Full helmet

Post by Keunthus »

It is starting to bug me. when I wear a full helmet, people still reconize me. Shouldn't all use #me tries to reconize him/her first
Or something. Or are just good at reconize legs?

First, Wrong forum, there is no proposal here.

Second, there are more ways to recongnize somebody than just their face.

If you read the mainpage thoroughly, you would know they will have character avatars eventually. You should also know you cannot see what other people are wearing. Orcs could tell you by scent, others by your voice.

OK Other question, why are some people wearing full plate all time? When its cold, they wear plate, when its hot, they wear plate. If we want make illarion real than you cant stand up without help if you fall down in platemail armor. So don't complain about unreal thinks like the fact that someone could recognize you if you wearing a full helmet and play RP. If you play fair the most others would also play fair. We have some chars who played. #me hides his face under a hood. And they don't get recognized.

That is no proposal.

And Grobul said that some people can recognize you by scent. I am assuming your a guy, so are you telling me, some girl that you know doesnt where this particular perfume, and when you smell it you know its her. Happens to me. Same thing with the game, the shape of the body, the smell, the voice, the walk, any number of diffrent things go into recognizing somebody. The face is just the easiest one, but there are a thousand others.

Another example of this, The Odyssey by Homer. The maid recognized Odyssious(spelling) by the scar on his leg, His disguise was created by the Goddess Athena, only that scar told the maid who he was. Just proves there are more than one way to recognize a person.

Try it sometimes :wink: It truly works. Or you must have someone in front of you that doesn't play along, but that would be quite unfair.

I'm speaking out of own experience, just so you know
