Netphreak 510 Share Posted June 5, 2014 This seems to be quite a common thing I've been reading... A counter argument for RP mechanics, "It stops all forms of Powergaming and Metagaming." The reason people powergame and metagame so frequently on this server and call for PVP is specifically due to the fact that PVP is infact default. My point here, the new players are not getting any experience if they come on and just decide to PVP default everyone because that is absolute, they are not being taught as I have been taught when RP'ing. I cannot possibly expect anyone to understand fully how to avoid Metagaming or Powergaming without actually learning how to avoid it rather "PVP DEFAULT *click click click gain items done* What did we learn? Nothing.. They might have gotten a finger cramp from the clicking but... In all seriousness, RP default forced people to watch what they were doing, to make sure it was quality, and to actually grow with their RP skill, PVP default doesn't do this, yes I agree it is quicker, yes it does rid of the powergaming and metagaming, but all the time? Absolute? There is no growth.. It all becomes insanity. I prefer the majority rule, it actually was something I supported, why we moved out from that rule, confuses me to the point of melting. Please do understand... It takes a while to learn but once people learn how to Rp and do things properly, this server will be so much more fun and creative.. No more seeing Iron everywhere you turn, or constant spamming of shouts. There would be no more hiding to shun the fear of someone coming along and ruining your peaceful RP session because your character is wearing a hood and they want to kill you for it, so absolute PVP it is.. Please consider the Majority Rule, or as most would say... "Give it a chance." (And then forget about it and leave it there.) 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeonXCG 40 Share Posted June 5, 2014 Honestly, yes I can agree with the fact that PvP does make thing's quicker, but really, it's just the fact that people jump straight right to it instead of considering RP. I'd rather just keep PvP more towards the wars since there are so many people involved and it would be difficult to keep up with. One vs One or Two vs Two on the other hand should just be RP since it's not such a pain to keep up with. I say give RP default a trial run and see out it goes. If people like it, then keep it. If they don't, then trash it or save it for another time in the future. That is all I have to say on this topic. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
WuHanXianShi14 0 Share Posted June 5, 2014 No matter what the default is half the server will be displeased. Look at the poll it's almost entirely 50/50 Bring back majority default. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
