It would have been awesome if they had made it to where the players were able to log in as the monsters. Such as a monster client where you
started out as a lowly evil creature. If you made a kill you were given the option to control more powerful creatures in succession. Yes, there would be all kinds of collusion between monsters and people (friends gaming the system) but would also cause enough excitement/confusion to make the game fun. Non monster players would never really know until they fought a creature if it were being controlled by a wiley human. It would have given pvp/pker's a chance to be murderous within the limits of their monster type/stats. Not sure if this idea has been used by any MMOG's yet, but if not and someone wanted to use it, please do.
