HELLO!
Alright, to start off with, I know I literally just came to the server but I still feel like this would be a cool adition.
with that out of the way, this is what I had in mind.
We've all played minecraft for some time and we are all familiar with the classic survival, mine, grind, fall in lava, kill the dragon, rinse and repeat. Not gonna lie, I haven't spent much time roaming the servers since I get bored of the huge player bases with 1000 players online 24/7 with your usual minigames and the crazy amount of content which repeats on each and every one of them.
why not make something new? something different. An adventure that will go beyond your regular minecraft. An adventure that will have stories which will follow it as time passes on.
My idea would consist of constructing different locations throughout the world, for example (I love medieval/fantasy stuff) dwarven city, elven forest, medieval harbour invaded by pirates, mountain castles and many other. all of those could hold different quests where player could earn money or some other rewards. What if we disable the end and make it an exclusive reward after you finish a quest. I also saw a request for rocket elytra, it could easily be solved, just make the player go through a bunch of quests so they earn it. Maybe some quests will hold extremely hard puzzles rather than usual boss fights.
Not only that, those locations can be organised to have PvP events that would be limited for a certain time. One week a medieval harbour is filled with friendly people, and the other, it's a deathzone where pvp is enabled, you enter by your own risk. If you die, others keep your loot. Maybe even disable player names when you enter that area so there's no hate or revenge involved after the fight. keep it fair and square.
Maybe those quests could have amazing artefacts that only the best can get, imagine a 20v20 battle with 2 overpowered leaders on each side, followed by their teams. Those epic fights could be that small thing that will make this server stand out between the ocean of others and make you more famous.
I know it's a lot of work and it'll take time to perfect everything. I would love to show you my skills through building and/or writing stories/quests although it'll take time since I currently build in survival and I don't want to ask for creative mode or fly mode until I've proven myself worthy.
What do you say? Will you go for another round of pointless grinding or will you embark on a new adventure alone or with your friends.
I look forward for your answer!
edit: I just read the 5 year anniversary post and saw that some people would like some aditional content, honestly, this could be it
