I don't think an EQ server can be devoted to any one thing. The community can choose to devote themselves to pve encounters if they wish, but the opportunity for RP, making friends and like playing the market game is always there. Wanting incentive to pvp beyond winning camp rights and just having fun sounds too WoW for my tastes. We have real reasons to pvp, like earning scarce resources and fighting people that have become your enemy in some way. It's great [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
Yeah my facetious comments seem to be misunderstood quite frequently. It's causing me a bit of a headache lately, and here I just thought I was being clever and funny.
Don't tell me what my purpose should be here. EQ isn't so limiting, even if you try to make it so. If absolutely everyone came here with the attitude you have, things would be really bland. PvP is great, but there's so much more to the game than just that. It was fun back in the day to tell people that they were too blue to play pvp, but now that we're actually hurting for players we might want to consider admitting to ourselves that playing a video game doesn't make us hardcore and that if we welcomed other styles of play instead of demonizing them we might have more people to play with.
Just my simple elfin opinion. |
On Rallos Zek there was pvp everywhere until they added so much no drop gear pvp died and everyone went to Sullon.
On Sullon there was pvp everywhere until everyone realized we would get nothing from all those coins we were collecting, pretty much everyone re-rolled evil because what the hell is the point of pvp when you only get rewarded from pve. I didn't keep racks on stacks of coins in my bank because they looked pretty.
You give a reason to pvp everyone will pvp, you give a reason to pve everyone will pve, it's really a common sense thing. PvP server's on Eq were not for people to PVE and occasionally pvp there's an entire game devoted to those types of player's it's called WoW. EQ pvp was hardcore, merciless and unforgiving.
If that's not the type of pvp you want then your playing the wrong game, plain and simple. It's called project 1999 red there was one true pvp server in 1999 Rallos Zek there is absolutely no reason for a blue and red server where the goal is to pve dungeon raid!
