Although it feels quite pointless to ask people not to go on any flaming frenzies within this thread, I still ask it please don't change this positive thread into a negative one, thank you
Heh, still was worth a try Vaynen...

Grats calling someone you don't know a liar, Meyithi.
*applauds*


I also claim it rocks, the content isn't in? Where's the problem? There's a "on" swith on your brain, use it to put your imagination to work.
Let's go kick those kitins in the rear as a pre-emptive strike, and let those pay for all the homins their specie killed!
And then let's go hunt some yubos, we'll craft warm boots with their fur for cold winters, and sell these to Matis lands so they can run through snow without getting cold feet.

This game already rocks, and i'm looking forward to patch 2 to make it even better :)

The content isnt in yet?

My god, what have I been doing all this time? Did I imagine all the missions, exploring, hunting, harvesting, crafting, trading and the like that I have done. Are my memories of battles with various nasty monsters the result of the ingestion of mind-altering substances? If this game had no content I would have managed to log in and do what exactly? How did the people who are level 200+ get there with no content I wonder....hack the server to up their level?

/sarcasm off

Sure we want more quests, most of us are looking forward to the G v G and Outposts but to say the content isn't there is preposterous. We have oodles of skills to test and develop, lands to explore, weird and wonderful creatures to do battle with, dozens and dozens of items to create, mats to find, fame missions to make a name for ourselves. I'd like to see more, and in time I'm sure we'll get it. But in the meantime there's plenty of things to keep me having fun.

Just some of the reasons I think it rocks - beautiful graphics, a world that is truly alive, customizable actions, no restrictions through template choice, great community, original scenario, l33t p1k35 0f d00m and a hot chick on the front of the box...I could go on but I'm gonna go and play cos I love it ;)

What can you do apart from kill mobs over and over, chat and craft?

The content isn't in yet! So how can the game rock?

So you are either lying or easily (very easily) pleased. And I'm not saying Ryzom is a bad game, but to say it rocks in it's current state is pathetic.

There's content everywhere and its made by the players. That's one of the best things about this game. The players can make the content. So what if the additional bits that come from Nevrax aren't in. That's not what interests me anyhow. What I'm interested in is what the players come up with.

The players are the story. That's the best part. No other game could ever claim as much.

You are all talking about generic MMORPG content, you know, the content every other MMORPG has that defines it as an MMORPG.

Above that, where is the content that makes Ryzom "Rock!"?

Quests, the game defining quests are not in the game yet, those "quests" in now are pathetic, basic "collect" this or "Kill" that. Hands down beaten by every other MMORPG in the market on this count. Won't always be this way but as for now, how can Ryzom "Rock!" in comparrison to other MMORPG's when the quest system isn't in yet?

"There's content everywhere and its made by the players. That's one of the best things about this game. The players can make the content. So what if the additional bits that come from Nevrax aren't in. That's not what interests me anyhow. What I'm interested in is what the players come up with.

Erm, that's what defines an RPG, you know, "Role Playing Game"! If that's one of the the best things about this game, then Ryzom is in trouble, because you are supposed to do that IN EVERY RPG OR IT AINT AN RPG!!! <Bangs head against wall>.

"The players are the story. That's the best part. No other game could ever claim as much."

Eh? Did I hear that right? No other game could clam as much? LOL! That's the same for every MMOG ever, never mind MMORPG! OMG!

Good gravy, I can't beleive somebody really said that! That just proves my point about Fanboi's hands down, I'm off now, I need not say any more, that says it all....

Erm... well, as far as computer based RPGs go no, that's not true. Even MMORPGs lack severely when it comes to player made content, rather spoonfeeding you plot, assigning you quests and so on. Player input is minimal. Thus far I've found Ryzom far more accomodating of player's ideas an event set ups, very supportive and helpful.

The only place you'll find truly player created/interactive games is in tabletop RPGs and _perhaps_ some games of Neverwinter Nights.

Well, I said it would be pointless to ask, and someone proved me right hehe..
Still only one person here that tried to drag this thread into the dark abyss of negativity, many thanks to everyone here to keep it up, high and flying!

It seems that everyone who posted negative things about Ryzom, responded in a condescending manner to others who said Ryzom wasn't that bad at all.

I think it's that WYSIWYG mentality that narrows a lot of people's view of things. Even those who have left, saying they had no reason to stay anymore, still claimed though that "Ryzom has potential"
I'll be here to see that potential come through!

Thanks for this post, Zzei!

I hadn't seen that before! It's awesome! And now with the upcoming Goo and Kami <> Karavan opposition things will get really hot!

I love it already, and it can only get bigger and better!
