@iamlejnd said in How important are the account quests?:
Why exactly is there such an emphasis on the Fendyr pet ? What benefits/functions does it bring ?
It's cute and people like cuteness. 
Besides that, nothing. It's a cosmetic pet that just follows you around. And.. it's cute.
There is no quick shortcut to level up.
Took me 6 months of being active every day to reach level 167. Game is 2 years away, so anyone still has time to level up. But not without being active.
That's the whole point, these are not just a free gifts, these are rewards for active engagement with community and for promoting Fractured.
@demilich said in Character Customization?:
Also I personally don't get why bdo's customizator is supposed to be so great
i find it lacking compared to others
Because even the smallest details were customizable, down to the face structure which was almost free form (hair style was pretty free form as well). People spent hours (days) working on their characters to create a truly unique character that would be only their own without any real chance of someone making exactly the same one.
People even created pretty realistic looking celebrities by playing with character creator.

I'm surprised it's a neutral transformation (blame Might and Magic for that!).
A lich with aura, and a lich with horns.
@warlunhardt said in Suggestions:
- No Bank System like in Albion Online, that system was a pain, just a bank system in which we have a Bank on every town and can access it everywhere without having to transfer items between towns. It was a real drawback on Albion, We are fine with the Weight limit on Bags but lets leave the bank as its been on most mmorpgs.
This will not happen. The point of this MMO is that you have to transfer your goods from one town to another to trade them. With this being full loot MMO, the point is for someone to steal your loot on your way to other town if you do not take precautions, group up with friends, hire escort, etc.
So yeah, no avoiding travel dangers for you.

You don't need to keep opening multiple threads about the same thing.
Maybe I'm mistaken but I haven't seen a single MMO that didn't wipe player progress from Alpha, and it let people start on release with already jacked up characters.
Most I've seen is a MMO not wiping progress from open beta. But since open beta was free for all to join, I guess that's cool.
It's fun to have something to do while waiting for the game to release.
Also some cool unique cosmetic rewards come with it.
Fractured has an advantage that it will give players "the old school MMORPG feel to it" and players are here because they want that. So Fractured does not need to include "super ultra 16-D multi laser sun translucence support that will come with DirectX 16".
Isometric MMORPG only needs "so much" in graphics department for it to be wonderful. Graphics that we have seen in videos that already exist, are already awesome, and they will be more than good for decades to come, for this type of game.
"Bug infestation for your house" (decorative housing options) for people that engaged in pre-alpha.
@jetah said in About the VIP membership:
@gothix
DS said they wouldnt sell power. The VIP isn’t power if it’s traded.DS wouldnt be breaking their word because they aren’t directly selling items.
No.
They didn't just say "they wouldn't sell power". They said "There will be no P2W".
Allowing RMT would be P2W.
@zidroc said in A Giant Betlee:
My dad tells a story about a time he lured a pker into his house, where he then put a box on the ground by the door blocking the guy in. He then revealed his tamed dragon hidden under a invisibility spell and killed the dude. The pker tried to escape but couldn't, and had no idea why bc apparently the boxes couldn't be seen.
What if PKer was your father, but when he got killed, other man took you in and never told you about it? 
If game introduces that, many people will reconsider playing it in the first place (including me). There is no way in hell I'm playing a game with RMT, and so will not many others.
Not to mention that that would also mean DS breaking their word, which would be horrible for their rep.
@meninodeouro said in Pre-Alpha Cape:
I liked the idea of a unique dye.
Hopefully such dye would be infinite-use perma dye then, because if it's that dye that you use one time, and then you lose your armor, that would suck.
It's why I'd rather opt for a skin of some kind, or a cape, pet, anything permanent.
@demilich How about humans (using steampunk tech) being able to mount their torso on to a different types of "legware" and use those like mounts.
For example "classic" would come by default when you start to play, and it would be classic walking/running speed, and "walker 9000" would be one of available mounts that would increase your movement speed when you are mounted on that one?
Hmmm it says "all backers" and not "all kick starter backers", and forum crowdfunding is an extension of KS campaign for those players who couldn't use KS payment methods, so I wouldn't bet on that it is only for KS backers.
Someone official should be able to answer you this with certainty.
If I'd have to bet, I'd say that basic customization will let you chose among the basic skin colors for your character, and cash shop palette will offer some artsy mixed and matched special skin skins.
I never thought I will ever be using "skin skins" in a sentence. 
@dcccxix said in A quick recap about the foundation and its future:
It seems like it was something that should've motivated players to communicate via forums more, creating an active and lively community, but amouts of details about the game is so scarse that people barely have anything to talk about.
You can check my post history if you wish.
I've been here 6 months now and have been posting every day multiple times in various threads. I'm at ~900 posts right now, and not a single one of those posts have been just a "daily post" comment. Each one of my posts has an actual content, and I've posted on average 5 posts per day through entire 6 months I've been here.
So it's not correct that you can't be active and that you are forced to just spam "daily post" comment for your daily posts.

Edit: Accidently put my comment in your post instead of a reply. that's a first.
That's a cool way to reply for a mod. 
Just sign yourself and that's it.
