There were 2 Graal2000s though; Graal2000 had marching orders to stagnate, and everyone who played it said I picked the wrong month to host, everything was better either a month before or after the levels pack hosted - and in any case, it doesn't count because people aren't forced to play it, therefore the playercount sucks, I should delete GtA and replace it wholesale with Graal2000+1Month, and also why isn't their playerhouse there?
So Graal2000b was a revision with orders to update like mad, and nobody liked that either, because obviously the LAT was corrupt to replace (insert name here) with (insert update here), and clearly Tyhm was mad to split the playerbase like that.
Then there was Nostalgia, which I was told wasn't anything like how Graal really was in the past, Graal was never sepia-toned. :-P And in any case, it spread the playerbase too thin. Always a problem on Classic; you need a small enough world to make people run into each other, but a big enough world that the people on quests tend to run them alone.
You know what'd be awesome though? If there was a way to overlay the various versions of Graal so people still run into each other without compromising their view of the world. Like, take the timeless common areas, Graal City and The Joint and Zol's, and whatever time you're coming from determines how the level appears To You, but as you walk into common area everyone else sees you fade in, and as you walk off to Master Li's Woods or Fuitad's Domain you fade out...ah, for a free hand in such matters... |
