Heh, I knew that place was gonna get a librarian sooner or later... It looked like it was just inviting someone to take the place :)

Karyuu, sorry about the double-post, but I thought it would be more clear that way, since the things in those 2 posts were completely different.

Thanks for a very informative post anyway.
Helped with those things quite a lot :)

Hellios, I gotta say that I have already looked through your thread there, and immediately thought that it would be the perfect for me at this point atleast. I would love to be a miner/maker/crafter.

It was like the second after I had written my post :)

Divine guidance perhaps :)

Btw, I\'m kinda wondering the guild thing. I mean I know the concept and all and know the basics, homepages and stuff like that. Done some researching.

But thing is, or things if you will, is that I probably can\'t be accepted to any guilds (yet?)?

Nor I don\'t know what guild would suit me the best. I mean I don\'t have an aligment or anything for example... Not particularly good or evil or neutral if you wonder either... I\'m just this grey mass at the moment, but would really like to know which guild would be for me.

There are other things on my mind aswell. If and when you make more characters into the game, do you have to belong to a same guild with every char or is it just the opposite? Or is it so that only one of your chars can belong to a guild or or or...?

And can you leave a guild if it doesn\'t match your likings, way or just that you want to leave and do something else for example?

I have so many questions here, probably not wise to write all of them here...

But the bottom line is, if somebody could recommend a good guild for me, that accepts new members, even if they are noobs to this game, please feel free to do so.

I\'m planning on playing this game on a regular basis, learning about things and doing various things. For example becoming a miner/weapon maker or so... So really planning on getting into the game :)

I hope to contribute in that way also.

Ah yes, an \"incident\"... :) I understand.

So...

Freshly baked cookies, check.
Ice cold lemonade, check.

And for his musician, milk :)

And perhaps strong ale or wine, if I come up with some ;)

Hi Archon and thanks for the welcome :)

Sure I\'ll try to help if I just can.

Drey, do I need to sacrifice a goat for you?

Oh and Dave, can\'t you just post bugs and stuff in a thread like this?

I mean, I could give info about things that happened to me for example here?

Sure there would be some or even many things already discussed in the forums, but it would be from  my own personal experience. And I wouldn\'t expect any response to those that have already been discussed, just to brign them up. For those that aren\'t possibly discussed, well then they would be helpful (I would assume) for the makers of the game.

Hi and thanks for your nice reply.

I\'m , trying to keep an open mind about things and this \"game\" aswell. And as said this looks very good from the \"first tryout\" point of view.

I did a fair share of reading about other peoples\' experiences and those faqs and all before starting and during playing. I find those posts very informative and helpful, besides I met nice people in the game that helped me get going.

And sure this game is not perfect, but nobody can\'t expect it to be at this point atleast. Non-commercial with \"amateurs\" making it... Huge workload etc.
Amateurs is not meant to be offensive in any way, just meaning that you don\'t do this as a work or so.

I would be glad to help. I just don\'t know what could I do to help. Possibly reporting bugs and stuff? But I don\'t know a thing about programming and that kind of stuff :)

I\'ll give feedback though, if that\'s what needed :)

I\'m not sure has this been considered.

I think that the whole house/castle thing could be done so that there would be some huge buildings, like castles with \"apartments\" in them. Not necessarily talking about hotel kind of thing. But the castle itself would be placed in a chosen spot for example, there would be a few design choices. (Like 5-10 different kind)
And before the building would commence the people would buy their rooms. (The cost would be related to roomcount. For example there would be ready desings for 3, 4 and 5 room complexes.) Or you could buy an apartment from the tower of the castle or so.

But the main point is that you wouldn\'t need to have that much of land space or even designing in the first place. Only that 5-10 different models from which people could choose. Probably it would could be guild related, so that different guilds could buy their own castle or so. Probably convient that way.

As for the building process there could be an own guild for that. A builders\' guild or so. The amount of workers and workhours and materials would be calculated and lets say a big castle would take around a week to build or so.

As for the furniture, that could also be done by the players in a way. They would get the materials and then sell the furnitures to the people with their new \"homes\".
The same about materials would apply to building of a castle also. The builders\' guild would get the materials and would get paid for the work.

I\'m pretty sure that I for one would be happy to just have an own space to use for storage and decoration. It wouldn\'t have to so customized as suggested here by some. Probably others could settle for \"less\" aswell.

So to clarify this a bit:
1. First people would need to decide to buy/build a castle. Probably a good number of people (An entire guild perhaps)
2. Then choose I spot for the castle. (You couldn\'t build anywhere you like, but many different options though)
3. Choosing the design.
4. Given the contract to the builders\' guild.
5. Building the castle.
6. Decorating using the guild that would make the furniture.

Not necessarily in that particular order in all of those, but the base structure would look something like that.

______
Related thing.
If someone would have to need to own his/her own house it would cost a huge amount of money. It would be done the same way as the castle though.

This could be the case for important people aswell. Leaders etc.

Ps. This system would only work if the people in builders\' and/or \"furniture\" guilds would be players who are really committed to play this game. Because if not, well, those castles would never get ready.

I just started playing this game today... Been playing around 5-10 hours straight now... And gotta say that this looks very promising.

The whole concept here. Possibilities... Everything...
And one very \"important\" shall we say, aspect, the whole damn thing is free.
Perhaps could replace the word important with something like nice/great/etc. :)

I\'m not gonna go to the technical stuff here... (Bugs, things not ready yet and all that) Not justified to start going through them, cos its still WIP and since its my first post too :)

I hope you guys keep up the good work. (Seen some very promising things fade away by difficulties and/or differencies) I\'m pretty sure though that you will succeed, because its been quite a long process already and this is coming along very nicely.

Just a few words about my game experience so far.
Talked with people.
Met a nice person who kindly directed/took my to the sewers.
Did some rat killing down there.
Also got killed by a rogue (didn\'t realize it was an enemy LOL)
Get out of DR with a help of another kind person.
Explored around the city and surroundings.
Sold stuff to the blacksmith guy, Harnquist and bought the rock pick from him.
Mined gold ore.
Hmm... That\'s about it... Quite nice experience so far ;)

I have to say that I see quite a few possibilities here already...  Not to mention the guilds aswell :)

Well, I\'m gonna cut this post here... Plenty more to say really, but I\'m happy if someone got as far as here.
