I agree. However I'm speaking based on personal preference rather
than the general case. Also, I hope that players aren't so stuck in
their rut of gameflow expectations that they would reject another
model simply because it was different. Hopefully, if implemented
properly, a more realistic world could be created which also appeals
to the average gamer.

I agree that monster location impacts game balance, but I don't
agree that this placement is immutable. A properly done ecology
might cause monster groups to migrate into new areas and drive
weaker monsters (or players) out. At the same time however,
stronger players would be keeping pretty close tabs on monster
movements so the conflict areas just migrate periodically. And
monsters migrating of course assumes that they can. If the ecology
were truely realistic, a monster could not invisibly migrate
through, say, a defended mountain pass to magically appear on the
other side.

Which might imply that the original mob balance was incorrect.
I grant that a large portion of the MMORPG community seems to enjoy
endless hours of whack-a-mole but I would hope that they might rise
to the occasion if a more complex alternative were presented to
them. As a hobbyist, I'm quite free to avoid pragmatism :).

This is an excellent point, and something I hadn't really
considered.

Very true. Though moving a staging area might make things more
interesting, as it would constantly challenge the player to learn
new strategies and explore new areas that they otherwise may never
see. And with OOG tools like web-boards, I really don't see much of
a danger in players losing track of their favorite mobs. Also,
there is the issue I stated above where mobs could only migrate to
undefended areas, through an open path. And they may not migrate at
all if there is some sort of directive related to the story-arc.
Would the orcs have left the gates of Mordor just because the Elves
gave them a whuppin? Unlikely. By the same token, players may be
able to take over areas and establish bases there if they cleared it
of monsters, and not have to fear random spawns. In time, weaker
players may migrate to the area, provided it remained defended by
stronger players (since any area with a tactical value would likely
continue to be assaulted by mobs).

This I don't agree with, and it doesn't make ecological sense.
Typically, the strength of mobs should be in direct proportion to
their distance from a populated area. An ecology supports this
because this is also in direct proportion to how commonly traveled
the area is. Towns would have guards, outposts, adventurers, etc.
All the strong monsters would have been either killed or migrated to
less dangerous areas. The exception would be a large migratory
thrust of powerful monsters, which may overrun a town and kill the
players living there. This is emergent behavior I'd love to see, as
it would create new game content without the intervention of the
designers.

I do like worlds where players are pitted againt players. This
typically creates player grouping and active socialization both
in-group and across group.

I agree. Though I think all these things coud work in a
properly-modeled ecology. The issue in my mind is how to implement
such an ecology with a reasonable amount of computing resources. AI
is typically the first thing to get thrown out in the interest of
preserving game performance.
And as I said above, defending those cities against the onslaught of
enimies is one of the particular reasons I had for implementing a
realistic ecology. Otherwise, all these attacks would have to be
planned and coded for by the designers.
I had a thought as I wrote my response, too... A tactical model
would have to be a part of any complete game ecology. Game worlds
aren't just a world that happens to be filled with scary monsters.
They are worlds that happen to be filled with scary monsters for a
reason. Those monsters, or at least some subgroups, will have goals
outside the standard migratory rules. These goals would need to be
taken into consideration along with any more general species needs.
Also, it would help to model things like mob grouping, group
identity, etc. People's self-interest often corresponds to what is
the best for the group rather than the individual. One proposed
reason being that it's easier to stay alive with other people around
than if you struck out on your own. An ecology that did not
sufficiently model social constructs for mobs would fall apart
fairly quickly.
