((Fair enough. I can understand why you wanted to do that. What vague idea did you have for such a thing or is that private for the big reveal?))
((private for a big reveal. Maybe.))

((Alright. I'll try to keep my curiosity in check then, so as not to ruin the surprise then. Possibly. Maybe. Probably not.))

((although i doubt a v4 will ever happen because of the same reasons the whole rotmg line fell; everyone got bored of their characters and shit.))

((And Alterverse died because nobody considered reasons for their characters to not just go home.))

Of course, Twin is neither man nor woman but an unholy eldritch abomination like every other Bay12er. The difference is they hide it better.

((So... The usual reasons then? These games never end properly after all, just slowly collapse due to lack of interest.))

((No, Alterverse collapsed because half the players intentionally kept their disbelief and were actively protesting against staying because it made sense. They expected to be babied and all but forced to stay and then complained when their completely uncooperative characters didn't have a reason to stay in the group.))

((I say it collapsed because no one thought about turning it into some sort of incomprehensible Umineko-style game wherein people try to murder each other with weapons made out of citations over the nature of the escape pod, the alien strategy as a whole, and the nuclear reactor :P))

((...

I just realized that I never did the RotMG ghost hunters thing that I talked about way back when. Guess it's a little late to work on that now, huh?))

((You could still just make a game about ghost hunters with an intentionally patchwork setting. Though I guess the arguments and confusion about the lore won't be replicate, which would be an issue seeing as it appears to be a key part of this game.

Or I guess you could kill a living and a dead bird with one stone by making a game about magical spambots that hunt ghosts residing within phantom websites that shouldn't even be up anymore yet which persist in the darknet, forgotten APT units that have become haunted, and the broken remnants of failed mind-uploading projects, subduing them before forcing them to listen to sales pitches for affordable goods they don't need :P

Probably would have some title that's a pun on the concept of a ghost in the machine. Probably also be pretty damn confusing for the ghosts. I mean, imagine if you were dead for years or even centuries, forgotten to the world, carving out your own little home with strangers in a forgotten part of the internet and then suddenly a bunch of brightly colored true AI units barge in, tase you, and force you to listen to cutesy jingles about products you've never even heard of? Actually, I guess it could work sort of like that Undertale game where other people can submit and control ghosts to fight and sell to.))
