@jazunia said in Race/alignment restrictions to skills/knowledge?:

I know it says we get access to all these skills and knowledge but if I'm good aligned won't it make accessing things on say Tartaros really difficult to achieve? Does this mean humans will have the best and fastest time getting things while the other races suffer or lag behind?

Actually, evil alignment has it harder.

For good guys it will be challenging to get the Tartaros knowledge, but not impossible. On the other hand, some knowledge from "good world" that is restricted to travel for the "bad guys" is impossible to get for them, no matter how hard they try.

So if you are fully good guy you CAN get all the knowledge.

If you are fully bad guy you CAN NOT get all the knowledge.

(which is a bit disappointing if you wish to play as a bad guy, but it seems to be devs choice)

@kitkiani said in Playing together with other races:

So I see how large the impact of choosing one's race is. The trouble is, my partner and I want to play different races (demon and beastman).

How will our game experience be changed here? Is it viable (or even possible) to play together as different races?

Yes, but you will have to chose which alignment you both want to play on.

• One can stay as (good) beast man, and the one that is playing an (evil) demon can work on rising the karma and become an angel (redeemed demon) and then you both can play as "good guys".

• One can stay as an (evil) demon, and the one that is playing a (good) beast man, can bring his karma all the way down and become an abomination (corrupted beast man), and then you both play as "bad guys"

As things stand now, according to the devs, guilds will be an alignment based, so you will not both be able to join the same guild if you are not of same alignment (but alignment can be changed as written above).

Also unless you are both of same alignment you will not be able to permanently live (have housing) on the same planet.

@gamble said in Seeing the stumbling releases lately like Crowfall and Shroud of the Avatar making me nervous:

are really letting down their supporters and having to scale back,

It's to get as much money from crowdfunding events as possible. Once the company is loaded, who cares how much they can actually deliver.

@jetah said in Anti-Magic School:

@gothix

why would someone just instantly die?

Because he was carrying anti-magic sword in his backpack that he looted somewhere before, and sword was rigged to blow when someone that had it used some magic ability.

Character walks around and suddenly, out of nowhere, dies and looses his all gear and stuff.

30% people in this situation might go to town and ask around why this happened, and how to prevent it in future.

70% people might instantly rage quit.

I like the changes there were made.

Also looking forward to the next spotlight, whenever it may come.

How about day / night cycles lasting different amount of time depending where you are on the map?

Far north and far south cycles being longer, while closer to equator (center) they would be shorter.

Yeah, yeah, I know it would be a bitch to implement the transitions between time zones.

EDIT: perhaps cycles could last differently on different planet.

If few special people can only play during night cycle, it's their problem really.

Whole world can't bend just to fit a few special people.

@drakoshattersword said in Advice on Kickstarter:

I am a poor college student. What do you guys suggest on what package I should get to have a moderate amount of ability to be good in the game?

I suggest you finish all your exams, so you can play the game when it's out.

@specter said in PSA: The Kickstarter has been postponed.:

I can't give a new date but the developers are still targeting June, just not the 1st of June.

That's ok.

At least you didn't write "the developers are still targeting 1st of June, just not 1st of June this year."

@divinedemon said in Confusion:

The game and ideas look great but I’m not seeing anything definitive on what to expect from gameplay or timeframe

Yeah it's too early to know many details about the game.

Time frame, I'd say is approximately 2 years till release. And when the game does release you can expect full loot PvP sandbox game, where guilds build their own cities and fight for control of territories, mixed with people doing crafting and all the standard stuff too.

3 planets (each tailored to fit particular player alignment) with people being able to travel from planet to planet (according to some rules and limitations).

Basically (in practice) I'd say it will be a guild conflict based sandbox PvP game, with solo players being able to set their mark as well.

@DonJavi

TLDR:

Good - you will generally not be attacking other players in PvP (unless in defense, and sometimes if you come across an evil player)

Evil - you will generally be attacking other players (all of them, besides perhaps your guild mates) and you will be stealing loot and resources they are carrying

Neutral - you will sometimes be attacking other players (both good ones, and evil ones) but only according to your personal code of conduct, for example only if they are different race, or only when they are farming in your territory, or by some other rule set you set for yourself, and not all the time.

Remember, if someone steals your stuff, you can find him and steal it back.

Just one thing. If mounts will be able to "carry stuff" (have inventory of their own) then players need to be able to kill those mounts and loot them, like killing and looting their owner.

If mounts would be able to carry stuff but not be able to get killed, that would become exploity way to protect your most valuable items.

OR create a herd of mad cats, and if you cross their path they jump on you say "hsss hssss meoow", scratch your eyeballs out, take your loot and leave.

They would of course be flagged as murderers to follow the game rules.

@jetah said in Night/Day events:

"hey my shift ends in a few hours, but asdlfkjsadfkjlsdfajk will be taking over"

I really, really, really do not want to see asdlfkjsadfkjlsdfajk taking over...

Lets please call him Bill or Mike, or whatever else.

If that name is so strong meme there, then perhaps each Spanish player can throw in 2 eur, a bit over thousand Spanish players can collect 2,500 eur, and then design Pipo together.

Doesn't that sound super cool? Yes, yes it does!
