Message: <blockquote data-quote="killxo" data-source="post: 5517286" data-attributes="member: 6673721">u can disregard the quote, i just made that huge wall o' text smaller.i do agree with what you're saying, in that what you say makes sense. i'll start with this: in response to you thinking i want it to be a video game, yes that would be a wonderful thing. but i know for a fact that wont happen anytime soon, so im not hoping for that or going in that direction.secondly, this is a long-term project for me. i do want it to be an epic scale story that players can enjoy themselves creating their path through it. the reason why i dont say "i want it to be like this (insert media type here)" is because i do not know if it will become a PNP,single player rpg, MMO etc. i'm focusing on creating it as a whole;the story , the spells, the systems , the rules etc. because really, any PNP could become a video game; and most video games could be made into a PNP. as you said , the format of both are different. i know video games very well, but i also have some experience to understand what PNP's are like, and yes i am still learning. i am more or less taking ideas from video games and converting them into a workable format that you'd see in a PNP game.the whole project started with me realizing that i need to do something creative. and i have a passion for gaming in general so i started off just writing stuff down for a game. i'm a very creative person so i enjoy doing all of this. i have alot to learn about PNP's and how i can create something unique using my past knowledge of RPG's. the whole project is something i will keep and will hopefully be something i can share with everyone in the world, regardless of what format it may be in.now you seem like a knowledge-able individual, so i have some questions; specifically about the OGL and the SRD. i'm a bit confused about the 2 acronyms. is the SRD based off the OGL? or is it the other way around? from what i understand i can use the 3.5e rules of D&D anyway i want but i have to document i'm using them , and which ones i use. i know i'm not going to be using all the 3.5e rules, as i'm using some newer systems i've come up with by myself. but i do plan on using the rules for combat and some other things(these other things are vague because i havent figured them out yet ^_^').i know this post has gotten large but i have one more thing to ask <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f61b.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":P" title="Stick out tongue    :P"  data-smilie="7"data-shortname=":P" />. you all know more about PNP's than me, is there a few PNP's you can recommend i take a look at? something i can study and learn fromP.S.: my game doesnt interfere with my school work <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /> i only focus like 2-3 hrs max everyday/every other day on my game so, i wont let it mess up my school work <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f61b.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":P" title="Stick out tongue    :P"  data-smilie="7"data-shortname=":P" /></blockquote>
