Out of curiosity, if, sometime in the mid-to-far future, one of us were to create a new RP, would you prefer a mecha setting or a superhero/comic book-like setting?

Superhero. My choice should have been obvious.
I also really like how the polls on our forum look. Never saw one on here before.

Wtf, our forum polls look beautiful now.
My vote goes to Superhero. Mecha sounds interesting, but I'm doubting my ability to create an interesting, creative robot as opposed to a superhero.

i'm going to vote mecha. when you really think about it, a large portion of the characters we RP as are, to some extent, super heroes. what do we do when we make a character? Well, at some point during the process we give them a crazy ability or two that would be fit for a comic book just so that they are fun to use in a fight/survive whatever crazy bullshit is bound to come their way. I honestly think that a mecha RP would offer an interesting change of pace, and require us to think about our approach to making our characters in ways we haven't had to before.

I voted for mecha too because that would be more interesting for me but as a general note I think people have reservations about the logistics of developing a profile for a large mech and the component details of its chassis. Superhero RP is just more akin to what we usually do so it's an easier setting to digest. I'd love to give a mech RP a test run though.

I have no idea how I'd adequately describe my mech. I also have no idea how I'd go about describing its weapons, cockpits, and the inner components of how they work and stuff. There's just so much stuff about the mechs themselves that I'd have zero idea how to describe or even think about.
Simply put, I'm too stupid for it.

....And now, I shall vote myself. I vote Superhero.
Superhero is in the majority, it seems.

To be fair, I certainly think that Mecha is a way more interesting RP to do, and definitely more of a departure from our usual style. I voted Superhero, however, because I think we'll have the potential to actually power-balance it. With a mecha RP, there's a huge variety of technologies to address, as well as issues of scaling strength, relative to each type of mecha. There's a lot more customization and coolness with the mecha genre, but it'd be incredibly difficult to fully establish the universal settings and rules in order to keep it fair by any measure.
