Ryzom : The Most Original MMORPG? Critical review by Josh Strife Hayes

Ryzom is not libre??? IGN review 2004

Nevrax Internet Archive (game discs and trailers etc)

This section is purely conjecture but when designing it is good to know where potential inspirations/similarities came from. To me Ryzom blueprint seems like a highly ambitious synthesis of many popular ideas at the time and there certainly is the potential for synergy.

• Encyclopedia idea like pages in everquest
• Death xp penalty, in EQ it was a deduction, here it is debt. EQ death returns to bind point, here returns you to special NPC.
• Nighttime darkness, dangerous world

• crafting
• world events

• Saga - long form narrative that the player is part of.
• Planet focus

• Realm vs Realm (karavan and Kami, see comments)

• Division of labor
• Dynamic resource spawns
• Player driven economy

• Homeworld
• Eve online
• Entropia universe

In some ways it feels like this game could be something like a starcraft mmo with the huge kiten raid events reminicent of the Zerg.
