Hey y'all,
I wanna bring up the subject of storylines today and that has not yet happend mulmun event this month.
Here is how i feel about it: Storylines been (are generally speaking) great in the past maybe sometimes not evolving deep enough, sometimes felt poor, not linked with each others and sometimes simply thrown in?
The idea of having an evolving storylines that will last for years and years to come has to have in essence something entertaining all along (such as things that shouldnt change ie: Migration), new events, surprising things that were unexpected, just as much as when someone is watching a show like supernatural, lost or fringe there is always a link with the starting point and it is evolving without forgetting where it came from.
It became kinda granted in the community that the Mulmun species attack around that time of the year, they once did with a storyline behind it, lord kraster sending troops through black orbs (wormhole), etc with increasing force and intensity, anyone was pretty much entertained. whats up??? cant lord kraster have a son or a daughter that will be as bad as kim jong il and be our kim jong un or maybe it is time to get back on track with a new idea, new invader, new entertainement!
We were once attacked from outer space by the robots, they have changed the shape of our planet calypso for ever but yet (with the current meta is impossible, maybe in a close future), CDF wasnt not able to warn the population soon enough before being invaded for us to go in space and stop the fleet before it even reach us, ofc they will be too strong and then the war will keep going also on the ground while those brave colonist will fight in space.
Anyway here is the idea, i thought of a concept of having the players deciede which way they want the storyline to evolve into, you guys mentioned citizen voting? Isnt it the great opportunity we all have right now to lets say vote for a new 1 out of 2 or 3 presidents/governators/rickytheruler, each of them will have a particular storylines and plan to reshape some place of our continent, (following the cap corinth/icarus/Pa/hadesheim revamp), also and nonetheless some of the promised changes, one could be at first more concerned about pet, the other one would be military and so more into PK'ing, just adjust as you guys need.
My idea got shut down in the thinking Where is that new invaders, that awesome new brood of mob/robot or better aliens trying to invade our lovely planet.
Focusing on the evolving storyline is important i believe, staying nostalgic is absolutely not, the future as different as what we know so far could be indeed the greatest.
Once genesis ruled this then omegaton had it and now CDF is ricky the ruler (whatever i sum it up), blabla tommorow we elected this new guys and are now facing a new threat and he will be working on this and that side of the economy blablabla crafter gets this, miners get that, hunter feels this.
Alright thats pretty much it, storylines, something to forget we are shooting hitboxes untill they turn yellow, have fun and thx for your time.
