Oh boy-
I guess I'd like for....a little more extreme sense of lore. Trust me, I don't know what I mean by this.
Something.....
...exciting. Something people can grip onto and say "Oh s-" or "Wow! I'm inspired by this!"
I'm not saying the current lore is bad.
It's rather amazing.
But there are things that just...seem....BORING.
I mean, people add things all the time, but do these things have....secrets? Do trees have secrets? Are monsters real and contained somewhere? What REALLY is used in Mushroom brew tea? Do Engems have green blood? Is Naelwyn ever going to wear a dress again?
It all comes down to question, really.
Cliffhangers.
Leaving...purposely unfilled lore, and letting people expand on it later.
Or leave it, and when someone notices something wrong, they can spot it and tell rumours....
....it's not that I want to say "Do Engems have green blood?"
I could post that on the Rumours thread.
What I wish to see are REAL things. REAL myths come alive and give events that are EXCITING!
The gaps in lore-
Think about 'em!
So many rumours we could just fill in! But fill them in style, so we can add and add and add again-
Give events, give rumours, make people different, have things in Altera that people would never DREAM of!
An example:
Nael mentions here and there that there is 10 stacks of TNT under Port Silver.
Rumour or truth?
Does anyone care? Of course we do, but we go speechless. Why?
Well, how can we check? It's not like anyone could be bothered to go in the sewers and see. Somewhat, it might not be in the sewers...maybe a secret tunnel from one of the houses?
The fact Nael gave us a cliffhanger..."There is 10 stacks of TNT under Port Silver"...that's fun!
I gripped the sides of our chairs and thought: "what the nether is he going to do with that?"
We will never know~
~And that's the thing I wished we had.
Things in lore that scare us, make us hyper, make us wish see things that we may never see--
--until that frightful day when someone is allowed to make an event out of it. Edit: I want a Laser Giraffe
