Re: Was there a time when Illarion had more than 10 players

Well, please don't base your assessment of skillgain on just three hours. I fully understand those three hours sucked if you compare against other players. But you really need to take your total time into account, also all those hours before when you also learned a lot of skill. From what I read, y...

Re: Was there a time when Illarion had more than 10 players

Can you explain why you feel that this game punishes certain ways of playing? As written above, it is important for us to understand how features are perceived. All numbers don't matter if the players feel differently to what is reality. I understand the staff feels differently and looks at this fr...

Re: Was there a time when Illarion had more than 10 players

When I started playing in 2002, there were typically about 20 players online on average. This was a much different time though, Runescape/Ultima Shards were absurdly popular and this let people know that "mom and pop" games were fun. Compared to today where not many look for small indie mu...

Re: Open Brainstorming on Player Involvement

Everybody uses the same armor. Same 2-3 weapons. I miss seeing end-game chars walking around with rapiers or just normal ol' daggers. I know that this is harder to balance, but currently if players want to keep their chars competitive they have to jump on the lvl 100 weapons bandwagon. Removing opt...

Re: Current Game Thoughts

In summary: In whatever way you play, you get the same amount of skill over time. So, if you spend ten hours ingame and skill ten minutes or four hours for skilling, in the end, you will get the same skill out of it. The more actions you do over time, the less you learn from each action; but you do...

A comment to foosers proposal. You have to consider that taxes are more than a money sink, they are also largely the primary source of magic gems.

I see comments here about crafters not wanting/needing gems. Magic gems were never meant to only be put/used in weapons. That was simply their first implementation. It can be expected that this will change. =)

Which i might add is far closer to real weapon use ,aside from an off hand parry weapon ,duel w...

Re: Lizard Fishing

One fishing pole can yield almost 1000 fish and fishing poles no longer need to be fixed with thread. Lizards can also still eat raw fish, so once you get a fishing pole (which should be a simple task), you're set for quite some time.
