Designing money sinks that matter to players is a big and important challenge. Any suggestions?

Re: Racestat modifiers, 'ere we go again!

Actually a goblin transformed into an ogre is THE best fighting race. Not true, actually. Because I didn't want to incur a double-bonus for players as this rumour would seem to suggest, I flatlined all racial bonuses before the ogre bonuses get applied. Thus, all races are created equal when it com...

Re: Racestat modifiers, 'ere we go again!

When I started playing Genesis, I went through all the available help files and was a bit discouraged by the fact that a certain race (goblins) had the best combat stats (according to the info, and to the statements of some players). I wanted to play a human because of the story that I was, and stil...

Leaving notes in the game (Improving roleplay)

Hello, I have something in mind, and I do not know if it is already in the game since I do not know all of it yet. If it is indeed in the game, please rectify me. If not, consider moving this thread to the suggestion forum. In order to improve roleplay and kindle the flame of curiosity, I'd like to ...

Re: Attracting wizards/players from other MUDs or elsewhere

I've got experience collaborating in different open source projects. C/C++ are my top guns, have tinkered with python and java, and I have worked with LPC in the past (more than 10 years now..). One of the things I was looking forward to in Genesis was building something and/or fixing something. I l...

Re: Thank you for 20+ years

Nice combination! Can I ask you how it was going from a caster to a fighter? I'm new and still learning the ropes. I know almost nothing about the mystics, but I know they were casters, right?

Re: Thank you for 20+ years

December 12th 1992, early in the morning hours, Mumon completed the entrance quest to the Ancient Order of Mystics. I'd started playing Genesis roughly a month before that. Thank you Genesis for 20 great years! I'm looking forward to 20 more :) Also thank you Mecien, if you happen to read this, for...
