Well, we could do some quests to have the player visit the world, that sure 
could be fun if well done :)
As I said, I don't like that much the idea of having "main quest" to guide 
you - part of the game imo is to find quests and places to level up.

Quests are enough, as long as we actually write some. There hasn't been any 
change in maps in months, I think... and no real "quest" (by quest I mean 
something more than raffle [enter map, kill everything, take loot], I'm more 
thinking of necromancer / ancient pupland, pupland, scorn royalty quest)

No, didn't mean that, sorry if that wasn't clear :)
I meant "non main quests are important too, to help players discover the 
world, find backstories, whatever" - all the more important as I don't like 
this idea of main quest, there are only "side quests" ;)

Just my 2 cents of €
