*looks up from my now 7 google docs on caparii lore* excuse you."don't reinvent the wheel"
this is the concept that runs in hollow world from it's lore to it's architecture.
the archetypes for the races are the clearest example of this as three races are lifted from LoTR (dwarves, elves and earth-spawn as uruks) and even the norvagen lore and caparii is both based on fictional archetypes...
If you want I could help, also, trade does go on, just not in depth.I agree with most posts here, and this is just a proposal. If something like this was to kick off, I would put a metric tonne of my effort ( and I'm sure other people would like to help as well ) to make this happen.
The whole reason for me making this post was because people were already arguing about stuff like trade and all that here. All I want to do is to try and remove that argument. Yes, this could possibly create new arguments with the community. It could also solve them.
See, a thing like this could possibly help the whole topic of trade, it could also damage the whole way trade works. Yet, without a system, I bet there will be another repeat of what happened with the KO DOLSH'BASH'LAVOYARD one day. It might not be for a while, but it would arise eventually.
erm... sorry, that was aimed at @Naelwyn as i thought he was dismissing this idea for the reason that it may or may not be similar to something else..*looks up from my now 7 google docs on caparii lore* excuse you.
^Just do it yourselves! Set up your own trade agreements, organise events with the pirates, etc. It's not difficult, an official system isn't really required, just make sure it makes sense. Only trade goods that your town can produce and doesn't need itself.
There's no need for staff involvement in this.
still think i'm gonna type some stuff up so there inst a "that guy/girl" who goes, "we have dwarves, so we made swords and mine stuff!" when there on flat land with no mine, just to be on the safe side, if anyone disagrees with this being needed, speak now or forever hold your peaces~.^
No ones stopping you! Heck, I'd totally get in on it IC.
If it looks super successful and could totally improve the server experience with some help from server administration, then you'd probably get 'staff support' to keep it running strong/make improvements (Not trying to imply the original creators would be discredited, no, they'd be left right center stage!). The implementation is probably best left up to the community, though
