Accessibility & More

From A to B
Travel time has always been a hot topic in MMO design. Can players teleport anywhere in the game instantly, or does walking from one end of the world to the other take hours? There are supporters on both sides of this debate, and both approaches have their own benefits and drawbacks. A large world makes the game feel more massive and makes the highs and lows of the game experience more exciting; for instance, fighting a Nazgûl or dragon should be a very, very rare occurrence or it loses something of its mystique. Sprawling landscapes feel vast and filled with adventure because they ARE. On the other hand, fast-travel allows players to immediately do what they want to. It makes a wide open landscape feel less daunting and allows players to jump into the action whenever they want.

Skirmish: Rewards PDF Print E-mail
Written by Dev Diary: Brian ZC

Let’s be honest with ourselves. People play new content for the rewards. Sure, if the content is fun it is more likely to get replayed, but even if we made the hardest, most boring boss fight in the game drop the best loot, a lot of people would still play it. With that in mind, we've tried to design the Skirmish rewards system in as free-form a way as possible, allowing players to play the content they want and receive mostly equivalent rewards. This has its own pitfalls; players can find the Skirmish they believe is the easiest and replay it constantly, which can lead to different kinds of frustration. The system might not force a particular bit of content on the player, but the player’s attempts to maximize their reward gains could lead them to choose to play in an un-fun manner. With all that in mind, let’s get to it.
