Top 5 things you love about Cantr II

Postby Doug R. » Tue Sep 09, 2008 5:05 pm

Top 5 things you love about Cantr, in order (if you can) from most loved (1) to least loved (5). If you can't think of 5 things, that's fine too. I'll be compiling the results for a future issue of the webzine. Feel free to edit and change your answers as you read others replies!

1. Freedom of play - I can do anything I want socially, be anyone I want to be, go anywhere I want to go.

2. Multiple characters.

3. Slow-paced.

4. Text based.

5. Death system No old age/permanent death.

1. Roleplaying
2. Ability to make and own stuff
3. Anyone can become rich and/or powerful with some effort, (the old characters don't have an impossible head start)
But...
4. It's not too easy for new characters to beat established ones
5. Permanent death

In order from coolest to cool:

1. The challenge of playing a character realistically and consistently.

2. Multiple language support. I love playing Cantr in Spanish, and I'd recommend it to anyone who's learning or re-learning a language because you can take the time to review the grammar and you're using the language in a context similar to real life.

3. Massive world depth. My brother and I can talk about Cantr for an hour and nobody knows what we're talking about.

4. My characters can make history and leave a lasting impression on the world.

5. The freedom to be good/evil, lawful/lawless.

Also, as a side note, green background. No other website I go on has that. If there was a Cantr III, I don't know if I could handle it if it wasn't green.

I LOVE THIS GAME!! :lol: :lol:

Complaining has always been easier than praising for human beings. Besides, those numbers are just the choice of the topic starter, they do not reflect the ability of the players to come up with positive or negative aspects of the game.

I found it more difficult to get 10 negatives than I thought it would be, and now that I've seen other's responses, I have more than 5 things I love about the game. I just wanted people to think harder about the good things.

1. Knowing that what you do can potentially influence a lot of people.

2. Player-created history.

3. Free-form styled roleplay.

4. Vast places to discover.

5. Knowing that there's no other game like this.

Freedom to do anything, no NPC's with quests or shops.

Oddities, bows without arrows, carrying gas without container etc...

Simultaneus "grinding" for many characters without me having to do anything.

Pioneering. You can find places no other player has ever visited.

History. You can find ruins of forgotten places and notes of epic journeys.
