What's all the rise on Graal with guns about?

Thallen · #1 06-09-2003, 01:08 PM

I've noticed that it seems the servers with the gun-style genre (Bravo Online, Era) are getting a big portion of people crowding the server. Era was the first, and along has come Bravo Online, which in my opinion is a complete ripoff of Era. So, why all of a sudden is Graal developing this gangster style? I don't consider these 2 playerworlds actually Graal servers. I assumed Graal was a medieval-like RPG game, like the website shows. Era and Bravo Online add variety to Graal, but I'm not sure if Graal and guns should have ever mixed. So I mean, what's the deal, what do you guys think about these servers?

Both were ripoffs of the ideas of Graal 2230

Obviously it is what most teeneagers want since they are flocking there

They take away everything Graal is about in my eyes

It was a masterful idea, and anyone who says otherwise is a foolish PW owner. Graal needs variety, graal does not need the classic common crap, 2 at most so it is not so repetitive.

This has NOTHING to do with guns. Nothing, at all. Want to know what it is? Completely new, original graphics. Completely original ideas, concepts. Guns? To the common eye maybe.

Soon enough you will understand, when PWs with better graphics, better ideas, better concepts, better gameplay come out. All those gun servers are simply primitive worlds compared to a few upcoming.

It gives players a more modern version of graal. As you may have noticed much of the youth today is brought up with the understanding that violence is very much acceptable. Era (and it's ripoff), succeed only because people are following what they have been brought up to believe is ok. I myself enjoy Era (and only Era), very much because of this, and give it 5 stars for appealing to the public's intersts.

Maybe so, but I never knew of that. And considering 2230 looks to be UC/Private for along time, I'd say it was good that someone used the idea. Anyhow aren't there guns like futuristic.

Era isn't remotely realistic. You don't go around with guns in real life and shoot everything you see.

And going around with a character that is 4/5 the size of a house is? Or same thing, someone wth a sword slashing everything...
Not every game is aimed to touch realism.

protagonist · #10 06-09-2003, 08:30 PM

No, but that is what Era is supposed to do, by the looks of it.

Besides that the server has a brilliantly placed no-pk-zone 3 miles from the respawn house.

Wasn't my idea Xx;;;

lol j/p.

I agree with you, sometimes its good to get away from the defualt sword swinging tiles and shoot some graalians, I like era becuse the graphics are orginal and you need to work for your money.

I honestly think it wont work that way. Nobody wants complex systems and role-playing and rules to gameplay, and complex levels and GFX. They only want to press D or S and Kill. Players of graal will be some what interested in what is to be offered, but I dont see any reason why people wont just do what they always do and dismiss what you have and go back to their normal servers. Im sure servers like that can get about 50-60 but Era and UN with no complex over the top meaning will still get over 100... why you ask? Because thats what players want, simple, to the point, action, that looks good, but isnt going to be complex. Of course, I could be all wrong, we will just have to wait (How ever long that will be, ZZZZzzzz....

) to test my theory.
