RPG World (Webcomic) | comment |
RPG World was an award-winning webcomic by Ian Jones-Quartey, part Affectionate Parody, part Homage and part original spin on the idea of a Final Fantasy style console RPG and the characters who dwell in them, as well as the Video Game Tropes and Anime Tropes encountered in such games. One of Keenspot's earlier comics during the rise of webcomics in the 2000s.The story follows the exploits of a guy named Hero, who sets out on a quest to save the world. Along the way he meets Cherry (a thief he meets as she's mugging a guy at knifepoint), Diane (a harlot who he just randomly picks up while visiting a town), and Eikre (a self-proclaimed ladies man) who join the adventures. Add in many shenanigans with extra characters and tons of lampshade hanging on their rather oddball world.Seems like a fun setup, and from 1999-2004, the comic held steady, even having a crossover with Adventurers! (with the story titled "Eh It Had to Happen"). But during the series' final years (2005-2007), its fandom had devolved into complaining fanboys who weren't satisfied with how the story was turning out, which in turn contributed to Ian's Creator Breakdown (already manifesting with his studying animation and personal matters at the time in the midst of juggling the schedule for this comic), which wasn't helped by the fact that back then, Ian didn't take the fact the comic had many fans all that seriously. Ultimately all this came to a head when Ian couldn't keep up the updates and just flat-out abandoned the comic. To add insult to injury, he was working on the final story arc of the comic, right when the heroes are on the verge of facing the Big Bad, when he made the decision leaving the series on a cliffhanger that was never to be resolved.As for Ian, his animation career has flourished. Shortly after leaving RPG World, he co-produced animated shorts called nockFORCE with Jim Gisriel - they can be viewed on their Youtube channel here. He later parlayed that into being a hired animator for shows such as The Venture Bros. and Adventure Time (even doing voicework, like for Bravest Warriors). He moved on to become creative director for Steven Universe (where the show's protagonist has Hero action figure) before eventually leaving to work on his own series OK K.O.! Let's Be Heroes.Ultimately this led into RPG World finally getting a belated ending almost 15 years after that last update, in the form of a television crossover between the comic and OK K.O.! Let's Be Heroes, entitled "A Hero's Fate." The episode premiered on September 29, 2017, with Michael Sinterniklaas playing Hero. Due to positive reaction to the episode, Ian uploaded the one-page ending for the series from ''OK KO!'' to his tumblr on October 4, 2017, finally giving fans a proper close to the comic once and for all. note Sorta, it doesn't wrap up all the story lines of the series. But hey, close enough. Fan RevivalOn the 19th of June, 2016, a fan revival (called, funnily enough, "RPG World: Fan Revival") was started by two fans, continuing the story directly where the original comic left off. It can be found here. While it unfortunately went into a hiatus of over a year and a half when the author had trouble keeping up the updates, it returned on July 31, 2018.The cast included:In the "real world": Jim, The Guy who Plays RPG World, appearing mainly in Filler Strips.In the game world: Hero: The Lvl 50 Warrior; A human with Anime Hair, who named himself The Chosen One, and is rather competent a fighter if he's not in his Too Dumb to Live stage. Cherry: The Lvl 50 Thief; an elven thief who can also summon, who is one part of the Love Triangle of the party. Diane: The Lvl 49 Mage; The magic user and healer of the party. Eikre: The Lvl 46 Outlaw; The enigmatic. Reka: The Lvl 42 Science Pirate; The girl genius. Dragobo: The Lvl 37 Cute Fuzzy Thing The Voiceless and Team Pet. Howard: Another cute fuzzy thing and apparently the White Mage. Rabble-Rouser: A dance battler. The strip ended very shortly after he joined the main party. Galgarion - the Big Bad, who had his own Theme Tune and was romantically interested in Cherry. ...and a Cast Herd of NPCs.Not to be confused with RPG Mechanics 'Verse, which is when the setting of a non-interactive work functions like a role-playing game (usually of the Eastern RPG or Tabletop RPG variety). | |

RPG World (Webcomic) / int_160cc6f | comment |
Cutscene: Usually placed at the end of a story chapter, paralleled to the end of a disc on the game. There was an Art Shift to not only color but a more detailed style to ape the fact that console games go from sprites to more elaborate animation for such scenes in games. | |

Voluntary Shapeshifting: Detestai, Earl, and Larry can change into cat monsters as their primary power, but Detestai can only perform partial transformations as she never learned how to control herself while fully transformed. Earl and Larry even lampshade the fact that she'll have to fully transform eventually. | |

Chekhov's Gun: Ian J. created banner ads for a game called Retro Mud where he put the RPG World characters in different outfits. Diane wore her mage outfit in these ads. Cherry was depicted as an archer, although her underboob-displaying outfit never made it in. Detestai was seen in a loose skimpy robe/drape thing that was later donned by Feijoa. | |

