What do you want to do?
« on: February 05, 2011, 09:50:01 am »
Hey everyone, quick survey...

What do you wish you could do in an mmorpg? Use your imagination. It could be something that no mmorpg yet offers, or it could be a variation on something that already exists, or it could even be something that is very common but that you still really like. Please refrain from posting anything crude.

As an example:
I wish I could build/construct in an mmorpg. Some have had this to a certain extent, but not very many, and usually when they do implement it, it's very limited. I'd love for an mmorpg to have comparatively creative building opportunities, with at least as many options as a game like the Sims has.

I wish I could shop inside a mall... b'coz I love shopping when my legs aren't sore or I'm not tired AND HAVE INFINITY MONEY, and that is usually when I'm lying on my bed on the laptop. So really build an Emporium and let us go shoppingzzz  :D

i want to have real martial arts in an mmorpg. with different styles and moves, all the attacks key-binded, and it's fought in real-time and it would all be based on skill! and crazy physics! so if you back spinning heel kick a noob in the face, he slams into a wall and his head explodes! or if you axe kick someone hard enough, maybe their arm will get torn off. and a tornado kick releases a giant twister of immense proportions, swallowing your opponent and spitting him out all over the place! and you can jab your fist up through people's stomachs and into their ribcages and tear their heart out and eat it! like vampire ninjas or something. omnomnom!

I want to build things that last, to make or do things that are useful, to go beyond the edges of the world and I want to play music.

Another point for Phantom...


As for what I'd like.. I'd like to see some form of music brought into the game, and archery brought in as a more interactive skill, perhaps having the user aim with a mouse, and the higher their Ranged level is, the less the mouse will float around...

What? Doesn't he just look huggable? Aw, c'mon, give him a hug.

Vakachehk: I see your point, sort of... though most mmos are fantasy, so a shopping mall wouldn't quite fit, but maybe a shopping experience that relates a little more to real life?

Sarras: I understand what you're looking for, and it could have been conveyed without all the graphic detail. I definitely agree with your desire for a more twitch-based fighting system in mmos.

Verden: Not sure about everything you said. The main thing I took away is that you'd like to be able to do things in the game that have more lasting impact.

Phantomboy: Ok...

Caraick: Interesting. Have you seen the way they implement music in LotRO? Is that more or less what you're talking about? The archery idea is pretty cool, I'll give you that.

Just to clarify, this thread has nothing to do with PS, per se.

what? You wouldn't want to go under the sea and stab a giant monster to death with a harpoon?

I did say a special word... Emporium, it means an olden day market (I know it is indoor but I don't know if you can get an outdoor one ???) they are mostly built for the wealthier people, so more flashy inside with expensive shops/stalls, I do think that if you have an indoor shopping mall type thing it is very possible to make it fantasy like. But yes making a more of a shopping experience, or improving it, you could wander around any popular WoW city and find shops clustered together (wall to wall) that's something we should have around the Hydlaa Plaza.


@Sarras WoW is still more successful than PS ;)

Building things. I want to make a cart with a rivnak that pulls it, something that I can build! I want to build houses, build furniture, build carts and beds and nic-nacs and dolls for lil' girls!  :-[
Ardoin: So, do you drink moonshine?

Quell a revolution
I suggest the statue of Laanx gets turned into a statue of Parallo <3. An NPC could never replace the huge hole he left in my heart when he died  :'(
