I would absolutely love to play a game in the Wild Guns universe. It's a sci-fi western in every sense of the word, and you can get away with modern conveniences and a lot of different setpieces.
Dylan Collins
It's okay but I prefer Sci-Fi fantasy with wuxia element more than westerns because it is much more fun with everyone making up their own group specific styles and the groups and honor system is more feasible in futuristic fantasy.
Levi Phillips
Nothing says they can't coexist. They'd just be two different regions. "A cowboy in the Far East" isn't an unheard-of story.
Easton Williams
Sure they can. But you usually set expectation before running a session and as said, sci fi wuxia is more fun.
Dominic Johnson
Like Trigun
Levi Wilson
Watch Outlaw Star, OP
Thomas Hernandez
There are other options, like Wild Arms, Bravestarr, Trigun, or that one with the space sheriffs I can't remember the name of.
Elijah Rivera
I know what you're talking about, but the name escapes me.
Blake Miller
Is this a western animation?
How do the clothes make it pass the screaming censors and angry spinsters?
Jaxson Jones
It's a 80s western cartoon, yes. That art was a "reimagining" of one of the characters.

Zachary Cox
So what would be the standard conventions? Is it your typical western epic, just with vastly advanced tech and industrialization?
Tyler Myers
Not realistic armor.
Nicholas Morgan
That's not armour, that's a uniform.

Well, what I do is I -

- oh. Well, I guess you don't need an answer then.

>If you don't do it like some /a/ shit you've never heard of, you're doing it REEE!
Liam Garcia
It's a /v/ thing, actually. See .
Carter Smith
No, I do it like Wild Arms, like all good people should.
Michael Robinson
I do it like Firefly, mostly.
Anthony Rogers
What's special about Wild Arms?
Adrian Taylor
Kinda like this, actually.
Kayden Ramirez
Funny, I've been doing that myself.
Music & the designs are a big part of it imo. The world is also relatively interesting, being a mix of the death of magic while ARMs tech is slowly creeping in.
Been waiting for my players to get to a scenario so I can drop this song on them

Is there a problem with robot gunslingers and modern industry or something?
Parker Lopez
Bump. This aesthetic is intriguing.
Joshua Thompson
So is ARMs an acronym? What's it stand for?
Elijah Reed
Howdy pardner.
Wyatt Cooper
It depends on where you are in the series. But it usually means pain for anyone on the receiving end.
Samuel Nguyen
Ancient Relic Machines. Basically, leftover tech from an ancient civilization that JUST SO HAPPEN to look like fancy guns.
