Player vs Player – involving conflict between two or more said players.
Role Play – act out or perform the part of a person or character.
Based upon these definitions and how I have seen Atys been played through-out the years, PvP is not RP but I am going to go off the trail a bit here and make a suggestion that will most likely not be warmly received. Over the years, this game has evolved and grown, contrary to what a number of newbies who have joined and complained about one thing or another but I believe that if we want to truly have a “PvP” realm, we need to eliminate the “tagged” action and have all toons be attackable anywhere at anytime to emulate reality, that would be the true meaning of PvP and survival. Once the conflict is over and (if or when a toon dies) that said toon has a cool-down period where they cannot play (either game-time or real-time – does not matter) but that would also make it more interesting and I believe more challenging.
Regarding Role Play – after all, this is a game and are we not all “role playing” in some way, shape, form or fashion?
Anyways, have fun and happy training.
Godspeed, Zatarga
P.S., I know that some toons already take things way too serious and this suggestion will never happen because of those crazed, insane toons but just a thought.
