The game will go in another direction than you might think right now.
The “normal” gameplay, fighting NPCs, crafting, pvp and so on will only be one aspect of the game.
The other aspect will be the customization, building of estates and worlds. And finally quests made by players for players along with a rating system and regular contests about who created the best stuff.
Players will be able to upload their own graphics and sounds; so they can run about as practically everything they want. That’ll be the Gonzo(‘crazy’) aspect of the game, as players will be able to unfold their creativity. So if players want to run about with this crowned-king-body, why not? If they want to be a dragon, a blob or a tank, why not? You get my drift…
