Potential interest for a new Ye Gods Clone Inquisition Thread
« on: September 02, 2021, 09:04:48 am »

Some of you may remember the glorious days of all the seasons of Ye Gods made possible by our fellow forum mate Kilojoule Proton.
For a long time we have not had the luck to play another round, so I was wondering if there was potential interest in another round.

Also I wonder if we could create a couple of metarules to make it playable and bearable for the GM as I had the feeling that our ever increasing antics wore on KJP back then.
So what do you guys say?

"Don't be a huge dickhead to other players" would be a good one to start with, I distinctly remember lots of OOC drama last time.

Basically it was a game where each player played a god with two aspects, gaining worship through followers and being able to create and influence the world. KJP made updates in ticks where they'd post about the god actions and count their essence (mana) and such.

One of the problems of the later versions were that people would go crazyer and crazyer with their actions and it became hard to manage (at least it looked like it from the outside perspective) and as mentioned before there was some dickhead behaviour as well. Furthermore i often had the impression that people were playing to win in a game where there possibly couldn't be a winner. just my two cents...

Another fun part was that it had alot of players often over 10 i think in some versions over 20

Does anybody remember the ratio of essence generation per pop?
Edit: Also which version should we base our clone on?

I'd just build it from the ground up with previous experiences in mind. Also design with feat-based deities in mind to begin.

A recurring issue was the inability to get any essence without custom-building mortals to worship you. There was no real way to be a deity who was worshipped primarily for what they do, rather than what they make.

Also we're bringing back the Penrose sphere world idea and nobody can stop me.

Well, that would be ideally hammered out somewhere in the process. I wouldn't expect a solution to happen immediately.
