Red Dead Online RAW ( my way of MMO )

[IanLaudan]

Bored at work : 

 

 

Call it RAW not only cause its a rough draft of what Game should be and would need a lot of Tuning and Tweaking , but cause it would really be RAW….so punitive and restrictive, big decisions, high risk, high rewards etcetc                     Main Premise = World is 350 Players deep, 50 x 7 Posse, i played games running by Indie Companies and we were 100+ Players on Server, I bet R* with their Billions could land and make this happen   Counted 100 Houses, Shacks and Shanties ( entered or tried to ), without those around Towns and inside them which can be used by players and fittingly remastered by R* plus Hotel Rooms in each Town.   EndGame is gaining Prestige which is measured in bought things Endgame : Invite to high-stake Poker at Grand Korrigan, for which you need to buy house in St.Denis, 7 residences available

NOW                                                                                     2 Min = 1 Hour 48 Min = 1 Day 1 Day = 1 Month 12 Days = 1 Year   10 Years Period is Played, 1890-1900, 4 Months Real Time, Residences in St.Denis hit Market on 108 Day ( out of 120 )

lol, imagine if RDO was actually like this instead of a reskinned GTAO? Imagine if R* actually told the truth all that time ago.

A lot of very interesting ideas.

 

A little helpful criticism: the red text is hard to read.
