Even more story ideas

[Vesuveus]

I have to be a pessimist here. I feel that my posts are pessimistic, but realistic.

We may have to accept a lower standard of story participation for an amount of time. Monolith had the desire and the means to do it. There were people who's full time job was to play as LET characters and bring the community into the storyline. Updates, meetings, invitations to live events, etc. were done by main characters. I would love for a volunteer to take this approach, but no one can be expected to keep this level of immersion as a volunteer.

For the single writer approach with 2 advisors, only the outline would have to be approved, not a detailed story arc. That way changes are easier to make.

Another thing is that wherever the story goes, some of us may not like it and that's okay. It is just unfortunate that the official MxO storyline sucked in some spots and particularly toward the end because it was supposed to be canon and we paid for it. But some people did like the Oligarch storyline. I went along with it, but was not too interested.
