I really enjoy the fighting heavy aspect, but the ability to world build, create unique characters and truly have an influence on a game world is important. Sometimes having an established canon can take away your freedom as a writer; on the other hand having a canon to work with can help with the creative process by giving you a framework to build off of.
I think a lot of it comes down to a driver's familiarity and love for canon characters and the setting. There are a TON settings it would be fun to write in, but few that I'd want to write for a previously existing character. If I was gonna do a canon game Id write as Mustard (a spice boy) so that Id have the freedom to write and make shit up.
I guess my point I that I wouldn't want to write on a hubb/forum if it was a strict canon, even more so because I don't really watch/enjoy most modern animes, and a lot of animes would get really boring/constricting to write in. In fact, this is why AD and Greg's proposed omniverse was an exciting idea for me to think about.
Also, if it's a naruto or bleach forum I dunno how excited Id be to write in it. Just not a fan of the series.
