Hi, everyone!
It's not long time since I began playing PS (even if I know about the project since it's early stage) and my overall opinion is largely positive (even if there are many areas still needing improvements, but it's a
).
However, while I like the overall setting, the first impression I had about Yliakum's world is it's a bit "static". I'm not talking about the players that I believe are doing a good job in keeping the things moving and interesting for the others players (especially the new ones) but I'm complaining about the events that seems rather few and lacking (in my opinion), please note that it's not a complain about the GM's.
So this is my proposal:
what I'd really like to see is a big storyboard playing in the background and able to keep the players interest wake and forcing the guilds to join one or the other side involved in the storyboard. In my opinion the storyboard should develop in about 1 year. Each "chapter" should be played in a Event where all players would be able to attend. There should be 1 of such event every 3 months (so a complete storyboard would be completed in 3 to 4 events).
Obviously the storyboard would just be an input and open up new chances for RPing. The storyboard would also involve event significant enough to catch many factions and guilds attenction (I believe the designers could involve some guild into the events developement, even without letting them know all the story
).
I know such proposal is hard to come by but involving many people (even players) could become reality (in RP term
). By my side I can offer to help designing (with the developers and GM's aid) the storyboard and a sketch for each event.
About me I've been a Game Master (and a Dungeon Master too
) for more than half of my life, and when designing stories I usually care more about the plot, the feelings and the player's enjoyment than about the rules.
So if you like my proposal and you think I may help let me know!
PS I don't know if it's the right section for this topic, so sorry if I got wrong.