Lampshade Hanging | |
RPG World (Webcomic) / int_2a090d00 | comment |
Lampshade Hanging: A lot considering the comic's a parody, but most of it is done by Cherry. This is handwaved by saying that as a Chosen One, Cherry uses her connection to the Tatsachore to see past the bounds of their world, meaning that while Hero can power up his stats and Diane can use magic more effectively, she just gets to notice game mechanics. | |

Sorting Algorithm of Evil: Cherry is of course the only member of the party to wonder why the monsters are getting progressively stronger as the party travels. When she asks Hero what would have happened if they had taken a different path (i.e., gone Off the Rails), the concept breaks his brain. | |

Red Herring Mole | |
RPG World (Webcomic) / int_5b64e6d4 | comment |
Red Herring Mole: One of the most elaborate examples ever. The comic goes into so many ways Eikre could be Galgarion that it looks like it could be a parody of really, really obvious Moles, helped by the fact that Galgarion's real disguise is so incredibly subtle. | |

Fully Absorbed Finale: The OK K.O.! Let's Be Heroes episode, "A Hero's Fate", if fans choose to consider it canon. By now Hero is Level 90, but left his companions behind a long time ago in his single-minded desire to defeat Galgarion. K.O. eventually helps both foes realize that they've been neglecting other parts of their lives in order to level up and defeat each other; both agree to at least suspend their feud, and Hero tracks down Cherry. After a Time Skip, they have a baby named Spaghetti. | |

Hero Looking for Group: The introductory panels are about Hero proclaiming himself the one to "vanquish the evil war horde (and its leader Galgarion) but acknowledging he can't do it alone. Consequently, he spends the next few chapters collecting a Rag Tag Band Of Misfits comprised of a thief, a harlot, and an outlaw. A science pirate, two fuzzy Team Pets, and a dance battler join later on. | |

Medium Awareness: Eikre's favorite band, "Evil", shows signs of this combined with Death Seeker in their song lyrics here. The song's point of view is a random enemy who's aware of the cursor and that their hitpoints are low and their gauge is broken. The singer is telling his opponent to attack him but "Don't compare me to you!" in defiance of the Heel–Face Turn trope. | |

Cliffhanger | |
RPG World (Webcomic) / int_c6b8d37a | comment |
Cliffhanger: The final battle with Galgarion which was on the verge of starting when the comic ended. And the sub-plot of Reka's robots making a time machine to supposedly save her from being killed. | |

Magic Skirt: Though in Reka's case, it's Magic Saggy Pants; nothing is actually holding them up. If Hero's sketchy detective work is true, they're held up by glue. | |

RPG World (Webcomic) / int_cd01a310 | comment |
One strip hung a lampshade on some of the idiosyncrasies of video game plot pacing when the heroes were forced to do a lighthearted butterfly-catching minigame but were completely unable to enjoy it, because they were still broken up about a character who had just died. | |

Cerebus Syndrome: though arguably a subversion as the story went back to comedic after an extremely serious comic. One strip hung a lampshade on some of the idiosyncrasies of video game plot pacing when the heroes were forced to do a lighthearted butterfly-catching minigame but were completely unable to enjoy it, because they were still broken up about a character who had just died. | |

RPG World (Webcomic) / int_dbc2a0cd | comment |
This is handwaved by saying that as a Chosen One, Cherry uses her connection to the Tatsachore to see past the bounds of their world, meaning that while Hero can power up his stats and Diane can use magic more effectively, she just gets to notice game mechanics. | |

Contrived Coincidence | |
RPG World (Webcomic) / int_dc579c91 | comment |
Contrived Coincidence: Eikre's introduction led to a number of factors that made it look like he was obviously Galgarion in disguise such as him constantly hitting on Cherry, being overly suspicious and wearing a shirt that says EVIL on it. It turns out that he was just a pervert and EVIL is the name of his favorite band. | |

Powered by a Forsaken Child | |
RPG World (Webcomic) / int_e794cb54 | comment |
Powered by a Forsaken Child: Galgarion has a weapon that works like this: he uses it to suck the soul out of one person, then launches the souls as a beam of energy. It does 9999 damage, although it can also cause instant death, or unfortunately, slow and agonizing death. His use of this weapon, and later boasting about having used it on innocent people, including one underling's wife, are the first signs of Galgarion's true nature. | |

No Ending | |
RPG World (Webcomic) / int_ea2e9f2d | comment |
No Ending: In the original run, the characters reach the final boss, begin fighting the final boss and then... nothing. As it turns out, the creator just plain got tired of working on the comic and axed it. Considering that there was a just-introduced character, two missing MacGuffins, and a bunch of unresolved sideplots, the ending probably wasn't that imminent anyhow. Didn't make it any less stinging however. 10 years later, however, Ian finally gave the comic a proper ending, albeit one that skips a considerable period from the last strips produced. | |
