Please win me back today.
Please tell me something positive, do a 'reveal' on some upcoming roleplay oriented 'content'.
Please give us some more details about R2, something more concrete, like how 'deep' is the conversation window with NPCs. Give us some sample scenarios we could create with it.
Something, anything.
I really am willing to give this a chance still, I'm staying 'til R2 but a lot of people have left or are leaving who made the community what it is and you're still silent.
Wouldn't take that much to win a lot of us back, you done bad, now's the time to make up for it with flowers and chocolate.
Please?
Not expecting a reply here, but some sort of announcement, proper, where people can see it would be lovely.
Thanks.

I wanted a seperate one just to ask for something.
This is also hopeful, not an argument, not a flamewar. Nothing negative.
Just a straightforward 'please'.

Maybe on the 31st they will tell ghost stories like last year on the NA server
or the NPC will sell masks insted of helms for the day
In WoW at the moment you can go trick or treat at all the inns and you get little gifts like wands to put people in costumes and theres bobbing for apples n stuff. pumkinds are everywhere in the towns.
Know it dont mean much but fluff like this would bring a smile to my face in Ryzom though it would probbly push back outposts or w/e there working on back 6 months or something but surly it wouldnt take anything to add something like this.

And I can't believe you're having a go at him for trying to make a POSITIVE post!
At the end of the day, the biggest downside for me with EP2 is the damage I've seen it do to this game's biggest strength. The community. My greatest fear for the game is that Ryzom will never recover from that damage.
I agree totally with Jyudas, give us something other than more PvP please Nevrax! Give us something to look forward to and *maybe* we wont complain as much.
A holloween spectacular would have been cool and a much better use of the animators' time.

Hey m8,
Your absolutely right. Fluff like this would push other meaningful work back, you would be silly not to think that. We had stuff like this spattered in on occasion for 9 months, and all everyone did was complain about that, the fact that there was no content. (Candy sticks and Easter Eggs if I recall correctly.) Oh, 12 rites, and an invasion of Kitin that had more ***** about it than did EP2 even though it was PvE.
You will never make everyone happy. Nevrax has heard you, and has given positive news. They have said, sorry. They have said the content after the Outposts will be more PvE focused. If you would like, and I imagine the majority would not, they would stop working on the Outposts, and on the FvF zones, and you would get PvE content well, about 1 or 2 months earlier than you would have anyways. To boot you would get to hear an enormous amount of whinging that there is no content......
P.S. They are spending effort producing R2. (which btw is a major leap for any game) I imagine you(the gripers) have some major problems with this too though.
Noin (of saddened heart)
There is clearly a story reason why we are going this way. Work with or about it, not solely against it. There is a lot of RP to be had here without PvP in this event. And there are many who would love to participate.

Personally, I always saw things like this as evidence that Nevrax loved this game as much as we did. Nice little touches that gave people a laugh or made gameplay fun for a while.
The 'meaningful' work they're doing now shows their love has waned and now they just want more cash!

I must be missing something. Where was this announcement made? Just checked the news page, nothing but more PvP there.....

Nah it's more like they want more revenue by attracting the Woe of Warcraft crowd.
Darn it, I'm getting sucked into these debates again. Time to go back to PvW!
