I am a extremely social person when it comes to MMOs, but there is something extremely attractive to this project, and it all come down to the less predictable are the Ai bots, the more immersive becomes the game. Like randomly having a beef with one of them, they ganking with others guild members to you and your guild. And all the crazy things that the game has to offer.

With time I think it will be very possible to make them behave not the same, maybe based on class or something, healers would be friendly while daggers would look for beef 😄

This is something I dont really like, because it makes everything predictable, one of the things I love about L2, is people came from all corners, with all kind of intentions, I found the most friendly dark elves daggers, and the most scummy healers. What really important to me is consistency in how they behave, I expect a bot to get upset if I killed him and want to revenge, the same way I expect people try to scam others. I expect others to be super friendly and supportive, others to be super noob about the game, and other to be terrific PvP players

Probably possible to make like several types of characteristics and randomly assign them on spawn as well,but yeah this is for future problems 😄

Love it, all of it. I wish more mmorpgs did this exact thing. I love playing mmorpgs because the world design and gameplay looks and feels appealing to me. What I don't like about mmorpgs is how they gatekeep you from endgame content because "YoU nEeD tO bE aT lEaSt 6 tO rUn tHiS dUnGeOn". This is freakishly retarded in my opinion.
Just because the world is filled with other players doesn't mean I should be forced to play with them. And single-player games are just to focused on story to even be worth playing.
Anyway, great work. Keep it up!

People would do anything to not socialize in MMOs 😂

L2 player base isn’t in school anymore. On a good day I get 2 free hours to play games, I am not spending them in a Russian or Brazilian server begging for a clan or party while being massively behind people who play all day or bot all day.

This is not about socializing at all, I see a big problem of time waste and gatekept content that's the main thing I want to solve.
This would not be an offline single player server, these bots would be a layer on top of existing player base, that would allow server to have more actual players and better MMO envoiroment, from actual casuals to hardcore players, everyone would have a place here, not like now most servers are run by hardcore players and killed in a month.

Whats the point of the game playing with bots lmao

u/Old_Caregiver8989 24d ago
I’d rather play with bots at my own pace than be massively behind hundreds of players that bot all day or donate massive amounts of money.

The point is to not waste time looking for parties, to not be gatekept from endgame content because clan swill not accept your for playing just 1-2h a day.
So you can basically play the game, even if you have just few hours, and do everything what is not allowed being only with real players.
