I'm pretty sure everyone thinks their opinion is right. Otherwise it wouldn't be there opinion.

At least, thats my opinion. Which is right.

LOL good quality quests are not that hard to make... it just takes some creativity in how you wanna kill the players trying to complete it, and then make things fun...

Why do some of you people (mostly just old classic players) WANT QUESTS?
WHY?
Why do you want quests, whats so fun about ***** 2d puzzles that arent fun at all.
Even if they were SOMEWHAT fun, how fun can they possibly be?
If you want quests so bad just go play WoW or the actual Zelda games.
All I see "quests" doing to classic atm, is just wasting the Developers time.
Theres a **** load of other content that could be created instead of working with stupid scripts to create garbage time wasters like Sardon, and Gnome quests.

Someone seriously tell me their opinion on quests because im confused as ****.

If you dont want quest go play another game?

Quest's a part of graal. End of story.

I don't think he is saying he doesn't want quests at all.
I think he is trying to say there are other things to focus on besides quests that are more important right now.
Perhaps providing a fun atmosphere to play in outside of events that Classic has clung to life on for so many years.

Quests establish a hook to draw in new players into the server, long enough to establish themselves within the community and make Classic their home.
Right now we don't have new players coming in, since we are so low on the serverlist. Most new players will opt into picking UN/Era/Zod over us by a longshot, and if they do come here, there isnt much of a community to fit into, so most end up leaving. It isn't any fun to play by yourself.

What is there basically to do on Graal besides actually playing (completing quests).
If their wasn't any quests Graal would basically be a big Chat Room imo.

DarkCloud_PK 03-24-2009 01:47 PM

quests are usually a one time thing. unless you redo the same ones over and over via reset or new/trial account. quests are a part of the game, but we're asking right now, what is there to do after those quests? what keeps people around after the quests?

the answer right now is not a whole hell of a lot.

No hes questioning the whole idea with quests. Maybe this is why they have GC LATs too...

DarkCloud_PK 03-24-2009 02:10 PM

They have GC LATs for that endgame, but it isn't supposed to be 100% GC endgame.
However, Night frequently has gotten lucky with being able to have a stable personal scripter(essentially the GC LAT, it hasn't really ever been a team, just one or two of us) or two at his disposal during the last few years while the LAT Teams had their ups and downs, which turned endgame content into the heavily GC controlled area it is now. It was never meant to be that way, things were never planned for such a large gc content and portion to the server, and such has spiraled out of control.

For such a long expanse of time that this has been the way, it changed how the server operated, and not for the better in the long run.

But as I've explained before, I personally like quests, but they do take considerable time to make unless you're not considering quality at all into it.
The long term goal should be for a bunch of quests, both new and old and all in between.
However, the short term should be concentrating on getting out of the stagnation we've been in as far as content in general, and quests just don't do that as effectively as other things.
