Hey guys!
Sooo. This is a suggestion i've been chewing on for a while. My original plan was to post a bunch of threads like this at once-- but that's clearly not happening, so I'm just going to shoot them out here one at a time as they strike me.
BUT FOR THIS ONE. I NEED YOU!... To help me. Please.
Anyway, we'll get to that. First, i'll explain my idea.
We all like the hunting system. It's neat. I think it's neater than the way it existed in old clok in particular. It's not much, but it's cool the way it functions as now. We all obviously think it'll be even cooler when we can hunt for more things in more places.
Given that....
I think it would offer greater diversity to the hunting system if when you went to hunt, we had the option to hunt in a few different varying capacities. So, these are the hunting categories I think should exist out there when you try to hunt in various areas of the world.
Small Game: Rabbits, squirrels, moles, groundhogs, small things. and the chance for some small birds.
Large Game: Deer, elk, boars, forest cats, pigs, , and other sizeable critters that are tracked differently.
Exotic Game: Special things that are either unique to Aetgard (the game) or that are exceedingly dangerous. Fantasy stuff, or crazy interesting stuff like, say, a koalite. Or a big ol' gator.
Bird Hunting: Birds of all kinds, specifically to the exclusion of all other game.
I don't see the hypothetical options for the system working any differently than flavor messaging changes to indicate a different form of travelling and tracking when hunting. Really, the categories would just effect the results. If you hunted small game-- you'd get exclusively small game options. Large game, large. Etc. Etc.
Why do this?
A: Skinning practice thresholds. Birds could be the easiest, offering a little bit of experience for plucking the feathers and butchering the meat. Small game could be the next step, where you can practice with small skins, and get a little bit more meat, maybe the chance for a little sinew or bone. Large game being the next step, Exotic being the largest challenge.
B: Realism. Small game hunting is easier than hunting large game. Large game hunting is easier still than hunting exotic game. And bird hunting is far different than any of the other options-- you have to walk around and track in a different way.
C: World diversity. The world will feel much more alive with more critters in the miscellanious areas. On top of that, over time, it'll offer more opportunity for clothing, cooking, beast trophies, and more.
D: RP Opportunity! Hunting is fun, especially in groups. People would be able to scout around and see what they can find where, and offer advice on the best hunting practices and locations. It's just another loop of the game we could all lose ourselves in.
I said I needed your help, though. How can you help?
Give us your ideas for animals for all of these different categories. Not just ideas-- but descriptions for them. Proposed numbers, if that's your thing. Places in the world that they could exist, potentially. Different ideas for different hunting things altogether. I'm not a numbers guy. I can write descriptions all day-- but I know a lot of people out there are in the community and eager to help how they can. And this could be a fantastic opportunity for folks to leave their own little piece of themselves in the game to last on through the ages!
So, please give me your feedback. Even better, give me your critter suggestions. Give me color suggestions for their pelts. Give me descriptions for them, and potential things you could skin and butcher from their corpses. Give them sad, sad little eyes that make me feel bad for shooting them for their delicious livers. Tell me where they live, so I know where to find them, and close their sad, sad little eyes for them.
Thanks to everyone as usual! Hope this ends up being of interest!

Re: Suggestions for Hunting, and New Huntables!
I'm not sure how bird calls and other animal calls might play into the hunting system. I was thinking about the use of ability points, but that might be too heavy an investment. At any rate, it could open up another way of hunting along with baiting and trapping. Maybe it could just be its own ability that allows the player to lure various types of critters using calls or bait depending. Such tactics would require patience, but would have the added benefit of not wasting energy trying to track down prey.
Re: Suggestions for Hunting, and New Huntables!
Perhaps there could be specific bird call whistles of a limited quantity at a festival.

Re: Suggestions for Hunting, and New Huntables!
I don't have animal descriptions, cause I'm bad at this stuff, but hunting gators or snakes near the swampy areas would be cool.
But I really bumped this topic because I wanted to add that making it so that butchering gave skinning practice (less than actually skinning) would be awesome. Butchering is hard to do, properly. Especially field butchering.
