Unfortunately, I think the players who have left the game right away, are probably not reading the forum.

I would like to see player characters promoted to leadership positions to be able to form faction politics. That was a cool feature of some UO shards, that you could actually play the guy in charge and there were people ready to take your place if you let your guard down. But from the responses of t...

Also a player is still free to play other characters when one is being in jail.

While I support criminal characters if they are good at their crime and don't get caught, I wholeheartedly support the labour camp system for criminals who do get caught, because this way it's fun to play a criminal. There is a risk involved of some imprisonment, which makes life of an outlaw a true...

Upon the 1st of Tanos the mercenary, with his gear all packed, stepped out the gates of Cadomyr. He held a bottle of local wine, which he learned to like, having decided to take it with him as a parting souvenir. The past two months he spent in the desert city were exhausting, physically and mental...

Gee, thanks to Eve for ripping my heart out. Anne was, well... Anne. I swear the two are attached like sisters.

Josephine, Tyan, Eve, Kraex, and yeah...Julia.

A bit of a tongue in cheek topic for roleplayers old and new, casual and hardcore, pertaining to Illarion or otherwise. Do you ever feel that a character becomes so challenging to play, because their in-character speech and action outright puts you to shame, as in "I would never do this for rea...

For the Galmairian mercenary the concept of honor did not really exist within the boundaries of professional duty. Hell, he could hardly call himself a Galmairian, it's just that the Don had the most promising coinpurse. Honor was his notion of street manner and civil conduct if anything. In combat...

Today was a really fun day playing Illarion. It started with a random quest in Runewick I ran into, and albeit it was very busy and not much dramatic roleplay had a chance to take place, the quest was action packed and dynamically moving, so well done staff team. But who I really want to mention in ...

Galmair is not corrupt! Galmair for life!

Website says that Illarion is "persistant world" game. I think game like Shadowbane or Wurm. Persistant: players can build, modify map, destroy. Things players do stay and leave trace, shape the world. Person A builds a house, goes inactive, house decays. Person B adventures, finds the rui...

Is a player able to become a faction leader with a proper support from fellow players, or will the NPCs always dominate the majority?
Realistically, how high up the political ladder can a player climb, if they do everything machiavellianly correct?

Is there any way to rise above Assistant in Galmair?
Thanks

Overall, not bad. Some quirks and strangeness in attitude, but not bad. The community seems a bit strange. A lot of hostility, divided opinions, and genuine OOC tension. When it comes to RPGs, don't think I've seen one where people are so untrusting of each other and argue so much, as if they purpos...

Doh! Remove this please.

A game breaking bug for any combatant. The red target circle is invisible now. You have no idea if you are attacking the monster or not, until it's too late.

Well, then the entire topic is pointless, aint it?
Sell for whatever gets you the good roleplay, how about that? Hew has the right idea!

Sigh... nobody in this thread is a business major I guess. Education time. Economy, real or game one, does not get ruined or depend on any of the reasons listed here. It's not about static sheets of prices, not about crafting guild laws, and definitely not about item quality, since that pretty much ...

How did you hear of Illarion, what made you decide to make a char and play? Saw an ad for VBU on some gaming forum. Actually thought VBU was the name of the game itself. Went to the site, and I guess the site was alluring enough to make me download the client. What was your first impression whether ...

I like the dangerous treks between the towns, each time is an adventure. While I do agree that the 'adventure' is pretty interesting - not knowing what monsters you're goign to come across today... ...maybe not everyone wants the adventure. Maybe the reason player X became a crafter is because he d...
