It's so baffling to me that Urealms as a whole had like 5 different mechanical iterations like that's so much fucking work when everyone agreed that s2 was already great
Tecado rawb
I GMed for years a tabletop RPG I created that like Urealms was simplified and we had different characters every campaign.

See, I don't disagree with the assessment that it didn't need more mechanical upgrades to it but... Okay, I'm in a longform game with a rotating character cast, and it updates like every 2 months with new items, rules changes, character options, etc. It keeps things fresh to change things. (and on a personal writing project side, I've revamped my own setting lore like 17 times over 20 years) Sometimes it's just a matter of never being satisfied with something that's good enough, and at times that results in a net negative.

Somehow, against all odds, we have gained a selection of people that Rob chat is 10x more active that any other chat for the first time in many years
Tbf I have had it pent up for a smidge too long lol

Yeah I'm not mad about change because imo every iteration apart from s1 that obviously needed much more plish was great, every iteration s2 onwards I'd say worked beautifully
Tecado rawb
But sometimes the character creation was improved but combat wsa downgraded, then combat was upgraded but meta stuff was downgraded, then meta stuff was downgraded and character creation was upgraded
Tecado rawb
and I know that I'm biased because for my own game I took the stuff that I personally prefered so obviously I'd feel it's superior, and I was just creating my game for a group of friends instead of a huge show

Anyways to have some base level contribution to the current discussion. Around the end of S2 of URL and for sure already during S3. Rob decided that being funny was not the correct path, and that instead he had to be some grand storyteller. While I for sure think this ruined urealms, this can actually be seen more extremely in the arcs after that (gta rp up until full mental breakdown monika rupert sneakymouse arc)

Rob legitimately would talk about how he would walk around picking up garbage in Toronto, and was beoming a bard so that he could be the NPC is other peoples lives

I personally wouldn't say that shift ruined urealms (I even think that the single s4 campaign, the yes king I think it was called was really good)

Like when you want to make your silly web show a grand epic and you disregard all it's strengths to try and make it into the next Tolkien, it didn't suprise me at all he wasn't satisfied with what he was making, even tho it was still great
Tecado rawb
Also speaking of rob's reddit, I remember once looking at it in vain to try and relive memories after he nuked all his websites
Phijkchu_Pikachu rawb
Tragically, the server being banned, and also Rob chat being deleted before that means the entire history of us talking about Rob as urealms live was ongoing (and pre that) is dead and gone
Tecado rawb
like I said I liked all of urealms but the campaigns after AZ were preety much all grand epic worldbuilding lore wanking
Tecado rawb
I'm glad I wasn't part of "the comunity" I enjoyed the show like a normal person and whenever I went to the forums and stuff for info

Hivequeen was a wholesome chungus teacher who Rob wanted to have sex with
watching that I didn't give rob the benefit of the doubt for one microsecond, it was instantly
Phijkchu_Pikachu rawb
Rob had a large harem of random ewomen he cycled through (lost through various drama/events) leaving him where he is now, with ms dvil, an onlyfans prostitute who he was trying to be the promotor/manager of

Hivequeen is kind of a nothing footnote in the story because of how fast she stopped being relevant
to me it was so funny how after this grand video she was like the conclusion "stop donating to me donate to her guiseeeeee!!!"
