There is some powerful truth in Amberlee's and subsequent posts. However, if the dwindling player base is our gravest ill, shouldn't it be enough if some people just play? You know, in the game, with the rest of us. Sure, Genesis is competing with a lot more games now, but it's also in a much bigger...

One thought that has recently occurred to me would be to somehow partner with Dead Gentlemen Productions, either by hiring them to film a short advertisement for Genesis via Youtube or by sponsoring one of their upcoming productions with enough money to get our website address in the credits for th...

Will we see any additions to the imbuement list anytime soon? When I saw the thread subject, I was also hoping that the range of known imbuments would expand, perhaps to include odd and mixed blessing imbuments. Honestly, I don't know how anyone can think the imbument system is complete without coc...

I think we should reward players who bring in other players to the game. Question is how. The problem seems to be twofold, determining that the character is a manifestation of an actually new player and deciding at what point of advancement that player can truly be considered to have been brought t...

Any thoughts or feedback on this?

Zhar, I believe you hand-waved past amberlee's point that these are not exclusive groups. I'd argue that the short-session player's we're talking about are most likely to be our current, normal- or extended-session players during a down-turn in their availability or commitment, or former regulars wh...

I am under no illusion that reimplementing herbing alone or as part of an integrated component gathering system is a trivial fix. However, a new crafting system would require something to produce components, and I do not know anyone who would argue in favor of the current system, let alone expanding...

I'm not say'n... I'm just say'n.

Zhar, thank you for your kind note and for scaling that wall of text so quickly. In regards to your points, I don't actually care to break “solo and scripted” herbing any further. The simple fact is that it is so incredibly boring that even herb-bots contemplate suicide. I would think offering an al...
