Title: Would you play?
Post by: zondra on September 05, 2013, 05:01:29 am
 If solace reopened would you play? I know nat and maybe the big C think if game was reopened player base would be low, yes no or maybe to try and get a head count maybe would help and get the excitement up,

Title: Re: Would you play?
Post by: omledufromage on October 13, 2013, 11:30:15 am
I suppose I would, and I'm pretty sure my brother would be interested too.


Title: Re: Would you play?
Post by: zondra on October 13, 2013, 03:26:07 pm
I Think that makes it around 20. Not a bad number.


Title: Re: Would you play?
Post by: omledufromage on October 13, 2013, 11:39:09 pm
If that were everyone, it would be a pretty bad number, yeah... especially if they were to consider opening clans.
But that's not even the point. Confirmation came from people who check the forum from time to time, and
there are certainly lots of people who would come play and that simply don't check the forum to answer.

Aside from that, it would be great if players and all made an effort to make the environment more
newbie friendly, so that new people would like to try and play Solace, and become addicted, and etc...
There's no bright future for Solace  if the idea is to just reopen the exclusive sandbox.


Title: Re: Would you play?
Post by: zondra on October 13, 2013, 11:44:27 pm
I think 20 people that play a lot is a nice start. We have to open
Before we can work on getting new players.20 is enough to open clans
And get rp going.


Title: Re: Would you play?
Post by: khiren on October 14, 2013, 01:13:23 pm
Number_of_potential_players is not an issue.
As I understand, problem is who would have time to monitor and admin Solace?

What's Sirrion's position on this?

He's not the sole owner of the codebase and the copyright to it (and neither is anyone of imms in particular...)


Title: Re: Would you play?
Post by: Sirri on September 28, 2020, 03:15:03 pm
As I said before there's no technical or financial problem in resurrecting it; in fact it's a matter of turning the switch back on (it's still there hibernated on the same server as before).

There is a problem of absolutely no RP imms to actually run the game. That's the reason it died; if you were around during its last days you probably remember I was actively trying different people at that position; results were terrible.
Solace is not meant to be played without immteraction, believe me you'll get bored in a week, it happened many times before.

I'm always around for reasonable suggestions (no we're not selling the codebase, it's absolutely out of question); we're always in touch with Habba who summoned me today and Nui, and we would be happy to see good old Solace prosper again - we simply seriously don't see how exactly would that happen.


Title: Re: Would you play?
Post by: zondra on September 29, 2020, 01:54:53 am
Well I would play and never stopped. I miss is alot. I would do whatever it takes.  I know playing an immortal is tough but it is so much joy to play.

Are there more or less formalized requirements to a RP imm? How many are needed to run the game?

- Greater or equal than one. However if there's only one, it imposes too much time responsibility on them, and too much of a risk on other imms.
- No formalized requirements, but there's three main points: (1) time commitment (e.g. not disappearing for a month without warning; they don't have to be online every day but they have be online regularly enough), (2) no cheating (ideally, an imm would not have any high profile chars or clan chars at all; 'cheating' includes things like logging in as an imm just to scan for availability or location of some items, or logging as an imm to explore certain areas for the sole purpose of traveling there at a later time with a mortal char, etc), (3) good knowledge of the realms / clans / backstory / good English.
