Re: Changeling / Shapeshifters
Just to give you a perspective from other MUD, werewolves: - 3 forms: base, wolf, and combat form/werewolf in most general sense (crinos if anyone played World of Darkness) - different forms giving different bonuses: wolf = sneak, hide, tracking, awareness and such, werewolf = combat, all forms havi...

Re: Crafting Project
So, let me get on the flame bandwagon (and crafting) and state that (purely in my own opinion), sadly, crafting in Genesis is non-existent and "craft guilds" as they are called are a joke out of the guild type. As long as you can advance in ranks and train skills without actually doing an...

Re: Crafting Project
I believe you got to the bottom of the problem Amberlee. What could possibly be done to help people stay with the game would be the expansion of the social sphere. Newsletters, maybe some other forms of out-of-game communication/notification and so on. But I believe we stray too far off topic here n...

Re: Crafting Project
Sinusoid or constant doesn't matter. It's still people who either log in for a couple hours or people who log in for a couple of minutes. Of the two I'd rather have the former than the latter populate the game.

Re: Crafting Project
No offense, but I'd rather have a couple people that stay for longer periods of time than many people who log in to stay for no longer than an hour. Genesis (and I guess any other MMO out there) doesn't really cater to such people (bar the subscription fees but that's out the window for us), and I d...

Re: Crafting Project
I understand your concerns, but you must also understand that changing the way feature like herbing would not just change quite a bit of fundamental things around the donut but also require a lot of coding time that could be spent on something else.

Re: Crafting Project
Dear Strider, why I generally agree with your way of thinking there are a couple of other factors you must consider: @ making herbing a social activity: Be it by the way of "assisting" someone in gathering herbs, thus reducing the required time for herbing, or placing powerful NPCs around ...
