Like many of you out there, I have been playing PW since its launch and I believe I am not alone when I say that the old PW was better then the one we currently have.
The old PW aloud for, in my opinion, better Role play and more fun. Being a trader selling velvet and spices while trying to dodge bandits was some of the most fun I have ever got out of the game. Not to mention being a Town Watch and guarding a city and taxing people who wanted to enter the city.
Also, In the newer versions of PW bandits are just terrible. Outlaws can only use a short bow and are incredibly gimped in melee and archery. I am not saying let bandits have War bows but at least let them be able to use longbows which in my opinion is the trademark weapon for the Outlaw. It has got to be so bad in some servers that commoner were used at a point to be outlaws instead of the actual outlaw faction because no one wants to be them. The only people that even go outlaw these days are people who first train up as a footmen or whatever and go click on the outlaws. I believe this is just wasted time because once you die you loose all of your stats and have to start again.
Next I would like to see maps such as Oceania (I believe it was called that) and Valley of the Swamps back because those were the two most memorable maps that i certainly enjoyed and believe many other enjoyed as well.
I believe PW should go back to its roots but keep some nice features that it has implemented over these many months. I enjoy the ability to keep the money you earned (until at least the server resets) which proved to be very annoying in the older versions of the mod. I also like the ships which further the role playing ability of the game. Another good thing that I have come to enjoy about the newer version of PW is the customization of the factions and the way of joining a faction.
Another feature that I like that has been added to PW is the farming feature, but not what it is used for. I do agree that eating food and sleeping is a more realistic process then just "sleeping it off" it has proved to me a more tiresome process that proves to discourage confrontations due to the amount of time it either takes to find food or a serf to make you some. I have played countless times where I am spending up to 30 minutes to find food. With this said I believe food should be used to increase hp further than the spawned amount, in this case increase your morale after a freshly baked bread. That to me would be worth the amount of time it takes for people to get the bread and or other food types.
