Myrland is stagnant.
Why?
Because you can become too big to fail. Specifically, big guilds.
The world just DOESN'T move anymore. Odinseed, Bad Company, Koto... We watch them fight, and nothing changes; they're still here, despite being pushed to the edge, they're still here. WHY? Because you've made it too easy to avoid an absolute wipeout. You've made failure TOO safe for big guilds; which is ironic, because solos lose near everything when they get ganked.
HOW can we get excited for a war between guilds, when we know they can't REALLY lose anything. They can't be wiped out.
You have a town where you can bank everything, a perma-safespot; WHY are strongholds and houses not more destructible?
THIS is why people are enjoying Sarducca, and are asking for a Myrland wipe. It is fresh.
But this freshness is temporary; and it won't be long before it turns into Myrland.
You need to make it so big guilds can fail; no more appointments for wars. No more being unable to steal their loot from their base. It's time to up the stakes, as it has become stale, safe, and as a result, boring..
