What’s all this talk about PvP? I’ve been patrolling the forums and encounter this. As much as anyone would like to deny it or not, PvP is such a HUGE, HUGE, HUGE aspect of any aspiring MMO since it fosters competition and the basest instinct of the human psyche: COMBAT.
Sure, MMOs like World of Warcraft, Guild Wars or… Flyff have some sort of PvP be it bashing each other’s face in or… yeah… bashing face.
Anyway, HKO is an MMO albeit a wholly different one, it’s still an MMO nonetheless. Although we cannot have “hundreds of identical mouthless kitties in a pit fight to the death” we would still have some form of competition for high scores. People love high scores, right? Well, the minigames is platform enough for people to compete in. I must admit, during the CB, we only had a teaspoonful of minigames to play. For the OB, on the other hand, we have around 20 (give or take) minigames. That’s a lot.
We may not have an option to thwak each other with small brooms until kingdom come but this form of “PvP’ is suited for the kind of game HKO wants to be.
I come here hat in hand to ask you people what kind of PvP you want for this game? I must admit that the system (minigames) cannot be changed and it’s already etched in stone. You can help me with thinking of how to reward players who hold the top scores for the minigames. In-game buffs, perhaps? Exclusive and premium items? You tell me.
Oh, and another favor, spread the word.

Rare items are always nice, it also encourages people to play a part of the game they might not otherwise.

Exclusive items! Like fashion items for yr character, or special hompy stuff … maybe a special pet?

I’m sad.
Oh well. =/
Wait…

I do play “escape the room”-type of casual games, not so much the kind that we experienced in OB… unless e.g. there’s some form of level progression like Diner Dash, and easy to click, etc… so I guess rare items will sort of encourage me to go in the mini games more often… but then, I’d probably give up once the high scores go beyond my capabilities, some of the high scores in the SanrioTown game centre already look quite impossible to break lol
BBE had a great suggestion during CB, how about letting us play mini games while we are building the house, would be great as it helps to break the boredom :P, sometimes you just run out of things to talk about…

I love “escape the room” types of games!
I like BBE’s suggestion.

NO PVP.
Dont introduce pvp or anything like it in hello kitty online!
Pvp dont belong in hello kittys world, hello kitty is aboute fun and cooperative play. Ive played this beta test, it is wonderful. Everyone helps, noone fragsteals and there is good attitude. ( oh yeay accept for this crappy food collector competition, it has been bad for all, bad mood. and i didnt even participate.)
Please, dont ever introduce pvp in hello kitty online. EVER. Pvp sucks.
Bless the time before WOW, when CS people stuck to cs, nowdays every mmorpg is flooded by these CS pvp people. Let them be in wow and geek around. And let hello kitty be uniqe, a safe haven, a fruit basket of happy gaming as it is ment to be.
Rest my word, if pvp will be enable, you will ruin a good and fun world, and make it black and evil. And thats not the hello kitty spirit.
Best regards. mike
