Honestly, while some don't look back on it fondly at all, I kinda miss the whole political overarching subplot we had going. It kind of just got put to a gigantic halt after...Snabd/The war, and it was kind of all Korvara as an overall setting had to stir things forward and force corners of Korv to actually acknowledge each other, lmao.
Nowadays, there's kind of a disconnect between different factions/nations overall, and to quote someone else, it kind of just feels like everyone is holed up in their own corner and has their own sandbox with their own thing going on without necessarily being acknowledged by the rest, to the point of where lore flat out doesn't align/add up between different parts of the setting, which makes it awkward to engage with as a result.
As an example (albeit a personal anecdote), I had some sort of incident happen where my character was questioning another's ability for not knowing about a concept (Focus Trails/Prints), only for me to realize shortly after that the other player wasn't really aware of it, so I kind of just felt like a douche for it. ...Afterwards, I realized I really only heard about that kind of thing from word of mouth, In-RP, without any sort of way to verify that it actually exists.
We kind of had that recently with the approval of the invention of the camera in Meiaquar, while there was a much more ancient-like model being developed in Geladyne at the SAME TIME. This isn't even anyone's fault, the former side likely had and could've had no idea of the current state of things all the way in Gela as a result of how the RP environment works.
Some form of reference, like an overall Korvara Lore Doc would go a long way to help to with maintaining things to be somewhat cohesive, imo.
It also doesn't help that, from what I understand, since most of the playerbase is 'trapped' on Korvara as it essentially sucked G6's activity dry, and as such is where you'll find people to actually interact with, some of those players actually preferred the overall vibes of G6 to Korv and are kind of just bringing it as a result of, you know, engaging with the game the way they prefer to, which in itself isn't much of an issue. It's not like the playerbase is nearly big enough to actually warrant a split between the preferred playstyles on both settings.
