The problem is, removing the npc server and new scripting means the server has little hack protection as many things would be clientside. I guess a server full of hackers is fun for you though? Hiring people to watch out for hackers is a waste of resources.

It was fine when classic was like the only server around... because nobody had anywhere else to play, and everyone was focused on that one server. That's not the case anymore, and it never will be. Get over it. Personally I think you have the right direction just the wrong idea of what is making Graal less fun.

It's not that Graal wouldn't work as a FUN mmorpg, it's that the servers being released are not for "everyone" which they should be. Zone for example... I do not like it at all. I don't like the futuristic stuff or the guns. I'm sure many people agree. So there is a server which is wasted on like half of the Graalian population.

Then you have GK. Which was supposed to be greater than 2k1. But it's not, because they just cloned a lot of things from other MMORPGs, and over time it's lost the feeling of Graal. It would be equal to taking Zelda and adding in like 100 different weapons and like 100 items for alchemy and armor and nothing but monster slaying and removing all of the fun puzzle quests and such. That's what GK is... I mean, where are the fun quests? It's all about power gaming and killing monsters. It's too dark and complicated for the average person. Not many people who liked Graal classic want to play that kind of game. If they did, they'd go elsewhere.

But Graal could be great if they simply improved on what made Graal fun in the first place. Community, quests, sparring, guilds, fun new content. (not just new sword graphics and monsters) and most importantly... simple to understand gameplay and moving away from "stats". It's not that we should bring back old classic... All the content is ancient and the server was never that well put together... It's just that Graal has gone in the wrong direction in terms of what attracted players to Graal in the first place.
