PVP in The Broken Lands

I think that there is a lot of optimism among the players and alliances there now to make it into something worthwhile and unique, and efforts are being made across the entire continent. Time will tell, for sure.

The BL will only be as dynamic and different from Elgea in gameplay as those who settle there make it"....good luck with that.  If you have the same people with the same attitudes and beliefs about how to play the game and how the game should be played you will end up with the same result.  If you want something different you have to express yourself and try to convince others...though the if the formula for what some consider "success" in Illy is the same you will probably end up with the same stagnation.  Only a different vision for TBL has any chance of making TBL different, and that takes leadership with a vision.  So far I think most leaders would rather "win" than really change how TBL operates in comparison to Elgea.

I'm not sure where the optimism is coming from...I don't see much of it expressed in this forum...but maybe I've missed something.  Do let me know where I should point my eyes so that I don't miss it.

And you are right, "time will tell."
