User blog:Tibby/A break from Guild Wars


 * Turns translator on*

Hello, 42. Some of you might have known that I've been missing from Runescape due to Guild Wars 2, after getting the nice-looking gear and some roleplaying there, I've decided to take a break. Really awesome game, I would say. The roleplay is awesome, and has most of the "Consent before Act" rule implemented in it, which means that you have to ask for permission before attacking or performing whatever act that may harm others. This rule is server-wide and there really aren't any land claims, however, the closest thing to land claiming would be a roleplay guild in the form of an already existing in-game faction using certain areas. Think of it as the white knights occupying the castle, yet not owning falador.

This is partially a problem, for me, as it makes my roleplay experience too "assured". I'm not sure if I'm making sense here, but the elimination of the risk of character deaths at any random moment has removed the spice of roleplay that I love A LOT: The Tibby, CRAVES danger and actually wishes for a bit more to happen. Tibby doesn't mind getting hurt or abused, as long as it was impacting or purposeful, something that would influence another's lifestyle (let's take traumatising as an example). Runescape's roleplay, although with the "problems" people have been bringing up, doesn't seem as bad as people say it is, at least from my view. Heh, I don't know what you guys think it's like. Maybe it's because I rarely get into rp fights and am itching for some violence.

Maybe I'm crazy, heheh..Y-yes..crazy..



What I'm trying to say is that, nothing can replace the awesome experience I get from you guys. No matter how good the customization feature of another game is, it can't beat the experience.
