I know classic is basically dead and this won't make much difference but I'd like to say it anyway: Janeway is a joke and needs to be fixed. The core concept is fine -- allow players to level up more quickly by hunting particular enemies. The issue is that you always hunt the same monsters.

 

Therefore, most of the low level maps in the game are completely useless. Nobody is going to visit places like ant hell, savages, etc., because you can just get to 50/50 by killing a few janeway enemies, then immediately go to harder places. This means that stuff like pupa cards and various other useful low-level items are almost completely absent in the economy.

 

Why not just have janeway give players a random hunting ground each time? For example, maybe one player has to kill 20 thief bugs, but another player has to kill 20 willows. It would take barely any extra effort to do this, but instead you are forced to do the same poring-thiefbug-boa-roda quest on EVERY character, and nobody ever visits 50% of the maps in the game.

That should be better for Janeway.

 

The term "classic" has become complicated in my opinion. When talking about classic, people think of old days they grinded with friends and get a level up step by step. Since Janeway exists, that kind of atmosphere cannot be found. Everyone just rushes to the end game content (of classic). Most people choose renewal because it wasn't really classic... in their own reasons. Not just mine.

 

And I believe a "true" classic (which me too hoped for it) will not survive long. People get back to it, play it and done with it. Move on to another. It's basically not-working business model.

ive always believed classic thrived because of the actual nostalgia. when i went back to it though, it wasn't the case because i never would have relived my past with RO without the people ive met, when things were waaaaaay simpler for me and them

 

i guess what i'm trying to say is, classic server became a bit quiet due to this and the only thing that made it stay this long are the people eager enough to continue on what they've started. and yes you can thank the classic guilds for that

 

anyway about your janeway person, i like how you want it modified rather than deleted because the npc does have its perks. so +1. insight and free bump here  :heh:
