EVE Should ALWAYS Be an OPTION (Poll Response)

I was just considering the in game poll (solo play, private servers, both neither) for which I chose neither.

Simply:

1. Much of the OHOL emergent gameplay REQUIRES other human players
2. If you start splitting up the player base, this game will die

That said, I think there is a need for people to have more control on where and with whom they play.

Infinite map so there is a simple solution: Spawning as Eve should always be an option.

Eve option combined with /die and the curse system should be a simple but effective fix to a lot of problems.

Re: EVE Should ALWAYS Be an OPTION (Poll Response)

Some Advantages of this change:

1. Every player can always choose to play by themselves

2. Always an option to start something new

3. Eve doesn't have to feed kids they don't want to play with
--> When you consider this in the context of trust/curse, players could create white-listed families

4. Eve is leader and can exile players if they start acting badly

5. Less likely that Eves will be inexperienced players and

6. More Eves in the world means more options for players spawning normally
--> This effectively allows players to VOTE with their birth with respect to where/how they want to play

7. Players are no longer trapped in limited locations/families they may not want to play in

8. Player base will likely be more distributed throughout more families
--> This is good because right now there are often too many players in one family
--> This causes the family to burn through gameplay too quickly and creates conflicting goals

Yeah but would you pay an extra $5 for this option?

I think that is what Jason is asking.

For an eve button? Yes.

Not monthly though.
