Actually.. technically speaking... Most board games DO NOT require a board.. just like you don't need dice, just a random number generator. truthfully speaking, the way combat works on games is nothing more than board games simplified, though I'm sure you probably knew that already =). rock beats paper, paper covers rock, water extinguishes fire.. simple =) Roll the dice to see what number you get, if you land on free parking, you get a critical... simple. There are actually many successful games that don't have maps however, but, most of the truly great ones had explorable maps. however, most cookie-cutter mmorgps nowadays consider "exploring" to be a fault since most griefers don't like to think for themselves. A great deal of the non-map or blackened-map games lie within MMORTS games these days, however, It would be nice to see them make a comeback in rpgs.

No.
But it does have a musical flushing toilet. My own personal MMORPG in development, built off the PlaneShift MMORPG |

You don't get it at all, do you? Planeshift is NOT a game. It is an interractive fantqasy setting where people can forget lvling, gridning, becoming bigger and badder and all that crap and just kick back, relax, have some fun. This is a place for people to roleplay, to create interesting stories. build meaningfull communities and really give vent to the creative flame within them. Having a map is simply unrealistic. I mean how can a person in a medieval world have a minimap floating above his head? Or be able to bring up a COMPLETE map of the world and see his postion in it at his will. Please, that's just stupid. This is Ropleplay my friend, Roleplay. Sigh...people have lost the old spirit where elves and dwarves would stand shoulder to shoulder and fight the evil of an approaching orc army. Nowadays all that you people want is to have a lvl 100 character with a Divine Armor set and a lvl 50 weapon or some such stuff. If you want that, why don't you just go play other games and leave this one alone? No one is ASKING you to play it, you know. Instead of leaving thesem comments you could have just clicked away. But if you stay and flame PS, know that I will be there to take you down. Give respect, get respect. Keep that in mind. "Don't like it? Don't play. But keep your darned mouth shut, please..." |

Originally posted by kaylors Your initial statement is somewhat debatable. Allow me to quote the first line from the "What is Planeshift" page on the main site: "PlaneShift is a Role Playing Game" Also: "There are no limitations in skills, ranks, abilities, items you can gain" If it wasn't a game there wouldn't be a need for skills, equipment, monsters to fight, etc. |

It sounds like an advertisement for a 3d chat world but is it?? What planeshift is pure and simple, is a game controlled by a few high level players that have control over developement, and administration that will hinder and discourage at every opputunity and sometimes even outright ban any player trying to advance into the upper echelons. The community that makes up the upper levels of Planeshift is a community that existed before Planeshift. Anytime you hear someone talking about roleplay, spoilers, community, UTOPIA, it's always one of these high level players spouting this crap. Just ask how you as a player can advance to their level and hear how it's not about advancing or leveling, it's about being part of the experience...............sound familiar??????????? It's not about advancing or leveling, but of course, You can't really enjoy the UTOPIA until you do. And then there is the excuse that tis game is just in developement. In developement for who?? And just exactly what is being tested?? If you ever care to find out for yourself, just join planeshift as a low level player, and experience the UTOPIA!!! |

I wouldn't have ever been interested in this game had you not posted about it. Before this post I had no idea that this game even existed.
