  • Regardless of your personal stance on it as an IRL hot-button issue, it's not exactly nature we're talking about, now is it? Nor any kind of nature simulator.

    There's many people who draw comfort from being able to naturally express thems…
  • (Quote) Thanks for the admin attention! I would argue it's still the same premise, due to Achaea's sheer novelty at the time of release, and its originality still holds strong for "people being around to play with". Is that all Starmourn is g…
  • EDIT: bold are a few thoughts I have to answer, as I am hardly some paragon of communication. (Quote) I see a disparity in the games that exist, and the same mindset driving this one. Much of which has been raised in this thread, i…
  • (Quote) Just being part of the community isn't. The type of passion evident from the kind of player we're talking about isn't something that just "happens". We're talking about an invested player, even if it's just emotionally.

    And…
  • (Quote) The roleplay (or at least in other words, a friendly environment) is exactly what keeps people coming back, at least in my experience. Which seems to make it our responsibility to do so, if the genre survives.

    I agre…
  • I have sabers with light. Ergo, lightsabers, ergo, my chosen class. Sweet!
  • (Quote) Please share what you were trying to say
  • I am not looking forward to bandits ganking and holding my xp for ransom.
  • How big is this "built from the ground up" rapture revamp, or whatever you want to call it?

    Are the changes so much that we wouldn't even recognize similarities with the other IREs? What will be the same?
  • Good news! I'll just keep waiting patiently for news about the new class. I am eagerly anticipating the jedi star kith class. I'd love to know more about what kind of lightsabers weapons and Force powers class abilities to look forward to.
  • How much is this helpful, before the game launches? How much does it actually hurt?

    I know only that, when I personally am looking at these things, I click on a link for an upcoming game and now I have a stigma. This game already d…
  • (Quote) I have lost more of my life than I'd care to admit to that game. Looking under all the things, ever was never quite so tediously rewarding.
  • (Quote) It's not just artifacts, though. Player skill is certainly important, but character skill is extremely important as well, and that's a credit purchase too.

    That's part of the reason I'm so stoked for this game, actua…
  • It's certainly not as simple as good vs. evil, or light vs. dark, that much seems clear. Both seem rather outside any sense of moral justifications. Though people could certainly form such philosophies, they seem rather irrelevant to the dichotomy t…
  • (Quote) They have not, though there are a few forum posts made to promote it, mostly concurrent with the blog announcements. And they don't seem to keep up with the active listings for the games that are actually online (though I don't know w…
  • As far as MUDs go, I only really dabble. The IREs somehow caught my attention and kept it, though.

    For the most part I tend to stick to MUSHes instead. Though I haven't really been too consistent with any of them since Atonement RPI went …
  • Still pushing on tms? I'm curious why IRE doesn't push harder on other sites, too, or how valuable that site even is. Afaik, tms is owned by aard or some such, which is a part of why it's always on top there.

    Even so, I wonder how many pe…
  • As long as it doesn't amount to "let your computer protect you from this" I'll be cool with it. If I can do something about it, rather than let my character/ship be paralyzed as whatever abilities leech whatever I've worked for happen, I'll b…

  • In the Ascendency I see the greatest potential to betray.
  • (Quote) The closest they came during each of the four passes was something like 1050 miles, so they're all on the "horizon" of the Earth, so to speak. Still pretty neat to see, imho.

  • It's at least confirmed it's a kith user, and I'm gonna speculate star kith to the nanoseer's void.

    And those swords! Clearly it's not going to be anything like the Jedi, but I still wanna be a sword-wielding space wizard.
  • (Quote) I'll join you in being a lonely Nath-el. Especially because nobody else is picking them. I'd be pleased to buck the 'norms' and play the sole bug lady who's cool with not having a hive around, because no MUD is complete without som…
  • (Quote) Why does it have to get messy? Time is generally considered another dimension anyway. Paradoxes/changing time can be rendered irrelevant with some of the schools of thought that TT doesn't work that way, anyway. It just makes the effe…
  • (Quote) Following the Iron Realms model for the rest of their games it's free, and always will be.

    What costs money is an in-game currency called 'credits', which can be used to buy perks for your character or sold to other players…
  • I wonder how pronounced the faction enmity is. I don't even know the org culture yet and I'm already plotting traitor RP, lol
  • (Quote) A lot of the lasting RP culture, as with the other games, is going to come from those of us who use it in the early days, and how.

    That's what I can't wait for. We have a completely clean slate on the player-culture side of…

  • It's really neat that it's not just fluff in the lore, but mechanical fluff in the game!

    It seems like there's going to be a lot of stuff with a new approach about it in this system, regardless of games we come from before. It's fantastic…
  • I refuse to decide until I alt on all of them a few dozen times each.
