Main quests are not coming for a while, gameplay is definitely a huge focus of World of Magic. I’m sure there’ll be a story for people who are interested to explore! That being said, what are you looking forward to seeing?
Are you more excited to see new characters established? Or having returning legends from Arcane Adventures show up for us to explore what has happened to them in the huge time gap?
Do you want a simpler, linear story that clearly establishes your character’s motives? Or a very open ended one that lets your character be whoever they want to be by your design? Share your thoughts!
Obviously, there are story parameters set already, this is a world filled with wizards and bandits and warriors and such, but I feel like the player should be able to write about their own character essentially, with different key events that would have a unique effect on the player as a whole, maybe after an attack on a city witnessed by three people, one will go in and help, one will loot the remains, and one will run away. These types of moments will allow people to spin their own stories.
On the other hand, curse users, I want to see them, and I want to fight them because their abilities are cool and I love a good challenge as long as it’s not completely one-sided. Plus they can swim now because no more pollution apparently. So what do they do with their one real weakness being removed? Is there a vendetta against them with people trying to recreate their one weakness, which was water with magic pollution?
And one final thing: The technology of the world. How have people reacted to myths and legends about guns? Have people attempted to recreate them? Does the magic council forbid the recreation of technology believing magic will sustain the world forever, with the leaders knowing about the weapons in AA and the chaos they caused? Is there still a hidden person who remembers the technology and is still alive? There are so many questions that are related to this, and I can’t wait for them to be answered.
