Life is Feudal hypetrain.
« on: March 02, 2014, 12:41:30 pm »

Life is Feudal is hopefully going to be Wurm 2.0. It has the same idea as wurm, with tactical combat, and dynamic skills which can be trained by crafting or playing minigames.
 I'll come back and type more when i'm not on mobile, but theres a dev stream and interesting info here
http://lifeisfeudal.com/
check it out, yo.

To be fair it's a very strong disincentive for a lot of people. Why bother to build anything/train your character knowing you're gonna get ROFLstomped by some guy in a kingdom with a ton of gold and resources?

and to be fair again, it DOES look like they've taken steps to make sure the game isn't just a total murder-fest, and that if you at least belong to a village people can't just fuck with your stuff. However it all seems rather tentative to me, and I hope they lay out a strong plan to discourage random knights going around terrorizing the populace.

Those teeth look terrifying.

This game definitely piques my interest. The mini-games hopefully will make gathering things less boring than how Wurm Online did it.

I think I said it in one of the Wurm threads, but I'll say it again.

I want a game like Wurm, but Wurm isn't the game I want.

I'll have a look at this and hopefully it's something that will sate my desire for a less horrible Wurm-like

I mean, it's not super horrible, but it could be way better

By the way, Wurm runs in Java... Yeah

Wurm's also pretty grindy once you get past the initial stages. Have to spend hours (Literally, in a fair few cases) making things over and over in order to progress.

That's the biggest thing that I'm afraid of. I love Full PvP MMOs, but too many of them use heavy grinding as a way to slow people down and attempt to "balance" the game without actually looking at the game mechanics.

My favorite games in the genre have been ones that have allowed players to transition into a settlement management role; i.e. hiring NPCs to take care of the super repetitive mundane tasks at x% of the efficiency of a player. If you don't integrate management into the game and instead force players to sit in one spot grinding for 5 hours a day, the end result will be that the people who use bots/macros will rule the gameworld.

"Russian" isn't a race?

And then, they will be weaponized. Like everything in this game, from kittens to babies, everything is a potential device of murder.
So if baseless speculation is all we have, we might as well treat it like fact.
