How many evil monsters just stand in one spot in a room waiting to be attacked? This is silly and unbelievable. When I go into a boss room (like Drinal) I think the mob should be: 1.) Writing a manifesto. 2.) Building a shark tank. 3.) Assembling a bomb. 4.) Whipping something. 5.) Counting its gold bullion. 6.) ANYTHING BUT STANDING THERE LOOKING AT A WALL. Discuss!
It's because of posts like this that SoE spends their time working on stuff that has little to no impact on gameplay and leaves out important things that need to be fixed.
Actually, the boss is standing there for perfectly logical reasons.... He's thinking about what a crappy job the maid did on the baseboards. She's probably getting sacked next week. "What if I knock down this wall and build a spa? A hot tub would really help me unwind after all these interruptions...." He's hiding his eyes to count for Hide-n-Seek. Where do you think all those adds come from? He's just stopped beating his head against the wall in frustration, because... you know... it feels so good when you stop. He's actually peeking through a small hole into the girls' locker room. He's trying to figure out what happened to the portal to his Prestige house. That Felwithe mansion really takes a long time to decorate....
No toilets in Norrath... anywhere... discuss ^_^ In 8+ years, someone should have been caught in the can!
He is probably just thinking to himself, "Y'know, if I switched to pastels, I could probably liven this place up, then maybe more of my friends would come visit - instead of these people that just break in, rough me up, and take my stuff."
My ratonga uses the fountain in the guild hall. He was forced to go somewhere after the guildies complained about the little black pellets all over the floor next to the broker.
Art and Animation have nothing to do with mechanics. I happen to think the looks, environment, and animations have a HUGE impact on game play. ...that and I am not sure I want Tom's team designing raid content.
There must be an enterprising lawyer amongst the player base that can represent him in a "Drinal v. Norrath" class action lawsuit.
