Ryzom

Interesting reads, both your post and the one from grimjim. Do you happen to know whether there is any data on how the playerbase usually divides into the four Bartle types or the three GNS types? I am aware that there are people for which a single type does not capture the full character, but ...

Roninpvp explained about the honour points. The points of honour will be used for the end of Episode 2 to buy the rewards. As for the rehashed, "Don't like it? Don't go there!"; ...the original game is still intact. You can still grind until you pass out. No one will bother you. Woohoo! Finally ...

There have been a bunch of threads recently which have mentioned harvesters being treated differently to non-harvesters. (Things like how players 'con' and honour points jump to mind.) People have rarely continued to think through the ramifications of their ideas though. They seem to give up at the ...

Give Sehraci bonus points please. She's the opposite faction to me, she saw me walking around exploring, unarmed and unarmoured. (I was hoping to find something about the region that wasn't just KotH fps - I didn't find anything). She cast stun on me, so I sat down to show I wasn't interested in ...

I'm not bashing your decision to leave, holstad. I'm thinking about it myself too (for different reasons). Just take care what you base your decision on though. In one of your posts you are asking when these changes will come, 'before Christmas?' and then a couple of posts later you complain that ...

There is so much here to comment on that I had better limit myself! It's not as though I would recognise a short reply if I was run over by one... So, first comments on player analysis and resulting game design as applicable to SoR; Amongst RPG writers there is a much talked about theory of game ...

Not so much 'with you' as ahead of you. I walked around unarmed for a while last night. I didn't survive for many minutes on any of these journeys. I was even bravely assaulted by a group of eight twice (different groups). None of my assailants seemed to even pause to think at all, never mind learn ...

In that case, get your a** over to Guildwars, that should be the game for you then. That's a very good recommendation - GW is an excellent PvP system. SoR isn't. I've done a chunk of Ryzom PvP. The overwhelming factor in a battle's outcome is weight of numbers. I don't expect strategy to really ...

They call it that in SoR too - I just don't see the relationship

I think the word 'honour' is being used in some new way that I haven't come across before...
