Hey guys,
Although this user was created recently I am a very old member of the OT community, dating back to when the original OTServer project started.
I don't know if someone from here remembers but back in the days creating custom OTs was all about the fun and creativity we had within us and I remember that this community was full of completely out of the box and creative ideas, there would always be an OT with concepts we never even seen before and really new.
A very simple example but I remember an OT back in the days that had the flying carpet be an actual flying carpet that took you to the places rather than just a teleport. Not only that but there was so much more wild concepts and ideas to make the game fun, not focusing on the same meta we have today of hunting like a crackhead.
Nowadays when I take a look at the projects I see, even the most "custom" ots are actually just more of the same, its always about the same systems, upgrading equips, rarity, mining, whatever it is, it feels like they are all trying to do the same thing but slightly different, its been a long time that I saw a really out of the box OT that completely surprised me, not the same concepts and systems just being done differently.
Anyone feels the same? Has our true creative mind died now that we are all old fucks? Maybe because we were all teenagers/young back then we flourished so much more with those wild concepts.
