In my ancient zMud client, I can make an alias (ie csua = cast suacovisp), and when I type the alias followed by something (ie csua <name>) it will execute the alias with the following statements. So if I use the above example I can type 'csua <name> <message>' and it'll work just fine. But when I t...

I occasionally follow the conversations of Margaret Weis and Tracey Hickman - the authors of the Dragonlance Chronicles where the world of Krynn is based from - on Goodreads where they engage with their fan base, and I sometimes wonder what it would be like taking them a tour of Krynn in Genesis.

The game has no need to be balanced in PVE. Who cares what another player can do that way? I certainly don't care what a player can do against another NPC. Why should you? Should that not be obvious? PvE -> leads to stats, gear, trinkets, imbuements, money -> leads to advantages in PvP -> leads to ...

The Achievers thoroughly won Genesis , with the Killers, Socializers and Explorers being left far behind. Look at what the game rewards for PvP, Roleplay and Exploring: PvP Reward: The game does not reward you for PvP'ing, except perhaps the "joy" of knowing the opponent lost gear, compon...
