Title: Ingame Jokes
Post by: Count on January 10, 2005, 06:03:44 pm

What do you think about some ingame jokes like fun magic items, joke creatures and things like that?

I mean things like the Boots of Blinding Speed (Morrowind), a dungeon with Blind Guardians (for those of you who don\'t know them: Blind Guardian is a metal band from germany) or some Magic Chilis that make you spit fire (and damage the creatures in front of you) for some time.

I just wannt to know wether you would like such things in the game or not. If you have own ideas on this, then please post them here, too.

What about a nosebiting spider that makes all the nearby female folks run away? Just kidding.

And on topic, I don\'t think they will be implemented... on a large scale. Some small jokes/eastereggs are always welcome I must say. Of course the devs shouldn\'t bother before the major things are implemented :]

look again some easter eggs are already there :o) although you might not catch them since some of them are pretty obscure.

Please, please, no jokes that are OOC. It breaks immersion if you stumble on things from outside the PS universe(s). Fun items are fine (as long as they could realistically exist in PS), but please don\'t put in things that make fun of PS. It\'s not a comic, nor is it a comedy thing.
I\'m fine with making fun of PS, but it should be done outside the game itself, like on the forum.

After thinking about this theme, I think it is good to have only jokes and easter eggs fitting into the game world. It brings in humor, but doesn\'t destroy the atmosphere. What do you think about some absurd and funny NPCs?
At the moment, I have no fitting example on my mind, but I will tell you when I have one.

pardon me those old ears are not as ....

Sharven is not bad either

That said Jayose is the only NPC I got in a dispute with, I believe I treated him of thief and scoundrel when he told me he had raised the price of a scroll I dearly wished to acquire :o)
