-The thing I struggle with most is times for games. Everything is pretty much centralized for EST evening and weekends. Especially weekends. Which I know is all about player availability, but I think it plays a huge factor in the issue I mentioned above about there not being enough characters to easily gain memories for teams! I WILL HONESTLY HAPPILY RUN DAY GAMES ALL THE TIME... I just... need to app a Persona for it, whoops. But if possible I'd love to see people consider doing games more at different times. I know AJ does that! And I know I will if I ever stop chickening out over this app...! But for me personally I'm basically on I guess GMT in terms of availability and so it's impossible for me to make games or I'm late/luckily off (and I know it's the same for a lot of people). But! Maybe it's a thing for Persona players to consider when they plan a game and their availability for it? If at all possible (this is more just a thing I'd like to see post since I know it's all about availability).
-I think it would be really cool if characters who go on like Legacy Quests or Quests to help a specific persona for whatever reason to have a noticeable effect on things. Like Legacy Character going on super awesome quest to fight Darkness!!! But no one can see anything. Like they're out of play, but a little gimmick of the characters currently in Aather seeing their friends having an actual effect on things now and then would be really cool.
-I'd like to see more games that encourage off team cr! Not like mingle games, but the past few trauma games and some of the exploradas recently is a good example. Not necessarily all the time, but I'd love to see it outside of mainly exploradas/squished teams. Like a really neat idea would be a battle of team morals, but instead of a full team together maybe tiny groups and the teams that have the most concise view/understanding might win! Or the most individualistic, etc. It would be interesting to play with!
-I will always, always love Aather plots so much. Mostly because unlike every other game I've been it's very inclusive and so great at being that. I think my major issue with it is kind of similar to my issue with games in that a lot of the major things tend to happen around similar times. I know the whole Darkness wave plot in Camelot I always came home to things being over/winding down so I never knew what to do. So maybe a bigger timeslot and/or like others have said a set time where people can sign up for what is easiest for them to make? (SELFISHLY I WANT TO MAKE IT TO AN AATHER PLOT ONE DAY ;U;) Again I would also happily help with daytime things here too if needed!
-This one is more of a question but is it possible to consider applications to be open permanently while there is such a huge gap in the team slots? Only temporarily until things fill up more and as things stand I don't think it's something that would be utilized a lot or too troublesome. But that way instead of consistently having no one to place each week there's a possibility someone new might app!
Honestly, I love everything about Aather. It has been such a great game and all of my concerns are super minor and more or less fall under the 'poor turquoise' and 'timezone' issue things. ICly the thing that is sometimes the hardest for me is how fast things move from trauma game to the next game. I know we had a few days after the last one and I think it'd be nice to continue that trend? Because I tend to play characters who DON'T COPE and when the next IC day they're having a fluffy game about hugs it makes them disengage and just not worry about it and so they never confront their issues (thanks ron). So maybe a buffer between trauma and regular games would be a good idea? But that's not a super huge issue either.
I REALLY JUST WANT THE CHANCE TO FRIENDSHIP AT THE DARKNESS MORE. SORRY NOT SORRY.
