What is HC-RPG?

[TheGreasyChopper]

We cannot make the current server hardcore RP. Foundational it's wrong.

And noone wants that. Yeah, some people wish to be more serious about their roleplay, but that's not -hardcore RP- as you call it, Argonath's level of Roleplay has increased to a great standard the past few months, why ruin the progress?

[Axison]

The choice ultimately comes down to me, the lead scripter. I try to make the best choice but honestly.. I'm only human and I don't always know what the best choice is.... and that's something I feel most people don't understand.

Even if it does, you'll have people to discuss ideas with then, you also got the community

because people suggest ideas that are elements of hardcore servers.

[Manoni]

We don't lose nothing in trying it. People shouldn't go negative against an idea without knowing first.

Yeah, I listen to the community and look where it's getting me... even more stressed, yet I keep it up because it's a change I promised and intend to keep.

I have a queston, will we have to restart things there?

Elements of serious roleplay, that's one thing. While they might be added it will still keep the freedom of Roleplay in Argonath. So far noone has forced any level of Roleplay trough the years, but adding a hardcore RP server will enforce people to strictly RP, and there are far too many servers in which you can do that. Why lose the Argonath spirit?

It would be possible to migrate accounts on request.

[Satoshi]

Having a second server won't be good. We will be 10-15 players on the hardcore roleplay and 10-15 on RPG. Let's not turn Argonath in hardcore roleplay but make the current scripts better? Add new ones.

[Cofiliano]

It would be roughly the same wouldn't it?

No its a big difference. I would have to start Gvardia all over again on that new server, and it took us 2 times x2-3 years to do so. I personally and my group couldnt give another 2-3 years of development, and specially if no one knows will this work out or not. We're mostly older players, approximately average 22-23 years old. I wouldnt have a way to motivate my people to do it all over again, for the 3rd time. And we're mostly into more decent roleplay then freeroam.

Its like completely moving to a new server(Which we could have done dozen of times till now, and are constantly annoyed by many people/servers to do so, yet we stayed here.)


I took Gvardia just as an example, why's this such a big difference.

The light RP server will still be the main server and focus of Argonath. It won't close down. I don't think you understand how many people from the main server will join this one and get banned quickly or simply leave because they don't like it and head back to light rp.

It will still be using RS5.1, we can migrate data easily between the two.

[Manoni]

Are you planning to migrate the properties ownership too or people will have the chance to chose them again?

[Axison]

There is clearly a difference between Hardcore RP and Decent RP. We have decent roleplay in Argonath. We're just lacking some scripts.

Then why waste your time with it when RS5 needs improvements and there scripts we've been waiting for, for long enough? Just improve the main server to be able to sustain both light and heavy RP. We are on the right track so far...
