Mythic Legends
Currently named Project Mythic

Mythic is a playerworld with a medieval/fantasy design, and with the main intent of providing players with a place where you won't just be doing endless of hours with grinding to reach what you want.

You'll be able too:

Level your character(s)

Duel/spar players for fun and/or prizes

Roleplay

"WHAT!? BLASPHEMY! DID HE SAY ROLEPLAY??" - indeed I did. While we will not enforce roleplaying, we will definitely encourage it in any way we can.

When you create a character, it will have to be named something descent* and not something like KyleXY, IownYoFacez etc. If we find any character that breaks this, we will force it to be renamed.

In a way, we're doing some rather unique things. We'll have...

Custom bodies

Turn Based Combat

Real Life day/night cycle that affects your surroundings and NPCs

... and much more. I could really go on and on about things, but why don't you log on and tell us what you think instead? Any input, be it good or bad, is appreciated. If you're interested in helping out, send me a message! See the attachments below for some screen shots.

* - More on this later.

Your GUIs are rather ugly ...

The house looks really flat, may need to work on that.

Otherwise, looks good. It's nice that you're trying to get a RP server, but I don't think enforcing names is a good idea. This is, in a way, forcing roleplaying, which will turn people away from your server.

Forcing people to have descent names is in no way similar to forcing people to roleplay their characters.

And, as you see, it's the default GuiBlue - meaning we haven't made one ourself yet.

Will be GuiBitmapButtonCtrl's later on, with custom images. You'll see!

I still think forcing people to have a realistic name (e.g. Chris Zakuto) is in a way forcing roleplaying since that is a large part of roleplaying.

But still, looks nice. I will come check it out some time, assuming it is not staff-only.

Only time it ever is, is if I decide to do some major changes in the mudlib.

Forcing decent names, I assume you will force people to not name themselves something from a popular tv show?

..naruto..

great idea, pretty bad levels..

Will depend from case to case really. Name's like "Alf" will be allowed - it might be an old popular TV show, but it's also a very old nordic name - while names like "Naturo" and "Link" are obvious cases.

I call Naruto001.

You said you won't force RP but you want "decent" names. That's dumb...

Agreed, though it won't affect me anyway.

I should get on and set my name as like "LOLNARUTOFTW!!!!!!!!" and see if I get banned, just to annoy people

I better not, people might get mad at me

I am 100% for decent names, maybe disable numbers and special characters in names altogether? Is this even possible?

Of course it's possible, the main thing is he said he would not force RP, yet this is a way of helping to force roleplaying.

I fully support monitoring names, and having players stick with one name they choose. I never understood being able to completely change your name to whatever you want whenever you want.

xXziroXx · #13 05-12-2008, 02:12 PM

While I DID say I would not force RP, I did say that I would encourage it anyways I can - forcing descent names is one of the ways. And no, it won't be banable for having a wrong name, you will simply be forced to rename your character.

Naruto is "steamed fish" in Japanese, and not a name, and Uzumaki is "rolled up", so not a name either.

Despite that, it's not what most people will associate it with.

And guys, please, stop being obsessed about Naruto in every thread I post in - you weren't spamming stuff about Final Fantasy 8 when I had a Squall avatar, no need to start with Naruto now that I have a Gaara avatar. Thanks.

More criticism please!
