Arathandamus 9 Share Posted January 7, 2012 Okay, so I know *cough*almost*cough* everyone is getting hyped up about Aegis 2.0. Me too! I don't blame you. It's awesome. Plus, the new world is built around the large playerbase we have. Anyway, not to go off-topic. I've been wandering around for a while looking for Random RP and it doesn't seem to happen often. Apart from bandits, of course. But even they don't happen often. So, usually, I wander aimlessly. <_< Going off topic again! So, I was just wondering, since I like wandering and random RP, it can be an awesome RP experience to talk to IC strangers 'n' stuff. Will RP be centered in the Cities? You see, while trying not to sound like a bum, I'd prefer Legendary Quality RP with one friend anyday, rather than Mediocre Quality RP with a bunch of people that are more like a disorganized mob. Not saying you cant RP with loads of people, it's just hard to without pre-planning. So, I will most likely be travelling, seeing Aegis 2.0 without buildings cluttering everywhere, and visiting random towns etc. But, if RP is aimed to be centered in the cities, does that mean, apart from bandits, I will meet even less random RP on the road than before? I'm asking this question to both GM and Players, and while I think that this new world is gonna be awesome, and I am hoping for more conflict, does this mean it is unsafe without a group, thus extremely hard/impossible to find Random RP? I really need to know, since I establish all my ties through Random RPers. Just like how I managed to randomly RP on WoW, got an engineering night elf chick and roamed around, ICly slaying Vanilla Old World Dragons with some other Elves that were in a guild. We would go around for ages, travelling, exploring, all that c***. All through one person's random RP. So, please, will Random RP outside cities and towns be killed off? If I can know, then I don't have to spend fruitless hours searching for it -.- EDIT : Also, post what you think about guilds/organizations like the Military or whatnot. Do THEY enhance your RP experience? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pliz 66 Share Posted January 7, 2012 I think there will always be a bit of people on the roads, especially right when 2.0 comes out, as everyone will want to see the world. I like random RP as-well, and it's usually better RP then in the capital cities. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Etienne Harken 11 Share Posted January 7, 2012 I believe it's all based on the players. Some of us will be more wander-y. But, a lot of people are simply goal centered, so they don't just wander about, looking for RP. Can't say how the RP situation'll look, but I imagine it'll be more town based, and event based ,what with the whole Mori'Quessor bit, and all the resettling. I'm afraid it's all I can really offer on the matter. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But mebbe after a few weeks people will start looking for more and more random RP... * throws a coin into a well and wishes hard * Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
loakmendbe 62 Share Posted January 7, 2012 With all of the new things and the supposed beautiful world your bound to find more people on the roads then before... Its a larger more beautiful map being said by GM's So I wouldn't worry.. This map will defiantly enhance Role play Much More... P.S: I think it is also based on how people center their characters, I know I will be traveling a bit more, rather then being stuck in one city all the time!

Faeyin 9 Share Posted January 7, 2012 While we would like to center people in the actual nations, rather than out in the wilds, there is no way to force people to stay in one specific area. But as others have said, there will be more travel-RP at the start, as the races travel to claim their land for their new nation and as people venture out to explore. But keep in mind the capital cities are fairly big, and there are more of them; So depending on where you go you may have awesome RP, or lots of newer RPers. The Morri'Quessir, for example, will have our own city and we will have a small group of dedicated RPers as our noble houses, so there will be good RP there always.

Grabthar 185 Share Posted January 7, 2012 I love great RP. And this map should help to enhance the RP that already exists while adding new things to interact with. I for one will be spending most of my time as an Innkeeper. Should get me plenty of random encounters as the cities are farther apart and staying at a small roadside in through the night will be needed for any travel. I also want to point out that Inner-city RP will go up as well. The capitals are amazing, and the availability of topics to RP about should be amazing as well. I have been planning some new world events, lore, and locations that I hope everyone gets to take part in. Don't worry good citizens of Aegis... The new world will be truly fantastic. It is being built with RP as a core design element. As it should be. :) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
