With the main demographics being teens, the element of being famous could pose issues. Many adults including myself try to diffuse the reality of famous. This could be improved upon where Famous could be based on merit for the game.
As many noticed the character pages have updated to advertise the game. The famous feature is not really meant for fellow players, but for introduction of new players into the game. By having people look into our character profile and give them a small gimp into the game.
Looking into this, I think by giving the players a choice to create their own bio along with information to promote the game like You Tube Channels, Social Networks like Facebook and Twitter.
If a link was provided in the player profile for the visitor viewing the profile directly to try out the game, and the player's profile would earn merit points. If the player buys Varium, they would earn something else.
Right now, it will be difficult because there will be much in-game politics for essentially getting votes.
As I view now, only 2 servers are active. Our senior players have worked very hard to set up something special (tournaments) for players that gives them an opportunity show their skills and indirectly promote the game by video. We are not able to do this anymore, so essentially the game also looses by not giving us opportunity to promote with competition beyond how many and how fast. I am deeply sadden.
