The point of a persistent world MMO is that it's—duh—persistent. If the design requires scheduled "wipes" to prevent stagnation then it's already failed at a mechanical level, or at least in influencing the perceptions of its players.

Even in fantasy, there's a line between acceptable and absurd; you'd have had to trip over it and hit your head to think that a 2-foot tall pistol-wielding rodent is anything but the latter.

If you are speaking on crowfall you read/watch a bit more on their plan for the persistent worlds and campaigns.

From what they have released so far they have a lot of unique ideas. Stagnation is a problem with the whole genre of MMORPGs. Hopefully they can deliver

It's likely that every server will have a totally different "world map" and when a server "resets" the entire world map the server is using will be changed to a new one.

All the negative I see in this thread is a whole bunch of bluebieness.

You people on Red99 confuse farming VP for 4+ years and having 8 toons in BIS VP gear with "skill." Shadowbane was a game of skill whereas EverQuest is a game of gear.

EverQuest PVP is primarily about gear and numbers; this is the reason you losers gear Rogues and Rangers with epics and VP items then de-level them to 10 or 20 to kill people in rags. Again, you confuse this "griefing" with "PVP."

For a game that supposedly wasn't about gear, it's funny that pvp loot in SB didn't include equipped items.

Sounds pretty "bluebie" compared to RZ.
