Next generation of playerworlds?

Am I the only one noticing playerworld owners are actually starting to put effort into their pw?

Most of the playerworlds currently up are completely disgusting, most of them have no players, most of them have nothing good to show.. It's like nobody cared much about the pw, they just wanted it online to fool around on and say "hi im a playerworld owner!"

But it seems the new playerworlds that are being developed are trying to set a better standard.. (I know I'm trying to) I think most people will agree with me that most of the playerworlds up now are a waste of space, and not worth 10 minutes.

I think that the current playerworld developers, should strive to make a wonderful playerworld, so that any playerworld developers to come will see what standards they need to meet. Because at the moment, the standards are VERY low. If a playerworld goes up that kicks ass, I think it will make way to a new generation of playerworlds. What do you think?

Yeah its ture, although I been putting effort into mine for the last year...but then again, only me and Shadrock had serious PW projects.

Alot of other PWs being developed looks very promising, and I expect they will replace current PWs when ready, if Stefan is smart.

I for one know I am trying to make a great PW, Faheria seems to be doing the same, and same with you. Plus, Spanky, his PW looks very nice...there are about 4 or 5 PW projects which I believe will be very good.

This will only be true if the staff doesn't stop doing new great stuff...
I take Providence as an example:
At the beginning they had much great stuff and ideas but then many person quit working and there was nothing new so a server with much potencial got "lost"...
But I really hope there will be a great PW with good ideas and real RPG somewhere in the future...

Well, the best thing to do right now is make an rpg server and start off early, such as mideval, then gradually work your way up to the present... Or it can be a Fantasy server such as Final Fantasty and Chrono Trigger (The one with the talking frog)

This will allow it to grow and to be based on a plot, then making diffrent sub-plots and quests withen the story... Such as my server

I agree with you Kondias (not sure if i spelt it right =S)

Only servers i think that are worth staying on right now that look promising are
Divided Kingdoms
Farhaira (i know i didnt spell that one right 0.o)
and Dorogon..=S
Frolice is getting there.

the rest all suck , even the server i play the most n-pulse. and the other problem is too many ppl are trying to make servers... and less staff is avaible for those servers which probably would do the best....

Yes i have noticed that too they a re putting much effort into it,
But some player worlds that are up are doibg there best to improve there playeworld. Un is doing aggreat deal to improve there levels and intorduce better levels and NPCs,
The one thing you arent focusing on is the aspect that playerworlds ARE teying there best to improve the quality of ther playerworld (or at least UN is)

Yeah, I HATE the trashcans too. I did them quickly just to get an idea of what it would look like.

I thought the body and head were okay, but I guess they could be fixed up a little.

But try to remember I just started this a few weeks ago.

*Edit*
Changed it a little.

We have been working very hard to fix up all of Ice Pick's errors on Delteria, scripting original (not stolen) npc's, making a completely new overworld, and making lots of new quests. Also, we are testing a new RP Region, which is a section completely devoted to RPing... So before you start to run/make fun of Delteria, wait and see when everything is complete, which will probably be in a few weeks.

I think the reason all these people are putting effort into they're PWs, is because of such high quality servers that look so damn good are having a good effect on people.

PWs such as:
Mura
Oasis
Faheria
that other one that the one guy was just showing

Konidias your playerworld is like , WOW!
I mean when I look into your signature I just can't wait for your plyerworld the grapfics are wonderful , I would love it if you would do a turnbased style fighting like fina fantasy that would just own graal now , but that would be very hard to thought ..
But from the screenshots or gfx I have seen now graal 2002 is owned!
[edit]The playerworlds like murasamune, oasis, graal2230 and faheria are forcing the other playerworlds to get better and improve and that is really good , your servers are takeing graal to the next step!
btw when I look at oasis it makes me think of legend of mana

lol thanks.

You mean secret of mana? That's one of my favorite snes games I think what the problem with most pw's is, is that they don't spend enough time in the development stage.. they go straight to the construction step.. instead of planning ahead, the y get a basic story, basic idea, and then make a big generated world and start putting houses and trees wherever they see fit.

Oasis is going to be designed out before the levels are even constructed, and it will really show when you see the finished map.

Seiken Dentetsu nice game...
hmmm... well shall I say that having a huge amount of development time would never make your PW up (like mine been working for 1 year) (I can't play Graal as I live on a dorm so I script and make levels instead) well just want to say if you take too long time for development, in some times you'll lose interest especially if you've nobody recognitions (like me). well I'm working for another PW now (another SUX PW project abandon(mine)).

Should I contine on with my project later or shall I work on other pw BTW this is my map of one of my village (bear in mine this is non P2P)

I dunno what's it named secret of mana or wahtever but I love it!!I downloaded the translated version ones to my snes emulator and it's one of the best games ..(I think)

and Keep up the good work konidias!
*Dreams about kinidias showing some screenshots*

[edit]If evry server would make there own character design and grapfixs and then put much more effort into how levels and things look like you do , graal would rock![/edit]

Ok I disagree with oasis looking like SOM. SOM graphics are excellent, the sprites are great...oasis is more of an enhanced graal gfx. They aren't to SOM, they aren't near the style of SOM.
