Quote from: Snafu
Being a text game, Nanny has lost a lot of people due to graphical games and the MMORPGs that now exist. I, for one, stay on Nanny because of all of the interesting people I have met through Nanny (on Nanny and in RL). I will continue to come to Nanny out of loyalty to the game and to my friends.

Sorry Maggs, I'm off topic as always, just wanted to comment this...

Strange thing is that I _still_ love playing a mortal in Nanny, I still want to reach higher in the guilds, still strive after achieving certain things in the game. And I have never been especially social in Nanny, I am way too social in RL, can't stand too much chatting in a game, even though I find talking with some players very refreshing and a good spammage is also fun... I love playing 3D FPS like Unreal Tournament (check my avatar), but atm I prefer Nanny over UT!!! And I have not really had any blank intervals in my 12+ years of Nanny! I can't really understand it! Ffs, the people that lured me into this quit playing some 7-8 years ago! Damn strange! (Eh, perhaps this should be moved to Rant? 'twas Snafu's post that set it off though.)

Yes, I played Nanny for an hour or so last night and didn't want to stop. The only graphical game I play is NWN, and I find I get bored of that pretty quickly. I agree with Carrion, there is always something to strive for and enjoy.

Snafu's note really rocked, don't you agree?

I understand it must be difficult if not impossible to keep the quest part of the game interesting for both new and old players...for old players it may look as too easy, for new players just totally overwhelming.

I dont know what the solution may be, but I know the game from the point of view of a new player compared to many of you talking here. I am not a quest solver anyhow, because I cant be searching in the same area once and again, but I can understand for a new player full of stamina quests are anything but easy. That's my opinion Rolling Eyes


And when I say old players, I mean old players who have kept active in the game through questing and all...I have read Carrion, and I would like to see him solving all the quests he hasnt if it's true he stopped questing in 1998 Cool

I actually solved a quest or two (or three) just the other day. With a mortal, of course.

In a day several? You may be more intelligent...or you may have acquired some abilities from your previous playing...for some like me, quests are not like your are painting them Shocked

It would actually be interesting to 'snoop' (spy on) you when you try on a quest, just to see what you're doing different from me. Normally I just read the quest help, possible information in the tourist info, go to the area and try to investigate just about everything, of course holding on to interesting objects. Doing 'search' everywhere... Definitely no rocket science! Some quests involves killing hard monsters, that will obviously make it hard for someone not strong. But perhaps I have created this plan from past experience, and that a newbie will not do it this way at all, no idea...

Lately I am just lazy, but if one day I try a quest again I will tell you so that you can "spy" Very Happy  

I never tried any quest in your area, though the newbie part I have visited very often.
