Title: Philosophy
Post by: Alighier on May 22, 2004, 03:45:18 pm
Hello you all

I just downloaded PS MB and CVS source code.

I was strolling around the city\'s narrow streets when I saw my first ruby crystal.
That made me think about what this game wants to become.

Is there any place where I can read what are the principles you are following in your developement?

I mean, what do you think an on line Role Playing Game has to be.

Do you just want to have a free FFXI(not so bad)?

Or do you think that online role playng might be something more(even better)?

Thx

Well, you could read everuthing at http://www.planeshift.it, that should give you a good idea.

The crystal hunt however, was implanted to award the current players and give them something to do. That is not what PS will be once it\'s a real rpg.

As far as I can tell, this game will be very similar in many ways to Everquest.  The developers seem quite fond of that game.

But I do agree with you, Alighier.  I would like to see a more formal declaration of intent.
Something similar to the articles shown here (http://www.arena.net/news/articles.html) , written by the developers of Guild Wars.  This would be ideal in my opinion.
