Elsweyr MQ

Yeah, if you go with this three-side quest way, ALL your quests will be too complex. Maybe even unnecessarily complicating those simple.

not me who go with tree quest lines.. DA whoes in charge.. and most easy quest wouldnt have a counter.. just another easy simular quest for the other faction..

First we need to decide the following.

1. How much impact should the quest-lines have on Elsweyr

Very Large

2. How long should they be?

20+ Required quests each, 50+ total fo replayability and content

3. How should they be structured?

A certain number of quests done leads to a plot quest, then more quests done followed by a plot quest, with what quests you did having some effect

4. How often should they intersect

Often enough so that you can tell each questline happens in the same political climate, but not so much that the player feels like he's rehashing the same quest line

5. Should individual quests have effects on the others

Yes

6. Should the game world be noticably different at the end of whatever quest line the player chooses

Yes, somewhat, more than the MQ had in vanilla

I included my answers

2. How long should they be?

So how do you intend to keep those 50 repetable quests? fetch and deliver, assassinations, kill # enemies? Perhaps make it depend on global values?

more giving some background one some quest who leads to something who seams/or is the truth.. more like if the quest you are doing are based one lie or have the purpose you where told.. and background on most quest to make them seam alive.. real.. making those with simular quest having different background.. reasons.. lies.. and making the player think.. different for the quest of different nature.. hiding things in plain sight to make the player have to think.. role play in the character..

They are not repeatable, they are quests that are not all doable one time through the game.

My mistake then. Too many MMORPG reviews lately.

That's pretty good number there. Just no Bethesda hand-holding style quests.

some few.. perhaps... just doing something making the NPC's flee instead of fighting.. just rescue NPC X who is a non fighter spy.. if discoverd flee(or defend him, without him fighting.. he just fleeing... kinda if discoverd he'll met you at location X ,if he and you gets away alive..)

[DarkAsmodeous]

Could you each provide your own answers to the questions?

[Krisi-_]

1. How much impact should the quest-lines have on Elsweyr

who controls the region.. very large..

2. How long should they be?

20+ Required quests each, 50+ total fo replayability and content with unique
backgounds when they seams to like each other..

3. How should they be structured?

A certain number of quests done leads to a plot quest, then more quests done followed by a plot quest, with what quests you did having some effect

no comment.. dont get the Q..

4. How often should they intersect

Often enough so that you can tell each questline happens in the same political climate, but not so much that the player feels like he's rehashing the same quest line.. ofc they chould not have the samme talk to NPC X and give him.. if not he is the only person who can what the quest is about.. background on most possible quest..

5. Should individual quests have effects on the others

Yes

6. Should the game world be noticably different at the end of whatever quest line the player chooses

Yes, somewhat, more than the MQ had in vanilla.. again who controls Elsweyr.. atleast mostly..


and it's a quick answer..
