I wouldn't even mind a repair option. As long as the repair cost some percentage of the original material cost, not just gold, it would still keep the economy flowing and get rid of having to remake a weapon or armor every few hours. If they add in a small durability increase across the board, and then introduce a repair system like that, I think it could work well.
Definitely happy to be back. Feels like coming home.
Understandable, and there is risk. But I'm fond of saying that if you want innovation you gotta take chances. That goes for designers as well as the people funding them.
Definitely excited about this Kickstarter. Can't wait to see what's in store.
I know I would appreciate having to have some knowledge about certain enemies to better be able to kill them. I wouldn't support an all or nothing kind of approach, where you'd get steamrolled unless you did exactly this one particular build. However, being able to be a more efficient killing machine if you know something about the enemy sounds good.
After some additional thought, I am thinking that an early bird immortal tier might be nice. A little discount and sufficiently limited. Just my 2 cents.
Great post with many valid points. For this game my personal play desire is around about 95% PvE. However, it does make things so much more interesting if there is that 5% risk of demons invading.
Gotta say that would be absolutely awesome of y'all to put a few early birds on the website. You guys are definitely looking like a company to get behind.
@benseine Exactly what I was thinking. I would love both abominations and angels to have different flavors depending upon what you started as. I can completely understand if that isn't included as it might increase cost/time, but I think it would be awesome.
Plus, I'm thinking that any KS specific stuff would only be for the KS. So, they still get some extra.
@gothix 100% agree. cannot possibly agree enough with this.
Personally I'm fine with no more stretch goals past what we've gotten. If, or maybe a few more that will go into a free expansion at some point after release. With something like this, I'm fine with the KISS approach. Do what you set out to do, and think about more features at a later time.
Outstanding. Thanks for getting the store up and running so quickly.
Personally I love that MMOs such as fractured, and a few others, are moving towards this approach. So absolutely sick of the class approach. I mean innovating ain't that hard.
@Savitr
This is a good point. I'm at immortal, but none of the higher tiers really have anything I want. Yet, I still would like a means to continue supporting the game. However, I personally dont need additional stretch goals to do that, just store stuff, like cosmetics, skins, pets, mounts, etc.
Yeah xsolla has been a love/hate thing for me, but it seems to be the go to currently.
@mrchipps I completely agree. It's really hard to combat this, but other games have addressed this in pretty unique ways. For example, using the approach of making "information" an in game item that is needed for certain things. Therefore if you - the player - knows something, your character can't utilize it.
