Re: Looking for a new mud to play
My big problem with Squaresoft is that when you get to level, say, 25 or so, and you go through the Chrono Trigger story, you find that bike dude. And he tells you to kill over 9000 robots. What? Over 9000? This machine must be malfunctioning! Yeah, more like 90 or so. Lol. But yeah, you go all down that road, killing bots, and you get to the end, and… Oh hey, um, there's like, 10 more to kill but… They're not there. So you look around, no bots. So you ask on chat, and it turns out that you have to just wait for the mobs to respawn in order to kill more of them because what kind of an end to a quest would it be if you could actually end it in one go? But don't worry, there are like, five other worlds to explore hehe, you won't get bored here…
My main problem with all that is that if you are focused on an objective, like killing all 90 of those bots because an arbitrarily large number is a great way to waste a person's time enough for it to feel like a good quest or mission. And don't think about how there is no other story content going on while you kill and kill and wait, just make this counter reach 90! Right meow! Oh, you ran out of enemies? Well hurry up and wait!
Ugh, I can't wait until End of time:
is fully accessible, the overworked map still needs work. I hope it feels more fully fleshed out and professional than a lot of other MUD's I've played so far. Still gotta try Erion though. Maybe that one will be good enough.
