What "I" want.

ephron

What I'd love to have in an MMO...

1) Various mounts(Chocobos, dragons, wyverns, bears!)

2) Mount breeding(you aquire 2 mounts of the same race opposite sex and they mate, offspring can be stronger or weaker)

3) Mount racing(oh yeah! I fell in love with choco racing in FF7, I did it for endless hours in that game, I'd do it for endless months in an MMO)

4) A skill system inplace of a class system (see below for a better explantion)

5) A high death penalty(I don't like carebear systems that cater to whiners, its exp lose all the way)

6) Full Reign PVP(much like in WoW, if I, like many other players, got wind of someone camping lowbies, we go tune his ass up, gangbang with a side of corpse camp style)

7) A system that encourages veteran players to spend time with newer players, like showing them the ropes.  Making new players feel welcome to a world in which they are 'the new guy/girl' is a very nice thing, and though a whole lot of people, and i mean a lot of people already do help new players out I'd like to see some kind of encouragment system.

8) Weekly Dev to Player chats where they actually answer game questions(as a player i'll endure quite a bit, if only i'm told why)

9) High stakes(non-instanced) named mobs, solo, group and raid level.

10) Exp chains(i've never had more fun exp grinding then I did in XI)

11) EXP Grinding(i did the whole quest thing in WoW twice to 60, quest grinding makes me sick, sometimes i want to sit there and watch a movie while making exp, and no i dont think this is detramental to a game, I WANT THIS AS A VIABLE GROUP OPTION.

Explantions

Basically when it comes to mounts I want a healthy amount of choices ranging from what they look like, to how they move(land, air, sea) to what attributes they may have or bonuses they may or may not add.  I also want a breeding and racing system.  This is something that can be very fun, I know that in FF7 I loved mount breeding and racing.  It might not be a system for everyone but I know that enough people would love it to have it in a game.  I'd also like to see the mount racing in a gold saucer.  It might seem that I am filating squaresoft here, and I am a huge fan of the FF series.  But that aside.  A large, artistly designed building that houses an arena, a racing track and various other mini games to enjoy for leisure would be a great thing that games lack.  Large social gathering areas are always nice, so long as lag is kept to a minimum and mobility is kept at a maximum.

As far as teh skill system instead of a class system.  I'd like to see all skills listed in a connection chart where some require other skills to be learned before they are unlocked but ultimatly allowing a freedom of choice as to allow for a real customobility that no mainstream MMO to date has.  Players can be self proclaimed warriors, or there can be predescribed class labling based on what skills they learn and of what level(see dungeon siege).

As far as a high stakes mobs,  I like racing others for loot, its fun, its competetive, and i like it.  A lot of people like it. Some don't and that's fine, they should go play WoW it suites them.  I want to race, I want a competition.

In regards to pvp.  I like pvp, somepeople are asses with it and will camp lowbies or will go in groups and gank people who are minding their business, this is a risk.  REally when I've seent his happen in MMos that i am playing it makes me mad and I like to avenge the person who is griefed
