If i was a Developer.

[Poo]

nothing fancy.
no game changes.

just the simple things in life that make me smile.
at work i take lunch and i sit back and do something that will make me smile.
play a app on my phone.
crank up the laptop and play a little UO.
sit on a bench and enjoy the fresh air.

so i was thinking if i was a Dev and i was on my lunch break what would i do.....

well, first off im kind of a smart pancake so i would probably log into some random shard and walk into some random persons house and trap one of their supply chests with some sort of random thing.... like it makes their mouse work backwards when the open the chest... but only for a a couple seconds.... just enough time for them to think they are having a stroke.

id go and find myself some UT macroer and put him somewhere off the map.... Destard AW room or something.... neked.

just small things that would make me smile.
i think i would do that.

which is why when i log in sometimes i sit and look around my castle to see what @Kyronix or @Mesanna may have done to my stuff to play with my mind, then i think - nothing they wouldnt do that..... then i remember that I WOULD do that and i go back to checking....

This is what they do on their lunch break; turn zombies into purple llamas.



No wait, this is what they do because they have excellent coding skills and always pay attention to details.

It's worse than that, they're in our wallets.

If I was a dev...when I put new things into the game i'd test them first. The new bods don't seem to be tested at all...or even researched... Good Idea but bad testing. You get a C-

If I were a DEV I'd have more pride in my game and I'd fix all the things like this:


And This:



Because it just looks sloppy and horrible and I'd fix a bunch of the other missing tiles all over and put some new fresh deco around in the cities. Or hold a contest to have folk help give suggestions to revitalize a city. Or even hold a competition between Governors to revamp their city allow each of them to redesign their city on some test server or something and the winning design goes out.

And then I'd fire that artist and get one who can understand the complications of UO perspectives and how to use texturing and shading. Someone who actually cares about matching the aesthetics already in the game.

Maybe I'd entertain the idea of hiring some of the folks who are super talented from free servers... I mean if you can't beat them then hire them so they won't be working for free servers anymore and will make the real deal better.

But then everyone else would hate you.

I would find another job that pays better.
