Hello,
I've been debating if doing an RPG mud is really what I have passion about. What I have real passion for is Green Lantern Universe. Lets face it there are hundreds of medieval fantasy muds out there. There aren't any Green Lantern muds. There are pros and cons to trying to do a GL mud. I wish to get advice before I take on this dream and goal of mine.
Pros
1. Widen variety of heroes and villains.
(Look at all the potential I could have here. This is just with the lanterns themselves. Not including non-lantern villains/heroes.)
2. Could be a one of a kind Green Lantern Mud.
3. Tons of character creation choices and other options.
4. Plenty of areas to explore.
5. An already establish universe to expand upon.
Cons
1. The expansion universe it self. In the GL universe they travel planet to planet. As you can see this would be the first problem. I would want people to experience what they read. The reason I think I'd run into is the lack of vnums.
2. The ring abilities themselves. They use constructs. The ring's ability are only limited by the user themselves. I think people would want to be able to have plenty of customizable constructs. Main problem here is how would I be able to obtain that.
3. Ring and Lantern. The ring lanterns uses a charge. It depletes after each use. The Lantern charges the ring. I would have to come up with a ring and lantern charging system.
4. Central Batteries. Central Batteries affect all rings. I would have to come up with a system that if something happens to the battery it would affect the rings. Any ideas.
As you can see this would be a big task. I would love all the input on this.
