The thing is, I agree with all of you. The encyclopedia would be fantastic as a quest alternative, if it was ever finished. And Gillest's idea is great too, if balanced so OPs are still worth fighting over.
Gameforge/Nevrax has started so many fun projects that would provide nice gameplay without taking away the freedom Ryzom players are used to. I wish they have manpower to complete them.
Recently, my distraction have been researching the Hawkers' inventory, some have really great stuff you know. I should be more systematic though.

ex-nay on the hawker-nay!!!
*coughs*
How many people do you think they have in the "dev team" ?
-most- everything we've been promised gets canceled way before it comes out.
and hey, they have the ring now right? wasn't that supposed to make it MUCH easier to implement new things directly into the game? did they not have an invasion in the Ring (it was INSANE!!) the very month R2 came out? did it not work wonderfully? where's the results of all THAT ? from what i've seen - we had that kitin event that half of us missed, but nothing more "Physically rewarding" than the titles.
if i seriously thought they'd do what they said - and take into account homin-created ring scenarios to implement into the real game - i would spend 90% of my time in the ring. as it is - its not worth the trouble. no rewards, buggy!!, and for me - i keep falling out of the ring every time i try to join someone's scenario!!

Re: Accomplish something every session
Just scanning over this since I'm a bit busy but here it is.
I really do think pure and simply it's not just lack of quests or any one thing thats causing the trouble. It's just that lack of the dreaded 'C' word in general...
People who last in this game longer than 6Months-1Yr are a freak of nature or have probably made lots of nice friends and find it hard to leave.
I increasingly find myself logging in and then not wanting to do anything because I've done it all before. Thats not always the case of course, I become motivated again now and then, the boredom is just becoming more regular...
This is a great game for newcomers, but not so much for the old timers.

Re: Accomplish something every session
Im getting seriously worried about reaching the end of this game , which like others have said is having nothing to motivate me to log in , heh theres always the grind ofc but im finding it harder to get into.
Ive got afew usefull Combat Alts now but OP Wars are getting tedious with the current trend being for alot of short duration battles at all hours , would love a Kitin Invasion like last Novembers to get stuck into but please GF not in every Region -give those who dont want to take part somewhere they can go n do normal stuff
Encyclopedia !!!!! Yes Yes Yes!!!!11111oneoneone lol
not so sure about GF's idea on the Silan like Missions , im sure these would give Uber like Rewards , sure good for short term gratification but bad for the long term game.
Other Rewards for Missions - give Honor Points you can spend at Temples and get something youd actualy like (dont use Cats myself
), also add in OP Mats as one of those Temple Reward options (at a high price ofc) , this gives Temples a use again AND another way into the OP Crafting side -more use of whats all ready ingame
