It'd be nice to see something that's an actual gamemode with some actual design, and not just the latest and greatest RP chat mod with rainbow colors and 10 thousand loving rules telling you what you aren't allowed to do. I don't want to have to manually change my avatar to whatever the admin's handicapped perspective of "In-Character" is and I don't want to have the chat constantly being flooded with "FREEKILL!" or have to be pulled into a "sit" or something equally handicapped and present my case to the server dictator whenever I kill some moron for their gear, effectively obliterating the immersion. There shouldn't be 10 million rules, the rules should be enforced through the gamemode and not some gigantic team of power tripped admins.
A massive map doesn't mean much if there's nothing to do in it. Medieval Roleplay has a massive map but there's effectively nothing to do with it except "interact" socially with a bunch of pre-teen role-players who are constantly hungry for their next excuse to murder somebody without getting banned. You could wander around in that server for hours and accomplish absolutely nothing. What's the point? You might as well just be teleporting around to where everyone else is because there's no gameplay to be found anywhere else. There should be NPC's that you can fight and loot or some actually interesting areas to explore, and actual rewards for exploring. Not to mention, Blockland is a game about building, and I'd like to see some innovation in that area when it comes to RP servers
Some kind of story would be nice, what you've got going on sounds cool, just something in the background that I could investigate could really bring life to what otherwise might be a pretty flat experience.
And some sort of character progression system. The reason why CRPG is such a popular gamemode despite being notoriously poorly designed is because you have goals that you can make progress on. Leveling up/boosting stats/ect. would make for a pretty prolonged experience
