Because there are at least two ways:

(A) Dragon Quest style (i.e., storyline advances itself somewhat through mandatory quests)

(B) ROSE, WoW, other MMORPG style (i.e., storyline is secondary)

So, which?

Depends on what you mean by B.

I wouldn't mind if you made the storyline optional to participate in, but by no means does that mean make it secondary in priority when you're doing things/updating.

I'm sort of against forcing people to participate in the storyline if they don't want to, but I'm also against the storyline taking a backseat to anything else in your priorities.

Which one has the storyline advance itself through not mandatory quests that you can do in (almost) any order?

Because that's what I vote. >_>

OK. And storyline narratives are in novel form, correct?

For the overall storyline yeah, but for quests I don't think that's be so great.

Yes, definitely. Although the storyline doesn't need to be fed to us, IMO, we could pick it up from various things said from NPCs and revealed during quests.

I figured, but it's likely I'll have some, uh, "cutscenes" in there... somewhere.

Stick figures with weapons fighting poorly drawn fish with scrolling marquee in the background?!

The marquee won't exactly be scrolling. I don't know how that works. I'm stupid, you see.

Isn't it an inherent property of marquee to scroll?

If it's not scrolling it does not belong.

Yes, but it scrolls sideways, you see, and to find out how to make it scroll up and down I would have to do something like type "w3 marquee" into the address bar and scroll down and stuff. And that's too hard.
