  2. *See.
  3. *Here's the thing.
  4. *Before he came in and started taking control.
  5. *People were fine with it being an ARG.
  6. *There was puzzles and interactivity with the characters.
  7. *The players could actually somewhat choose what happens in the story.
  8. *And then he comes in.
  9. *And the format changes drastically.
  10. *Puzzles are gone.
  11. *Interactivity is almost completely nullified.
  12. *And all the ARG elements I wanted to apply were either turned down or never gotten to.
  13.    Murdoc     says:
  14. *Yes.
  15.    2D     says:
  16. *You were fine with the two blogs thing when Cade suggested it.
  17.    Murdoc     says:
  18. *...
  19. *I don't recall Cade suggesting it.
  20.    2D     says:
  21. *...
  22. *Cade DID suggest it.
  23. *He suggested Isaac having his own blog at some point.
  24. *That blog being for the darkness.
  25.    Murdoc     says:
  26. *Because it made sense back then.
  27.    2D     says:
  28. *And then people would side with Isaac/darkness and Devon/light.
  29.    Murdoc     says:
  30. *When it was still an ARG, and Isaac still had the personality he had.
  31. *It would've made sense for him.
  32.    2D     says:
  33. *His personality never changed.
  34.    Murdoc     says:
  35. *However.
  36.    2D     says:
  37. *The character himself.
  38. *Never changed.
  39. *He was still the same Isaac.
  40. *And he was still opposing Devon.
  41. *Was still going to betray him at some point.
  42. *So why did it not make sense for HIM to have a blog?
  43.    Murdoc     says:
  44. *Because the way Leo described it, the blog would be for Katy, whom was apparently going to be with the /original/ S-oh shit.
  45. *Oh shit.
  46. *Oh shit.
  47. *Does Mugen know it's over?
  48.    2D     says:
  49. *...
  50. *Dunno.
  51. *But she was never too incorporated in it.
  52. *So... I dunno if it matters.
  53.    Murdoc     says:
  54. *True.
  55. *Until katy became a major character, she was just going to be our graphics person.
  56. *Also.
  57. *I like how Leo mentions 'inactivity'.
  58. *When it's only been a few days since the last post.
  59.    2D     says:
  60. *I think he was referring to player inactivity.
  61.    Murdoc     says:
  62. *Well, yeah.
  63. *Since the spoiler incident, readership fell drastically.
  64. *I feel that the ARG's biggest problem.
  65. *Was how devoted we each were.
  66. *At the beginning it was me and you.
  67. *We were more... casual.
  68. *Then Cade came on.
  69. *He was also more or less casual.
  70. *He just felt that his character doing something different than he wanted was going too far.
  71. *And then Leo came on.
  72. *And I feel he was more... intense about it than either of us were.
  73.    2D     says:
  74. *Actually.
  75. *I think it became less casual the instant Cade left.
  76.    Murdoc     says:
  77. *Yes.
  78.    2D     says:
  79. *I started looking desperately for a replacement.
  80.    Murdoc     says:
  81. *Then the two sides hit /much/ faster than I thought we'd intro them.
  82.    2D     says:
  83. *And I wanted it all to stay the same.
  84.    Murdoc     says:
  85. *We were sporadically bringing in characters.
  86.    2D     says:
  87. *And the spoiler thing didn't help.
  88.    Murdoc     says:
  89. *Katy, The Doctor, that one scientist fellow.
  90.    2D     says:
  91. *Yeah.
  92.    Murdoc     says:
  93. *Cade was to us what Ray Stanz is to the ghostbusters.
  94. *And while it /shocks/ me to say this, Cade was the heart of Alwayslookback.
  95.    2D     says:
  96. *He was.
  97. *He gave us all the ideas.
  98. *Puzzles.
  99. *Kept us going, really.
  100. *Though, and I hate to say this, I still think he did the spoilers.
  101.    Murdoc     says:
  102. *And then we tried out Gare, and he helped keep us on our feet.
  103. *But we were just staggering by that point.
  104.    2D     says:
  105. *Yeah.
  106. *Gare wasn't around much, actually.
  107.    Murdoc     says:
  108. *The blog was just a 'lamejack' before Isaac came on really.
  109. *And... Cade /was/ Isaac.
  110. *There's no denying it.
  111.    2D     says:
  112. *...
  113. *Yeah.
  114. *Cade was Isaac as Isaac was Cade.
  115. *None of us could really replace Cade as Isaac.
  116.    Murdoc     says:
  117. *The thing about Cade and I.
  118. *Is that we're D&D'ers.
  119. *Furthermore, we're /DMs/.
  120. *So we know how to make something that incorporates the players while still being story
  121.    2D     says:
  122. *Exactly.
  123.    Murdoc     says:
  124. *Same with you.
  125.    2D     says:
  126. *And I was more the writer and such.
  127.    Murdoc     says:
  128. *Leo's more of a gamer, so he's more of...
  129. *The one that dictates the actions.
  130.    2D     says:
  131. *Exactly.
  132. *Anyways.
  133. *Off the topic.
