So why don't make more out of it then just a engine? Regular added Spritesheets, Graphics and Tilesets could make the whole situation better and would lead more playerworlds to success, instead of 100 playerworlds bought and 98 failing because of the lack of gfx.
=> Create a GFX pool and Script pool
=> More playerworlds will succeed
=> More content, and probaply more players
Why? Because a team of 2 guys could have a real chance to create something good, other then 2 guys right now, who would need more companions to really start something successfull. Right now, it's close to impossible or impossible to find a good gfxer who is not already working for ten other playerworlds or just working for money.

Dude your right on the money. However i believe that good graphics artist dont see graal as a viable option to get there work out there. Player base is low compared to other games and it costs money to play/host your own work. I think if that were to change, more quality artists/coders etc would see graal as a worthwhile platform.
Also if the pricing was to change and as a result more players joined then more quality peoples would result.
You are soo right with making more then just an engine. couldnt agree more.
