Will UO be too scared to introduce evil?

source taken from UO U.Hall

For those who didn't know... April 4th was the 1 year aniversary of Inu's Puzzle.

Through out this entire story arc with Inu, and blackrock - Ophidians, and Ricardo, we have seen many bad things happen. Well, the small portion of us who followed Inu's plot closely... Many horrid omens and harbingers of evil, but the evil in and of its self is WAY watered down... There has yet to be a consequence for anything we do. Only reward. And if creating monsters for us to fight is the only "evil", then I've lost interest in UO.

So, if turning in your blackrock is truly evil, what is the consequence?
What good will come of holding on to it?

For those who never bothered to mine blackrock, we will see cries for one last chance to join in the rewards.

For those who wasted their horde, we will hear cries of how its not fair, they didn't know it was actuly worth somthing...

and for those of us who hold on to it still, may end up missing the train.

The only logical thing would be to later allow a new turn in with better rewards.
But I fear that UO will not want to deal with the reprocussions of deceiving it's patrons. I think this is truly the last chance to unload your stash.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

I assume its going to be one of those numbers where if a shard gives so much black rock something explodes, and perhaps whoever gave large amounts will be publicly exposed for general scorn.

Personally I think a better turn in scenario would be dumb (but totally possible), and not just cause I turned mine in already (because honestly I think everything I got should disintegrate or harm me somehow, because.. come on.. EVIL! And I even got an arti I would never have gotten otherwise and have been lusting after for years.) , but rather because it would be a boring turn of events. Exactly why I wanted to turn mine in... well partly anyway heh.

I want to see something crazy happen. I want to see the world get shaken up, I don't want it to keep on its petty pace, I've see it for 8 years now.

I want tumultuous change! Real danger! Real excitement!

CALAMITY!

Who's with me?! TURN IN THE ROCK! GIVE THEM WHAT THEY NEED TO RIP THE WORLD TO SHREDS!

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Sort of negative for a reporter eh?

Have some faith in the Devs before you give up on a future that you know nothing about.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

well said

This is really the ONLY thing that can save this scenario and UO as a whole.

However, I honestly do think the Devs are too scared to really bite the bullet and tear this world apart. I am hoping that I am wrong.

The rumor is that those shards meeting the blackrock minimum turnin will be spared. Those that do not will be dissasembled. This is all a premise to start the end of UO.

Why else would they give us all these artifacts for blackrock? Balance no longer matters.

Those players that actually play on a dissassembled shard will be transported to a holding area, where they will have a choice of still existing shards.

(It IS still april after all)

As a reminder, the world was changed in the past. And all anyone could do was complain.

Lasting invasions have been staged, and they complained.

On the other hand, this explains the screenshots we have seen of the cities in UO:KR. I have been wondering why all the cities look abandoned, the grounds choked with weeds. Looks like all the mayors and the infrastructure fled.

What is Inu?

I still don't know how anyone can ask if they will introduce evil. I mean, they let Maddux in game, that's evil enough.

When the boogeyman goes to bed at night, he checks his closet for Maddux.

What shards do you think would be disassembled, if this rumor were to prove true?

I don't think speculating on rumors will get anyone anywhere
