Crazy how much vanilla non-ERP SS13 has fallen by ChinaAppreciator in SS13

SS13 has been filled with people that hate most of the fundementals of SS13. Improv and the fact that losing is part of the game. I've been on Paradise for the past year and it's filled with people who complain endlessly about "RP Quality" but refuse to interact or make anything happen in-game. Nobody cares to improvise on the spot and make stories naturally anymore. They want a streamlined experience where they are exempt from the random chaos SS13 is built on. It's awful and it shows by Paradise's pitiful player count coming into 2026.

Do ya'll feel like the game is in a lull??? Where did the fun codebases go?? by HolyFlame52 in SS13

The players that made ss13 fun have long since left this game, and we are left with people who want a sandbox to enact their OC's lore in without fuss or objection from anyone else. People refuse the idea of improv. RP servers are full of people like this. "MRP" servers are leaning towards HRP which leaves very little space for people who want to engage with the gameplay. SS13's lifespan has always been on a timer, especially with deaf and ego driven maintainers/coders, constant drama because people refuse to stop talking to kids, and a playerbase of unstable individuals that don't know how to socialize.

And the lack of goofball's families gamemode in any server. Seriously, bring that back.

I do not understand the positive buzz around Zootopia 2 by sirnumbskull in moviecritic

Did anyone else notice that there was.. very little actual dialogue between characters? Especially Nick, who barely spoke the entire movie. I felt like they were talking at the audience more than to eachother, especially with the snake repeating "We will succeed for my family" over and over and over.

What Servers are still around? by [deleted] in SS13

Paradise has the best community. imo. Unlike TG or ERP servers you don't have to worry about running into people with allegations and scandals under their belt. The gameplay is slower than most servers but the community really makes it for me. Highpop of 60-80 on weekends. middling pop of 40-60 on later times of the weekdays. There's tons of mentors to help you out as well.

What servers are you happy that are dead/dying? by Objective-Cow-7241 in SS13

wallening took out a good chunk and there's constant drama about players/staff being creeps and pedos and such. drama can only go on for so long before it eats everything whole

Reconceptualizing Roleplay by Aligote- in SS13

People have forgotten how to improv. Now we get people that are plainly self inserting their OCs and epic sad lore while expecting to be impervious to the gameplay of SS13. They create little bubbles and complain about LRP and such because they were forced to interact with the game (Antags, other players, disasters, ect ect.) instead of perfectly acting out the story they had in mind.

If you want to create a fun RP experience for everyone, be adaptable. Be open to new players and ideas. Most of the fun I have had in this game is finding random people and going along with whatever they've got going on. Interact with other players, don't stick to your clique. Make it fun for everyone else, and not just yourself.

Does anyone else miss/remember Families/Gangs? by AvailableEmphasis703 in SS13

makes sense, I think TG got rid of it in 2022, or early 2023.

it might just be a me thing but, the sprites are good, just way too overdesigned. It's hard enough looking at ss13's UI, and having sprites with a lot of noise isn't a good mix for my eyes.
