Area Expansion Poll

[Farren Kutter]

I say Stone Labyrinths Just cause.

[Jeraphon]

I say Stone Labyrinths Just cause.

And that's as good a reason as any.

[Erisnas]

To me that the Stone Labyrinths are going to be a high level area of great profit and exploration, at the cost of insanely powerful enemies.

svuun read some of the rest of the thread.

Clickable everything we can work on (to a degree and within reason)  but map fixes are NOT done by the people who make new maps.

please reread suggestion in my original post. give them a rest from new areas, or let them enrich current ones.  they don't have to "fix" anything as add to in terms of content. the idea being don't add more broken/functionless areas when the previous ones can be made so much better. quality of the current state over quantity in terms of new maps is my message and the sentiments of those i talk to ingame.

its this perspective that's not expressed in the poll is all.  Don't take offense.

What makes you think I am taking offense?

I am just saying you do not realize the implications of what you are asking is all.

Empty areas are a problem of a bygone age.

[Aregul]

My vote would have to go to... Small Villages or Oja. I really voted for Ojaveda though.

[bilbous]

I need 100 sock puppets as I keep voting for minority positions. I hope nobody else is using them

[Under the moon]

Sock puppets!?

* Under the moon watches Arnigus Faymore go running off as if an army of ulbers was after him.

Please, don't talk about puppets. It upsets the Sheeples.

Realy you think that guy would figure that he wouldn't have to run if he would just hire a few honest bodyguards

On topic I voted for small vilages not only because I want to see the out lying areas developed but because I would also like to see a few guard posts along the roads.

[Xillix Queen of Fools]

Let's get this one to 150.

[Kieve]

*Kieve stands in the shadows, muttering to self* C'mon, Stone Labyrinths...

Given that the result of this will probably result in at least one or two tasks thrown my way, S.L. sounds like the most fun and interesting of the choices to work on.

And more critters to play with, too.

[Under the moon]

Well, if you have farms (included in small villages, as would be small mining camps and trading posts, I would think), you will need livestock and pack animal models and art, carts, farming tools, farmer's garb, huts and fencing (perhaps dynamic), new map textures, skills that support farming (perhaps even smoking meats in time!), a system of farming, perhaps fishing, stories for each farmer, miner, or trader, and some quests to match.

Plenty to do there.

[Kieve]

Yeah, but those don't pique my interest.

[Ironstark]

In my opinion Yliakum needs an enemy, something besides your usual critters ... so I voted for the Stone Labyrinths to be expanded.

Personally I dislike the focus on more combat oriented gameplay and the stereotypical 'evil territory' but I know a lot of players are getting so bored with the peaceful situation around Hydlaa and Ojaveda that they go very far (away from the settings) to create some excitement. So I guess I'm hoping adding some Stone Labyrinth areas can fix this.

I agree about the enemy idea...but also...how can you hate combat?

[Farren Kutter]

Bah... no stone labyrinths... and the real reason I wanted them was because I enjoy wandering aimlessly and a series of tunnels and such like the stone labyrinths would provid a fun time trying to figure it out so I have a mental map Or a real one
