If you created a char with lots of int and wis for spellcasting and then wanna become a fighter, you kinda need to create a new char, or suffer from being much worse than other fighters? This is why we should consider changing the stat selection system from allocation limiting to results limiting. ...

If you go back and re-read my note, I think you'll see that we are almost completely in agreement, Zhar. I mean, I am actually of the opinion that spatial awareness is actually in the can't be done without completely rewriting Genesis one way or another category, and that inter-container combat is a...

Let's get back to the discussion and come up with some ideas how to remedy the problem (if we decide that there is a problem) with race stat modifiers. I think you put the cart (poll) before the beating of the possibly dead horse, such that I am not sure we'll get much of anywhere. Still, I think t...

The Elven Archers are also scheduled for recode. [...] we're still at the planning stages. I can't recall the thread(s) that spawned this, but I've been kicking around a couple thoughts about Genesis' lack of spatial awareness and the difficulties of location based combat...

Guilds are much more static things and many of them have specific lore that needs to be honored. It should be possible to role play against type with a guild. However, it is ...

One thing that I would find illuminating, and might be good for community processing of this issue, would be a well-constructed list of what people consider to be the most reprehensible examples of guild councils who show full disregard for roleplay. What guilds are we talking about? Is it the enti...

Normaly I wouldn't suggest this since I like the idea of infiltrating enemy teams and trying to corrupt goodies but lately I have seen somethings that just makes me wonder what happened to Genesis. I remember talks about Calians teaming with DA (I did it too! :P) when DAs opened even back then ther...
