![]() If you would like to see first hand what a Discord RPG looks like, visit it here: In my next blog, I will get into the details of the server and how it is setup. This is one of the very few Discord RPG's you can find out there, guided by a Custom bot. It provides a way to play against the AI (Bot Embeds with reaction collectors), to also be able to play member vs member in a real time RPG. The Theme of the Server is Game of Thrones, and the idea is to work your way up to become the King, or any other power role such as Hand, Priestess, Lord Commander, Lord of a Great House and many more. What started out as a ton of googling and watching of youtube videos to create a bot, from one giant file full of code, has now grown into a more efficient file system, hosted on Heroku, with a Mongdb cloud account with close to 200 members and on a good day, about 70 active. This essentially became my hobby to destress about the pandemic, the new job, the changes in remote work etc. However, somehow I got caught up in the world of Discord, something I knew nothing about as a Boomer, and ended up building a Custom Bot for a Game of Thrones Server. Not that I had much time during the beginning of the pandemic either, starting a new job. ![]() The point of the intro above was that I have always wanted to somehow design/build games, yet never found a way into that profession as I navigated through the chores of work, live, work. Lord of the Rings the Fellowship RPG:Īnyways, I digress. That was a couple of wasted years of map making but eventually it got pretty big at least in terms of the small community in Age of Empires 2 HD and even blew up with a youtube video created about it by the infamous Spirit of the Law:įrom there, I went on to make another map famous but this time in my favorite genre, the RPG. Since the map was no longer being updated, I reached out to the original creator and asked if I could start adding to it unofficially. I played it a ton and thought of things I could add to improve upon it. Years later, I found myself downloading Age of Empires 2 HD on Steam and found an amazing map based on Game of Thrones, which was in its peak at the time. ![]() By that point, life changed, I found a fulltime job in Data Entry and no longer had time to keep up with the gaming or website admin side of things. ![]() From that, I ended up somehow managing a website of a Gaming Network for the newly released Empire Earth. ![]()
