So, any guesses on what the event might be about? And usually when theres an event, in my view, something is gonna be previewed/released. Halloween, we got a taste of the battle system. Christmas, we had a preview to the Gaia Hangouts. Im just wondering what to expect this time. Surely, not the battle system, but maybe more fishing, mini games, or the casino might open.
Well, if I can just speculate, I think that we're going to get a new town. If you think about it, the selection of housing items is rather limited, and Jakobo said in his radio interview that there were going to be many new towns coming soon, so that's my personal theory, as well as something that I'm kinda irrationally hoping for. It doesn't make sense to release another major site feature after housing, but a town is just more space, more items. Not as big of a strain on the coders and programmers and such. And L0cke was talking about a lot of new art for the upcoming event... That means either a Christmas-style plot progression or something else that requires a lot of art, like a TOWN. So, that's my theory.
A new town would be a rather good thing, less strain, glitches, and the like. Along with the new town would come new items, new npcs, and new art. But towns usually focus on something.
Barton, the quiet little suburb.
Gambino, the tropical island paradise.
Durem, the rich, urban city.
Aekea, the backwater industry town.
So, if there was something new, what would it focus on? Fishing? A New system? Perhaps they will make a new town, but have it center on something new later. Im merely speculating, of course.
