Questions...
Ok, sit back and relax cuz I got a lot to say. We're approaching year 5 of this great underated, amazing game. I wonder everyday who owns the list server and what would happen if it were to go down. I remember back when there were as much as 3 pages of servers in year 1. Then when the list server whent down, the world came tumbling down. It only lasted around 2 weeks or so, but we came back to our game to find that 80% of the community just vanished, and hardly any came back.
We survived this ordeal though, with the help of Jazz 2 City. Even then that only lasted so long because suddenly it lost funds I guess and we were left with jazz 2 universe. Well that didn't last long as it required a lot of maintenence. At this point when Jazz 2 Universe whent down, I left the community, thinking that there was no hope in this dieing game. But when my friend found jazz 2 online, I bounced back to check it out. Lo and behold, Jazz wasn't dead as I had expected. And so to this day, the game is kind of on a life support system. Now, onto the point of this topic.
What would happen if slowly everybody lost intrest in this game? What if the list server goes down again? Would we lose 20%?50? What if they we couldn't get another list server? Is jazz one of the last few games in which people aren't running around slicing each other in half, with blood splattered walls and carnage all around? Is this truly one of this last kid friendly games in which teenagers and adults also enjoy?
I personaly can't imagine a world without our little green rabbit. If this game were to fall, I wouldn't have much left to do in my life. No level making. No tileset making. Nothing. I now wonder if jazz was doomed to fail, aside from it being one of the best, if not the best, game of all time IMO. If jazz 2 were to fall, the last of the classic seris would die. I also wonder who would ever make a great side scroller platformer as customizable as the great green rabbit.
