World of Alkora (aka EQA)

[smogo]

Land is (usually) bound to 3 dimensions. Well, ask people who've been to a foreign country. Many of them didn't get same feeling, and don't 'know' the same things when they are back. Just because they didn't meet the same pple, or didn't talk the same things.

Well, if you know pple that you can tell your friends everything about, these pple aren't worth meeting on the other hand, interesting pple, you've go to go by yourself to figure out. Maybe Alkora could be different, and host special pple. It's just impossible to tell

If unsure, ask Gödel.

It's human nature to want things easier. And it's in the blood of everquest players, hence why sites like eqmaps.com and others exist. people want the goods without working for it. if your server is designed around the "hope" that only another class of person will play it, it will not do as you expect )

Its also in human nature to be curious and to discover things, you just need to give them the right tools.

We are not that dumb thanks. The server is designed for a type of people, and the gameplay of the server is designed to favorise those peoples. Camping for 8hours at the same spot, kill one mob at 80 players, ... will be always possible, but there will be other ways do play (quests, adventures, ...) and "reward" will be way better. Its Darwin logic, players that like the old EQ play will get bored and will simply leave because they wont be satisfacted.

id say class interdepandancy is the key to play co-operation .. traveling should be required for quests and things having to goto hhk for sharpening stone or lvl 8 spell

It sounds all interesting in "theory" but i don't think the eq engine can successfully pull off a "new" way to explore. Perhaps elaborate more on the DETAILS of the system because it just doesn't seem feasible, but i may just not be understanding.

its not a new way to explore, it was the original vision but you never noticed it because you used allakazam from day one kthnx

Allakhazam wasn't around from day one. I started playing the night eq went live thank ya very much.

I don't remember alla back then. i didnt find out about alla til kunark came out.
