World Ongoing Storyline

So, as we know, Wynncraft doesn't really have much going on in the world.
Cities always stay the same, and Wynn as a whole is pretty dead.
______________________________________________________________________________
The idea

What if we had a main storyline, created by the content team, with input from the players.

For example, one day, Ragni may be taken over by another city, such as Troms.
We will see this by seeing changes done in the city, like some broken houses, new NPC's, more guards around the city. You can also add camps with NPC's and guards from Ragni living there outside the city.

There may also be new quests, where you can choose which side you want to support.
Here's a very brief example.

Spoiler: Example

If you support the people taking over the city, you get a quest from the commander, where you have to bring back X amount of items from the fleeing people.

If you support the people who have been conquered, you get a quest from the ''bandit'' commander to go kill some guards and bring back items from them.

The story line will be determined by random events created by the content team, and threads on the forums asking them which city they want to prosper, or which one they support.
This'll be done subtly, as to not be too obvious to where the story is going.

______________________________________________________________________________
Why?

This just makes Wynn look more alive by showing that big changes and events are going on.
This also creates something the players can look forward to and discuss between eachother.

This also shows that this server, Wynncraft, isn't a dead server, but a server that is constantly getting updated.

WynnExcavation already counts and apparently there is going to be a new storyline in Gavel (I think it is likely that this is the quest we saw in the latest Gavel video).

 

yup in-game content

 

That sounds like it would take the content team a long time to make. Besides, they said at Cubedcon that there is a main storyline that goes into all three provinces: Wynn, Gavel, and Dern. The storyline in each province makes up the entire Wynncraft story.

 

During CubedCon I'm pretty sure Salted confirmed a proper storyline for Gavel.

 

I think it's a good idea, or what if we "reset"ed the whole Wynncraft server and make that idea?
Make a "new world", and make this suggestion along with almost other good ones.

 

Okay, very interesting, and I'll support! In fact, I would like to add a part. Think that as certain cities get taken over, merchants, along with quest NPC's, arrive as well! These merchant NPC's hold items tagged "special" and can be found at certain places and times at a daily, weekly, or monthly basis. This would be just an extra way of bringing life to Wynn, along with adding some interesting new items to the market. [just my idea. If you don't like, just get yo free cookie samples] DISCLAIMER: It will take a long time, however, and might result in constant server restarts, if added at all.

 

I love team events which are takeovers of a city (for anyone that was in the DR open beta, think Ember's Eve, which is the highlight of everything I did in RPGs). These are fun, team oriented, and it works for plot points (again, Ember's Eve, and the death or dissaperance of the king). However, as everyone said, there WILL be a central storyline in Wynn with the coming of Gavel. This is something to look at to see its actually good, but the Iron Heart thing makes it look preeeeety good.
