Quests

Well there is already /achievements which is kind of like quests

 

Achievements are already in the game and work similarly. They include:
Processing drugs
Killing players
Killing sheriffs
Mining
Time played
and more
Each achievement has certain levels; for instance, if you mine 100 ores you're rewarded with 1000g. The next level for this achievement would be something like 500 ores and you're rewarded 5000g. (this is of course an example)
This goes for every achievement, and the reward is based off of difficulty. If you would like to check completed or achievements in progress, you can do /achievements. I think this covers everything, but I definitely could have left something out.

 

What @Jessedz is suggesting, is that we have an NPC with renewable random quests that are to be completed (daily, weekly) with gold prizes. This would be an alternative and less boring way to make money. Nobody even knows about the /achievements command, and half of them are extremely difficult to finish with very small rewards. They are also one time rewards. People like Famouz, @Pyrotheum @PoixMine have been playing the game much longer than others and have all their achievements completed many ages ago. The quests idea would make things more interesting for all to play. Perhaps this could even start the way to making players stay for more than just fights.
Excellent idea, with a couple modifications this should be a great addition to wildwest.

 

Oh I see, +1 then

 

This makes much more sense, thanks for the clarification.

 

Perhaps :^)

 

no there is just a popular plugin that has quests and basically everything what meep just said is in the plugin. I forgot what it was called probably like NPC+ or something like that.

 

The staff team would not only add three quest ideas that were given as spur of the moment suggestions to be a permanent addition to wildwest. Most likely, there would be threads and much discussion before any of this was actually put into effect. In fact, I would bet that @Fuiji and the other ww staff could come up with 10-20 easily. There are endless possibilities.
If you want to talk about "video game chores" you are a moderator on HG, and that is Brawl's server that requires the most grinding and play time to simply unlock one out of many classes. Quests are certainly not a "chore" To most people. They are an objective to follow, and most importantly, a reason to play.
Just as an example,
1. Kill a player with a sword (reward=5k)
2. Kill five players with a sword (reward= 20k)
3. Kill a sheriff using a sword (reward= 10k)
4. Travel 5k blocks (Reward 10k)
5. Rob 5 conductors (Reward 20k)
6. Sell a total of 1000 processed drugs (reward 10k)
7. Kill 25 Indians (reward 5k)
All ideas thought of in less than 5 minutes. There are endless ideas for quests that are simple and things that people may already do, but give them more of a reason to do these actions.

 

It does not necessarily have to be something we "enjoy" it is a reason to play the game. If you go on wyncraft, do you really think that the player base will enjoy all the hours of grinding, the ridiculous amount of quests, and the repetitive slaughter in dungeons? No. They only like the reward. It is the reward that matters. They do hours of grinding and quests simply to get to level 100 or buy that new cosmetic they want or armor. They want the rewards, not many care about the process of getting to it. As long as its a different process, it will retain a player base.
Any quest, no matter WHAT it is, is more interesting and fun than processing. Quests would be the most interesting way to make money on the server besides killing sheriffs.

PS: Wyncraft is just a random example of this that I thought of while writing it, if you want more examples I can send you a very extensive list of examples in PMs.
