Well the game Morrowind has for example alcohol as a \"potion\" you can drink. But they aren\'t called \"Beer\" or something like that, they\'re called for example Sujamma. Thats the best way to include \"bad things\" (like alcohol, drugs and tobacco) into RPG\'s, just to make up names for them. Most \"children\" won\'t even know what it is if they\'re called something else. Then make the \"bad stuff\" decrease agility or intelligence on the character.
Wasap all first of all i want to say i don\'t belive smoking/drinking/drugs in the rw is a good idea. now onto the game
isn\'t the whole point of fantisey/rp to do things you can\'t or won\'t do in rw? i personaly would love to have smokeing and drinking in the game. realy imagin for a moment youre visiting a notoriouse tavern to say contact a smugler or hire an assassin or ask a wandering ranger about a dragons lair. ok you walk in and are sorounded by a loud din of manay voices. as you walk to the bar you hear a dwarf at a corner table shout to the barmaid \"another round of colas over here\"
you finaly get to the bar and ask for ____ you are directed to a small table agenest the back wall. you can clearly see the hooded figure nurseing a ginger-ale
ok now same situation a bit difrent setting
as you walk into the the tavern it takes your eyes a moment to ajust to the darknes tho the tavern is brightly from candles the light has little power to pirce the dense smoke which seems to hang about the room.
at a corner table a party of dwarvs are spending some exess gold they made from a recant trade trip. the party it seams has traveld from the distant mountan kingdom from the long pipe with an intricley carved broad bowl made from the rare metals native to that land. the leader calls to the barmaid to bring them another round of ale. you make your way to the bar and after inquireing to whom you seek you are directed to a small table near the back wall whare a hoded figure is seated.
as you squint through the smoke you can barely make out their features under the hood.
sorry i wrote so much once i start its hard to stop.
but anyway like i said im in faver of smokeing/drinking in the game
also in morrowind (a game i love) they have moon sugar
and many drinks are said to be beer,wisky ect.
anyway id like to thank those who read all this cya
