MabiPro: The Authentic Old-School Mabinogi Experience

Did you guys plan on adding in anything past G13? Like Puppetry, etc.

As far as I've heard, Bard might be the most popular thing large thing wanted from future updates at present. But basically anything major like that that might be added would be voted on in content polls in-game before actually being implemented.

I would prefer if they just did some number buffs to magical music.

Completely agree.

A lot of the future content throws off the the entire game. The OG skills in live had their load times removed(think Smash) because the future skills were so powerful. Adding skills like puppetry would require an overhaul on the entire balancing on the game.

Even smaller things like "available damage" has huge impact on the game; skill-stats, enchants, upgrade stones, etc..

If you want puppets, you should try live server. Everyone I'm playing with is playing on this server to avoid that kind of thing.

I find the whole point of this server to be a free landscape of all the trite and asinine content that has been added to the official game over the past years.

The last thing I would ever want here is stuff like puppetry; as I see that it would defeat the entire purpose of the existence of this server.

Going beyond the "I didn't like those newer things like puppetry, please don't" sort of answers, it would likely be very difficult to do, since this version of Mabinogi had not yet undergone the dynamic combat update.

Doing something Bard-like with magic music, or adding in Bard-like skills may prove to be easy, since they rely on playing an instrument which was already a thing.

Trying to replicate puppetry or ninja from the ground up? Assets, programming and all? That doesn't sound realistically feasible. Same might go for stories from later generations. The assets used in those story lines are at the very least not easily acquired, and while my worries may prove to be baseless, I worry that if we try and take newer assets from live mabi, that this server might suffer from (further?) legal issues.

Personally, what I would like to see done is for us as a server to be okay with introducing new, custom content. Maybe a new storyline. Maybe a new class. Give this server something unique to itself. Granted, a lot of people here want an authentic old school mabi experience, which is perfectly fine, but I was personally enthralled with "new custom content added regularly" part of the description to MabiPro on this site's front page as well.
