mm, I like alternate history. The butterfly effect has always been an eye-catcher for me. That, and the possible 'what ifs'. |

| I've got an alternate-history decopunk New York free-roam RP that's been on the backburner for a while... and I've also got a completed Aztec-inspired Fantasy RP/ISRP that nobody was interested in. If you want, I can dig up the latter or finish the former. |

I was speaking to someone in Pick's collab yesterday about making a roleplay where humans don't exist, and the animals are intelligent enough to speak and have Kingdoms, and no, they don't resemble humans in body form, and ye.
That seems a bit more fantasy though. |

I've always wanted to make a colonial RP. Oh, better yet, a Time 'Sheen RP. |

"I've always wanted to make a colonial RP."
That would be pretty cool.
I've also always wanted to participate in an RP that takes place sometime in the 20th century, but most RPs that do take place in this century have less to do with culture and society and more to do with wars and global issues. |

"Alternate present"
So it's basically a parallel universe from the multiverse theory, in which every time a decision is made or something happens that could've been prevented, a new universe is formed. |

^ It depends how you look at it. If you want to go for a Steins;Gate-esque roleplay I don't have a problem, but there are other possibilities. Such as a finite number of universes - there are two worlds that cannot be switched between until something happens, and they are completely separate and not at all linked ( unless some odd godly event happened at the beginning of time? ).

I should probably make it clear that what I'm asking for in this thread are extensions of timeless or alternate. Like, I can name a type of timeless ( wilderness ) but I can't think of anything else.
Please let me leech off your imagination. '-'
