List of cliches

Listen to yourself. You've used the word legacy. It would be much better as;

Sterrance: Nothing

however, that uses a colon, which is imo cliche, so;

Nothing Sterrance.
But that sounds like a failed 1980's sit-com, so;

Sterrance.

i was kidding

Then use the sarcasm smiley, silly.
Sarcasm doesn't portray very well over the internet.

I'll lay it on more thick next time

Old conversation.

sorry

How about Paul is a 36 year old knight who fights in some battles but isn't some mystical sole saviour of the world. He doesn't find love as love isnt to be found on the battlefield. His best friend is his steel sword which he never changes.

36 might not seem old but in the context, it is. We're talking times of a 40 year old life expectancy.

That said, in my game I'm just shitting on cliches all over the place for the hell of it.

Quote from Night Portal:
"The Great Wizard of Midown accepts no cliche! This mage is the good guy!"

Thousands of years ago the evil demon Kostchtchie
terrorized the earth. the mages of the 9 crystals
blahblahblah.. sealed him away
but now.. Kostchtchie will return
and only the one who can collect the 9 crystals can save him
but that guy is sleeping...


you:"..."
mom:"wake up..."
mom:"WAKE UP!!!"
you:"huh?"
mom:"your late"
How cliche is that?

Some of the cliches on there are actually things that are nearly unavoidable. Like how a passage is nearly impossible to see from a birds eye view, but the party would be able to see them easily.

I was happily surprised though that my game doesn't have a lot of cliches at all.

I'm glad the RM world finally grew out of Ghost*2 being the first enemy faced in the middle of a field.
