Life and Death
-
I was wondering how do you guys think the game's death scenarios will be?
Do you lose the character permanently as if it was real life? or will you spawn somewhere? (i assume it's this obviously....its a game
) where would we spawn, back at a house we built (if we do have a place that we have settled) or do we just go a general spawn point?
-
You will lose all items on death but you can reclaim them if you make it to your corpse in time
-
@codetsilon
no perma-death. not sure where you'll respawn but you can be knocked out but not killed.
-
@absolutelywrecked oooh that's gonna be real annoying
-
@jetah knocked out? as in what AbsolutelyWrecked mentioned?
-
@codetsilon You have two health bars, endurance and health. Most attacks will do endurance damage and when you get to 0 endurance, your character becomes unconscious. Any further damage will damage health and you will die if health reaches 0. You will eventually wake up from the unconscious state if you're not killed.
When you're unconscious, your inventory can be looted but not your equipped items. When you're dead, everything can be taken.
Respawning hasn't been talked about much, but it has been mentioned that you can respawn in a nearby town.
-
@target Kinda reminds me of Pillars of Eternity.
-
@codetsilon
knocked out isn't death.
-
Hope knocked out time won't be too long. That would be annoying as hell if you just have to wait several minutes to get back on your feet again.
And what about npc creatures. Will they stop attacking you when you are knocked down and actually kill you. Or does that depends on the alignment of the creature?
-
I'm not certain about respawn points, but the possibility of constantly losing your items to better equipped players is definitely concerning.
-
@evolgrinz Depends on the alignment, a bear probably wont finish you, but a red npg brigand will..

@drekkennought There are no better equipped players. There's no gear progression.

@target One of the nice things about planning to be purely PvE: not something to really worry about either way.

Nobody can ever be pure PvE in this game as PvP can simply be forced on you by someone else with bad intentions.

No if you wanted to you really could be a pure PVE player, although it would limit your progression in the Knowledge system and possible hamper crafting depending on where resources needed to be crafted.

You could be relative save. But it's still an open pvp world, demons and probably humans can still invade and kill you if they wanted to.

@evolgrinz Most of Arboreus is safe.

sorry Evol but I believe you are wrong about this. There are parts of Arboreus that are completely safe always. one could successfully ALWAYS avoid even the possibility of PVP by never leaving such areas. ofc as already stated there are consequences to such a play style.
-
I'm a little surprised that the players who plan on being demons invading Arboreus never stop to wonder whether they'll even FIND any Beastmen in the PVP enabled areas.
