more interesting stuff for the higher levels

Game! is quite witty and challenging in the lower levels but once a character becomes strong the challenge dwindles away. It would be great to have more variety in the higher levels. The campground is a nice addition. Maybe something else along that line to make the higher levels more varied in experience. Something that would encourage player interaction.

I agree, though what level would you say that the challenge starts dwindling at?

Definitely once you hit 40. Maybe even in the mid-30s.

Yes, the quests are mostly clustered below that level as well. Though, I've got a higher level quest in mind, I just need to flesh out the rest of the details.

Will the new quest involve interaction with other players?

Probably not directly. Player interaction is tricky to get right. Did you have any specific ideas?

What about something where non-related players could form alliances to attack other players?

You mean like clan warfare?

Not clan -- because the characters shouldn't be developed by the same person. More like co-operative warfare.

That's what I'm talking about, the clan would have multiple people participating in it on both sides. To make it work well would require more people playing though. Maybe you could get some of your writer friends playing and you could start up a Writer's Clan.

Pssh, you say that as if writers spend most of their time writing or something!
