Gossip/notices to inform achievements/unlockables?

#1 Post by bio_hazard »

How about having either a notice board or a tavern with a rumors/gossip function to give a hint for some of the unlockable classes? I don't think the hints would have to be totally spoily, but enough to give a hint of where to go wander around in the wilderness, or additionally/alternatively, what hidden classes are available.

I think that this is actually a really good idea and time to implement this feature. Two out of four of the towns that I've found have unused buildings; why not add this in? There's plenty to unlock now with multiple races, class categories and subclasses to really fill in the rumor mill. Obviously charge something like 0.1 gold or something per rumor, but I really think it would help everyone that doesn't troll the spoiler section.

Agreed. :) Maybe even rumors about artifacts and the like to get people really salivating.

and of course, since we cant be too nice, throw in a bunch of not really useful hints too like stuff regarding non-existant places or just advice to steer clear of Joe's eatery...

Hehe, I loved all the stuff about farming certain levels and gaining stupid massive rings of speed from the T2 gossip bars.
