One way to spice up new and existing zones. World Tomes:

I wasn't talking down to you. I think that you should be continuing with this idea, but I think it should be driven by something that interests you and to find out if this interests others. If it does, then how many others?

Now, let's not get into this immersion thing again. There are so many different elements to a growing MMO that can keep others interested and excited to be in this world in several ways. Giving the lore heavy and action elements in Grindy instanced content, Behests, Battlecraft Leves, local levequest, side quests, XP grind parties, main scenario missions... the list goes on and on.

I think that your suggestion is valid and should be looked at and the very generic list above are things that may not keep you immersed or other players who feel similar to you, but to others... perhaps so! There should be those elements there as you suggested to reach out to that type of player. So, let me be direct, let's just drop immersion for now. Let me explain...

The term is only being thrown around players, but how SE describes where they want the game is for it to be enjoyed by all types of gamers. They don't say immersed by all gamers because it is an impossible standard. However, I believe that having elements for all types of gamers and enticing them to play and actually enjoy what they are playing... that is a little more realistic. If the game is highly enjoyable that will more than likely lead to being immersed now, wouldn't it?

I agree on dropping the immersion thing, I'll just leave it at thinking having a wellspring of information and lore inside of the game would make my gameplay experience that much better.
